*stares at Cassandra*
Link: HYAAAAAA!
Like looking in a mirror
ECW5320 It kinda is. Green clothes, Blonde hair, sword and shield. She was female Link before Linkle was even created.
Cassandra want join in super smash :)
I remember Link/Cassandra being a big ship back in the day. Don't know why, but it was certainly a thing.
😂😂😂
Link had the best voice acting in the entire game. Hands down!
StreetPassPrinceton hello so sorry to interrupt but I used to play this game I don't remember link being in it or is he a secret character
Gamecube version
Was kind of annoying to me tbh
Raphael was quite good too. I actually had the ps2 version because of the fact that Heihachi was in it and Tekken and Soulcalibur are the same continuity.
Hello. Nightmare has the same voice actor as him in the Japanese language setting.
I remember when Soul Calibur 2 had exclusive character based on the console you had. I went with the GC version strictly for Link lol
Wish I had that sort of privilege.
I only got to play the ps2 version...
Honestly, I rather have link on my ps2 please.
Ammy Shadows
To be fair, beating warriors from a past age using only your fists is a pretty badass thing to do.
@@ammyshadows3817 ps2 was SOO close to.getting Cloud from FF7...
I dreamed this would be the first fighting format match between cloud and link...not smash bros but this game
So link isn’t on the the Xbox one?
I thought for sure he'd be on the PS2 version when I got this back in high school. Nope all we got was Heihachi Mishima
11:18-Let's appreciate that Link was entirely ready to fight Raph barehanded before he gave Link the moment to ready himself.
Link is an underrated character in SoulCalibur 2.
2022 and I’m STILL mind blown that Link was really in this game, His move set was so nintendo and he had the best voice acting. Links biggest feature.
The graphics of Soul Calibur II also like a PS5 game for a game from 2003.
Seriously seeing Link twist people's arms like that is truly badass. Hope we get a new Soul Calibur on the Switch so we can possibly see Link return as a guest fighter!
EspioMetroidNano yes!!! yes!!! yes!!!!
EspioMetroidNano That would be amazing!
Best thing that would ever happen in my life
gaming entertainment doesn’t seem like 6 is coming to the switch any time soon, but hopefully it gets ported later on, or even a soul calibur 7 for all platforms!
Or maybe they will include one of the heroes from Fire Emblem.
What I like about the Soul Calibur incarnation of Link is that it shows that Link isn't just a guy who simply strafes around holding up his shield while waiting to strike at the right time, it shows that he is a well capable fighter who can fight against skillful swordsmen and fighters. The Hero of Time is more than just courage.
Austin Grider for real, peep that fucking arm twist move lmao XD and this 11:18
The hero of time has nothing to fear of those muppets, he is the best swordsman, also, is any of them saved the world from an nearly immortal fiend called Ganon ? No, they don't, Soul Edge is a joke compare to, it can be defeated by any sword, any weapon, no need to be legendary or blessed. Ganon can only be defeated by the Master Sword.
You mean the hero of rhyme.
ECW5320 No, that's me.
Ironically in an actual swordfight hiding behind your shield is basically what youll be doing for the entire duration.You an your opponent just prod at each other waiting for an opening. After all why wouldnt you?
Something about Link fighting Raphael in the crumbling remains of a cathedral with the main theme of The Legend of Zelda playing in the background feels so magical.
I know it’s awesome
@@nintendoplaystationandxbox1088still aged well even in 2024.
1:22, Defeat by arrow to the knee.
Son Goku Heck she raises that leg like "DUDE WHAT THE FUCK"
Reference to VenomExtreme :V
Roni Carlos64 Nope, it's Skyrim
Sorry, but Venom Extreme is a Brazilian channel that used to be very successful in playing Minecraft with mods, every time he picks up a bow and arrow and hits it, he says "Shot in the knee!" it was so famous in the old days, so I came to make this reference
Roni Carlos64 eu sei o venom cara só to falando q a original é do Skyrim
14:13 that exchange into the grab is beautiful
Imagine if they exchange it into Super Move.
This is so fucking cool to see link in another fighting game besides smash bro’s
"Watch quietly and learn"
Link: HIYAAA! SHAAAA!
They need to bring Link back.
and add Ganondorf or Zelda
With the popularity of Hyrule Warriors you would a fighter would be out.
If we ever get a switch port of SC6, I want Link playable.
KBM Sonic for switch version
Link and cloud with SC2 format that game would sell fast
Link was the character that wasnt allowed to be picked when i had tournaments with friends....
He was just too OP
That's freaking crazy. I heard he was the best.
Link wasn't considered that good. Idk what they were thinking
@@boryontotheleader2328That just happens a lot with games, I was with some friends playing ultimate and Kirby was banned because they thought he was OP. What causal players and competitive players consider good is so wildly different
@@magnej1520lmao same, my brothers HATE when i pick Dedede, even when its considered one of the worst.
@@boryontotheleader2328Yoshimitsu is quite better than Link.
at 7:02, they both fall off. Link walks to the edge, "Derp!" *falls off*
Link just wants to save her lol
11:27 if that theme doesn't get you hype playing as link, then nothing will!
Exactly
This rendition reminds me of the Great Bay stage theme in Melee.
I play like on arcade just to hear the music!
Best cameos of all time
Cassandra would have won, but she took an arrow to the knee.
Lmao!
+Harley Quinn Classic!
“AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH”
Cassandra whiterun guard confirmed
I was waiting for someone to make that joke. I just had to look 8 years into the past.
I can't believe that link got put in a non zelda game for once also link is voiced by his original voice actor from ocarina of time
Link was such a badass guest character
When i saw the Gamecube cover of this game, I thought it was another Zelda
i love Link's voice in this game he is voiced by his oot voice actor Nobuyuki HYama he is my fav voice for link because OOT is my fav Zelda game
Are you sure its the same person? They sound nothing alike.
He is just look it up. Weird but true i guess
@Marco Geson
And the voice of Yoshimitsu.
@@Wandervon It is the same person, but in SC2 they have changed the pitch a little bit to make it less deep and manly haha
Fujiko Takimoto is the person who does the voice acting for both Taki and young Link
Imagine being Ganon and you get killed several times by a screaming elf boy
When I first saw that link was in soul caliber, I was literally so flabbergasted, and the fact that it's oot link makes it so much more loveable and amazing
"VS Cassandra"
Link: *screams at her*
Hahahaha
HYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
First match. "Ah fair maiden I see we both favour the same weapon style"
Why is sc2 STILL so pretty?
Gamecube era was generally full of lovely looking games.
The graphics are from that era of video games where the graphics were awesome and timeless.
A great selection of bright colors.
Gamecube era games are sick they aged SOO well especially this game
I'd even wonder how long games like The Gamecube can last for so long before they get outdated I'd used to have them for my Wii and they worked so well .
14:44 I guess that's Hylian for "WTF?!"
Link being the guest character was why the GameCube version was the best selling version (and the best overall)
and then never ported the next games to a nintendo console wich sucks
still could have gotten link in the others or even FE Characters heck maybe even Xenoblade
@@charlescastillo9018Namco such a pussy, Even when they remake Soul calibur 2 with Heihachi and Spawn in the same Game, Huge L.
Hero of Time has been through some stuff.
I like to consider this canon for the Hero of Time. Sometime after Majoras Mask Link, grown up for real, is called by the master sword to find soul edge.
Being a PlayStation kid growing up, I had to settle for Heihachi. As much as I love Tekken, the idea of having Link and Spawn in the other versions made me jealous asf lol
And as the Hero of Time, Link played the "Song of Time" on his ocarina in order to whisk away back to Hyrule (unless he was playing Zelda's Lullaby).....
But hey, he sure is a fun guest character to play with for sure.
Oh the best one for sure
Oh, he's the best one.
The person playing kind of sux. Link has a plethora of moves in his arsenal this player is just using the same handful of moves. Still fun to watch overall
When you realize that Link, Yoshimitsu, and Nightmare share the same voice actor. 😳
Is Astaroth also has same VA as Link?
I remember seeing Link in Soul Calibur through a gaming magazine when I was a kid and I had no idea what SC was back then. I was all “YOOO what the heck game is this and why is Link in it?!”
One of the coolest days of my childhood.
That hapen to me in soul calibur in the psp, the one with kratos in it
@@jakealexander5503 And Fortnite, don't forget Fortnite...with Kratos dancing like an id10t.
I somehow just found out about this today and immediately came to this video. I wish i had known. I'd have been playing this like smash.
@@juancarlosaguilarromero7085 why are you talking about a shitty kids game? What has that got to do with Soul Calibur? Go play your fortnights and watch your Paw Patrols and Peppa Pigs, do not come back to this comments section and mention fortnight ever again, child.
Didn't one of the Soul Calibur games have Darth Vader in it?
Bought this game just for Link. It ended up becoming one of my favorite fighting games ever made.
It’s a hidden gem. Star fox assault is also a great time. Need to revisit these and see if they hold up to this day
Yes fr😭
Hero of Time is the best Link.
He is the TRUE Link.
That's a weird way to spell Hero of Wind.
Yuki Nitta No.
Yes.
Yeah he's also arguably the strongest
Link was just happy to help. That basically summarizes the ending of Arcade mode
I presume in this universe Ganon is dead (for now) so when Link went out to go find a new Adventure he found this tournament of Swordsman and thought "finally. a new challenge for me to test my skills" and he ended up saving the world in the process
Not dead, but sealed. Given this is Adult Link, taken place after defeating Ganon and its the Hero of Time. Where exactly it took place is beyond me. Its non canon so it didnt matter much.
Link in Soul Calibur 2 is imo, arguably the best guest character in a fighting game.
7:15 oh my god that dive was a perfect 10!
LMao the beginning with Link "Vs Cassandra" "HAAAA" goddamnit link
Cyberus Morphous “goddamnit link” LMao
This game felt more like a Zelda spin off game to me since I used to main Link.
Man, how hype would it have been if there was a side quest in one of the LoZ games where you find and keep Soul Calibur?
Beatie G that would be awesome!
Link has Soul Edge Complete. 💀
Link was so easily the best character in SC2. I'd call him the most OP if not for, you know, Talim.
Little Filipina girls armed with bladed tonfas kill me when I close my eyes. Every. Time.
Link actually was pretty garbage tier-wise (not that it mattered, since in tournaments they usually banned the guest fighters in SC2)
Ghetto Plant Link’s moves were pretty telegraphed
Where there ring outs in the Meta? I'd always go.for the throw....did pretty well with link
@@Matanumi That and the guest fighters were banned in tournaments anyways as far as I knew.
He defenitly has big hitboxes and a projectile but I don't know about the safety of his attacks.
Link fits right into the Soul Calibur universe. Looks like alot of fun to play Too bad i had to settle for the PS2 version with Heihachi growing up.
Too bad it should've been cloud over there...lame.guest character AND long ass load times
Nah, people who plays as link pissed me off too much
@@Matanumi really I play the ps2 version of SC2, I don’t remember the load times being long
Cloud from FFVII was almost going to be the PS2 guest.
i love how when links sees raphael hes like "hey" and when raphael tries to stab him hes like "what the fuck?"
Got to expect the unexpected
If this were canon to the LOZ timeline I imagine it would fit right after link defeats ganon in the adult timeline and is praised as a hero in hyrule
The best thing is that this means Link thinks in yells too
I miss these graphics :/
Another world he will go unthanked for saving.
They need to bring Link back to a Switch version of Soul Calibur. Bandai Namco and Nintendo are like best friends by co developing Smash, Pokemon Snap, and other Nintendo games.
awww before his fight with inferno link adjusts his tunic that's cute and funny
Link was so fun to play, and I love his moves. Honestly I miss having so many weapon options like in this game
Link vs Nightmare is the closest u will get to Link meeting Guy Shishioh
Link's ending is fuckin amazing especially with the great music, that shit almost makes me cry. Perfect.
The last battle just looks like the original battle field from Ocarina of Time minus Ganon!
This shit was dope when it happened, I think Iwata (or Miyamoto) at the time when it came out told Namco, "Link must win if he's to be in the game" which is why he's super OP, I remember this reveal leaked early in gaming forums which made Sony and Microsoft FURIOUS they later gave them Spawn and Heihachi as their exclusives late in development. I'll never know why 3 was PS2 exclusive, all I know is that it wouldve been cool to see another Nintendo rep in a future title (Maybe a Fire Emblem rep) , but it never happened as the series director left Namco after Soul Calibur 6.
This game needs to be ported on to the Nintendo Switch and it needs some online functionality. Anyone agree?
Dustin Nunn
Agreed
Also, it *HAS* to have link in it!
It's unlikely, but yeah.
YES!!!
Did u try netplay
That's my boy right there [Link]
***** lol
MAH BOI
😄
"My boy, this peace is what all true warriors strive for."
^Proceeds to smack the shit out of every fighter as the King sips from his chalic
It's funny that Yoshimitsu, Link and Nightmare all had the same voice...or at least Nightmare and Link did. Lol
His throw was so OP
J Boogie lmao which one?
I used it to cheap out on hard fights in the map sword quest mode.
Yeah, because it's so easy to get ring outs with that move.
Namco and Nintendo should've made an exclusive Zelda game together with every SCII character as bosses.
So it can be a bonus feature to Soul Calibur II.
If this links story In this game was canon to his story then that just makes the hero of time even more of a tragic hero
I always liked the music at 16:58. Childhood nostalgia right there
God I want a GameCube again just for this
Inferno seems to be one of Gannondorf's siblings.
"A faint echo of his ocarina was all that remained."
6:58 This got me laughing 😂😏😂
Same, lmao 😂
I first discovered this game back in 2013, around Easter actually. By far, one of coolest, most badass fighting games I have ever had the privilege of playing. God, I wish my Gamecube was working again.
I never played the GC version. I love that when he wins it's the Zelda finding treasure music.
I hope SoulCalibur 2 is brought to Switch, so we can finally get the definitive version with Link, Spawn and Heihachi all in one package.
i can't count how many times i played this game. still one of my best childhood games.
i wish i can see cloud and link in soul caliber....oh wait...nevermind.
I could’ve sworn he was able to throw bombs in this game or did the guy playing just didn’t throw any. Man this game brings back memories. Remember my cousin had the Xbox version with spawn and he wanted to switch consoles for a week just to play as link lol my mom did not approve. Oh how time flies 😅
yes he can throw bombs and even roll them
You know Link's fight against Ghirahim would have been a lot easier if Link could actually fight like this. Instead of trying to guess which way he was holding his hand....
+bob boberson i love Link he is my hero not to sound dumb but what system was this game out for i want to try & find it
Melanie Whitt
Link was the guest character in Soul Calibur 2 for the Gamecube only. Xbox and PS2 had their own guest characters but Link was Gamecube only.
thank you for telling me i was considering getting it & i needed to know what system it was for
Not the same link tho
That Link isnt the Hero of Time. Thats the First Hero.
This makes me want this on the Switch. You know, to play as Link.
Nightmare's death cry sounds a lot like Link's if you listen carefully.
Never prouder to be a GC owner
With Bandai Namco developing Smash Ultimate, maybe Nintendo could contract the SoulCalibur team to make a true Legend of Zelda fighting game.
they sould do a HD remaster and put this game on the switch. or grab the OG game and put it on the switch. i would buy it in a heartbeat!
They actually did an HD port for the PS3/360. From what I heard, it was a very poor job. I just went and bought the PS2 version instead since it was dirt cheap
There is an HD version, it’s just not on a Nintendo console yet
Can't wait.
Link fits so well id hate for them to release on switch without him. Hd remaster of soul caliber 2
I think the game looks good enough to not need a remaster. Just port the game and upscale it to HD like an emulator would.
Not gonna lie, Link Vs Inferno looks way more natural than any other character.
Probably because Link is used to destroy evil forces for a while, it isn't the case for others.
Yeah, because he fought and defeated Ganon so many times, as well as Majora's Mask, so Link in this moment must be like "Here we go again...".
The Hero of Time who possesses the Triforce of Courage will fearlessly face Inferno in a hellish looking arena.
So yes, its very fitting.
Soul Calibur 2 is still so epic.
Link and Nightmare's same voice reminds me of Joe Higashi from Fatal Fury/KOF.
Siegfried and Musamune Date from Samurai Warriors too
Funny how Link and Nightmare/Siegfried are BOTH left-handed.
In hindsight, it would have been amazing if they were able to add Ganondorf with his sword as well.
Link backstory is defeating a soul edge posesed ganondorf in hindsight, thats why he didnt appear
Worry not; I haven't played this in 5 years. Although I immediately got my skills back.
I never got to play this but I would legit buy it specifically to play as Link. I also heard he's the best character out of all three versions.
when you beat someone in a fighting game but you keep hitting them
Tekken :3
Add little salt
Insult to injury
6:55 "TALIM! My only love! I'm coming for youuuuuuu!!"
+Axel Voss ...huh?
I just bought Link's Soul Edge in Soulcalibur 2 and it is awesome. Soul Edge inflicts some serious damage. I just played the Extra Arcade mode as Link wielding Soul Edge and went through the whole Extra Arcade mode undefeated. I think Soul Edge is well worth the price of a bit of health.
Would have been funny if one of LInk's opening lines was "Well, excUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSE ME, princess"
I assume this is between Majora's Mask and Twilight Princess in the timeline, right?
When I first played 2 and saw Inferno with Soul Calibur, I thought he was imprisoning it so its power can't be used against him. But now that I know the true origin of the 'Holy Sword', I think he was trying to become complete once again, but the now opposite power wasn't melding well with it and actually did more harm than good.
Wow, Link can kick. WOW
Joseph Almero he can even jump
a which is portrayed by him being able to backflip.
WOW technology
Did u know he can breath too? :)
Have you seen the first two Smash games? He can kick there, too.
The fact that they took out the ability to make sound effects before a match kills me the fact that nintendo didn't get a 're release also baffles me I miss this game I played this for hours on in
I remember beatin all 70+ missions woth link. A difficult task esp the very hard missions but link was godly in this game
14:14
Link: "(I have outsmarted, your outsmarting!)"
Last night, I was thinking it'd be cool if the SC series could come up with a new concept. I was thinking Stone Blade. On the Edge Master mode, you collect Storm Stones each with the ability to give your sword the power to use an element dependant on the weather, for example, lightning abilities through a thunderstorm. Once you collect all Storm Stones, you can change the weather and use the elements as you please. The Soul Edge and Soul Calibur will still be in the game.
Also in arcade mode, the final boss will have all Storm Stones and use them against you.
The timeline where link stay as adult
11:25 soo epic😍
Imagine soul calibur on switch with guess character: link, marth and fiora.
