We've seen some creative and clever videos over the years, with no shortage of film-making skill, that celebrate Nintendo franchises or characters. One of our favourites is this post-it Mario sequence, which used stop-motion video techniques and 7000 post-it notes — all in the name of entertainment.
The talented people behind that video, FinalCutKing, have now returned with The Legend of Digital Zelda. Using a host of computers, phones and tablets that are all lined up, this is a continuous animation that tracks a 'paper' version of Link across the room towards a happy ending. There's apparently a making of video on the way soon if you're interested in how it was done, but we'd rather assume it was made possible by fairy magic.
In any case, check it out below; there's some awesome music, too.

Awesome. Totally going to share that. Massive thumbs up.
Excellent work, just oh so many Crapple products.
Come Christmas, that'll be the average 3 year old's bedroom.
@Tsuchiya I love all the apple products
Meanwhile, great video
I got sick of seeing Crapple.
Wow. Music is pretty good, too.
So cool! Watched the video on my Wii U GamePad while my wife watches the Thanksgiving parade on the TV. Loving this thing.
Apple/Mac is terrible.
It should die....
That was amazing! I wonder if Nintendo will try to make Paper Zelda now.
So much awesomeness with so many overpriced electronics
Seriously though, this is pretty damn impressive!
o.o wow... and in one take?
I don´t care if they use apple stuff, that was impressive.
That was awesome! Lots of Apple products but still
Amazing work!
focus on the legend not in the product
Very impressive, to be able to do that on cr-apple is cool non the less.
@Jgam This.
Although I hate Macs, I'd happily pick up an iPod/iPad and not be mad at myself later.
...
...Like I own anything made by Apple...
That was really cool!
wow that was just amazing even the music too!
Looks like an advertisement for apple computers.
Geez.....It took me like 40 hours to save the princess. They did it in like 2 minutes.....
how the heck did he do that, and have so many ios devices???/
Very good video, I like the creativity. I'm guessing these people are graphic designer-ish workers and use Apple computers at work. My laptop was happy to see her twin in a super Zelda video (^_^)
I knew there would be Apple hate here. XD'
Macs are actually pretty awesome, if only more games worked on Mac OS I wouldn't even use windows. I just hope they don't go the "mobile OS route" as they seem to be heading, because then I don't know anymore.
I tried Windows 8 and I literally cried for how silly it was. Seriously who puts "shut down" under "settings"..
How is that even a thing..
(or play button symbols on videos that don't actually start the video. and the list goes on really.)
Awesome video anyways ^^ <3
I worked as a mac technician so I am probably a bit biased lol. <3 (but I grew up with windows so I know both worlds, and use them both.)
Wow, that video was awesome and very impressive too!
Nicely creative.
Pretty cool! And Gangnam style, why not?! The only thing that totally disgusts me is all that product placement for a certain, fruity company!! It makes you wonder if the makers are REALLY Zelda and/or Nintendo fans!!!
Awesome video!
I just watched this and the Making Of video linked to it, and I have a couple questions:
1) Are these guys getting paid by Apple to show as many Apple logos as possible or is it just me?
2) If they're not selling Apples, are they selling their own animation software? The Making Of video comes across more as an extended plug for their app than anything else.
3) Most importantly, why would you spend so much time making this admittedly awesome video about a beloved game series, if you don't know the name of the main character? (Hint: It's not Zelda!)
Meh...I've seen more epic Zelda vidsos than this.....like potsmasher for 1, or the old April fool's movie trailer Besides, i'm ealy not much a fan of Apple products anyway. Just saying.
cute cute cute ;3
