Topic: I always did think Link's Boomerang was a bit implausible...

haha sorry. i love this gif.

That's why he needs the upgrade! It's the MAGIC boomerang

Hey, if you're going into that, how does Link store everything?

_{Evil hammerspace...}

I think I kind of remember that exact spot in A Link To The Past as well... lol

Someone didn't watch the TV show. All his items shrink real small, and he puts them in a small pouch.

Hammerspace might not be necessary in most games, if the instruction booklet art is to be believed...

How does Link carry all of those items? HE JUST DOES.

Maybe the game engine couldn't handle rendering 999 rupees, so they decided to just show an item when he uses it.

If you're going into item storage logic, then damn you're gonna confuse yourself. Then you have to start considering how characters in, say, RPG parties store hundreds of potions and elixirs, tents, cabins, heavy swords and armor, vehicles, etc.

The most obvious answer is hammer space (or, as I always referred to it, sub-space).

i've always just considered him to be carrying all of it, like in Chicken's picture, hence why he can't jump, and why he can hardly make it across hyrule field before nightfall. (the place can't be over 300 yards!)

I also like how Link's iron boots are only heavy when they're on his feet.

Long live hammerspace!

I think there are games that use hammerspace, and say so in the game right?

If it doesn't outright mock it, I know that Tales of Monkey Island makes some humorous references to Guybrush's hammerspace pockets.

Only link is that badass.
