Another slow week of Zelda news makes way for us to dip into one of our oldest bag of tricks and answer Daily Debate questions from our amazing Zelda Dungeon writing staff! Would Link and Zelda swapping roles be compelling? What do we want DLC to look like in the future? What’s the most excited we’ve ever been for a Zelda game? What’s our favorite version of the dead man’s volley? Best physical pre-order bonus? This is only a peak…
Which version of Impa reigns supreme within the Zelda series? Join Andy and Al this week as they discuss their takes and rank the many iterations of this beloved character, from her humble beginnings in The Legend of Zelda, to her latest, action-packed role in Age of Calamity. Find out if you agree with their list in the end, or if you prefer a different choice at the top! And of course, feel free to join them in their discussion–…
Another week goes by, another week with no Zelda news. In order to pas the time and entertain ourselves, Andy and Al are joined by Gooey Fame to answer some Zelda-themed “would you rather” questions. Would we rather see a live action or animated Zelda movie? Would we rather hang out at Telma’s Bar or the Lofty Pumpkin? Would we rather every new Zelda game play like Tri Force Heroes or look like Twilight Princess? Would we rather work for…
The second batch of DLC for Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, called Guardian of Remembrance, dropped last month, promising new vignettes, playable characters, stages, abilities, and more. Was the DLC a smashing success? Well, not exactly. This week, come listen to the gang as they lay out their problems with Age of Calamity’s story, discuss the new playable characters, go over the missions and where they fell short, ponder the timing of introducing ultimate weapons, and wonder out loud “what…
Happy Halloween Zelda fans! Get into the spooky mode by celebrating some of the scariest and creepiest dungeons and areas in the Zelda series. We are definitively ranking them to figure out what is the absolute creepiest of them all. From heavy hitters like the Shadow Temple and Arbiters Grounds to lessor known dungeons like Phantom Hourglass’s Ghost Ship or Oracle of Seasons’ Explorer’s Crypt, all the way back to area’s with creepy vibes like Ikana Castle or The Minish…
With another slow news week in the world of Zelda rolling on by, we decided to pass the time by bringing back an old favorite: Guess That Zelda ____! This time, we’ve decided to try and stump each other by picking some of the dungeons (and mini-dungeons) of the series. Joined by our own Skull Kid Nico, we activate what we’re calling Fusion Difficulty (thanks Metroid!) and limiting ourselves to only 10 questions instead of the usual 16 to get…
Buckle in, because we have an action packed show for you today! We asked you to give us your best Majora’s Mask questions and as usually, you did not disappoint! What would a Rito transformation mask have looked like? Is there any reason to ever come back to Termina? Where does Skull Kid rank on the list on non-Ganon Zelda villains? What do we make of the “Link is dead” theory? What’s a sidequest that could have been improved? Which…
So, full disclosure: this is more an episode about Metroid from a Zelda fans perspective than an episode about Zelda itself, so if you’re looking for in depth Zelda, come back next week (when, by the way, we’re answering Majora’s Mask questions, so if you have any, make sure to ask us on Discord!). This week, we’re celebrating the release of Metroid Dread by looking back and examining why it is that Zelda took off as a series and Metroid…
Gather round the fire and prepare to be enraged as the gang gets together and debates which Zelda games have the best OST’s. We’re tackling a bunch of different topics that were a lot of fun, including: does one great song redeem the Spirit Tracks OST? How has our opinions on Breath of the Wild’s ambient music changed over the years? Is the music of Tri Force Heroes its one redeemable quality? Which Zelda game gets the S-Tier crown? Can…
We had our usual September Nintendo Direct, and while it didn’t necessarily blow the roof off the house, it was still a solid show that gave us a look at a lot of cool stuff! Come listen as we break down and react to the announcements, including our thoughts on the Mario movie and casting voice actors versus celebrities, if you should be mad that Nintendo 64 games coming to NSO will cost you more money, Andy’s scathing rant on…
