The timeline for the Zelda series has been under a lot of scrutiny since it was published in the Hyrule Historia. As a result, all sorts of theories have sprung up about how the games are interlinked and, as an extension, how all the incarnations of Zelda, Link and Ganondorf are connected. In Ocarina of Time we hear the tale of how three golden goddesses created the land of Hyrule but what if that wasn’t the only land they created?…

Demise is very well known to most Zelda fans but do we really know his “real” backstory? Where did he really come from, why is he willing to launch an army upon innocent people and cause much death and destruction, all to just possess the Triforce? His story seems very reminiscent to another character that we are also very familiar with, Ganondorf. Hyrule Historia even uses Demise’s flaming red hair to draw a connection between the two.

We’re closing up this week’s series with the brilliant Lorule Castle, the final dungeon from the newest title in the series, The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds.

Welcome back to another issue of Milk Bar Mornings, the show where we analyze various songs from the series through story and technicalities.

Lorule’s dungeons are highly similar to those in the Dark World in the games predecessor, A Link to the Past, some dungeons serving as remakes of A Link to the Past, and others serving as…

An image posted to Reddit a few days ago shows an excerpt of an interview in Game Informer with Hiromasa Shikata, the Director of A Link Between Worlds.

The image shows the text of a question that asks if there any Majora’s Mask references in A Link Between Worlds that we may have missed. The answer given is,

[Having Majora’s Mask in Link’s house] was a special request from Aonuma’s production team. Now why would they ask us to do that? – Hiromasa Shikata

Is Aonuma planning on doing more in the world of Termina? We can’t be certain, but it looks like the signs might be pointing that way. Read after the jump for more!

Hello readers! Brian here with the sixteenth edition of “The Best and Worst of Zelda.” This week’s theme has been specially chosen to coincide with the release of A Link Between Worlds just this past weekend. Don’t forget to comment your ideas for next week, but remember that the next few editorials will likely revolve around the newest entry to the series.
