Or a metal triangle (dunno the proper name, Chunky used one in Donkey Kong 64).

I already suggested that. And a cowbell.

i suggest a jaw breaker.

depending on the random number god music will be made either by links jaw dislocating and his muffled screams of pain as he tries to open his mouth wide enough to get the jawbreaker out- or by his teeth breaking with every misguided attempt to bite down on the jawbreaker in hopes of reaching the sweet gummy center. or if he's lucky he'll be really boring and eat it the way it was meant to be eaten. by lapping up the sugar on it like a kitten lapping up milk.

after a few lucky tries he will eventually start whining because his tongue is starting to ache from the repeated licking.

A vibraphone!

Or a marching bass drum.

How about a harmonica? Or a kazoo? A vuvuzela?

A cello? Or maybe just a huge violin. Of course, we should replace Link's sword with a big violin to back enemies over the head with.

Or actually, if we're having a instrument doubling as a weapon, it should be a shakuhachi.

Timpani.

[up] Here you go.

And a shakuhachi is a Japanese flute.

A type of flute.

Specifically, it was a type of flute carried by Japanese Buddhist monks, that's said to have often been used as an Improvised Weapon for self-defense since they weren't allowed to carry actual weapons.

Was already suggested (the triangle)? Wow, I really suck. =/

In that case, I just have no idea on what to suggest. =/

[up][up] How about an eigenharp that doubles as his scabbard?

[up] Hey, hey, none of that. Just because I happened to suggest something a page before you did doesn't mean that you suck.

I would suggest timpani (since I kinda sorta play them myself), but it doesn't seem convenient to carry around and pull out on a whim.

yeah, you guys are missing the point.

none of the stuff you guys mentioned would be easy to carry around (not even the flutes guys; have you no shame?)

not like a...jawbreaker? or beer bottles that any lush would have.

[up] A jawbreaker is a kind of candy.

How about all the above. The game has nothing but instruments as items.

I'm saying that I have no idea why it's in an instrument conversation.

as long as they include a jawbreaker.

[up] just because.

and to be fair, i stated a completely legit way it could make music with a jawbreaker waaay at the top of the page

Link's Awakening kind of did a lot of different instruments, though most weren't useable...
