Remember getting stuck on Vaati so I spent hours to kinstone side quests instead. Criminally underrated Zelda game.

[@cloroxhammer3289]

I actually never knew that the rolling invincibility frames were a glitch. I always thought it was a feature.

"I don't really get why the clones are in this game." "Well, if you think about it, you can get four clones; eventually thats what the Four Sword does." "You can pretend you're playing a better Zelda game. : ^)" "... Get off the couch."

I can’t wait to see the audience back at future GDQs..

[@Stavvy0]

It'll be nice! Hopefully next AGDQ

[@tpate123345]

I think next year things will really feel like normal again 💜

[@pedroscoponi4905]

Probably the most underrated Zelda game of all time? It's not the best but it's _really_ good

[@ArkinesVT]

Agreed. Capcom made a damn good Zelda

[@Dexuz]

@Bad Koala People love Twilight Princess.

[@mizzix]

Nah,thats spirit trains

[@RealGoogOogGaming]

Great game, best 2d Zelda I've ever played.

[@peterpeladon]

Not the best but definitely the most underrated.

[@Spacialvekter]

Ah, yes. I do so love a speedrun where walls are a suggestion.

[@michaeldubery3593]

As a young kid I got stuck in the swamp for like a year or something cos I didn't spot the floor markings that indicated where to bomb to get the mole mitts. I love this game :')

[@LEXOTANYL]

I know that I may be sound funny, but the magic think for me behind this game was that back then I wasn't speaking English and the only think I had was my imagination of how to solve the puzzle, what the story was trying to say me etc. Now I can understand the whole story, but believe it or not, I fall in love with this game cause of the way it opens your imagination.

[@yeetusvanitas9800]

Daruza That’s actually a really great story! I’m glad you were able to make the most of it. I think many people would become frustrated in that situation, but you found a way to make it magical

[@demothordregmen9419]

I played trough a link to the past in french while beeing german, i can relate xD

[@Gordengmr]

Minish cap is probably the first zelda i ever played growing up tbh.

[@NerfedFalcon]

The first GDQ run I ever watched live, and it was a heck of an experience. I didn't even know that Minish Cap *could* be broken this much, even though it's the only Zelda I've ever finished.

[@whitedarkness11756]

This is also the only Zelda game I've ever finished. Didn't even realize it was ending until the credits rolled, that's how into it I was ;P

[@Jaro_fmana]

This game is a masterpiece

[@xenobestx8423]

The best Zelda game in my opinion.

[@cortster12]

It's certainly up there.

[@YGOrochi]

@Xeno Best X I agree, for me personally if I had my top 10 they would be 1.Minish Cap 2.Wind Waker 3.Twilight Princess 4.A Link to the Past/Worlds 5.The Oracle Series 6.Skyward Sword 7.Links Awakening 8.Ocarina of Time 9.Breath of the Wild 10.Majoras Mask

[@jamesfield1674]

Never heard of it

[@ZachHenke]

Magmatic Miniatures This is the strangest list I have ever seen.

[@MOORE4U2]

I put Majora's ahead of this one, but this is probably my number two.

[@loddyx3367]

Well done with this speed run, the minish cap Is definitely my favourite Zelda game

[@ElizaSchreibman]

Such a good game, such a good run! I love minish cap so much; it was my intro to the series and I love it despite it's flaws. And my donation got read, so I was over the moon!!! 🥰

[@TheDarkneeess]

My favorite zelda. I remeber finishing it 6 times in a month. I will never get bored of minish cap.

[@Nitidus]

The colors in this game are so great and can easily be used in recent stuff

[@HeartlessKing1]

You guys are the best, in general and specifically.

[@Mohamedalielmomo]

God I played this game hundreds of times and I think I just only realized that the Ocarina music is the same as the flute music from Super Mario Bros. 3 ! Awesome run btw ^^

[@lollyblizowo4343]

First zelda I ever played. So sad I missed it live, but beautiful and hilareous run

[@DrMaoh]

I love the graphics of this game. And other GBA games and pixel art games in gneeral.

[@pearspeedruns]

It holds up really well

[@youngtoonfish6891]

Entertaining run, runner and couch 👌🏻 More of that please 😄

[@sungaming4603]

IMO Capcom makes the best handheld zeldas

[@funjunkyy]

Well... they made nearly all (older) hadheld zeldas.

[@ChrisHanline]

That Hatsune Miku pun did not go unappreciated. "Well be getting a hatsun. ...hat-sun." *silence*

Oh my gosh, ANOTHER one "Not to di-MINISH the TAS run."

[@ChrisHanline]

I appreciate these puns, and you should too.

[@parafaust6201]

I mean the hatsun one made me laugh hard

I love how It has Toon Link Sprites With OoT voice and aLttP gameplay

Best Zelda Game Change my mind

[@khaledgame]

This game is a masterpeice 20/20

[@deusxgamer]

Great run congrat

[@tsvtsvtsv]

editing the text boxes in game is such an underrated bit, i can't get enough of it lmao

[@legrandliseurtri7495]

25:30 Don't mind me, I'm just using this part as a guide. I found the place with the bean, the place with the green water stuff and the place where you need to plant those, but I just did not figure out how those elements have to be combined together. I gotta say, the game up until that point had been pretty straightforward, but this segment here is more complicated and convoluted than the whole first dungeon lol.

[@flaviosmartins]

I'm 46 yo and I simply love it. My place at heart is among peolpe who love games, music and all kinds of art.

[@Lowen264]

I played this game on my phone a few years ago. Nice to see it again. I really should play through it again.

[@kimemes]

What was with the hacked text? I get it was for comedic purposes but I've never seen someone do that sort of thing in a run

[@DizzerJoz]

You shouldn't undersell/diminish capcom for making only titles on the mini consoles, these are some of the best

[@genroynoisis6980]

diminish

[@Kryptnyt]

I wouldn't call it the best Zelda game, but it's the most adorable one

Hm. Vaati's transformation at 1:45:40 seems so familiar. Similar to Midna's transformation it looks like..

Fabulous Zelda. I love both the dungeons and the over world in this. Looking forward to seeing this game be totally ruined.

[@brobean5437]

How did he do the text change stuff? Is it just a mod where everything else is the same?

[@RespectThePep]

Volde Plays they played it on the Wii U virtual console so that’s probably it

[@mikeskydev]

Simple text edits through romhacking, then the modified ROM was injected into the Wii U version. We're working on a full game editor as mentioned at the end of the run.

[@WolfloreSchrodinger]

What is the Mazaal strat called????

[@elfpi55-bigB0O85]

The Legend of Zelda: The "Now would be a good time to read donations" Cap. This was my childhood zelda. It may not be a good zelda game, but it's special to me.

[@pearspeedruns]

It’s a great Zelda game

[@gamma2816]

People speedrun this game? Vaati you know... It's pretty Zelda-mly you see such an awesome game being run this fast... brings back memories... Links me back to the past... when I was playing Ocarina Of Time closing in on the Twilight of day in my couch... needless to say I had a harsh Awakening the next day... but it was worth it to go on an Adventure Of Link... you have to understand, this was back in the day when we didn't have Oracle Of Season passes... no... this was a game of the old Ages... A Legend... to this day me and my friends raise our Four Swords for these games... There is no Wind Waker that can blow me away this fandom! No, I will proudly keep my Spirit up for the right Tracks in my love for these games! To this day I look Skyward and dream of the next release! I will count the time with my Hourglass for the next time I'll see my favourite Triforce Heroes in action once more... The Majora-ty of you new gamers will not understand this... there's just no Link Between our Worlds... I'm still glad new Zelda games are released though... they are a breath of fresh air... a Breath Of Wild new game desing ideas. Ok I'll stop! Think I got all in the main series anyway. xD PS. I'm glad he got to the last boss and Minished him off... Can I get a Cap-a in chat? xD Ok I'm done for real now.

[@RowinMarkov]

Ugh the repeated pun, it had, deMinishing returns...

4:12 Quoooooooooo ? lol

1:41:26 How did he jump over that door

[@nicholasdaisyawesomeness1291]

There are specific positions, and a few frames, so that you're able to press left and the button for the jumping item, so that you can jump over the door, as that side of the door has no collision.

[@Nightshade-Aurora]

1:22:30 NOOO TFH IS NOT BAD

Just so you know ezlo is not the minish cap The cap that vaati has is the actual minish cap

FUCK YES WTF

Uhm, why is this in Japanese version?

[@QLTEQ]

Text is faster

[@Twilit_Gamer]

Also, the boss key skip in FoW supposedly doesn't work in the US version

[@Nicholas_Steel]

>Says Wii U version is basically the same thing >Game has severely dim colours and brightness... One good thing about the Wii U version is that unlike all of Nintendo's other consoles, you can rebind the controls to whatever you want almost!

[@TheGymSavant]

Nicholas Steel The colors were that dull on the GBA. The game was designed to be played without a backlight as the original GBA model did not have a backlight. Almost all GBA games look washy as a result

[@Leonarth5]

Thankfully there are 3 different color options in this game, so you can use a darker one for newer screens if you think that looks better, I prefer the "dark" option. Many games on the GBA have issues with colors because the original screen was terrible and devs tried to compensate, the Wii U VC isn't altering the colors in any way that I know of.

[@Rocky712_]

Wii U VC is very well known for it's weird, dark layer. Sadly, this destroys a little bit the atmosphere of many games.

[@pearspeedruns]

I believe you can now rebind controls on Switch too.
