The year is 2024. Video games are pushing graphical and technological boundaries, constantly broadening our perspective on what the medium is capable of. New hardware and AI technology open the door for new possibilities as we creep ever closer to games that are indistinguishable from real life. Amidst this sea of innovation, a new Game Boy game was released. No, I didn’t say a Game Boy-inspired game, but a real, bona fide Game Boy game. Developed by Pie For Breakfast…

Since the era of the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360, Sony and Microsoft having implemented achievement systems on their consoles which provide an incentive for players to achieve unique or impressive feats, and to track progression in games. The most common achievements — or “Trophies”, as they are called at Sony — are unlocked by defeating bosses, racking up high scores in mini games, or by finishing the game at varying difficulties. Others require the player to perform actions that…

We are in the age of remasters and remakes.

Disney continues their mission of…

The Legend of Zelda fans were feasting in 2011. With the series celebrating its 25th anniversary that year, Nintendo pulled out all the stops to make sure every corner of the fanbase was well fed on Zelda goodness. Ocarina of Time 3D — a remake long desired by fans — released that June, Skyward Sword — the first home console Zelda game in five years — released that November, Hyrule Historia — and the official Zelda timeline with it —…

The Zelda series is full of vibrant starting areas that make you feel right at home. From the lush Kokiri Forest in Ocarina of Time to the majestic islands of Skyloft in Skyward Sword, there are plenty of places I would pack my bags for and visit in a heartbeat. There are, however, a few in-game starter locales that don’t quite make my bucket list. Hyrule in A Link Between Worlds/A Link to the Past, for instance, doesn’t quite hit…

Producer and musician Helynt is no stranger to Zelda music, having released such high-profile Zelda fan albums as 2020’s Legend of Synthwave and 2022’s Zelda’s Memories. And his new album, Legend of Chillwave, features tracks from an array of Zelda titles, ranging from Link’s Awakening to Tears of the Kingdom, and is dripping with 1980s vibes. Legend of Chillwave debuted on record label GameChops’ YouTube channel earlier this month. The whole album’s a retrofuture experience. From Helynt’s hazy, dreamy arrangements and production, to…

If you ask Zelda fans what their favorite game in the series is, you’ll find that many pick the first Zelda game that they completed. My first Zelda game was Breath of the Wild in 2017, despite me being in my early 30s at the time and a gamer since childhood. Though I never experienced Zelda as a kid, I have a son who is eight years old and a big Zelda fan. He loves reading the Hyrule Historia trilogy…

Growing up, one of my favorite places to go to any time I would visit the mall was Tilt Arcade. No matter if I was broke, or had the money to try my hand at just one cabinet, it was always a joy just to be there. The lights, the sounds, and the noises you could only hear at an arcade are what truly stands out from my experiences there. Nowadays, arcades have become more of a novelty than a…
