    Honestly right here, shift the last one and this one then it's more correct cause the octorock from OoT is stationary like the enemy here, while the octorock shown here is not and moves around like the octoombas or however you spell it.

      @ToadToad7 5 лет назад +5

      Fair point man.
      But a lot of Wii U games got special Nintendo exclusive stuff, like Scribblenauts and Tekken, to try to get the edge over the competition, and give perks to the games on their console.

    This is the remnant of an idea for the game that was sadly left on the cutting room floor: when you created a blend in the Starbeans cafe, characters from other Nintendo games would come in to sample it. They even created sprites and dialog for them. I don't know why it was removed. The gifts were also more indicative of who would have given them:
    Greed Wallet: Wario's Gold (Wario)
    Bonus Ring: Gold RIng (Fox McCloud)
    Cobalt Necktie: UV Lamp (Captain Olimar)
    Power Grip: Energy Tank (Samus Aran)
    Excite Spring: Excite Spring (Excitebike racer)
    Great Force: Triforce (Link)
    The page for the game on The Cutting Room Floor has the unused sprites and dialogue.

    I think the 'familiar pose' reference would work better if the comparison was actually with the pose it's referencing. That 'get item' pose is based on the one from Wind Waker. That Link does the very same thing, from the 540 degree spin to holding up one hand. The jingle in the reference even sounds like it'd fit right into Wind Waker's audio aesthetic.
