Just a few days ago, while flipping through my psychology textbook, looking for funny captions to pictures (“This woman will probably use trial and error to figure out which key is the correct one”), I stumbled upon something awesome. It’s just a picture, but of something I had never expected to see in a textbook. Just look:
(Page 146, if you’ve got the book)
So what’s so amazing about this? Well, the cartoon this child(?) is watching just happens to be The Legend of Zelda. Indeed, a television series that lasted only four months, churned out 13 episodes, and had a terrible introduction. I have little doubt that this appearance wasn’t an accident, especially in a textbook published in 1998, nine years after the horrible show was canceled.
If anyone’s willing to scour Youtube for that delightful dungeon scene, please do. I’d be interested in finding out which episode it’s in.
