Pawn Stars is a reality show here in the States about a family-owned pawn shop and all the characters who come in to sell their precious heirlooms for chump change. TheGameStation, creators of The Street Fighter drama series, has taken Pawn Stars' shop co-owner Rick and set him in a world where broke-ass videogame stars exchange their dignity for cash.
I had a few hearty, genuine laughs at this one. Link whips out his Triforce of Courage, thinks he can get up to 3000 rupees for it, but only asks for 500 because his wallet can't carry more than that. Ha!
Tony Ponce (aka megaStryke) is a culturally confused, Canadian-born Puerto Rican who grew up in Japan and South Florida ... yet can only speak English. He specializes in writing features and maintaining an immaculate goatee. Likes: Any and all things related to Mega Man, Contra, Castlevania, 2D, PB&J sandwiches, applesauce, and candy corn.

That was PERFECT. I mean, it just completely captures the utter vanilla douchity that is a History Channel reality show. Like an even more brainless HGTV or TLC reality show. *Shudders.
That was a pretty good parody of Pawn Stars. Woulda been more realistic if he called in an expert. I would've died of laughter if he brought in Sahasrahla.

Well your downplaying another fact too: Its more-so about the history of the item itself then the people. Yeah, the owners of the shop do goofy shit, sometimes they bicker (but I've never seen an outright fight in the vain of an American Choppers episode), and sometimes the people who come into the shop are strange, but the item thats being pawned or sold is what usually gets the biggest focus.
Any way, judging by the header image, that was only a Triforce piece. I mean, if it wasn't then it'd be much bigger. Like, at least as big, if not bigger, then Links head. Maybe he's Pawning it out a piece at a time for a bigger reward? Spread the wealth a little?
I don't get it. Link can't run out of money. All he has to do is go into strangers houses and smash their pots until he finds the ones with rupees in it. Why doesn't he just do that instead?
...Is what I typed out before I actually watched the video. Well done, sirs.

I believe it's called a skull cap.

As unfunny as those shows, huh? So in other words, VERY funny. Gotcha.
Unfunny is an absolute state and not subject to degradation.
