Category: The Champions’ Cast

92 episodes in and we finally have an episode of the Champions’ Cast all about… the Champions! Mipha, Urbosa, Daruk, and Revali – what did we like from them, is there any chance we see them in the sequel, did we like their send off in Breath of the Wild? Sidon, Riju, Yunobo, and Teba – what do we want from them in the sequel, what would make them stand out more, and should they be playable characters? All this,…

This week, we have a very special show for everyone – a question mailbag episode! We take all of YOUR questions and answer them in a fun back and forth that features a new special guest on the show, Brittany Reginelli! Should Link and Zelda have a kid? What’s one mechanic from one Zelda we’d like to see in another? Are classic 2D games dead? Should the new Champions from Breath of the Wild play a large role in the…

We’re back and kicking off 2020 in a hot way by going nearly an hour and half talking about the supposed back sheep of the Zelda series… Zelda II Adventure of Link! Somehow, we convinced Mases to join us two weeks in a row to deep dive into the second NES Zelda title. What did we love? What do we hate? Is this game as bad as people say? Can a new player realistically enjoy it in 202? And most…

Happy New Year everyone! Thanks for listening to the show all year and helping us have our best year yet! We thought we’d start off the new decade right by speculating what we expect and want to see from Zelda inn 2020. Does Breath of the Wild 2 come out? What about Skyward Sword HD? More Cadence of Hyrule? How about a Zelda Dungeon Maker? New Zelda characters in Smash? Plus, what about Nintendo itself in the New Year? Mases…

So… the Game Awards. Yikes. As you no doubt know by now, the Game Awards offered Nintendo fans a whole big steaming plate of nothing, offering three and a half hours worth of content with exactly zero really notable Nintendo announcements. In this weeks sow, we talk about our reactions and how long into the show until we all started drinking (spoiler: not long). All this, plus looking back on the year that was for the Nintendo Switch! We talk…

Hello and welcome to another episode! This weeks show is all about the Game Awards – predicting the winners, talking about how much Fire Emblem Three Houses was snubbed, speculating on the last Smash Bros. DLC character, and asking the million dollar question: do we see Breath of the Wild 2?! Join us as we have some fun talking about gaming’s biggest award show of the year!   Podbean | iTunes | Download Follow the Champions’ Cast on Twitter: Andy Spiteri – @Spiteri316 Kevin O’Rourke…

Zelda Dungeon recently launched its biggest feature of the year with its Best Zelda Ever 2019 Edition List, so the crew get together and weight in on what they think of each games placement. How did Twilight Princess rank so high? How did Skyward Sword rank so low? Do too many people have rosy colored glasses when it comes to A Link to the Past? And most importantly – how does Kevin live with himself ranking Tri Force Heroes as…

Put your fighting gloves on ’cause it’s time to pick your side in the Zelda Dungeon Civil War! With Best Zelda Ever 2019 coming this week, Andy, Alasyn, and Rod reflect on the most divisive Zelda game ever: Skyward Sword. You either love it or you hate it, and we examine why that is. Does Demise undermine Ganon? Were the controls really that bad? Is Fi the best or worst companion? Where do we fall on narrative vs exploration? These…

Hello everybody and welcome to The Champions’ Cast Pokémon Cast! With not a lot of Zelda news going on, the crew decides to deep dive into the world of Pokémon Sword and Shield! What are our initial impressions? Do we like the Galar region? What aspects of these games remind us of Breath of the Wild? Is this game groundbreaking enough to be called “the BOTW of Pokémon“? Maybe most importantly, is Hop the most annoying character Nintendo has ever…
