Connections between the Legend of Zelda and Mario series

Because the Legend of Zelda series and the Super Mario series are so popular, elements from each game have been used in the other game.

Mario in Legend of Zelda

 * In Ocarina of Time, pictures of Mario, Luigi, Peach, Yoshi, and Bowser appear in Hyrule Castle. However, there is no way to enter the castle to get a closer look.
 * The Deku Shrubs somewhat resemble Snifits.
 * There is an enemy in Ocarina of Time onward that resembles the Piranha Plant
 * Talon and Ingo resemble Mario and Luigi.

Zelda in Super Mario

 * In Super Mario RPG, Link will make a cameo in one of the inns. Walking up to him and pressing A will make the sound usually associated with a puzzle being solved (such as a door being opened)
