Temple - History Behind Super Smash Bros. Melee

[MySonicvsshadow]

1 thing is bothering me...Why is it in the sky?

[KesterStudios]

man i hate this stage, what's so great about it in wi fi in Brawl

[thps48]

@KesterStudios It is boring, I agree. All it is is big, which is sadly enough for some. Explains RPGs and GTA though. ^_^;

[LameNameForSarah]

Um. It's not really loosely based on the Zelda II dungeons. I'm pretty sure they intended to make it this way. That is why they titled the stage "Hyrule Temple". It's not that subliminal.

[themarc16]

Its funny how LoZ characters are based off of OoT when Link has the same stance as the LoZ II Link

[BrazilianNutYT]

Not meaning to be rude in any way, but I find it funny how you talk about a lot of things most people wouldn't relate (such as the left side resembling the entrance of Zelda II's palaces and the Parthenon-like building in the background), but you don't talk about the music.

[Cheetah1251]

The race of Hyrule is called Hylian, not Hyrulian.

[TheDodoman3000]

So... at 6:04 through 6:14, it only takes 10 freaking seconds to defeat the biggest boss in the game... Couldn't they have made it... you know, a bit harder?

[KinggyEgg]

5:02 ! LOOK IT'S THE WHITEHOUSE BACK IN THE DAY!

[NERAKTAILLOW]

Great info. Interesting history on temple listening to Hyrule temple makes melee stage sound amazing VGM FTW

[DMetroneis]

Actually, the first instance of the united Triforce as the symbol we all know and love is at the very end of the Zelda 2 credits.

[MegaBowserFan]

Must be the Zelda 2 place, because the same music plays.

[3q89396]

this is pritty cool

[JediRobotKira]

dude, you forgot to mention the temple of time in the background..,i always thought it was called temple because of that

[LinkMarioSamus]

Hey CCD, what's your favorite part of Ocarina of Time?

[Gaudentic]

and the elevator from zelda II is in ocarina of time, at forest(?) Temple.

[Lucario582]

Look up the manual for details LOL!

[Lucario582]

Hyrule was mentioned in the instruction book.

[thezto]

ese video es el mas genial siiiiiiiiiiiii!!!

[XxkillezxX]

Sorry, but I have to say this. Zelda had a magical rod?

[darkrai723]

in the background, the temple of time can be seen, witch, in legend of zelda OoT, this is where link got the master sword and gets teleported into the future. this is a part you missed

[CrappyCaptureDevice]

Incorrect. I already compared the two before I made the video. They really don't look much alike.

[LinkMarioSamus]

@CrappyCaptureDevice Speaking of comparisons...

I know that I'm over four years late, but I JUST NOW realized that you did not make scale comparisons in this video!

[KevinVert]

What is this game 3:53

[mousefire777]

The second zelda game, zelda II

[Sk8ingShadow]

I wish they added the elivator in this stage. (obviously, some platform edges would need a slight change).

[TanakaUkyo]

you sir, have invoked alot of nostalgia within me!

[zeldarulesinbrawl]

I'm insulted. The language is not called Hyrulian, its called Hylian you monkey..!

[hellocrazy1]

looks like a old mario game

[naruhina2233]

Can anyone translate the Hylian for me?

[Harkz0r]

I KNEW I recognised that music from somewhere. So it was in Zelda II! I remember playing that game when I was 5 or 6 or something. It was hard as hell! I got to Death Valley and quit I think, lol...

[HeavenlyRa]

Dude, I couldn't even get passed the starting point! lol Kidding, but I couldn't even beat the first palace.

[rmdsonicz]

huh wun u look at it i can see it

[SuperLink64X2]

i totally see wat hes talking about here.

[ddylann123]

another similarity is that the 2 places musics are the same

[Tentenlaw]

Well, it may not affect the gameplay BUT it is good to know. It prevents us from becoming ignorant people who doesn't bother to know anything. :D

It is interesting to know stuff like this.

Crappy Capture Device: I never knew this. I am not much a Zelda gamer but you increased our (wilquina and I) knowledge. Thanks so much.

[LegendofZeldaMaster9]

i did not know about the Hylain text in the stage

[IAmNotAFunguy]

Temple was the biggest stage in Melee. It lost that rank in Brawl to New Pork City.

[Chepe328]

Any proof? First time I've ever heard, and I'd like to see!

[MyAccountsDisappear]

I remember seeing some odd platforms in the special movie in SSBM when it shows Zelda, those must have been it.

[masterstarfox]

i'ver got the american version of melee.and i saw that too on the peach video too.

[Frostkid92]

great vid. i just have one more question. why is the temple floating in the sky?

[MP3videos]

....a Preivew of Skyworld for Brawl?

[MP3videos]

And the temple in the background, IMO, Represents the Temple of time. If u look closely at the Temple, it has the same Stained glass window and in OoT.

[supermanadamio]

The language of Zelda is actually Hylian, not Hyrulian, just letting you know, but great vid, very informative!

[Musicmaiker]

lol. In a link to the past when the three triforces come together they form the nuclear/radiation sign before turning into the triforce symbol :P

[floooooooooooooooood]

you never mentioned how the palace music in links adventure is the same as the music in the temple stage.(zelda ii is the hardest zelda game that has ever existed and most probly always be but does anyone know that although it has the same link from the origenal, the zelda in zelda ii is a different person to the one in the origenal

[DullBones]

Actually, the Triforce symbol first appeared at the end of Zelda II. it shows up after the credits rolled by.

[calladuz]

I heard that you can actually translate Hylian into Japanese... (then to English if you wish)

[melkorandmilkshake]

yep, the instruction manual for "the wind waker" had a translator i remember

[ManosTheDJ]

OMG 3:32 reminds me pokemon ruby....

[superhelper15]

Sweet vid!

I think i might subscribe(:

please check & rate mine too.

[AnimeFreak4Cho]

oh god that freaking game was so hard..were he explains zelda's palace and stuff...once u died u had to start all over again from where the freaken princess slept...annoyed the heck outta me cus some of the places were really hard to get too X.X

[theKyuubiKunai]

zelda 2 and the temple both seemed to have similiar themes as well

[racl101]

I'm surprise he doesn't mention the music (being the most obvious give-away.)

Most of this stuff is pretty self explanatory for real Nintendo fans (who would be the target audience for this video ironically) but it still is pretty entertaining to watch.

[DullBones]

I think Hyrule was mention in the manual.

[Olitod]

i bet link was like "dammit!" when it said the princess could only be woken by...... the power of the triforce

[oxe161]

Yeah but every zelda fan knows thats the temple of time from ocarina of time on the far right, so we hardly need history on that. What I want to know is why the stage is over hyrule. Maybe nintendo did this to score kos better

[MetaKnightMan6195]

yea, i always wondered why the temple was floating mid-air. it still confuses me

[link1stheman]

hey! didnt you notice the temple of time in the back ground!!!!

at the far right.

[MikailCaboose]

i never thought of that. i always just connected it with the temple of time because it kinda reminded me of a cathedral/church wich was what the temple of time looked like (in bothe OoT and TP)

[falcolombardi69]

there is a random gate near the left bit of the stage where u can go down and up and there a gate there what has that got to do with anything

[DarkLink9393]

Well, there's something that you could say you missed, but you really didn't because it's beta. Anyway, there used to be a yellow platform the was shaped like the elevator in Zelda 2, but the only difference is probably the fact that the platforms were pillars. It's not that that needed to be mentioned because it was just old, deleted beta.

[Jeff0909090]

crappycapture note also the music in parapa palace, it is the same for Temple

[OmegaSandShark]

sorry, i couldnt read the end of the game at 00:12 when i beat it, i had a seizure

:P

[Qwirly]

lol I was watching a Wind Waker video and read one of the comments and it said that the hyrulian text there is some japanese writing O_O

[MOUPIMOUPI]

Also, you didn't mentioned the temple of time in the BG...

[MOUPIMOUPI]

MANY YEARS AGO PRINCE DARKNESS GANNON

[aquil37]

what?

[Oyiket]

Thats what the opening thing said

it wasnt a very good opening XD

[FranzGrrl]

I think the opening was like that because they didn't have enough technology back in 1986 to include all the necessary words. Like how the old man says, "DODONGO HATES SMOKE" or something...

[Oyiket]

Yea probly

[DarkLink9393]

What?

[pearpretty]

This Dark Link... Isn't it the same like in the Event Nr. 17 (I think so)...

[NikJ92]

At 2:52 how were you able to zoom in and move around the stage like that? Camera melee?

[deora2dude]

AR.

[masterstarfox]

did you use video inputs?

[antoniovelez98]

you forgot the temple of time

[armadilloboy24]

great video, but isn't the building on the right the temple of time from ocarina of time?

[daRaidas]

i believe it is..

[abcabcabc1290]

The "dungeons" in the first Legend of Zelda game were called "labyrinths" in the manual.

[FreakinLalo]

does anyone no if ganandorf and captain falcon are comin back

[elmerfuddsglue]

Ganondorf was confirmed in an interview

[warlocklink]

why wouldn't they...

[raddudeguy]

IA ADVENTURSOME EVEN A WORD?!

[ULraWTF]

Adventuresome? Yes. It is.

[MASTERSILVERX]

If link had both the triforce of wisdom and courge he would be invincble

[NintendoBoy64]

i heard there is going to be melee stage in brawl that might be minorly changed

(or majorly)

[Zarroc96]

Yes, Hyrule Temple is coming back in Brawl.

[thetacoboy69]

Is the theme coming back into brawl?

[EdElricBoy]

yes.

[DarknessDragon0X]

The SSBM Stage: Temple is back for Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Yesssss!) !!!

[dezmomo]

now we have 2 huge stages(including new prk city!) awesome! im majorly gettin brawl now!

[SullMaster86]

After today's stage update on Brawl, you were 100% correct in everything you said. Well done!

[a4finger]

wow nice video

btw i LOVE ocarina of time. Its my favorite game ver and I consider it to be the best game ever

[masterstarfox]

you should do a smash series like mine i'm making.won't tell you it's title until it come's out starfox and zelda and smash fans.

whoops!!

[darkpen]

you know, the hylian language is actually translatable into Japanese, which I'm sure could be translated into English. Perhaps the video could be updated with such information?

[CrappyCaptureDevice]

I've tried to translate that bit into Japanese, but some of the characters are just non-existent gibberish that aren't in Ocarina of Time's Hylian language, so there is no translation for it.

[RatherWatchThem]

You call us nitpicky when you explain why it's called temple, yet you spend half the video showing us what's on the side of the platforms?

[GaroTheShadow]

woaahh, very cool!

[PikminSoraFan]

Because whenever navi wanted his attention in OOT, she would yell: LINK!

[XxwagnerxX]

so. how many times habe link saved hyrule? and how would we know his name is link if it wasnt for SSB?

[JSeigal92]

Look in 5:18. It says "Link" as your (default, obviously) name. It's from the original Zelda, Btw. (Wow, I thought that Link's name was seen first in Zelda II)

[Goatmangads]

Its the default in all the games, Its in the game manuals that come with the actual games ("press A to make link slash his sword") and It's also kinda "pun'd" in "A LINK to the past"

[Monodi91]

Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, is the title of the game, The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the past its the sequel, etc.

[luiz3e7]

the song of the temple is one of 007

[MovingThroughKashmir]

Actually, the song that's played in the temple is a remixed version of a song from Zelda 2: Adventure of Link. It was a sidescroller and not a lot of people played it. :P So there.

[what8889]

dude 1:58 the shadow temple freaks the living shat outta me... especially its description in the gaming guide...

[GotenMaxwell]

I love your videos, but I hate how they all have a an abrupt ending to them.

[GameMusic3]

The biggest homage, which you didn't talk about, is that Hyrule Temple has Zelda 2 music.

[CrappyCaptureDevice]

Will be covering music in future videos.

[triforceofgaming101]

Did he just say, "Only for N64!"?

[OmniNero]

This was really interesting, and cool. Great job, although you ended the video kinda abrupt, if you don't mind me saying.

[sipmoyin]

This was extremely interesant, your videos are very consistent and informative, thank you very much!

[AxelFire11]

u for got the temple of time placed in the back ground >.> (ocarana of time) its to the top right... =/ sorry...

[racer927]

you know explaining loz stuff is easy if you used a gamecube rom called the zelda special edition disk

[DarkLink939393]

THAT'S WHY THE TEMPLE IS FLOATING IN THE AIR! I just realized why the temple is floating in mid air! it's because at the end of oot, after you beat Ganon, Zelda brings you in the sky and talks to you!

[MondoMole]

That's... lame.

Most likely it's floating because the stage is so huge. Being in the air there are more ways to die and be killed.

At the end of OoT, Zelda doesn't take a palace from Zelda II in the air just to talk to Link...

[superjipee]

How do you scroll the screen like this in Super Smash Bros ?

[goku8381]

camera mode.

[DarkLink939393]

yeah, I just realized the temple. that's why I came on. every thing's pretty much the same except that the size is a little different and the color was changed.

[login222222222222]

hey if u look at the text carefully, u can actually see that it is the same text normal and upsidedown.

[TidusWulf]

The text is translatable

if you look closely at Young links milk bottle for his trophy, it has hylian text. compare it to Japanese katakana and it looks like it could read RO N RO N MI RU KU (ron ron miruku or lon lon milk)

[JonathanSpenc]

Okay now all we need is a really big zelda fan(that can even READ hylian)to tell us what the letters spell on the smbm stage.

[250lespaul]

thier right thats the temple of time from ocarina of time where link gets the master sword

[Hilakos]

What about the fact that there appears to be the temple of time in the backround of the stage.

[HyperShadow410]

Cool. So it's from Zelda 2...I guess I never noticed. Zelda 2 was the worst Zelda ever (except for the early crap CD ones), so I nevr paid attention.

[ZohrraKa]

The CDi games don't count, they are not real LOZ games they just use the name apart from the fact they are called Legend of Zelda they are just pure crap.

[Omondii]

You forgot the music. The music is from the Zelda 2 palaces.

[bearmedal]

The land is specified as Hyrule in the first game's manual as well as the ending. It also calls the levels underground laberynths.

[kelphelp]

what about the back temple in the bacground it looks like the temple of time on 4:57. its on the right. its behind the platforms

[purepwnage007]

hey, in lv 1 was that boss aquamentas or something, i recognise him from oracle of seasons (im very sentimental about my oracle of seasons and ages save files...)

[ZohrraKa]

Yeah it's the same temple, the map and the boss, I've heard it's the same level from beginning to end.

[purepwnage007]

hey smartiepants ocorena should be ocarina

[muronomu]

Wow, some bg information on the SSBM levels. Now I can see and understand how each of these stages came to be and yes, the Temple story really surprised me as the first LoZ game I've ever played was A Link to the Past.

[Blastinus]

I don't think that adventuresome is a word.

[BlueBe7a]

i care.

[purepwnage007]

i dont

[ZohrraKa]

Yay for people who care. (I care too.)

[sonicpacker]

i noticed that!!!

[zangetsu602]

yea... no one cares

[Zirbling]

those words at the end i think is just random jibberish. I used a hylian dictionary and so far the letters are either not there or it doesn't make since

[CaPaRiCa]

You could read that text if its actually hylian, people have undecifred hylian for Ocarina of Time, Majora`s Mask and Twillight Princess, Ocarina of Time and Majora`s Mask hylian descends frm japanese, it shouldnt be hard to find a `hylia-to-english` convertor on google.

[Samsasrenjet]

It's definitely based on the Zelda 2 one. The music of the Temple stage is exclusive to Zelda 2 implying it is derived from that game.

[aido727]

in a Link to the Past (SNES) it came with an actual (paper, not in game) map that named all the significant places of the light world. These included palaces, dungeons and temples (the dark world also had names but not a map) =)

[Ganondork56]

Have you noticed that the cathedral Notre-Dame looking building in the back-right section of the stage, is the Temple of Time off of Ocarina of Time? While it mainly focuses on Zelda II, they added some OoT elements in it, also.

[MarvelroxDCsux]

Plus, the music is the same as the palaces in Zelda 2.

[Sheeptua]

I mean near donkey kong

[Monkeymanforever]

the music sounds the same from palace and temple from ssmb

[Sheeptua]

What about the elevator thing on the top left, where donkey kong was standing? It looks like a broken elevator, leading to the floor below.

[gusvirgen]

Nice research, I dont think much people from nintendo know this

[WiiwanttoBrawl]

I think the temple is sorta like the temple of time in OoT.

[paladinangelo]

Funny how you forgot to mention the blatantly obvious; they have the same song.

[CrappyCaptureDevice]

I didn't "forget" anything. Music will be a separate set of videos.

[paladinangelo]

Now that I will really be looking forward to!

[KiLlErVidEoMaDmAn]

well the writing on the temple level in SSBM really if you think about it wouldnt be anything else i mean they are in Hyrule, in the ooc they also had columns in the forest temple that would hold sumthin up what else could the platform in the beginning of the SSBM could be like a trial or sumthin to enter the temple like the forest temple again had a higher platform you had to hook shot up toalot that you explained could be found around ooc

[kyodonquazaxys]

notice the palace music from the adventure of link

[x14113]

The levels in the first Zelda are collectively known as the "Underworld," which is in contrast with the outdoor "Overworld". Each individual level was named according to its overall shape; the levels (in the first quest) are Eagle, Moon, Manji, Snake, Lizard, Dragon, Demon, Lion, and Death, in that order.

These videos have proven highly insightful. I look foward to your future efforts.

[andrielisilien]

lol... this brings back so many memories XD nice

[Roymoomoo]

Lol "thanks link your the -re- of hyrule

[starfaggot3]

wow. I never though abouth the buildings having a realtion to greek Parthenon

[silverlunar777]

this video is the best quality wise ^o^

[ChozoBoy]

I was surprised that you mentioned the elevator, but not the moving platform that was originally in this stage. You can see it in old footage, and that long in-game Smash video.

[zman84soad]

Just curious,do you have a link to that old video?

[sonic996]

This is probably the highest quality video I've ever watched on Youtube! Well done! Anyway, keep up the good work!

[MixiricA]

Holy crap! Do you own ALL the games you're comparing Smash Bros. to?

[guylol104]

I always wondered that... he`s a true Nintendo guy

I guess.

[JonathanSpenc]

Actually my best guess would be he did play them so he knows about that info. but he downloaded speed runs online to show the footage

[KrrAinagotable]

I never ever noticed the Parthenon up there...

[mariospidey64]

wow great vid!your uploading these ALOT faster and Im really impressed at the quality,first I thought "man this must've been rushed" but it actually came out pretty smooth except for the ending for a second I thought my computer froze,but other than that just great espacially the comparison between LoZ ll any way keep it up man your doing a great job

[THAMASTER94]

acctually it Hylian text, not Hyrulian:P

[Satoascorpion]

Dont forget.... the Temple of Time from Ocarina of Time is also in the background of Hyrule Temple. I'm surprised that wasnt mentioned.

[CrappyCaptureDevice]

Since you mentioned it, I compared them. Sure, they are both tall Gothic Architecture type buildings and there is SOME resemblance in the circular design at the top, but not much otherwise. Not to mention, they really don't even have the same steeple design. So when you said that before I compared, I was considering deleting this, adding that comparison in and then reuploading the video, but now I'm not sure if it's worth it. I'll think about it and may do it tonight, but probably not.

[brightnocturn]

The text explanation was mindblowing. I can't believe you found that one.

[64marjo64]

I wonder what's next? maybe pokemon stages, or Metroid stages. IT'S A MYSTERY!!!!

[Luigi356]

actually he is going in the order of the SSBM stage screen.

[xFireWolfxx]

its the Yoshi Island. duh.

[64marjo64]

Wow! I thought Hyrule Temple was only Zelda flavored with triforces and ruins. I have Zelda ll on GBA but I never though it had things related to the games. You rule the universe man!:D Your not a crappy capture device after all! (Joke there)

[64marjo64]

He's gonna do them in another video soon.

[Tiggeralt]

Omniglot has a section on Hyrule text, you might be able to transliterate the text.

[Tiggeralt]

The text on the stage says: "watsunaharoi shahasenoki." I think.
