Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon by Grumpmeister in  

Runner introduction starts at 0:27 Run starts at 2:12 Commentary is provided by authorblues Kungfufruitcup is host

Thanks to everyone for all the support and love for the run! I really didn't expect the run would be received as well as it did :D Again, I've been absolutely honored by the amount of money raised to get the game into the marathon and opening Awful Block (which is always my favorite block to watch as well) has been a treat. I'm also glad authorblues joined me on commentary, he's an excellent any% runner of the game and his commentary is always excellent. And KungfuFruitcup's reactions to what was happening was absolutely on point. The minute after 33:40 just sums up the experience for me; great cutscenes, kffc trying to hold back her laugh and Biskit moving to the other side of the couch. The internet fame hasn't gotten to Biskit's head yet, he's still the same cuddly pup as before, but has received some extra pets for sure :D

'if you were to print out the piece of paper with the zelda timeline, it's on the back' excellent answer from the couch

Shoutout to Biscuit on the couch. Best couch at a GDQ yet 😂

Love how Zelda just casually breaks the girl's mirror so she would stop looking at herself

I love the loud ass buzzing after every cutscene lol. It’s like the system is trying desperately to process what’s going on 😂

Wand of Gamelon? On original hardware? I too like to live dangerously.

Me, dying of laughter: YOU’VE KILLED MEEEEEE AGDQ: Good.

"There are three things we can purchase in the shop, there are bombs, rope, and lamp oil" I think you mean "Lamp oil. Rope? BOMBS? You want it? It's yours my friend as long as you have enough rubees!" No wait, wrong Zelda CD-i game...

Easily the best incentive game in years

The perfect speedrun doesn't exi-

not the speedrun we asked for, but absolutely the speedrun we deserved. Thank you Grumpmeister for your sacrifice.

If you don't hear from me in a month, send D I N N E R

I can't believe the mad lad played this on a real console. So glad this incentive got met.

I've always held a special place in my heart for "You've killed me. Good." I'm glad to see the Zelda CDi community agrees.

Mad props to the runner, it's extremely difficult not to act out the cutscenes while they're playing

everyone: Hands are hard to draw. Wand of Gamelon: Hands are hard to draw.

Nintendo won't enshrine this game in Zelda canon because Miyamoto is a coward

Friendly reminder that they donated 160k for this Worth it ngl

The soundtrack is straight fire. Did not expect that!

Hypothetically, the Harkinian duology (Faces of Evil and Wand of Gamelon) would take place after The Adventure of Link, but realistically, yeh, they take place in a different weirder offshoot altogether

"You dare bring light to my lair!?"

Dog switches side at 34:30

"i wonder what's for dinner" the single greatest quote from a video game ever. Ah, the memes, the horrible memes.

I salute to the brave members of the Zelda CDi community. Thanks a lot for this speedrun, this is what we need to forget 2020.

This game literally moved alot of Zelda games out of the way and climbed near to the top of my list. Legit!

It's awesome this game got in, but I hope it makes another appearance in front of a live audience.

These cutscenes....I can't look away.

the part where the commentator started defending the speedrun was so funny lmao

Someone was in the recording booth when these lines were spoken and was like “yeah that’s the one. Cut.”

42:52 Yoooooou‘ve killed meeee..... Good

47:50 crows, but they're... seagulls??? This game is so... unique, I have no other words to describe it.

34:34 best scene in the game where biscuit moves to the other side of the couch

The "scrub every room in the castle" dialogue is referenced in Hyrule Warriors. It felt a bit out of place, and I now know why.

*The wolf lion grabs the bird and makes it fried chicken and eats it * Kungfufruitcup: What.. ._. Grumpmeister: XD

It might just be me, but I think the music in this game is very cool

Oh Boyy, Cant Wait To Bomb Some DINNER

This game is actually on the Star Trek timeline.

This was so hype, I almost forgot it was all remote. Excellent stuff!

55:30 - "There are dozens of us. DOZENS!" Love the Arrested Development reference :-D

Bless anyone willing to play this game at all... I can’t imagine knowing it inside and out like our hero here does! 😅

Looks like the same animation company as "Press Your Luck" in the 1980s.

Given how hard this game is, that run was very impressive.

I like to imagine when the co commentator talks its actually the dog

Shoutout to Biskit.❤

58:12 the runner finally selects “Help”

45:03 You're correct, the sword won't hurt anyone friendly - but they don't know that, do they?

Ah yes, one of the singularly most cursed games ever created.

Best Zelda game. Called Zelda. Stars Zelda.

53:30 who wouldn’t forget that iconic gaming line? ......anyone?....

"You've speedrun meeeee...!" "Good!"

Why does ganon look like a studio ghibli character

The soundtrack slaps so hard it can cook a chicken.

The pupper is best co-commentator

Ah, a Zelda run. Zelda is always a masterpiece of gaming.

Is this the first ever run with a dog on the couch? So cute!

The part with the Iron Knuckle is so funny! "Let's get out of here" lol

Well excuuuuuuuuuuuuuusssseee me, princess!

EDIT: The animation has a weird psychedelic charm once you get used to it but the voice acting...wow.

Only watching this because I remember watching the review by AVGN, so now I want to see more.

Doesn't get much better than the CDI Zelda games. Love it!

I feel like some DINNER!!!

Awesome! The whole uses rupees for ammo for certain weapons is pretty genius, they should definitely use that in botw2

Alright guys, seriously, who wants Links life, *Wakes Up* "What happened?" Nothing, we were about to have a feast!

Finally the real best Zelda game gets represented in gdq

A power glove! It's so bad.

"Yeah, thanks, I hate it."

I lost sleep watching this last night. I'm losing sleep again tonight.

i loved this game and faces of evil as a kid. they were so hard!

42:52 In case you want to watch the best cutscene ever.

Thank you for wearing my T-shirt design! :)

Always makes me laugh to see this game, good job guys!

Oh no the CDI Strikes agian lol

The CD-I games are an offshoot timeline that happen after the original Zelda cartoon.

I'm...just in awe...

I love how confused the announcer gets after every cutscene.

Link sounds and acts like *Sonic.* ...Why? How? Stop it!

My brother owned a CDI i can still remember we played together this game love the music :)

It's not even a Legend of Zelda but just a Zelda, because unlike the "other" games, Zelda is not a legend - she actually shows up!

This is where the fun begins

It doesn't feel the same without the crowd of people behind the runners.

Amazing voice acting xD also interesting that the game has better graphics than the cut scenes

I love this MS Paint project that somehow went too far.

Saw this in my feed and my immediate reaction was: "WHY would you do this to yourself?!" Champ for suffering through Gamelon for everyone's enjoyment =D

3:20 Impa and Zelda sailed to their destination! What is this Windwaker?!

My biggest question is why do the crows at 47:48 sound like seagulls?

this man plays this game so we don't have to

Well excuuuYYYUUuuuuse me, Princess!

Lol they actually played this game.

Aaaaa You've killed me ... *GUD*

Ah, CD-i Zelda. Source of so many of my childhood internet memories through youtube poops. I can still recite them all word for word. What a great run, entertaining runner and commentary

This is one of the few videos I wish I could hit the like and thanks I hate it buttons!

Wow this is cool I never would have thought this game would have a speed run.

That was.... something....

The legend of the CDI

Squadala!

I watched this while sick and I was genuinely sorta terrified thinking I was having an actual fever dream.

I know in which timeline this game takes place: When Ganon took part in a bad voice acting contest and wins the final round. :)

"Let's get out of here." gets me every time.

OH THE INDIGNITY
