History Funny / TheLegendOfZeldaTheWindWaker

* What happens when you attack a Moblin in the rear (made all the more amusing due to the fact that it's quite a beefy-looking enemy): it hops about clutching its ass, with [[SparklingStreamOfTears tears streaming from its eyes]].

* Participate in an auction. Bid [[WhammyBid sufficiently higher than the last bid]] (about 20 Rupees higher should do it) and watch the [[CirclingBirdies stunned faces]].

* In the finale, Ganondorf [[spoiler:assembles the entire Triforce, ''finally'' succeeding where nearly all previous Ganons had failed, and loudly proclaims his wish to rule Hyrule... only for Daphnes to appear out of seemingly nowhere to steal his wish. Just by ''touching it first''. ShaggyDogStory doesn't even begin to describe it for Ganondorf.]]

* Go to Ice Ring Isle and stand on the ice. Start running in one direction, then immediately start running in the opposite direction. Link will slip and fall on his face.

* Pour some Forest Water on the Forbidden Woods boss. [[https://youtu.be/XxgbfWRy0bA?t=221 See what happens.]] [[spoiler:OneHitKO.]]

* Link's meeting with the Fairy Queen. She tells him that he's just her type. Link seems ''really happy'' about this, until the King of Red Lions gives him a look.

** [[https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAABnUYnoqVm1tQ Who says heroes don't have time to send loved ones a photo of the final showdown?]]

* Pour some Forest Water on the Forbidden Woods boss. [[https://youtu.be/XxgbfWRy0bA?t=221 See what happens.]]

** An equally hilarious side effect from this can happen while Fighting Gohma. It's possible to fall into the center pit of lava as you defeat Gohma, and doing so will cause Link to continuously bounce in the lava for the entire duration of the victory cutscene.

** It's particularly funny because [[DelayedReaction it takes Link a moment]] to even ''notice'' he's in the barrel. Either he [[FailedASpotCheck somehow failed to notice]] he was being stuck in the barrel, or the pirates managed to ''scene-transition'' him into the barrel.

-->'''Link''': '''''[[ScreamsLikeALittleGirl WOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaa-!]]''''' (''[[ATwinkleInTheSky ding]]'')

* When you get 30 points in Beedle's ship shop, you get the Complimentary ID. Show it to Beedle, and he... [[spoiler:compliments you]].

-->'''Medli''': I'm... I'm ''fiiiine!'' [[MadeOfIron That... didn't really hurt.]] What was I saying? Oh yeah! Once... once more! With the wind! Toss away, please!
-->'''Medli''': My, what beautiful stars! Twinkle-twinkle...♪ Where were we? Oh yeah! Once... once more! With the wind! Toss away, please!
-->'''Medli''': Huh... whuh? Link? [[SingleMaltVision Since when did you become triplets?]] No, I'm five... I mean, file... FINE! C'mon! Don't hold back! Use the wimp... er, WIND and ''really'' toss me!

** Also, related to the auction, you may notice that one of the Treasure Charts that gets put up on the block has a starting bid of only five Rupees. (The other chart starts off at around 40 or so.) The sunken chest this chart leads to is near Windfall Island itself. Its contents? [[spoiler:A single ''Green Rupee''.]] [[JokeItem Better collect lots of them!]]

* Participate in an auction. Bid sufficiently higher than the last bid (about 20 Rupees higher should do it) and watch the [[CirclingBirdies stunned faces]].

** Even better than stunning the other bidders so you can win the item yourself is intentionally jacking up the bid beyond what you're willing to pay, and then watching the poor souls as they continue to blow their savings by building upon your ludicrous offering.

* Some of the bios in the completed Nintendo Gallery count.
** [[UnluckyChildhoodFriend Kamo's]] is brutal:

-->'''[[DidNotGetTheGirl Years with No Girlfriend]]:''' 18

** The ReDeads' screams are one of the more terrifying ones in this game. However, a cursory glance at Link while their scream is in effect shows that he [[BringMyBrownPants feels the same way]] as many players.

* Ganondorf's expression after [[spoiler:Komali and Quill swoop in to snatch Link and Tetra right out from under him]]. It's like a mixture of disappointment and him asking himself, "Wait, what just happened?"

* The early scene where the pirates reveal ''exactly'' how they plan to get Link into the Forsaken Fortress may well be one of the ''funniest'' things in the entire Zelda universe, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrcQnugPpYk bar none]]. Link needs to get inside, but the place is swarming with patrol boats. So what do they do? Stick Link in a barrel, put him on a catapult, and wish him "Bon voyage!" Seriously. The look(s) on Link's face during the countdown itself are ''priceless'' -- but the pure slapstick of him splatting into the wall on the other side once they launch him is pretty good too. (The only thing that's not funny is the [[StealthBasedMission stealth-due-to-]][[NoGearLevel lost-sword]] that follows.)
** Also, you can see [[FunnyBackgroundEvent one of the pirates waving in the background as Link flies away]].
** Before that, when you first see the pirates, they're going after the Helmaroc King who had recently captured Tetra. To get her back, they fire cannonballs at the bird. When the Helmaroc King looks back, [[WhatAnIdiot he freezes in place]] [[AmusingInjuries as a cannonball hits him square in the jaw]], causing him to drop Tetra into the Forest of Fairies.
** That scene is closely rivaled by the cutscene after Link places all three pearls of the goddesses. After placing the last pearl, the statue [[PreExplosionGlow begins radiating beams of light]]. Link naturally yells and dives for cover moments before the statue... does nothing. Cut to Link's [[WheresTheKaboom bewildered reaction]], after which he goes back to inspect the sta-KABOOM! "[=WAAAAAAaaaaaaaa...=]" [[ATwinkleInTheSky *ding*]]
** As the Tower of the Gods rises out of the sky, Link crashes right into it with a sound resembling that of a squeaky toy, and falls into the water. The [[ExpositionFairy King of Red Lions]] just talks at him like nothing's wrong and tells him to get going. Honestly, it's like they decided on the graphics style just for the slapstick and ending.

* The NewGamePlus bonus of not wearing the traditional green outfit is introduced in the most hilarious of fashions. Link's grandmother hands him nothing and he has this miserable look on his face. She asks him what's wrong; it's apparently made of a special material that only the honest can see — which becomes a RunningGag as you get to see which characters in the game are honest. The ItemGet text is confused by trying to say "Link got... nothing? wait..." and Link pretends to put the clothing over his pajamas and then you realise throughout the whole game Link was wearing his pajamas underneath the green outfit!

** If you do it at Dragon Roost Island, before throwing her on the cliff so she can go on ahead, she'll mutter gibberish, like the following:
--->'''Medli''': Huh? Whuh? Link? Since when did you become triplets? No, I'm five... I mean, file... FINE! C'mon! Don't hold back! Use the wimp... er...WIND and really toss me! \\
'''Medli''': My, what beautiful stars! Twinkle-twinkle... Where were we? Oh, yeah! Once...once more! With the wind! Toss away, please!
** Heck, throwing Medli or Makar into a wall is pretty funny, whether on purpose or on accident (maybe even more so if you discover you can do it by accident). [[VideoGameCrueltyPotential Mean, yes]], but still pretty funny, since you can do it over and over again without actually hurting them (as they have no LifeMeter).

** Even better! If you use the Mirror Shield or Medli's harp to reflect light on to a ReDead it will spaz out in fear. That's right, you can terrify ReDeads in this game.

** Especially that honking sound a Miniblin makes when you squash it with the Skull Hammer. Given how much annoyance and NightmareFuel those things provide, that can also slip into MostWonderfulSound territory.

** LetsPlay/{{Chuggaaconroy}} had a bit of a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pP51ZRahdso breakdown]] when it happened to him. (It starts around 8:45 or so)

* On Windfall Island, you can play a Battleship-like game in a shop for a Piece of Heart, complete with sound effects being provided by the very bored man who runs the place. The "splooooosh!" sound he makes every time you strike an empty square is priceless, not to mention his face if you say you didn't understand his explanation.
** His attempt to portray the children you saved is also hilarious, but pales before his antics at the cannon minigame on another island. Win there and he plays the role of a flirtatious young woman... which happens to be Tetra.
