Guys this website is a scam, they've stolen information and scammed people out of their money many times. Please look up customer reviews of Instant Gaming :(

"I have obviously put a lot of hours into practicing this" 10 seconds in: "I can zoom with the Z button.?"

[@Cool-Vest]

*cough* *cough* Storm Trooper aim *cough**cough*

[@frknspacewizardbrett6044]

In fairness, I beat the entire game without ever knowing you could zoom in. Granted I was, like, 9, but still.

[@Mater9000]

I didnt know I needed Linkus wearing Links tunic while playing Links crossbow training in my life

[@aeriona626]

Linkception

[@Binkus_.]

He just needs that white shirt underneath that ss link wears

[@veryspecificchaosfox]

you know, i've never seen actual gameplay of Link's Crossbow Training in my life until now

[@Solomoncaesar]

Same!!!

[@DavrK]

Game was so much fun when I was a kid. Legit one of my favorite "Zelda" games at the time lmao

[@veryspecificchaosfox]

as a kid who was absolutely obsessed with twilight princess i'm sure i would've had fun with it too

[@heavenlything]

same💀💀

[@heavenlything]

it only existed as a concept in my mind until today

[@TheBlueArmageddon]

Damn, this game only has 11 records, with the 11th one being at 32.30 I think I found the best game to speedrun lol

[@Hannah66665]

I will always defend Link's Crossbow Training. It's a fun time. Clunky and not perfect, but fun.

[@theyawningari]

“You should be rewarded” lmao

[@havokchaoz1101]

Hey linkus, i am a 3 year fan at this point and i love watching your speed runs. I would love to see a full wind waker game cube speedrun guide, with a full showcase on how to increase button mash speed or how to do frame perfect glitches. I know its a big request but ever since i got covid 4 days ago ive had a big motivation to learn how to speedrun wind waker, and who better to learn from than the expert.

[@DKQuagmire]

i remember buying links crossbow training when it came out, and it came with the wii zapper, plastic add on thing. like how mario kart wii was bundled with a plastic steering wheel, for playing with the wii remote. i don't remember ever completing it (i got through most of the game). i just remember that i thought it was a bad game.

I have found my favorite KZbin channel!!! Thank you for uploading!

[@tattertot8259]

Now I just need a saving Marin from being trapped as a seagull forever speedrun .

[@tomdekler9280]

my mind's still stuck on Link's Crossbow Training so I was musing on crossbow link running around on Koholint and mowing down hordes of seagulls.

[@Dugaru327]

First time already laughing at 0:00

[@darkravon8061]

Nice video why don't try to have every Platinum medals on this game a little challenge for you ;)

[@imeralvarez5]

Nice, really enjoy the whole content!

[@gumgumbackup]

wait how do you even speedrun this? isn’t there just a countdown? how is there timesave besides menus?

[@ShamanJeeves]

You do get extra time for hitting certain enemies or targets, so in theory, if you could hit the required score while avoiding as many time bonuses as possible you could shave a little time. Other than that, though, it looks like it mostly comes down to menuing and how fast you can kill the boss.

[@averywinters6018]

I think you would also want to manage your score so you never get any medals in order to avoid the fanfare

[@enbnuuy]

Nobody will be able to say "first" on here bc linkus comments on his own video before it's even released 😭

[@twilight3463]

They will say second tho

[@DougSalad]

First.

[@tjeerdtrekkie1030]

"The zapper makes you better you can not play without it" Me who got al platinum medals without using, let alone owning the thing: You were saying?

[@luk33t4rt8]

Random fact, apparently the world record for this game's score is 83 930, by Michael Estep (USA) (reported by Guinness World Records)

[@nottestellata5201]

It’s sad if you think that in my childhood i received this game and never Twilight Princess

[@Noyuh]

the goat has uploaded🐐

[@jordanlamphier5534]

i used to be SOOOOO GOOOOD at this game it’s all me and my cousin played on the wii 😂

[@cuddlequeen3225]

Best shooter in the twilight princess series.

[@Ontarianmm]

I remember this one...

[@electricgaming2669]

Him: says he dud good on kakariko with 20k Me:getting 56k and saying thats bad on my first try💀💀

[@twilight3463]

I never knew that this game had speedruns

[@RealPendragon]

Everything has, but here it's somewhat boring as it's 95% Autoscrollers

[@Nico-hk8eq]

OH MY GOD PEOPLE SPEED RUN THIS?? AND AT THIS TIME STILL?? :DDDDDD

[@kylerrhys8733]

"the swedish world record" ... you mean the swedish national record? 😅

[@MyPupTobi]

Good thumbnail

[@andrewp6387]

this was quite an interesting game

[@Lyle_Plays]

SWEDISH WORLD RECORD I'M PAAAGGINGGGGG

[@gabolayv]

8:53 osu player be like

[@A_G_Benson]

Who is “Chad” and why does Linkus always call him out?

[@velvetbutterfly]

I'm certain you're only mocking his accent but on the off chance you're being genuine he is saying "chat" in reference to the people watching his stream and chatting in the window to the side

[@blakebramwell740]

[@blakebramwell740]

first??

[@sandwich4186]

First

[@goosse_]

First Not to be douchey just felt compulsive to say first

[@whtquake]

I remember when this game first came out my parents got super obsessed with it, they would send us to bed early and then proceed to play it all night, they both ended up getting platinum on every level.

[@millionshadesofdarkness2165]

That was my parents back in the day with crash bandicoot games on the ps1.😂

[@spyros2944]

YOUR PARENTS ARE COOL

[@aeriona626]

Dude, you parents are awesome lmao

[@SeaCryptWeave]

im ancient 😭

[@lukemagnotta7338]

Yes, THAT’S why they sent you to bed early

[@yas2ne19]

first

[@sasoriharuno2898]

I played Link's Crossbow Training before I even knew what Zelda was so when I got my very first and favorite zelda game (Twilight Princess), I just kept looking at all of the areas and enemies and going "Oh hey I remember this from the 4th Mission!".

[@maxb2000]

what was Zelda?

[@lucalopez9604]

I really like how Linkus went from not being very excited about the game to having so much fun by the end.

[@pitsa5491]

the game is underated

[@mcbanana1473]

10:28 Linus got more hype than he ever has for an actual zelda speedrun lol

[@starsellenova3443]

The Link cosplay it's the cherry on the top. Amazing

[@LunaticJ]

I somehow forget this game exists although there's several copies on sale for 99 cents at my local game store

[@tjeerdtrekkie1030]

Im not here to brag or bully but.... can I finally say that I'm better at a Zelda game then Linkus is..? 😂😂

[@Dalynx09]

Link's Crossbow Training is the best ever Zelda Game in the world, prove me wrong.

[@velvetbutterfly]

Minish Cap exists

[@Dalynx09]

@@velvetbutterfly It's the best ever Zelda Game, you just don't understand it

[@tokeivo]

Evidence that you're wrong: 1) The title: It's not a "Zelda" game - what even is a zelda? 2) The title: It's not a game, it's training. 3) The size of the world: The world is a pretty big place. Have you checked yourself, that no better game is out there? What about that corner on that street in Malaysia, did you check there? D) The word "ever": Did you check in the past to see if there was a better game back then? No? Thought so! (Pfft, everyone can check the future... noob) 5) Is it even on pc yet? How good could it actually be if no port or remake exist? 5.2) Is Navi even in it? Boom, proven wrong!

[@Dalynx09]

@@tokeivo This was supposed to be a joke not a serious statement lmfao, I've obviously never played it

[@tokeivo]

@@Dalynx09 If you take a very careful look at my "evidence" you might also spot that it was a joke. Like... Since when was Navi a sign of a good game?!

[@missbeckykmusic]

Lmao this thumbnail! Love this vid, was hilarious to see it live!!

[@soulslayer434]

I was sick af at this game as a kid. Tried it like 8 years ago and was complete asa at it lol

[@SirBoomster]

Didn't expect this game to be played and speed ran! Ahaha Not complaining though it was fun to watch

[@JJShankles]

Needs more super swim to get a faster time

[@ThatOneCodGuy]

Already looking at you, I'm gonna enjoy this video lol

[@RaynmanPlays]

My guy, if you learned how to hold a gun from anything other than 60's movies and TV shows, you might have done better.

[@cheesebslls6203]

Sir that is a Wii remote

[@dalitas]

gerudo link cosplay next?

[@mjukis89]

Maybe time to pickup the game again and beat your time + score xD And claim the Swedish record!

[@joeypel1820]

Loved the outfit

[@traviscunningham7062]

I have that outfit.

[@thezedman1828]

just commenting so the algorithm likes the video more 👍

[@Elfos64]

You call this speedrunning? I thought Speedrunning was finding the most efficient way to beat the game. You might have technically unlocked and played all the levels, but I think it only counts as proper completion if you get Platinum rank in every level, which requires an average of about 30,000 per stage. Also, the bomb arrows have been in the game since the beginning, you just never bothered to figure it out, and you barely used the Hawkeye zoom.

[@fagangirls387]

other than the liam triforce retrospective i have never seen links crossbow training in action also nice costume linkus

[@piplup10203854]

COPIUM I believe you linkus when you said you put a lot of practice in for this run 🫠
