The face of The Legend of Zelda's 25th anniversary reveals some of the 'perks' of being tied to the series...
Continuing a series of chats with ONM, Zelda Williams has revealed the extent to which her namesake penetrates her social life.
She recalls some of the cringe-inducing chat-up lines utilised on her once people associate her with Nintendo's revered franchise.
"There are the ones who try to turn it into innuendo, you know, "swords" or "Do I have to come and rescue you?" The best ones are the ones where they try to do some sort of flirtatious thing, but they're comparing you to Link, because they didn't play the games and they don't realise that Zelda isn't the one in green! And you have to be the dork then to properly correct them..."
Apologies that we can't embed the full video here, but you can view it all over at ONM's website.
And to whet your appetite for the release of Skyward Sword, here is the latest promo featuring Zelda's daddy-o.
The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword hits shops this Friday.
