The Temple of Light immediately brings to mind the name Ariana.
ehehehehe, Men have wasted away before it, entranced by what they have seen, or been driven mad, not knowing if what it shows is real or even possible
Wooooooooooooooo lol! I'm getting so lucky XD
I'm sorry to both of you, but all I can say is loooooooooooooooooooool XD It's amazing, wait how did no one call out the fact it was called "Temple of Light" instead of "Light Temple?"
It was a daily ritual of mine for awhile to check the internet and see what ridiculous new "rumors" (lies) were posted and try to recreate them in-game. I remember one that was very adamant it was based on a secret in the Deku Tree, one that claimed you had to do something with the clock in the Hyrule Castle Courtyard, so many things. When this one came around, it really felt like it had to be the one! lol
In my defense I was like 9.
Tbf to the people who created the hoax (and the naive me lol) it is actually called Temple of Light in the game itself, it's just that it's not a place you can actually explore.
Another famous one I tried is the pyramid in the Haunted Wasteland. Shit was so dumb but it was kinda fun in a way.
Yea I love it. I'm a sucker for gaming videos and articles that talk about games in development. So this thread is a gold mine I love it.
That's certainly interesting. Not sure what to make of it though.So I originally thought this peach stained glass render was a simple cutout but out of sheer luck I ended up opening it into Photoshop as opposed to Illustrator and a background popped up! It's looks like Peach's glass is in some sort of ice cave? It certainly explains why her skin was shaded blue which perplexed me a little bit.
'''No no you just not doing it right! You have to go through this extremely convoluted trading quest to make it accessible! Also you got to beat the running man with 0 seconds!''
yooooo another video has surfaced that shows the equipped medallions!!! (or rather, one I hadn't seen before.)
at 4 seconds in, blink and you'll miss it!
The cameraman looking away as soon as the horse thing ends is KILLING ME, I wanted to know what happened after because that's clearly a race of some kind but in Hyrule field!
When I was a kid, I ran a fansite dedicated to "investigating the triforce rumors" and would basically play through whatever Triforce quests people said lead to it and would update the site to go "Nope! This one didn't work!"
Not everything is cut due to time. Even ideas that sound cool can be scrapped if the developers decide it's not actually good for the game.
That's awesome! When I was like 10 or 11 I remember getting on the staff for a Zelda fansite (there were so many back then) and my main contribution other than random lore articles (which I'm sure were written amazingly at that age) was I ran a section where I just updated my many journeys through the "Beta Quest" (which for anyone who doesn't know was a terrible misleading name given to a bunch of gameshark codes that put you into jumbled up states of the game).
What was it called? I used to run one called Zelda Elements so this feels like it rings a bell.
Yo... Nexus Zero, thank you for your site, it still has one of the best summation articles of beta elements, if you use the wayback machine of course to get the images! It's because of that site that I always think of beta Deku Tree as having a cold!
Fwiw the green in the gigapixel version looks like radioactive waste and the red looks like magma. I'm surprised you can't see that compared to the original

I figured out that the colors were getting messed up because the software I'm using doesn't seem to like CYMK. This should be 1:1 now.
For some reason in your gigapixel upscales, it adds a red tint to the shaded areas on Mario's pants. It looks like it did them with the upscaled renders here too.Fixed it! 1:1 4K Cart Label Render
Figured out how uncorrupt the image/render files and have been trying my hand at gigapixeling for the first time! These renders are very tiny so I couldn't enlarge/enhance them by too much but I think they turned out ok. I'm assuming these were used in the manual? Otherwise I don't really recognize some of them.
Yeah, I'm not trying to shit on anyone's fun, but I really don't think they're any better for this thread than the straight-up hoax images.
It's not in an ice cave, it's just a weirdly tinted version of this render:So I originally thought this peach stained glass render was a simple cutout but out of sheer luck I ended up opening it into Photoshop as opposed to Illustrator and a background popped up!

I'm not sure if it was hacking responsible for it or the data, but the video does show it having the same background music as the Kakariko spider house in the final game (which happens to be the same music used inside the Great Deku Tree). Also supporting your theory is the fact that it actually resembles a somewhat large house befitting the rich family, unlike the lone circular room in the final game.
