1:17 that one guy who wooted for 'Clash of Clans.' You only embarrassed yourself.

Clicked on this so fast when I saw Zoey, Zelda, and Conan.

She was cast so perfect for 500 days of summer. She's a real heart breaker.

My mother's name was Zelda... When I was a young boy with my NES and came across TLoZ, I liked to imagine my mother was the princess, and save her from Gannon...

R.I.P. Mom, you'll never be forgotten.

If we isolate cuteness as a variable in human attractiveness, she has more of it than anyone else on Earth, it's like every cuteness gene is maxed out.

Zelda: thundrous applause
Clash of Clans: a single “woop” by a sad, lonely man

[gcarsk]

She’s talking about Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, for those wondering which specific Zelda game she’s referring to.

[taylorh.]

She looks like the adorable/beautiful long time best friend that the main character was meant to be with all along.

[mickeyrube]

But the real question is: is Conan a Zoey or a Zelda?

[merlen]

I've never heard someone laugh "hehehe" unironically 1:08

I always loved Zooey, she is so genuine, so funny, genuinely interesting to listen too. And of course talented! Huge fan of New Girl too! Conan and Zooey probably two of my all time favourite!

[selfdiscardedkingofruin]

I used to be so obsessed with that game that when I went outside I would look around at Bush's looking for jewels

[jtw.]

When I think of Zooey as a kid I’m just picturing the actress that played the young Jess in New Girl flashbacks lmao

[richardkempton]

"Uh.. it's pure magic" lol

[dale]

man i can never get over how stunning Zooey is, she's just 1 of the sweetest adorable people ever, i always just get lost in her eyes

[bookerdewitt]

She gave the Nintendo away at the age of 12
Damn! At that age all I knew was I played 6 hours of sonic heroes...so tomorrow I have to play for 4 hours because my eyes hurts

[JianimalGaming]

Would like to see her on Clueless Gamer!! Maybe for the Zelda Breath of the Wild 2!

Beating Link to the Past, back in the day was one of the most amazing things ever. I don't think any games had endings like it at that point, the only thing it was missing was a post credits scene but man, that ending music with the credits after seeing Hyrule back in a good place....no wonder she was Obsessed with it! I bet a younger actress who was into Zelda would have a similar experience with Ocarina of Time....amazing experiences!

[Kobupon_]

I just come because "A Link to The Past".

[starsroof_]

i like how they talked close to nothing about zelda.
