** Did Duke Onkled betray the King out of corruption or was he threatened into doing so? After all, this is Ganon we're talking about here. Judging by his threat to Link in ''Faces of Evil'', he does not take people turning down his offers for them to join him lying down. In addition, Duke Onkled's pleas that Zelda and the King go easy on him can as easily be interpreted as regretting his actions and hoping they won't punish him too harshly as it is a desperate move of saving his own skin.

Judging by his threat to Link in ''Faces of Evil'', he does not take people turning down his offers for them to join him lying down. Dodomai Palace is notably in bad shape when Zelda arrives, with smashed furniture, Ganon's minions everywhere and Hektan in charge while Onkled is confined to a tiny room. In addition, Duke Onkled's his pleas that Zelda and the King go easy on him can as easily be interpreted as regretting his actions and hoping they won't punish him too harshly as it is a he was desperate move of saving to save his own skin.

YMMV tropes can't be zigzagged, played with or averted/subverted. Besides, the CD-I games haven't been redeemed or vindicated at all.


* VindicatedByHistory: Zig-zagged. These games were usually held up as the worst games ever made - being some of the most requested games for angry reviewers like the WebVideo/AngryVideoGameNerd. Nowadays, people are a little more understanding that the system they were made on was just ''not'' made for action games and appreciate that there was at least an honest effort made. That said, most people [[WatchItForTheMeme play it for the memes]] anyway.

"This is Word Cruft, you know."


* MainstreamObscurity: Mostly known for [=YouTube=] Poops. Very few have actually ''played'' the CD-i games, though this is mostly because they were originally released for [[Platform/PhilipsCDi an unpopular system]] that few owned and sees little in terms of emulation efforts, meaning one has to go out of their way to play them. Of course, it doesn't help that even if one were willing to play them on original hardware, it would be expensive to do so.
