Nintendo hasn’t given us much in the way of new Zelda Wii U content aside from some promotional art and short clips we’ve all no doubt watched a hundred times over; we’ll have to wait until E3 before we get much of anything else. Those of us who’ve hungrily scrutinized the little we’ve been given probably noticed the curious notebook Link has on his person in a number of these promotions. With the mysterious book displayed so prominently in the…

The Zelda Conqueror’s YouTube channel recently released his latest Zelda theory. This theory pertains to the cursed Skulltulla family that resides in Kakariko Village in Ocarina of Time. Who really is this family of tortured souls, who were they before this terrible fate befell them? These are the questions that are pondered in this latest Zelda theory. To help save this poor family Link is tasked with a quest to find every golden skulltulla in the game, totaling 100. As…

Hey everybody and welcome to the latest edition of Zelda Dungeon Talks! The Legend Of Zelda is a strong franchise with a large amount of main series games, as well as a few spinoffs here and there. Most people believed that Triforce Heroes would be a spinoff until it was confirmed as canon. That leaves us with Hyrule Warriors as Nintendo’s latest Zelda spinoff. Koei Tecmo and Nintendo collaborated to make an excellent game which is now coming to 3DS as well in Hyrule…

The Zelda series boasts more than its fair share of otherworldly and downright fascinating tribes. Similarly to some of the franchise’s most memorable characters, though, many of them serve as one-offs. That isn’t to say that said races receive the bare minimum of characterization. Nintendo definitely scatters tidbits of intrigue regarding these races throughout their respective games — enough for theorists, fan-fiction authors, and roleplayers to work with, at any rate. Admittedly, there’s something to be said about leaving details…

It’s no secret that the Zelda universe is filled with many different races, some humanoid, like the Gerudo and the Kokiri, and some with traits from other creatures, like the Zoras and the Mogmas. And while none of the races have any extensive backstory behind their presence in the land of Hyrule, it seems that there could be one for the the Sheikah, also known as the Messengers of the Goddess. Through many subtle clues and much research, one can…

Playing through Ocarina of Time, I was always curious about the boss of the Shadow Temple, Bongo Bongo, and the boss of the Spirit Temple, Twinrova. My curiosity was furthered by finding online theories for Bongo Bongo, and the final words that Twinrova leave Link with after he defeats them in the Spirit Temple. Like my editorial on Bunnio, this will be more interpretive, looking at possible backgrounds and futures of the characters, rather than analysing what the characters are…

In Ocarina of Time, Impa is the nursemaid of the young Princess Zelda. She is a Sheikah, and a key member of the race, having founded Kakariko Village. In the relatively recent Hyrulean Civil War, the Sheikah were almost brought to extinction, and Impa is now one of the last members of the race. When she left Kakariko to protect Princess Zelda, she left the village to the other races of Hyrule. After helping Link as a child, she is…
