Twilight Princess Manual [link fixed] November 17th, 2006 at 12:32 am by The Missing Link[EDIT: I’d like to mention that the artwork of the manual contains characters that we HAVE NOT YET SEEN in any trailer that I am aware of. (I have been avoiding trailers that show spoilers, so your results might vary.) The story I have transcribed below is by and large the safest part of the manual other than perhaps the game controls, but even then, I didn’t scour those pages for spoiler images. Granted, you’ll have access to all of this before you play Twilight anyways, so the ball is in your court on this one.] [EDIT 2: Link is fixed. Sorry about that! It was late, and I wanted to get to bed last night.] Thanks to a hat tip from a fellow zelda_lovers community member on LiveJournal, you can find the Twilight Princess manual scanned, uploaded, and ready for the viewin’! You can find the introductory story, the game controls, a few pages of hints (the first few Photobucket pages since it’s in backwards order), and never before seen artwork. To sweeten the deal, in case you’re too timid to wander over to the manual directly for fear of spoilers (especially those hint pages–labelled as Pages 16 and 17), I have transcribed the text of the introductory story for you in this post. There’s nothing in here that we kinda don’t know already, but just in case I’m still marking as spoiler because some of this will be the first events to happen in the game, so be forewarned! Deep in the southernmost region of the kingdom of Hyrule lies a village by the name of Ordon. Cradled in the scenic beauty of pristine farmland, the villagers of Ordon make a living by raising livestock. Among the villagers is a boy known as the most skillful rider in all the land. A boy who, it is expected, will one day take over the responsibility of leading Ordon as the village chief.

PhotoBucket is “currently under maitnance” right now too, so you can’t even get to it that way…
And to tell you the truth TML, I really wouldn’t spoilidify this post. Not only does your link give us a 404 (yeah, that’s right, be ashamed
) but I’m guessing that the PhotoBucket pic won’t even come back. And I pretty much knew what was going to happen in the beginning so…
I don’t know. Whatever you’d like to do is fine, but I’d despoilidify it.

You can still access the manual, you just have to go one extra step. If you click on the first link there to the zelda_lovers livejournal community, there is a link you can click on there to go to the manual screenshots. A direct link is: http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v325/bigopinion/TPManual/
We’ve already seen that story from the trailer, so the only real spoilerific part of this post is that link to the manual.

Ooccoo scares the bejesus out of me. If I woke up with that on my bed I might die.

Heheh, Thanks for fixing the link TML! But Imp? You don’t think maybe it’s a skull-kid? Or maybe Midna? Why am I reminded of Majora’s mask? Hmm…

I want to play this game right now…*whines* Why did I have to decide to get the Gamecube version…?
The manual is what I’m weary of. I’m okay with some spoilage, but not too much. I can’t restrain myself for very long, though. :/

Cool! Can’t wait until TP on GCN! I won’t ruin it for anyone, but now I know what Midna needs for her own “agenda” *du du duuu* Hey, TML, mind putting up a counter for GCN TP? I like to visit TDC, maily for the “Ask Ezlo” game.

Well, don’t complain. I won’t even be able to get the Twilight princess for wii. Im pretty sad, my ma said it’s because she didn’t preorder, which I told her to but she didn’t listen, now I shall never ever get to play TP, not even once, I may not even look at it, so these spoilers now mean nothing to me.
Im sobering
Yes
But don’t complain about these spoilers, your lucky your getting the game )-:

Dude. Why do you have to leave off like that? You probably stopped just as everyone on Hylia was swept off to a diffrent universe, where everyone turned into Beanie Babies.
This was a warped mind announcment.
