The sad thing is, my old college roommate actually did play through the original Zelda (getting all the way to Ganon) without getting a sword. It’s a thing you can actually do! Talk about hard mode. Of course you do need to pick up a few items other than just the “smashing board!”

I played through Phantom Hourglass & Spirit Tracks without getting a shield. No biggie.
Must have taken this instead http://icanhascheezburger.com/2007/02/09/its-dang…
So what?
I can kill over a million puppies in under twelve seconds…without a sword.or any sort of weapon.
I just sort of smile at them.
That's the sharpest shield I've ever seen.
WARNING! CHALLENGER APPROACHING!
Smashboard Link.
And he will be as OP as f*ck.
Psh, break that against the nearest hard surface and you've got yourself a new set of brass knuckles.
Or porcelain knuckles in this case.
Ultimate source of power my ass.
Spanky Smashy counts as defence… right?
And thus the legendary Smashing Board was placed in the new Temple of Crushed Bones, after the legendary sword was thrown out. Some say that -like the source of ultimate power- it was thrown into a recycling bin and made a really nice drink can.
It's dangerous to go alone, drink this! rel="nofollow">…Ladies.
Sometimes, the best offense is a good… uh…
Chaos emeralds? Master balls?! Psssh! With my handy dandy smashing board, nothing can possibly go wrong.
And this is the first time that anyone used my submission to support a comment.
Thank you my kind good sir.
And next you'll tell me that in borderlands you were supposed to get a gun? Hahahahaha I thought the knife and the throwable eagle were the main weapons. No wonder it was so damn hard.
Oak wont let you leave without one…
Goofy fought with shields before it was cool.
All in favor of Link getting the Smashing Board in Skyward Sword, please say "aye".
I think Spoonyone said it best.
"BITCH I GOT A BOMB!"
so what do you do to kill the monsters?
Swordless and powerless link IS PIMP!!!
i was playing Gear2 co-op with my bro and i found out i could do an execution with the mauler shield… and i was like 'nah, smashing board'
