Talk:Spectacle Rock

Spectacle/Pinnacle

For Majora's Mask, I believe what we have labeled now is the counterpart of Lake Hylia, not Spectacle Rock, due to it being a body of water, with 2 or more islands connected by bridges. Do we have and documentation to say that this is spectacle rock? I believe that since it is in Termina, and the Terminian counterparts are usually twisted versions, the Pinnacle Rock is Spectacle's counterpart, based on the similar sounding names, and representation.

Any thoughts? This is just what I had always assumed, so to see the Wiki disagreed surprised me, and I thought I would ask.

Twilight Princess

Wait, this appears in Twilight Princess? "Spectacle Rock" doesn't appear anywhere within the game's text, and perhaps we're confusing this with Death Mountain? User:Ando/sig 03:50, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

Spectacle Rock is the large (and only) structure you enter, home to the Goron Mines. It isn't specifically called Spectacle Rock, but neither is the one in Ocarina of Time; it is just something that is plainly obvious to any Zelda continuity fanatic. Twilight Princess' Death Mountain, however, is the fiery, unmissable and rockily doom-ridden molten behemoth visible in the distance. You can even see it from the Faron Province, so it's difficult to confuse the two. Canonicity for the win! Rob 64 18:24, 28 July 2008 (UTC)Rob 64

A rock is a rock is a rock

Maybe I've been living under my own rock for years, but what on Earth is the point of this article? Is this some sort of hardcore Zelda fan inside joke, or what? Someone explain please. Jimbo Jambo 21:23, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

It's not really a joke. It's actually quite important to the timeline/landscape issues. It's something of an "easter egg" for most Zelda fans. —Alter  ^{{T C B H }} 22:32, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

Perhaps you could go a little bit more in-depth than that? Admittedly I haven't played any of the old Super Nintendo or GameBoy games, but for the console games, I fail to see the connection between a tall, thin rock spike in the very center of Death Mountain Crater to the roundish rock face in Twilight Princess where the Gorons live which isn't even completely separate from the surrounding stone walls. And a single plateau among two others in the middle of a lake in Majora's Mask? That doesn't even take place in the same reality as any of the other games. Jimbo Jambo 04:10, 8 February 2009 (UTC)
