Tears of the Kingdom’s Fuse ability turns the game into Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater
Shield surfing returns in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, but with Link’s new powers, he’s turned into a full on skater boy.
It seems that there’s a limitless number of activities to do in this updated version of Breath of the Wild’s Hyrule. Whether it’s making a whole bunch of wacky and wonderful creations (and some rather obscene ones), or just simply proving that there isn’t a “right” way to play the game. But the hottest trend taking over the hills of Hyrule? Skateboarding. In the first game, you could do a cool flip to get Link on his shield to surf down mountains, snowy slopes, or sandy dunes. But now, players are using Link’s Fuse ability to make flat out skateboards.
The thing about Tears of the Kingdom, is that if an object can be interacted with through Link’s Ultrahand ability, you can also do so with any of his other abilities, including Fuse. So that means you can do things like sticking a rock on the end of your sword, or firing off an arrow with a mushroom on its tip. It also means that you can attach a mine- or regular cart to your shield, which players have quickly found is the sickest way to get around Hyrule.

Trump hawks crappy NFTs in ‘SNL’ cold open
Things under former President Donald Trump were often so strange that Saturday Night Live hardly had to fuss about reality to turn the reality star into a joke.
And, well, they were up to their old tricks on Saturday night. Fantastic impressionist and cast member James Austin Johnson opened the show as Trump, hawking crappy, cartoonish NFTs, which of course, the real former president did.
The show’s cold open featured Johnson as Trump doing an infomercial for the trading card NFTs.
“Trump cards are each $99, which seems like a lot,” Johnson says. “Seems like a scam, and in many ways it is, but we love Trump cards.”
One hallmark of Johnson’s version of Trump is that he’s absurd. Well, absurd in a different way than the real former president. True to form, Johnson’s Trump launches into an explanation of his NFTs that touches on Pokémon, Avatar, and Ron DeSantis looking like a Roblox.
Per usual, Johnson’s impression was a delight and you just never know where things are going to go until he gets there. Most hilarious of all, perhaps, is the impossibility of parsing what SNL made up and what came from reality. The NFT cards from the real world were just that crappy and weird.
