Hello, readers! Brian here again with the third edition of “The best and worst of Zelda.” Last weeks comment section was bustling with topic ideas, and while I considered many of them, I can only choose one per week.

Zelda fans, rejoice! If you haven’t yet picked up a copy of The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword for some inexplicable reason, you have an opportunity to get it from Best Buy for a crazy price of $14.99.

Hiya guys! Well, well, well, things just keep getting crazier don’t they? First that insane “888” (#8, with 8 questions and 8 songs) mailbag last week, and now a whopping 10 (10!!!) questions for this week! I’m going to try and make this quantity of questions somewhat standard, although I can 100% promise anything, especially if I get more complex questions. Here are the questions answered and their timestamps: (00:06) – What’s your least favorite Zelda game? (01:06) – What…
