Another new discussion video, this time about Zelda Wii U! I’m sure most of you are familiar with the recent news on the subject, about Nintendo wanting to “rethink the conventions of Zelda” and their two examples of what they want to change. This video covers my thoughts and reactions to their sentiments, as well as my hopes and concerns for Zelda Wii U. Enjoy! You can watch the video here or check out the embed after the jump. Here’s…

Hey guys, new discussion video! This video’s about The Wind Waker HD, and how I feel it measures up to the original game’s visual design. Obviously the graphics are a big deal with the remake, but I had some thoughts on it that I wanted to share. You can watch the video here or check out the embed after the jump. The Wind Waker might be my least-favorite Zelda game, but it’s still a very impressive experience. I always felt…

Hey there guys! Another monster-themed video discussion for October. This one’s about the bosses though, and is my take on the topic of… what the bosses are supposed to be. I’ve brought it up on the mailbag in the past and Din and Rish talked about it in an episode of Z-Talk a while back, but this is my in-depth take on it, from a bit of a different perspective. You can watch it here or view the embed after…

Hey there guys! New video discussion. I want to talk about an observation I recently made regarding the series, which is that I think it’s rather flawed. This isn’t a hate video though; I think Zelda is a great series, and that’s the point of this video. The series is flawed, but great anyway, and I want to discuss that. Enjoy! You can watch the video here or check out the embed after the jump. It relates to a topic…

Hey guys! Got a new video discussion and this is a topic I think some of you have been waiting for me to cover. I’ve received the question many times now: “Which would you rather Nintendo remake, A Link to the Past or Majora’s Mask?” I’d been avoiding answering because I’ve been planning this video. This video covers exactly that subject. It’s a detailed list of reasons why. I will not be covering my thoughts on Majora’s Mask 3D much…

Alright, so following up on E3 earlier this week, this video is about The Legend of Zelda: Battle Quest, the minigame of sorts that comes along with Nintendo Land, a collection of similar minigames. We know Battle Quest is going to be a multiplayer game where you play between 1-3 adventurers and fight through levels in what looks to be linear stages. This video has me going over my thoughts on Battle Quest in general. You can watch the video…

Guns in Zelda

March 17 2012 by Axle D. Wilder

Alright, first video discussion in a while, and the topic this time is kind of a doozy. In this video I talk about firearms (guns) in the Zelda series. This is a topic that’s been debated about for a while now and is very controversial; a lot of people have a huge aversion to the idea. Other people don’t mind it. Seems like a worthwhile topic for a video, am I right? You can watch the video here or view…

Holiday Zelda Items

December 25 2010 by Axle D. Wilder

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, everyone! Here’s my, uhh, gift of sorts. Nah, just another video, although it’s a bit of a fun odd one. You’ll see once you start watching it, although obviously it’s about items and the holidays. So, can you guess the music playing? And if you could have a Zelda item in real life, what would you pick and why? And I guess what are your favorite items in the Zelda series? Tell me in the…

Alright guys, got a winter-themed video for you. This one’s kind of interesting, actually, because it’s not just about one simple topic. In this video I go into a lot of detail of two different themes in the Zelda games: Desolation and winter. I do cover a couple of other things in the process though, such as the scarcity of snow and winter themes in the Zelda games, and why ice is rarely evil used as an evil element. The…

Majora’s Origins

December 05 2010 by Axle D. Wilder

Alright guys, the last Majora’s Mask video. I intended to do it earlier DURING Majora’s Mask Month, but it didn’t work out. Still, here it is, finally, even if it is kinda late. Enjoy! So this video is about Majora’s origins, obviously. I’ve said it over and over again (including in this video), but Majora’s Mask was a mysterious game, and the true nature of Majora himself, the villain, is one of its greatest mysteries. But there are some hints…
