Haven’t had a chance to grab The Minish Cap since it was released on the Virtual Console for Wii U in 2014? Now is a fantastic opportunity to do so as it currently has a $2.49 discount as part of the Winter Warm-Up eShop sale. Originally released back in 2004, it is considered one of the best 2D Zelda games.

The sale is in its third and final week…

During the half hour Hyrule Warriors Legends livestream that Koei Tecmo held today, the team showed off the game’s snazzy character-filled 3DS theme. The theme is basically just a background image on the home screen that slides along with the 3DS when swiped to reveal more of the picture before looping back around. As mentioned, the image is chock full of characters from the game; all of the playable characters reside on the top screen, and the bottom screen is…

Despite Tri Force Heroes just having been released and Hyrule Warriors Legends swiftly heading our way, some Zelda fans already have their eyes set on the rumored Twilight Princess HD. There are good pieces of evidence supporting the possibility of this game being released on Wii U fairly soon, but nothing has been confirmed. Nevertheless, the Zelda community can’t stop talking about it. Thus in a recent Podcast, IGN’s Nintendo Voice Chat asked a question that struck me, “Do We…

Tri Force Heroes releases next week, and as can be seen on NeoGAF, people in North america are now receiving download codes to play demos of the game. As with past game demos, recipients are given three individual codes to share with friends. Hopefully you are one of the people to get some codes (it is not clear how they are decided), but if not, look out online for people giving some away! Here are the times when people will…

Since yesterday’s discovery of a Twilight Princess icon on the Wii U eShop, speculation regarding the prospect of an HD remake has run rampant. Several pundits within the Zelda fan community, including HMK and the folks at GameXplain, have chimed in with their thoughts. Take a listen, as well as read my senseless conjecture, after the jump!

We have just shy of two weeks before Tri Force Heroes releases on 3DS, but for those of you in North America who are looking to buy it digitally, you can now pre-load it through the 3DS eShop! Paying the $49.99 price right now lets you pre-load now, and come release on October 23 at midnight, there will be a small update, and you will then be able to start playing right away. So if you are ready to play…

For the sixth week in a row, the first 3D Zelda title, Ocarina of Time, is still in second place in the Wii U eShop sales charts. As we stated before, Ocarina of Time simply won’t go away. Trailing behind in 3rd place is Mario 64, and in first place is a more modern game: Splatoon. This begs the question: when will Ocarina of Time slip out of the top 5?

Interestingly enough, another Zelda title has made an appearance on the charts this week…

Last month, Nintendo decided to release the N64 Virtual Console version of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time on the Wii U eShop. Since then, the response has been phenomenal, despite the fact that its 3D remake is widely available on the Nintendo 3DS.

Today, Nintendo UK uploaded a video to their Twitter account, showing the eShop highlights of last month. Obviously Ocarina of Time was…

It comes as no surprise to any of us that Zelda games can still find spots in charts, even months after release and this week definitely hasn’t been any different: three games have made the Top 20 chart on the Nintendo eShop this week – The Legend of Zelda ranked at 13th, Link’s Awakening DX at 14th, and Ocarina of Time 3D at number 16.

Maybe this has been caused…

For its third week, Ocarina of Time is number one on the eShop charts and continues to keep Splatoon in the number two slot! Though it seems that A Link to the Past has dropped off the top 20, I am sure we have not seen the last of it…
