Fans Want Robin Williams Memorialized In Upcoming Legend Of Zelda Game

Following Robin Williams' death earlier in the week, a petition has been gaining supporters who want Williams to be memorialized in the upcoming Legend of Zelda game. The petition on change.org has accrued more than 90,000 +  supporters as of writing this, and impels Nintendo to include the iconic comedian as a character named "Robin" in the Legend of Zelda title on the Wii U. "He won't get to play it, but he'll live on forever in a universe he always loved," as it says on the petition page. Robin Williams was a fan of The Legend Of Zelda series since 1987, and even named his daughter after the franchise's princess. The father and daughter team were also recently hired to promotion for The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D.
