The Legend of Zelda series of adventure games is usually considered one of the core titles for Nintendo systems. So, it is not surprising that the The Brothers Chaps have made lots of references in the Homestar Runner body of work to these games.
Appearances
- The House that Gave Sucky Treats — When the pumpkin is given to The Poopsmith, the "secret revealed" jingle from the series plays. It particularly comes from The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past.
- Email japanese cartoon — One of the "NES Endings" that can be seen at the end is from the original Legend of Zelda.
- Peasant's Quest — The save screen resembles the one from The Legend of Zelda.
- Stinkoman 20X6 features several Zelda references:
- My Benj resembles the Bit enemies in Zelda II: The Adventure of Link.
- Stlunko is similar to many video game bosses that consist of a mostly inactive head defended by two enormous disembodied hands. Such bosses are popular in the Zelda series — for example, Bongo-Bongo from Ocarina of Time, Gohdan from The Wind Waker, and Mazaal from The Minish Cap.
- Saargtsson is very similar in appearance and style to Moldorm from the Zelda series.
- Halloween Potion-ma-jig — Homsar is dressed as Tingle from The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. Like the character in which he is portraying, Homsar throws confetti and is also seen floating on a balloon. Homsar's line spoken here also refers to Tingle's selling of maps.
- Why Come Only One Girl? — "The Hurricane" never appeared because The Brothers Chaps were distracted by the new Legend of Zelda game. Homestar Runner responds to this with "Why, Ganondorf, why?!", and then captures Marzipan in a bottle similar to how Link does with faeries, while singing the "item received" jingle from the series.
- In the commentary, Mike and Matt agree that the Zelda game in question is probably The Wind Waker.
