Falling off cliffs in Zelda and Metroid.

Samus could just use the grapple beam to get back up..

Are we -really- doing an analysis of the technical aspects of Zelda and Metroid?

Because that's a road we don't want to go down unless we want to talk about swords through the forehead resulting in no blood spurt, the physics of a Power Suit, much less an Ice Beam, and so forth.

Yes, because it's fun!

The answer is quite simple.

Everytime you fall off of a cliff you enter the Pacman dimension. In the pacman dimension your character goes to the other side of the wall, and instead of going out the other side, goes back to the top of the cliff in question.

The loss of life is a result of falling mixed with collision with ghosts in the pacman dimension.

See, elementary my dear Watson.

I was going to say they climb all the way up the cliff, but I like that idea the best.

Not if it's before she got the grapple beam.

And with that logic, Link can also use the hookshot.

4:00-4:30.

That's exactly how they do it.
