The entire Short family shares their favorite memories of Wind Waker.

Tanner and Timmi delve into the lore of Wind Waker, starting with the connections it made with Ocarina of Time. This was a landmark game in the fact that it was explicitly linked to another Zelda game in spite of its artistic makeover and drastically different story concept. This opened the door to a more widespread idea that all the Zelda games could be connected which eventually led to the creation of the timeline. One of the more interesting connections Wind Waker made was in the species found in the game and their guardian deities and how they related to those found in Ocarina.
From there, they discussed the possible geographic relationship between the two games. Even though it's typical for a new Zelda game to disregard the geography of Zeldas past, there are still notable similarities that can be drawn between major locations in both games.
Finally, they discussed a point of great importance...who is Link's grandpa??

They also reminisce with some of their early memories of playing the game and share their love of nostalgic characters and side quests.

The Short Clan discuss their theories for some of the biggest questions surrounding the lore in Tears of the Kingdom. First, where in the timeline does the game belong? Perhaps it’s an alternate branch of time a new evolution of Hylians. Maybe it sits at the end of the current timeline after all other branches have converged and long passed into history. Next, who are the Zonai? Do they descend from other sky races like the Ooca or the Wind Tribe, or do they simply evolve from another race in Hyrule? Finally, what are the Depths? Nintendo kept the Depths a secret prior to release, but there are still several mysteries surrounding them, such as their origin and the nature of the Bargainer Statue Brothers. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/shortsonline/support
