The run-up to the holiday season has definitely begun, and no doubt there are millions of people across the globe who once again have to face the yearly struggle of thinking up suitable gift ideas for those gaming fans in their lives. If you’re looking for something original, Fangamer have an excellent range of prints and posters which would make the perfect gift for any Zelda fan looking for an alternative to the standard yearly addition to their video-game back-catalogue….

These swords were forged 5,000 years ago in what is today Turkey. Currently, they are the oldest swords to be discovered to date. The Aslantepe swords, as they have been called, are fascinating enough on their own, but what does this have to do with The Legend Zelda? If you take a look at the pictures, more than one sword has a Triforce on the hilt! Check out the jump for more pictures and information!

Well hey there, guys! Mailbag #89 is here. Before jumping into the questions I address something relating to the marathon last week, as well as correct myself on one of last week’s questions. As for the actual mailbag, this week we’ve got 14 questions, nice variety but with some particular attention on Ocarina of Time, Majora’s Mask and Skyward Sword. Enjoy, and be sure to tell me your thoughts in the comments. You can watch it here or check out…

An article was posted up on GameInformer by Dan Ryckert and in the article he talks about Four Swords Adventures, the Zelda game on the Gamecube where you could play with three other friends while adventuring around Hyrule. It had a single player mode, but it wasn’t as fun to play when compared to the multiplayer aspect. But in order to play the multiplayer mode, you had to have a Gameboy Advance for each player as well as a Gameboy…

 You may remember the Flipnote Studio contest Nintendo held for the release of Four Swords Adventures Anniversary Edition last month. Well, the results are in, and the winners have been posted on the Japanese site. And let me tell you, they are pretty impressive videos. I like the mix of videos here. Some, like the one in the top left corner, just look awesome and have some really cool visuals.  My favorites are probably the humorous ones, especially the one…

Hey guys, finally another new mailbag, Curiosity Shop #071. There’s just been an endless stream of Skyward Sword news lately, so again the mailbag focuses on that game, and to be honest that’ll likely be the case until a little while after the game comes out. Anyway, 10 questions in all, 8 of which are about Skyward Sword. Jump inside for a video embed! Questions and timestamps: (00:07) – Of all the Zelda games they could have brought back for…

We just reported on the release of Four Swords Anniversary in Australia and Europe, but we now have confirmation that it is now available in North America as well. Some of the staff have already downloaded the game through the Nintendo E-Shop and will be sharing our opinions on the release soon. Head on past the break to hear what I think about the new release.

Alright, after a bit of a longer wait that usual (hey, blame the news, guys), I’ve got a new mailbag for y’all! As I promised in my last video about all the news, this mailbag is mostly about Skyward Sword. There’s a handful of others, including one about Four Swords, but it’s primarily just Skyward Sword questions, focusing on some of the new news. 12 questions in all. Enjoy! Questions and timestamps: (00:20) – What is Epona’s gender? (00:44) –…

Alright, this is it! Tomorrow is E3! As far as Zelda Wii goes, we’ll finally get to find out if some of our theories are correct and if we’re getting what we want. So, while there’s no Curiosity Shop this week, I wanted to make this special video. I’ve made an assortment of 6 predictions about Zelda Wii. This is stuff I’m so certain of that I’d be willing to bet at least 4 of them will be true, if…

Whassup people? Got a slightly special mailbag for you this week! This one, except for two questions, is all about Zelda Wii! E3 is drawing near, so there’ll be a lot more to see when they reveal more on the game then, but for now I’ll try to talk about it as much as possible. The questions and their timestamps are: (00:06) – Did you like Chancellor Cole in Spirit Tracks? (00:34) – Do you like rolling in Zelda, and…
