This was my favorite version of the Mirror Shield. I think I was one of the rare few that was disappointed when I found out that Nintendo changed it.

For some reason, I find this one very haunting as well as beautiful. It has this feel to it that gives me the creeps, as if merely touching it will inflict a curse upon me, or something.

I feel the same way and in retrospect, I think its design would have worked perfectly with Majora's Mask. But... that creepy face Mirror Shield is great too, it's a reminder of that falling moon!

I thought that too! =o Even the bottom portion looked to me like very, very simplistically drawn Giant, if you think of that round circle as its head. Then again, one could see it as a moon too.

Wow, that's meta! O.o
Oh, have you come across this yet? [link] Those guys that made the awesome Majora's Mask Wii U trailer are trying to convince Nintendo to let them work on something. His English isn't very good, but I think the message is they want to work on cut scenes, movies or some kind of limited interaction thing.

@w@ Yes, I've seen that before and it's awesome! I'm kinda surprised that Nintendo hasn't tried to make a remake of Majora's Mask yet.

I wish that guy the best of luck, though. =o He certainly has lots of potential!

It gives me the creeps for one reason. many many people died over that symbol during a war in hte middle east. Which is why the changed it in the first place XD

Yeah, I know a lot of people died over that symbol, but I still think it could have been kept in there. I would also say the same for the cross shields that Link used to carry. It's sad that a lot of people get offended by such things. Nintendo wasn't making fun of them or anything. In fact, I think it makes the game even more interesting and a little more connected to our own world. :)

I agree. I like the older mirror shield over the new Gerudo symbol. But Nintendo felt it would be best to avoid a controversy.

I can understand that. I just wish people weren't so sensitive sometimes. ^^;

I agree. Humanity is very sensitive now a days and it bugs me.
