I had heard/read about the &qu...@Nicodemus at Nite:<br />I had heard/read about the "Easter eggs", in World of Warcraft, but never read what they were specifically.<br />Thanks for sharing! I think it's crazy the developers take time, to put characters and items in the game, that we may(or may not) recognize.<br /><br />@Chuckpebble:<br />Yea, the little odd facts about older games, or even new ones, I find interesting.<br />I still remember hearing about the original Punch-Out's cue, as to when to hit the "punch" button on Bald Bull's "Bull Charge" attack.<br /><br />I won't spoil what the cue is, but I tried it, and sure enough it worked!<br /><br /><b>Thanks for the comments!</b>coffeewithgameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05381995224445934504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8884169422383528093.post-35400909528740305962010-04-05T08:07:14.131-04:002010-04-05T08:07:14.131-04:00Ha ha, thats a pretty cool little easter egg. I lo...Ha ha, thats a pretty cool little easter egg. I loved those old NES boxes. Wish I had a good one to share. Well, I know what I'll be doing today, I love reading about obscure game trivia.

There are too many to name from my time on World of Warcraft but here are a few:<br /><br />There was a guy in the jungle searching for treasure called Harrson Ford referencing Indiana Jones.<br /><br />In the city of Dalaran if you go in the seweres you will see a rat and four level 1 turtles referencing TMNT.<br /><br />in Un'Goro Crater there is a character named Linken (Link) who has a bit of amnesia. Doing quests for Linken will help him regain his memory. He will remember a raft, a throwback to the original The Legend of Zelda where one of Link's collectible items is a raft. One of the other items you must bring Linken is a faded photograph, which shows Linken with a female princess that is similar to Princess Zelda. Other items you find in his old rafts are a map and a compass, objects that are found in every Zelda game dungeon. If you complete Linken's quests he will reward you with Linken's Boomerang and Linken's Sword of Mastery, references to Link's trusty boomerang and the Master Sword. Near Linken there is also a Kodo named Dadanga, similar to Dodongo, a monster from the Zelda series, and if you talk to its owner she will tell you that it "hates smoke", a reference to a hint given in the Legend of Zelda that "DODONGO DISLIKES SMOKE". Also during these chain of events there is an NPC named Miblon, a reference to the enemy (Moblin) from the original Zelda game. You must buy a piece of ham for Miblon, which opens a gate to an Evoroot. In The Legend of Zelda, you must give a piece of ham to a Moblin to access another part of a dungeon.<br /><br />I love seeing these things in games.<br /><br />nicodemusatnite.blogspot.comCharlie Changhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15893038509880330735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8884169422383528093.post-31835155833557753822010-04-05T02:12:17.653-04:002010-04-05T02:12:17.653-04:00@keith:
