Can we take a moment to talk about and appreciate the ACCURACY of Link’s hair in this?? I’ve seen a lot of cosplays of that specific hair style on Link but this one is still the most spot on I’ve seen.
that's what happens when Nintendo is actively interested and involved in whatever their characters show in. There's an anecdote that for Wreck-It Ralph, they reached out to Pixar saying "Bowser should hold his cup of tea like this!" and provided extensive reference notes after they saw the bad guys anonymous meetings when they were making the movie. So they likely reached out to the producers with extensive notes on how Link's hair and clothes look like (like the triforce belt-buckle) before they accepted that the comercial was good enough to air.
Probably helps that this was shot in a studio where each shot of Link could have been carefully crafted between cuts, versus some cosplayer at a sweaty convention getting their hair matted to their face and blown around by wind. It's not an easy haircut to maintain, which is why it looks so conventionally attractive.
The movie needs to look like this, including the dancing, needs to incorporate the "excuuuuuse meee, Princess!" from the Mario Super Show Zelda cartoon, and they need to get a guy randomly yelling "Zelda!" like the US commercial for the original Legend of Zelda for NES.
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past is last time we will our world 🌎 is Nintendo SNES version is awesome 😎 now I Amazing 😉 has always become an epic sequel of the series adaptation often produced between characters (The Legend of Zelda) has game those walls real pain too much forever after.
Well sir who commented 3 years ago its a ancient arrow from a game that released 2 years after you commented that theblegend of zelda breath of the wild
Ya if you know Thomas Game Docs (if you don’t look him up now) he researches stuff like that and makes videos about it. It would be awesome if he did that!
Apparently there is a japanese magazine that covers some behind the scene for this commercial in the form of a comic. But it was fully written in japanese. Hopefully someone would translate the comic in english...
I know everyone is losing it over the amazing song and choreography, but can we give some props to th costume an set designer. The practical effects look like they were ripped right out of a new hope
In Japan, A Link to the Past was called Triforce of the Gods, and also in Japan, A Link Between Worlds is called Triforce of the Gods II, so it would've been fitting
The ad blockers I use are pretty much fail-proof on RUclips. I can't remember the last time an ad got through (except for those rare occasions where I restart my browser and a RUclips video starts playing before my add-ons are fully loaded). I can understand choosing to watch them for subs that you like though.
This trailer is actually really awesome-it’s super fun and exciting while at the same time doesn’t take itself too seriously. And that walk at 1:00 is the business, that’s like the ghost dance in Luigi’s Mansion 3-so cool. That walk could be a taunt in Smash for Chrom, or for Full-Suit Samus actually, and it would work well with Falco too, and also with Min Min, and Ganondorf, and probably both Cloud and Sephiroth too.
Here's the actual English translation of the song... It’s coming, coming, The Legend of Zelda It’s coming, coming, coming, coming, finally coming This adventure is gorgeous! Soon you too will be able to experience the realism This one’s a tough one Puzzle-solving action with amazing graphics You’ll get caught up without getting confused It’s for the Super Famicom, of course Watch out! It’s here! Go, Link! A fight to the death before you know it Zelda’s pinnacle is tonight Super Famicom - The Legend of Zelda It’s coming, coming, coming, coming, finally coming!
I’m not even that big of a Zelda fan, and I love this. It’s so funky and addictive, and I love the dances and cosplay work here. I really wish there was a full version.
This very good really captures the meaning of Zelda unlike the US The Japanese Nintendo commercials did it right even back in the day The Americans didn't know how to advertise something like Kirby Stereotypically Japanese commercials are really really weird but some of these Nintendo commercials from Japan really captured the source material
WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THIS!!!!! I LOVE THE SONG, THE MUSIC, THE ACTORS AND MOST OF ALL THE DANCE. I know the entire song and almost the dance like DUDE NINTENDO I'LL DO THIS DANCE ON LIVE TV IN RETURN OF A ZELDA MOVIE WHERE THIS IS BEING SEEN IN THE END CREDITS
I would love to see the meeting where this got hashed out. “Yeah I need expensive costumes, props and sets and some computer graphics oh and some dancers.” “Done here’s the check”
This commercial shows off Agahnim, Ganon, the new spin attack, and the Quake Medallion. Pretty good job putting those references into a live action commercial
"Oh shit, It's Ganon! What do we do?!"
"WE DANCE!"
because the dance defeat the evilness. ù.ù
antobella2 Well, if playing instruments or randomly swinging a stick in the air to an invisible chorus can defeat the evilness, why can't dance?
Touché
ShinyGoldBacon XD
...keeep dancing...just keep dancing...
Man it sucks that you got to watch an ad just to watch a commercial.
Hunter Wynn Not if you have adblock :D
SuperWizardMagic I was wondering why I haven't seen a youtube ad in over a year..
Puncakes How do you get adblock?
The Scorpion The Chromestore has a few. Here's a link to one: chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/adblock-for-youtube/cmedhionkhpnakcndndgjdbohmhepckk
The Scorpion If you are using Firefox or Iceweasel you will get adblock here:
addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/adblock-plus/
I love how Ganon is just about to crush them but reels back at their intense dance moves. He's like, "Did I just get served?"
I think he legally owes them rupees
He got F'd in the A.
Just like in the game
I can't believe they predicted Cadence of Hyrule
Omfg lol
It's coming, coming, finally coming!
And Morshu, judging by the glorious mustache of the guy directly behind and to the left hand side of Link.
I’m a Morshipper (Morshu Worshipper).
WhOs CaNdIcE?
Wait who’s is Candice?

@@PinkManGuy and Link is a girl in this
@@yourmum69_420 women's hair doesn't defy the wind. Definitely helps with finding someone with the natural hair to avoid wig usage, though.
Quality control
And so tells the story of how Link fought and defeated Ganon...using the power of funk!
Best comment of all time 😂👍
A Legendary tale that I will tell my children someday
A funk to the past?
I feel like I'm watching a Japanese version of Thriller. And strangely enough, im 100% okay with it.
Trey Owen , DANG IT; you stole my comment. lol
@@frankbrislin4378 thats a coincidence. Lol
Trey Owen , Of course it is; I was kidding. Note the "lol".
Same
it’s very similar to the formation of rhythm nation by janet jackson
They really should have the cast recreate this for the credits of the upcoming movie
I Just Came To Read The Comments
Heck yes!
If the Mario Movie can get the Super Show opening song, the Zelda Movie should get this music.
If the live action zelda movie doesn’t look like this I’m not seeing it
FR
This reminds me of the original Mario movie
just add this for the credits
The movie needs to look like this, including the dancing, needs to incorporate the "excuuuuuse meee, Princess!" from the Mario Super Show Zelda cartoon, and they need to get a guy randomly yelling "Zelda!" like the US commercial for the original Legend of Zelda for NES.
Dont worry... it's 2024. It will.
Missed Opportunity to remake this commercial for Cadence of Hyrule
they had a chance and they rejected it :/
nice pfp of my wife
They used a remixed version of this song for ALBW Japanese trailer iirc. Pretty nice nod considering how ALBW is titled ALTTP2 in JP.
@@dadangsudadang5963 it’s Triforce of the Gods 2 in Japan.
@@TwilightLink77 yeah, that's why I said ALttP2.
Why does no one ever dance this dance at anime conventions?
Because no one is cultured
I shall attempt
let me just get a thing called friends and motivation lmao
ngl this trailer is cringey but the dance aint that bad
I think because it was only in japan and noone remembers seeing this
Breath of the Wild looks pretty good
hell ya
this is the sequel
sure
Hmmmm🤔🤔🤔
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past is last time we will our world 🌎 is Nintendo SNES version is awesome 😎 now I Amazing 😉 has always become an epic sequel of the series adaptation often produced between characters (The Legend of Zelda) has game those walls real pain too much forever after.
Links Final Smash confirmed for Smash 5
Make it happen nintendo
But what if it's a port?
Sorry dude you get a boring arrow attack
Sorry my guy i seen this comment three years ago and all we got was a arrow thing
Well sir who commented 3 years ago its a ancient arrow from a game that released 2 years after you commented that theblegend of zelda breath of the wild
I want a documentary on how this was thought up, produced and received. I want to know where all of these people are now. I absolutely love this.
Ya if you know Thomas Game Docs (if you don’t look him up now) he researches stuff like that and makes videos about it. It would be awesome if he did that!
I wonder what the set was reused from
Apparently there is a japanese magazine that covers some behind the scene for this commercial in the form of a comic.
But it was fully written in japanese. Hopefully someone would translate the comic in english...
Absolutely this
What I would PAY to have an original copy of this to watch in a higher quality.
I know everyone is losing it over the amazing song and choreography, but can we give some props to th costume an set designer. The practical effects look like they were ripped right out of a new hope
I still think there should've been a remake of this commercial for A Link Between Worlds.
It would've been so fitting.
At least Japan had the Updated version for a link between worlds
Brian TheFireLord Are you talking about how they revamped the lyrics to fit "A Link Between Worlds"?
ruclips.net/video/FIRPubOBJ8k/видео.html
Yeah, I mean, Zelda looks more like Hilda here anyway so why not :-)
In Japan, A Link to the Past was called Triforce of the Gods, and also in Japan, A Link Between Worlds is called Triforce of the Gods II, so it would've been fitting
It. Never. Gets. Old.
Well excuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuse me princess!
The sarcasm detectors are off the charts, gloivan
Nostalgia Critic
Yeah,excuuuuuuuuuuse me,princess.
Can't believe the post credits scene was already leaked
Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Bollywood
I believe I speak for everyone when I say I would watch the ever loving shit outta a Legend of Zelda Bollywood movie
@@DarkBlader88 Damn right.
A Link to Tokyo
Very fitting considering LoZ's currency.
Those are some sick moves, especially at 0:20 where they all move forward without moving much - the person playing Link did that flawlessly, SUGOI
Dance expert reacts to Japanese commercial? :D
did you know that link is played by a girl in this commercial
You know that feeling when your forced to watched an entire ad commercial just to watch a commercial?
+Spidertendo 64 haha ikr
People still use the internet without an ad blocker nowadays? Wow...
yes I do know how that feels cuz it happens to me every time (well most of the time)
symphony137 I want my subs to get money plus I know Google will make a way to make ads play even with an ad blocker.
The ad blockers I use are pretty much fail-proof on RUclips. I can't remember the last time an ad got through (except for those rare occasions where I restart my browser and a RUclips video starts playing before my add-ons are fully loaded).
I can understand choosing to watch them for subs that you like though.
Why cant we have more commercials like these?! I would actually consider watching them then.
I want more commercials like this too, babeh.
(I love your Profile pic by the way)
what I want is a new season of space dandy
Agito Cadet I wish it could never end....
SPACE DANDY.
BEST.
SHOW.
EVER.
IdealIdeas100 That would be Dandy.
if nintendo were smart they'd make this the live action movie just longer
my psychologist: dreams have a meaning
My dreams:
They should remake this commercial.
they did for Link between worlds
Haruhi Suzumiya only the song tho, would love the dance too haha!
New TOTK commercial proposition???
That is still the best commercial to walk on the face of the earth!
That comment I can agree on. Commercials these days are bullshit.
agreed.
It's good, but to me the Nutri-Grain ad is unbeatable.
Walk on the earth? Don't you mean,DANCE on the earth?
TheloyalArcanine got that right it's my favorite Zelda game commercial
I'm learning these moves so I can go clubbing
John Yu that's how you get the ladies
Let's do this thing bro. I'm ready to hit the club's and show these hoes.
So tfti
THIS!
That's how to attract a Zelda fan girl ;)
Ok nobody’s talking about how genuinely impressive that Ganon puppet is. It looks great for its time
It looks like it was designed with the Rancor puppet from Return Of The Jedi in mind.
Yeah right, it's really impressive, this whole set could have had so much potential for a really great fight scene against ganon or something
Cadence of Hyrule: Crypt of the Necrodancer feat. Legend of Zelda (2019)
i'm going to learn this Dance.
you know, just in case i need it for self defense >:3
So, I'm not the only person to think this...
I want to get a SHIT TON of people to do this dance with me ^^
Say some Ganon is dissin' yo fly Zelda, ya just give 'em one of these.
*dance in video*
That's funny! Lol 😂😆 Btw awesome profile picture man! 😎👍❤💗💕💯
Before RUclips, I was watching this on loop on Gametrailers
Ah the 90s...
Giordan Diodato Better times.
before they messed up Sanik.
1:02 "oh no! it's Ganon! Let's show him our power of dancing!!"
Nintendo went so hard in marketing this game, props to the folks dancing in full costume and not missing a beat
This trailer is actually really awesome-it’s super fun and exciting while at the same time doesn’t take itself too seriously. And that walk at 1:00 is the business, that’s like the ghost dance in Luigi’s Mansion 3-so cool. That walk could be a taunt in Smash for Chrom, or for Full-Suit Samus actually, and it would work well with Falco too, and also with Min Min, and Ganondorf, and probably both Cloud and Sephiroth too.
this needs to be a meme in my opinion
L yeah
L Yasss
A link to the past commercial but every time they [ Insert word ], [Insert action]
L it technically is it's just a lesser known meme
I found this commercial a couple of months ago and since then my friends have not stopped talking about it. They're glad I'm a geek lol
0:38 "I'm NOT Zelda!" lol
it sounds like anime engrish, lol...
***** what's that mean?
"Abunai Detta" in English?
***** ohh! Lol thanks.
***** Awesome! Thanks! :D
I could totally get down with that beat and dance.
Me too....its cool
I come back here at least once a month. I first saw this video seven years ago. This is just such a bop.
Who would have thought Cadence of Hyrule would get another announcement this long after the original reveal!
Linkel Jackson
The Chosen King of pop
Here's the actual English translation of the song...
It’s coming, coming, The Legend of Zelda
It’s coming, coming, coming, coming, finally coming
This adventure is gorgeous!
Soon you too will be able to experience the realism
This one’s a tough one
Puzzle-solving action with amazing graphics
You’ll get caught up without getting confused
It’s for the Super Famicom, of course
Watch out! It’s here!
Go, Link!
A fight to the death before you know it
Zelda’s pinnacle is tonight
Super Famicom - The Legend of Zelda
It’s coming, coming, coming, coming, finally coming!
Dude, Link's look/costume is spot on
Strangely enough, I learned this dance routine years ago to impress a friend.
Did it work?
If they werent impressed, they aint worth having as a friend
This guy is the most devoted zelda fan on the face of the earth
Do you suppose we'll ever get a isolated release of this song?
It's honestly really good, we need an extended version.
There is a full version. The song is called "Game Boys" and was released by the group Scha Dara Parr. It's on RUclips. 😁
@@m.p.2534 I’ve been looking for literal years thank you??
ganon appears and I love how everyone is dancing gogogogo.....the music is so catchy oh man..thank you japan
yeah its like oh no hes going to kill us well better start dancing
Whenever Hestu says, "I must dance!" I picture this...
This is my favorite video on all of youtube I come back and rewatch it and smile every couple months for years.
The new trailer for the live action Legend of Zelda movie looks GREAT!! ❤😊❤
this is the only live action Zelda I want
This literally still slaps after 30 years, I'm genuinely surprised no one has revived it on tiktok
Ikrr like someone plz revive it 😂
Come tik tok you make the worst stuff ,make something good for a change.
lets hope someone makes an HD version since the 30th anniversary is in 2 days
Tiktok of all thing, really? Tiktok would just ruin it somehow.
CAN'T... STOP... WATCHING...NEED...TO..SEE IT AGAIN... PLEASE... HELP ME !
never stop!
This needs to be the intro for the Netflix series when it comes out
***** Either that or Nintendo dismissing everything that's said about them ever lol
What do you know? That baseless rumor was untrue.
finally getting a movie like this
This is probably one of the best commercials in history i wish people made commercials this creative now
This better be the template for the Zelda movie--dance battle between Link and Ganon FTW!
Perfectly cast Link and Zelda. I hope Netflix uses this for their TV intro.
I was kinda disappointed PBG's Weird Zelda commercials video didn't include this one. It was the first one to come to mind for me.
Me too!
Strawberryflavored same
Right?
Probably because it's Japan, a country that has normalized weirdness.
ZhangtheGreat And that's why I love'em!
They should remake this for the live action movie
This is one of the best video game commercials of all time
THIS OFFICIALLY MY FAVOURITE ADVERTISEMENT FOR A VIDEO GAME OF ALL TIME!!
This is how every Zelda commercial should be. And oh my gosh, Zeldas voice XD
I love how they didn’t use any footage from the game the dancing alone is enough to convince you to buy it
I’m not even that big of a Zelda fan, and I love this. It’s so funky and addictive, and I love the dances and cosplay work here. I really wish there was a full version.
I would have love to see these as a series and a movie, also watching them dance is awesome, specially Link.
Words cannot express my love for this.
Link is already my favorite gaming character, but now I love him even more.
This is absolutely so goted, like how has nobody tried recreating this?
This is the greatest commercial of all time. How did I not know this existed.
This commercial is awesome! The Daira (the big lizard dude) is my favorite. I miss these kinds of characters and aesthetics in Zelda games.
thats the 90s for ya!
What if LoZ just turned into a motion sensor dancing game once you reached the final boss?
This is the purest example of “fuck it why not”
They missed a HUGE opportunity to make a new commercial in this style for A Link Between Worlds, we'd still be talking about it
The dark fantasy film we never got.
Man, I remember my sister showing me this video quite a few years ago! I loved this commercial!
This amazing. All we need now is a full on The Legend of Zelda A Link to The Past Musical
this lines up with Thriller so perfectly, cant stop laughing
lol yeah
The new Crypt of the Necrodancer × Legend of Zelda game looks awesome.
As strange as this was it was actually pretty good. It would have made me want the game even more if it aired where I lived
Ghirahim I bet would be down with this.
Agreed
The Triforce of Funk still remains supreme 30+ years later
This trailer look realy good! Morbius producer have done a realy good job! Cant wait for the Movie!
The new zelda movie looks promising.
I love Cadence of Hyrule.
This very good really captures the meaning of Zelda unlike the US
The Japanese Nintendo commercials did it right even back in the day
The Americans didn't know how to advertise something like Kirby
Stereotypically Japanese commercials are really really weird but some of these Nintendo commercials from Japan really captured the source material
Hero Of Time? Hero Of Winds? Hero Of Twilight? No thank you. I'm into the Hero Of Groove.
Imagine Illumination doing a Zelda movie and putting this
if the zelda movie doesn’t look exactly like this i ain’t watchin it
the triforce of power is NOTHING compared to the power of dance 💃🏼 lool
I can't believe they leaked Cadence of Hyrule 28 years before it was announced.
WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THIS!!!!! I LOVE THE SONG, THE MUSIC, THE ACTORS AND MOST OF ALL THE DANCE. I know the entire song and almost the dance like DUDE NINTENDO I'LL DO THIS DANCE ON LIVE TV IN RETURN OF A ZELDA MOVIE WHERE THIS IS BEING SEEN IN THE END CREDITS
I would love to see the meeting where this got hashed out.
“Yeah I need expensive costumes, props and sets and some computer graphics oh and some dancers.”
“Done here’s the check”
I remembered this and I was not disappointed...
This commercial shows off Agahnim, Ganon, the new spin attack, and the Quake Medallion. Pretty good job putting those references into a live action commercial
1:01
- "How do we stop him!"
- "Dancing!"
I wish this commercial is longer
at first i thought "why?", now i'm dancing along the clip because "why not?"
Holy crap, the Twilight Princess character design is derived from this! 😮
For those who are wondering, the rappers are Scha Dara Parr and they're rapping a Zelda-specific rap remix of their song, Game Boy.
Absolutely amazing, going to check out Scha Dara Parr's discography.🌈
