The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker

The Wind Waker

The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker is an action/RPG released in March 2003 for the GameCube. It is the tenth game in the Zelda series, and, from a speed-running perspective, very very long.

Speed Runs

Runs through Wind Waker are handled by the Speed Demos Archive.

The fastest complete run through Wind Waker is 6 hours 42 minutes, attained by Mike Damiani on 18th April 2005, in 22 segments.

A single-segment run has yet to be completed, largely because its length would likely exceed 7 hours, which is the soft upper limit on the length of runs accepted at SDA.

No 100% runs of Wind Waker are in the works. As Wind Waker contains a truly preposterous amount of things to collect, a 100% run - even segmented, and even using the most charitable definition of "100%" - would also likely exceed the 7 hour mark by a wide margin. Indeed, a truly complete 100% run would likely last more than 100 hours.
