The Ocarina of Time Remake is taking over social media as players share their experiences traversing through the well-worn paths of Hyrule three decades after the first game was released — but it’s got a few new features that are sending fans into a tizzy.

For one, the new Ocarina remake has an option that lets players use the Nintendo Switch 2’s built-in microphone to hum, whistle, sing, or play an actual instrument to produce the tunes that Link plays on his Ocarina, rather than pushing corresponding buttons on the console’s controller. This feature isn’t exactly fine-tuned, as players have uploaded oodles of videos showing themselves singing completely different songs that somehow seem to work.

One of these humorous videos has gone viral on social media, leaving players totally shocked that it actually gets the intended result. On Twitter/X, a user named ‘Rubix’ discovered that a well-known meme from Family Guy is close enough to Epona’s Song that it actually summons Link’s trusty steed.

As it turns out, saying, “Petah, the horse is here,” in the voice of Lois Griffin while the game is in microphone mode gets recognized as Epona’s Song, allowing you to successfully call your pony. It’s worth noting that the console matches a specific song to the tune of whatever you’re singing or humming (or, in this case, saying in a nasally Long Island accent), provided it’s a close enough match — and apparently, this famous line was a dead ringer for Epona’s Song.
