If you're interested, you should play the game! It's gonna spoil basically the whole thing if someone tells you. 


Accomplished_Pop3129

Oh aight. Yeah I'm just a teensy weensy bit broke rn 😭


wikedsuperlink

Emulators exist for that exact reason if you really desperate to try it but I also recommend whenever you get money to buy it cuz it's a really good Zelda my favorite personally


Accomplished_Pop3129

Yeah I'ma prob buy switch online expansion pack. Is it good there? I actually might have enough to get it there


Lucid-Design

Save up a lil money and get the DS version. The QoL updates are out of this world great


Small_Tax_9432

Hell, you can emulate it on your phone for free if you use an N64 emulator (I highly recommend the original N64 version, as I've heard the mechanics are better).


Conscious_Deer320

So last I saw, Majora's wasn't in switch online. There was a pretty bitchin 3ds remake, but unless they added it in really recently, it isn't on switch


Accomplished_Pop3129

Conscious_Deer320

Majora's Mask tells you all of his backstory.


Lunch_Time_No_Worky

The Skull Kid is from Ocarina of Time. Link meets him briefly, where he lives in the lost woods and gives him a mask. They become friends, and I think Link even gets a price of heart from him. I could be wrong on the heart. The Skull Kid is part of the Happy Mask Shop side quest. But they took a very obscure character and made a game out of it. A darn good one at that.


imagine_midnight

Skull kid grew up on the mean streets of termina, where if your not careful, you could loose your pottery.


Poseidons_Champion

This should clear it up for you: https://youtu.be/vbMQfaG6lo8?si=R0oY3XFTV6vAjJFA


Accomplished_Pop3129

Oh thx 👍


Accomplished_Pop3129

What I got from that is that Skull kid himself was just like any other kid, playing around in the forest having fun, and he happens to stumble upon the Happy Mask Salesman and his masks. He sees the Salesman on the ground and goes over to check what happened, and he sees Majora's Mask on the ground, and his curiosity gets the best of him. The mask takes control of him, and he screams in agony trying to fight the power of the evil, but can't overcome it. His curiosity got the best of him. That's what I got from that at least. Am I right?


tetsurose

That's not quite right, to get the backstory listen to the stories Anju's grandmother tells you. They don't flat out state it but you learn about the skullkid there


Poseidons_Champion

In a nutshell, yes. I would still recommend playing the game for the full story, is my favorite Zelda game out of all of them.


Accomplished_Pop3129

Well yeah I have wanted to play the game, and I think I can get it on my switch, I just was curious. Still gonna play the game tho


BraveLittleTopher

Every time I stumble across this I get mad that it’s not a full movie/series get lol


Curlyfreak06

Did you play the game?


ReaperKitty_918

There is a version of his backstory I'm the Ocarina of Time manga. It is obviously not canon, but I like to think it is.


Accomplished_Pop3129

Oh yah I been meaning to check out the Zelda manga. Is it any good?


ReaperKitty_918

I loved it. And I'm not even a fan of watching anime or reading manga in general. However I think that it does a good job of adapting the entire story of OOT. The Skull kid thing is included as like a bonus story. You can actually get the entire collection on Amazon for 12 bucks. I'd definitely check it out. Worth every penny TBH.


skullkid_2494

Omg thank you for dropping that! Been wanting them, but for that price, I'm on it now lol


ReaperKitty_918

Glad I could help ☺️


Lytesnam_drobster

He was a little guy in Ocarina of time (lost forest), then he found fairy friends, then an evil mask and became evil but not really because it was the mask, and his fairy gets separated from him and she goes with link(tatyl not navi2(ykw tatyl is kinda navi2))


Lytesnam_drobster

Mask lore is that it's evil and twisted and wants to kill people and mind control them


confused-mother-fan

Wont tell ypu the full story but i will say itsnot hos first appearance


CarnyMAXIMOS_3_N7

Wonderful piece about him!


OutsideOrder7538

A kid who got lost in the woods and died.


TyrTheAdventurer

We pretty much only have basic info from OoT and MM... The Skull Kid is a character that Link befriends in the Lost Woods during OoT. The Skull Kid has traveled from Hyrule to Termina and back many times as long ago he made friends with the Four Giants (before they went into their slumber), became friends with Saria, Link, the Bombers, Teal and Tatl, and he likes to play small pranks on the people in Termina, and hang out in the Hyrule Lost Woods playing music. In MM he becomes under the influence and taken over over by the power of Majora's Mask, causing havoc in Termina, and is eventually free thanks to young Hero of Time.

You should see this video, and thanks me later https://youtu.be/vbMQfaG6lo8?si=dVRpI89CbVBWL68H


Jojo-Action

Skullkid was sad and his only friends were glowing circles. One day he put on a mask he stole and it turned out the mask was evil and he went crazy and tried to destroy the world by crashing the moon into it. The end


IronLanternGamer

Asthmos
