Just when we were getting excited over the last soundtrack announced for a worldwide release via Club Nintendo, a feeling of exclusivity yet again pervades.  Club Nintendo of Japan has just received an addition to its collection of rewards that is one many of the fans here are certainly itching to get their hands on (including myself).  At a cost of only 250 coins, Club Nintendo members in Japan can now obtain access to over 100 tracks in a swanky new CD case that really celebrates the game from which they come…

In this year’s PAX Prime, the Triforce Quartet performs an incredible Legend of Zelda medley in the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre in Victoria, Australia. This composition features various fan favorites and astounding compositions by this significant string quartet, performing for the first time at PAX Prime. Hit the jump to take a look!

It’s been a long road to this point: game has gone against game, instrument against instrument, gorgeous melody against gorgeous melody. The entire

Zelda series is filled to the brim with numerous memorable tunes that we could spend all day and night listening to…but alas, one must stand on top. A week ago we reached the final showdown of the soundtracks: The Wind Waker VS. Majora’s Mask, and the fans have spoken. After giving you all a full seven days to cast your ballots, we are proud to announce the winner…

This morning, in an early Nintendo Direct presentation, many interesting game details were revealed, but one of the more interesting bits is that Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS will be getting…

More soundtrack segments for Hyrule Warriors are available this time around, and we’re in for a treat! Parts four and five cover some very nice arrangements, both original and remastered melodies. Fans can finally get a sense of what the soundtrack will be like for the anticipated title, so hit the jump to take a listen!

If there’s one aspect of Hyrule Warriors that has been in the dark for a while, it is the soundtrack! Fans can now take a listen at this 25-minute combination of several soundtrack segments from the game; GameXplain has recently added part two and three, so listen to your enjoyment! Jump inside for more!

Update: Part 2 and 3 of the soundtrack has been added.

One aspect of Hyrule Warriors we have talked the least about is the music, which is odd considering it might be one of the strongest aspects in the entire game. You don’t really need to take our word for it – you can take a listen for yourself to 25 blissful minutes of Hyrule Warriors music. It beckons back to many games in the series yet creates its own unique vibe. The composers here did a fine job of blending new styles with old classics. It’s truly a work of art…

ZVS pushes on, as

Spirit Tracks beat out beat out The Adventure of Link yesterday. Today we have another round one matchup in The Wind Waker vs. A Link to the Past. Who will come out on top? You decide right now! Your vote can be based on any factor you wish, but please be aware that we are focusing solely on which game has the superior soundtrack, not graphics, story, or any other feature of the games you may prefer—though we recognize that atmosphere may be something you personally take into account. Who will move on to the next round?

We’ve been fairly swamped since Monday (thanks Nintendo!) and as such we’re a bit behind on the Zelda Versus polling for Best Soundtrack. I promise to get us back on track starting today. We’ll be running two of these polls tomorrow (one in the morning, one at night) to try and compensate. That being said today we have The Adventure of Link taking on Spirit Tracks in a round one matchup for best soundtrack. Which way are you going to vote?

Another day, another VERSUS. Just so you know, we thought long and hard about this, and in regards to the poll we made an alteration due to Majora’s Mask beating out Skyward Sword. We bumped up the flames/flare from 70% opacity to 71%. Enjoy. Also, we might actually throw in A Link Between Worlds… somehow. Maybe we’ll give Skyward Sword another shot too as it seems like people voted for Majora’s Mask simply because it was their favorite game rather than them thinking it had a better soundtrack. But for now it’s time for the next fight! Who will win!? Four Swords or Link’s Awakening!? YOU DECIDE!
