Curiosity Shop #074: Zelda Dungeon Mailbag

New mailbag, Curiosity Shop #074. This mailbag is even longer than the last! Maybe I’m getting better at squeezing in questions, or maybe I’m just getting a lot of simple questions. Haha, we’ll see I guess. 17 in all this time, surprisingly a little extra diverse and not only about Skyward Sword. All non-Skyward Sword questions are at the beginning, in case you don’t want spoilers. Video embed after the jump. Enjoy!

Questions and timestamps:

(00:12) – What is your favorite song in the series and why?
(00:49) – What would be a theme or gimmick you would like to see in a future Zelda game?
(01:56) – I get confused about the Zelda timeline a lot. Could you please explain it?
(02:03) – Would you like it if Nintendo took the time to create a more complex storyline?
(03:15) – Since Ganon died in TWW and TP do you think Nintendo is done with him as a character?
(04:18) – How come TP and SS keep the same names for areas but other games don’t?
(05:08) – How many dungeons do you predict Skyward Sword will have?
(05:19) – Do you think they will bring Epona back in SS?
(05:52) – In your last mailbag you said that you don’t think Majora will appear in SS. Why not?

(07:11) – Do you think the creature on the left of the Goddess in the SS Intro is a new race we’ve yet to see?
(07:56) – In SS can you only advance the day/night cycle in Skyloft or can you do it in the overworld too?
(08:22) – Do you think the ship in SS could be in the ocean-like place in the desert’s background?
(08:51) – Do you believe Castle Town or Hyrule Castle will appear as ruins in Skyward Sword?
(09:00) – ONM said the Sheikah woman is someone we might remember. Do you think this could mean she’s Impa?
