The sad thing is, my old college roommate actually did play through the original Zelda (getting all the way to Ganon) without getting a sword. It’s a thing you can actually do! Talk about hard mode. Of course you do need to pick up a few items other than just the “smashing board!”

Email your video game related LOLZ to and if it's good we'll post it!
Did you know the site has over 2,500 video game themed lolz? 
I played through Phantom Hourglass & Spirit Tracks without getting a shield. No biggie.
Must have taken this instead http://icanhascheezburger.com/2007/02/09/its-dang…
So what?
I can kill over a million puppies in under twelve seconds…without a sword.or any sort of weapon.
I just sort of smile at them.
That's the sharpest shield I've ever seen.
WARNING! CHALLENGER APPROACHING!
Smashboard Link.
And he will be as OP as f*ck.
Psh, break that against the nearest hard surface and you've got yourself a new set of brass knuckles.
Or porcelain knuckles in this case.
Ultimate source of power my ass.
Spanky Smashy counts as defence… right?
and that is how my puppy died
although….. he was rapping…..
the real reason the mirror shield is so effective is because the edges of it are sharpened to the point where it can cut diamonds
He's looking up to Gordon Freeman. Taking up nothing but one item like a man..
And thus the legendary Smashing Board was placed in the new Temple of Crushed Bones, after the legendary sword was thrown out. Some say that -like the source of ultimate power- it was thrown into a recycling bin and made a really nice drink can.
It's dangerous to go alone, drink this! rel="nofollow">…Ladies.
That was pretty funny….Ladies
+1 for you… ladies
…DAT ASS!!!
The small smashing board, too; not the big one. Pro.
It cost Kaiba $400,000 to kill a million puppies, in twelve seconds.
It's a shield dammit! Why can't you-- wait, what are you doing? Oh no. Don't come here, and put away that shie- I meant smashing board. See? I said smashing board, so let's be friends again. Please? Oh triforce, no. No! NO! NOOOOOOOO-
*the whackings of a smashing board echoes through the dungeon*
Sometimes, the best offense is a good… uh…
Screw the costs, he got money!
Chaos emeralds? Master balls?! Psssh! With my handy dandy smashing board, nothing can possibly go wrong.

The shield can now cut diamonds.
Anything is possible when you smell like potions.
I'm on Epona.
And this is the first time that anyone used my submission to support a comment.
Thank you my kind good sir.
I have no idea which is scarier:
rapping dogs from the early 20th century
or
this: rel="nofollow">
This may be unwanted and cause an army of -1 trolls to attempt to drain my infinite reserves of epeen (seconded only to my infinite plus reserves of money), but…
if Link played runescape as a pker, all the little babies would be screaming that his shield needed to be nerfed like the barrelchest anchor. They'd also bitch about the fact that they got their asses cut open and served on a golden triforce platter by a SHIELD.
And next you'll tell me that in borderlands you were supposed to get a gun? Hahahahaha I thought the knife and the throwable eagle were the main weapons. No wonder it was so damn hard.
OOOH I know this one! It's a shotgun! right?
But i don't think that applies during a ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE.
Ya I only picked up the SMG! I'm pro!!! :P wait what crowbar?
We're on the internet.
Oak wont let you leave without one…
….RAGE…Brooklyn Rage~! (Don't know how to make it Hyperlink XP)

NOW DO EET.
Can't let you Lady that …Ladies.
No spaces after the < and before the >, though
Goofy fought with shields before it was cool.
I wouldn't trust him, he less nurturing than a desert. rel="nofollow"> rel="nofollow">…
But how do you turn the link into other text?
rel="nofollow">
Enter it after the closing bracket, and then follow up with < /a >, but without the spaces.
…Ladies.
All in favor of Link getting the Smashing Board in Skyward Sword, please say "aye".
I think Spoonyone said it best.
"BITCH I GOT A BOMB!"
so what do you do to kill the monsters?
Yeah, but he'd probably throw that away to….
Swordless and powerless link IS PIMP!!!
Do I smell a new meme… ladies?
+1 "Aye!!!" All in favor of the secret Skyward Smash attack say "aye".
"A good defense is a strong offense." -Anonymous
Shadow, put the gun down…and back away slowly…
i was playing Gear2 co-op with my bro and i found out i could do an execution with the mauler shield… and i was like 'nah, smashing board'
I think we do… ladies.
