Photo Album (Link's Awakening)

From Zelda Wiki.org

Jump to: navigation, search

As an added extra in the GameBoy Color version of Link's Awakening, a kind of mini-game was added where, upon talking to the shop owner who is known only as 'The Photographer', the player could complete certain tasks and earn a photo to not only commemorate the moment but to print off and keep if they owned the GameBoy Printer.

There are a total of 13 photos to obtain, some with titles and some without. Each photo is stored back at the Photo Shop in an album for the player to look at whenever they wish.
"Hey you! Have you been to the Camera Shop in Tal Tal Heights? Young people like to go there and take pictures of themselves. Seems kinda funny to me."

The Photographer 'The Travels of Link '


When you first talk to the Photographer, he will ask you to stand in front of a curtain so he can take your picture. If you agree you get a picture of Link giving the peace sign in front of the curtain.

If you refuse and keep telling the Photographer 'No' you will get a picture of Link beaten up in front of the curtain.
