>wind fish>fish>it’s actually a whaleLiterally unplayable.
As Biggie once said: It was all a dream.
>>11498113sardines for dinner
>>11498127Super Nintendo Sega Genesis, that's the real question.
>>11498105>t. never found the in-game lore
>>11498159Damn
>>11498159woah...miyamoto-san...forgive me...
>>11498105In renaissance era times people thought whales were fish. It's called a "wind" fish, because it has a blowhole.
>>11498113but he was real though.
>>11498105>people have been calling whales 'fish' since the days of the bible\story of jonah >zelda does too one time>bad somehowop is retarded
>>11498105Quit the game right here i was so upset
>>11498685>people have stopped calling whales 'fish' since the days of Aristotle>Nintendo still does itNintendo is retarded
>>11498702No, biological categories are retarded. Fish are marine animals regardless of what lungs or glands or skin or whatever the fuck they have.
>>11498720You are such a stupid cunt.
>>11498105>THE WIND FISH IN NAME ONLY, FOR IT IS NEITHER.
>>11498651It's called a "wind" fish because it has wings and flies through the damn sky.
>has wings>can talk>"it's a whale"???
>>11498862ah yes the wind parrot
>>11498251The man responsible for the story in Link's Awakening is Yoshiaki Koizumi, who has always consistently butted heads with Miyamoto over Miyamoto's very strict anti-story/anti-lore stance in games.
>>11498884I mean, it's closer to a bird than a fish. It wasn't sleeping in a whale egg.
>>11498892Cringe made up highschool style drama for youtube clicks
>>11498105It just looks like a whale that doesn't mean biologically speaking it IS a whalealso it was a dream
>>11498651"fish" is a social construct
>>11498956It's not made up, it's pretty well documented through interviews with both of them. Koizumi would want to introduce more story and more lore into games and Miyamoto would push back on that a lot, less so with Zelda, but definitely with Mario.
>>11499021Is there an interview where Miyamoto admits this? If it only comes from Koizumi, I don't fully trust it, because often in interviews people will talk themselves up a lot. And how do we know these shot down ideas weren't actually retarded? Maybe his pushback helped refine them into better ideas? Was there actually any animosity in these interviews? When I am calling it "highschool drama" I suppose I am talking about the closely related claim that they secretly hate each other and he had to sneak in his story bits through an underground railway to make it into the game (exaggeration).
>>11499061Here's one example:https://www.wired.com/2009/06/super-mario-galaxy-2/>"Mr. Koizumi is the type of person who, whenever we're working on a new Mario game, he always wants to bring more story elements into it, as he did with Super Mario Galaxy. But in talking with him this time, he agrees and feels that with Galaxy 2, there won't be a need for as deep of a story," Miyamoto said.>It's not just Koizumi who's pushing back against Miyamoto's propensity towards minimalism. Miyamoto says he's also had some "battles" with the team making New Super Mario Bros. Wii over the story.>"They always want to have these dramatic scenes where Princess Peach gets kidnapped, but I always tell them, no, it's fine – Princess Peach likes cake, so you can just have them use cake as bait to kidnap Princess Peach, and that's enough," he laughed.>Was there actually any animosity in these interviews?No, nothing like that. I'm not saying they hate each other or are at each other's throats, they just have a difference of opinion and Miyamoto's seniority seems to allow him to override Koizumi when he tries to push for more story than Miyamoto is comfortable with.
>>11499262I see. Thanks. I apologize for my posts and ignorance on the subject. I admit I thought I was on /v/ when I made my initial post.
>>11498105>expecting logic from a game for children
>>11498105What's with whales having wings and being able to fly in clouds in japanese mediaThe theme is prominent to this day, I saw flying whale in Balan Wonderworld too
>>11499280>>11499262Based reasonable discussion havers
