New Four Swords DS commercial features the death of Robin Williams' beard

See Link's most famous fans quibble about rupees and facial hair

Words: Tom_Goulter on October 4, 2011

Were you aware that The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Anniversary Edition went live for free download on eShop last week? Here's a timely reminder from the series' celebrity champions, Robin and Zelda Williams. Apparently the paired skills of father and daughter are ample competition against oktoroks, tektites and leevers too – but what about the feel good comedian's terrifying beard?

Besides reminding you of the considerable generosity inherent in Four Swords' complimentary download, the clip also provides a warning call for older, bearded men. Remember, one should never, ever bet his beard over a game with a younger, more agile gamer. Rest in piece, Robin Williams’ beard.

We just watched Awakenings in Psychology this morning. He looks reeeaally old now especially with his beard. Makes complete sense though because that movie was filmed in 1991 (I think?).

Why is this anything? "Robin Williams is known for his white puffy beard". No, he's not! Sorry, Im angry, I've been playing Dark Souls.

Robin Williams and his daughter HAVE to be in the commercial for Skyward Sword. In fact, he should be the new poster boy for the series.

He still looks cool without it. *raises flame shield* Also, I wonder if these two are going to continue doing ads for the Zelda series. I could see them doing Skyward Sword... (Also all the YouTube commenters are pervs.)

Robin Williams is awesome, its about time he was in a zelda commercial considering him and his daughter were big fans, the fact that he appeared in OOT 3D made the nostalgia even better. I hope he appears in Skyward Sword's Trailer

I really wish that 4 Swords had Wifi capabilities. The only friend I have with a 3DS lives in across the country...
