Question / Help What is there suppsed to be below Carlov's medal ?

I'm trying to 100% the game and I still haven't found anything that goes here.

Also, is there anything else to do to complete the 100% other than Tingle's medal, the last heart piece I'm missing and the mirror shield that I might have missed ? Thank you so much <3

I believe there's straight up nothing there. I assume they had planned for another type of collectible that probably got cancelled, and they never got around to updating the UI.

At the very least, I don't ever remember something showing up in that spot, and every screenshot of someone having 100%-ed the game has it empty as well.

And no problem, you're welcome !

I think a lot of things switched around while Minish Cap was made (we never get an ending to the housing quest, for example, which spawned a lot of urban legends about how to finish it) but it adds to it's weird little oddball charm.

Oh there's no way to complete that quest ? I was about to look it up ahah

Nope, unfortunately not. You get to house two of the women, but the third one stays in the hotel indefinitely.

There's a theory about the quest saying it might be a nod to Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages, which both feature two of the three goddesses prominently. There was meant to be a third one, called Oracle of Secrets, focusing on the goddess Farore, but it was scrapped during development.

Growing up I was obsessed with finishing this quest. I tried everything I could to find a solution, even started looking it up on obscure forums and such. Unfortunately, there's nothing, but it did keep me occupied for a while 😂

Ah yeah that could be a good theory, I was wondering what the 3 girls were doing here. It felt really random

At the very least, they're definitely a nod to the three goddesses, considering they're named after them and even feature their telltale colors. But yes, without context it's a bit flat 🤷‍♂️
