Over the course of this four part series, Mases and Gooey will discuss and rank all of the single player games in the main Legend of Zelda series. Each episode we will pick four games at random and we must come to an agreement on where it will be placed on our list! In this episode we start off with Spirit Tracks, Zelda II, Oracle of Ages, and Oracle of Seasons. What do you think of our list? How would…
Here at Zelda Dungeon, we have all sorts of tips, trick, bestiaries, item lists and comprehensive walkthroughs. Believe it or not, there used to be a time when things like the internet did not exist. Everything a person learned about a Zelda game all came through either word of mouth, the Nintendo Power magazine, or from buying a player’s guide. Now imagine you lived in this time, had no friends who liked Zelda as much as you, and you couldn’t afford a guide book. Which Zelda game,…
It was in Breath of the Wild that we were first introduced to the race of Leviathans, a species of giant whale-like creatures. Breath of the Wild features three Leviathans, each speculated to have been killed by a different cataclysmic event, a skeleton in the Gerudo Desert killed by prolonged drought, one in the Hebra Mountains killed by a severe ice age, and the third in the Eldin Mountains killed by a volcanic eruption. This, however, is not the first appearance of these…
With the release of Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition on the Switch and the new outfits and entire cast featured in the game, it got me thinking about the possibilities of including more DLC characters that weren’t in any of the previous installments for Hyrule Warriors. While the Oracles Nayru and Din would be cool editions to represent the Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons games, I think my first choice for entirely new characters would be the Golden Goddesses….
Zelda Dungeon had a great marathon in 2017, and 2018 is shaping up to be an even bigger event! We have a big roster of Zelda Dungeon staff members from previous marathons as well as an injection of new talent this year. If you have a favorite ZD team member you’d like to follow along during the marathon, check out what games they will be playing at the marathon this year! Be sure to check us out on our Twitch…
Across several games, time travel is an important component of the story. Ocarina of Time, Majora’s Mask, Oracle of Ages, and Skyward Sword all utilize aspects of time travel to tell their stories, and they all do it well. Each game takes advantage of the unique situations that time traveling can bring, influencing the characters and the story significantly as a result. Even on a smaller scale, time travel reappears in Twilight Princess, and while it is largely for the…
The My Nintendo Rewards system has been a mixed bag ever since replacing the old Club Nintendo program. That’s not to stay it still isn’t worth shopping around with, as there can be some good deals lurking around. Take Zelda for instance, as this month there is a whole goodie bag’s worth of deals thanks to the rewards program. With the upcoming U.S. release of Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition, the Big N has decided to make May all about Zelda,…
The Zelda series primarily takes place in the ever-changing landscape of Hyrule, although there are notable instances where Link explores new worlds. From the apocalyptic Termina in Majora’s Mask to the Dark World in A Link to the Past and its sequel, A Link Between Worlds, Holodrum and Labrynna in Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages, and even the surreal Koholint Island in Link’s Awakening, an alternate setting has often proven to be a welcome change of pace. I’ve…

Now Playing Unlike other major speedrunning marathons, ZSRM18 is entirely held online,…
Buckle in for part two of our double feature Friday night Champions’ flick. We wanted to do a bonus episode to make up for missing last week, but didn’t have any good ideas for what we wanted to talk about, so we did what any self respecting podcast hosts would do: took the easy way out and just had everyone ask us a bunch of questions! That’s right, It’s mailbag time, as we delve into which Champion power is the…
