Talk:Vaati

message: Maybe I'm just totally off base on this one, but I'm almost reasonably sure that the final boss of Link's Awakening is not Vaati.  The official strategy guide of the game, made by Nintendo of America, lists the final boss as "The Shadow Nightmares" and describes the very final form of the boss as "Dethl."

message: Quotes: There are too many of them.  They belong on wikiquotes.  If someone can choose one or two to remain here, please do so.  Otherwise I will do it in a day or two.  It would be of interest for someone with more knowledge on the subject to do it however, because if I do it I'll just take the top 2 and leave them, if that.  --Oni Ookami AlfadorTalk|@ 04:24, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

message: Is It worth mentioning that Vaati transfigured has the sheikah eye on it. If so what section should it go under. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.42.2.173 (talk • contribs) 
*  It's a different eye. Vaati may have pale skin and red eyes, but he's not a Shiekah.--Saetch 05:19, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

message: This whole section is relatively unsourced and vague, also it is riddled with weasel words.  If these can't be fixed, it would be best to remove all of these assertations and I will see to it that it gets taken care of.  --Oni Ookami AlfadorTalk|@ 04:53, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Controversy 

message: The Japanese name of Vaati is "グフー" (gufū).  As Vaati is the "Wind Mage", I started thinking his name might be meant to be Chinese—"フー" (fū) is used to Japanese to represent the Chinese "風" (feng), for "wind."  The only kanji I can find for a so-called "Chinese-style" Japanese reading (on'yomi) is "具" (Pinyin jù) among its meanings "tool," "untensil," "means (of)," "possess," and "ingredients."
The point is, should we mention Jù-feng or similar as a Romanization of his name?—ウルタプ 05:24, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Is it worth mentioning that when Vaati is defeated in FSA, after the smoke clears you can see the same shockwave-thingies that appear when the Dark World is entered? You have no proof it was me. 16:44, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: No, of course not. By the way, the same shockwave style is used by the Magic Hammer's charge attack. --220.237.67.125 15:26, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Death" 

message: If my audio receptors are serving me well, I believe the laugh associated with Vaati is none other than the Happy Mask Salesman's chuckle. Interesting Trivia tid-bit, perhaps? Commander Regulus 08:07, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

message: Alright, who took down the trivia tid-bit concerning Vaati's "cameo" in Oot? That was presented rather neutrally in my opinion. It wasn't the ravings of some conspiracy theorist. I think there is no reason to take that down. Commander Regulus 04:45, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Prove it's notable or else don't put it in.  If you can find some official source which speculates on this, then it's noteworthy.  If not, it's cruft. 199.126.137.209 10:19, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Vaati's "Appearance" in Oot 

message: For some reason, people seem to think that the trivia section is a dumping ground for anything that 1 random Zelda fan can think of.  Saying things like how Vaati has more earth based attacks despite being a wind mage is not noteworthy and is not trivia.  Saying some image from a wall from OoT looks like Vaati is not important or interesting to anyone other than a few fans.  Keep these things in the forums on GameFaqs where people actually care. 199.126.137.209 10:25, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

text: The OoT pic should not be included because we have no way of knowing it's Vaati. That's the plain and simple of it. If it was trivia about VAATI, we could put it in - but as it is, it's trivia that MIGHT be about Vaati. There is a huge difference there - the earth-based thing we can confirm (though that's only really there in TMC - in both FS games, he uses tornadoes and everything), since WE KNOW THAT IT IS VAATI. The OoT thing is highly unlikely (FS wasn't even in planning then - why would they already have Vaati's design done? If it's not a Tektite or something similar, it's probably a doodle of Dethl, the final boss of the game released RIGHT BEFORE OoT, or, maybe, JUST A DOODLE OR FALSE POSITIVE!KrytenKoro 23:24, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
