A couple days ago I started a bit of a storm when I stated that Tri Force Heroes‘ method of revealing itself was better than Zelda U’s. Of course, this is pure opinion and most of you were pretty quick to jump down my throat about it. However, I feel like the conversation itself got lost as I wasn’t talking so much about the quality of what we saw, but the method of delivery. Let me phrase this in a way that makes this make more sense for this debate…

Have you ever wondered how they achieved the animation in the eyes of Twilight Princess? Well, ClassicGameJunkie explains it in a video series called “How Did They Do That?” on Youtube. He explains that the characters have two layers on the face: the first being the eyelid texture with the center cut out for the second layer, which is the…

Fantastic theorist and fanman HMK joins us for this week’s episode of the ZI Podcast….sort of. Adam is currently moving, Chris is in Orlando, and Jake is being an adult as we record together for the first time! HMK sits with us for the first half of this week’s episode, and before we leave, he tells about his favorite…

Rozen, known for his work on the Harmony of Heroes album, has released a new album featuring 5 amazing tracks from Twilight Princess, completely done in his own style. Having listened to them myself, I can safely say they are beyond epic. Here is what he has to say about the album itself…

Welcome to back to another entry of our weekly poll series: ZI Votes! Those of you who are new to this feature (or forget due to its absence last week) need not worry; this is an extremely simple feature to get involved in. Each week, we present the community here at Zelda Informer with a question for the week, most often related to some sort of controversial issue regarding The Legend of Zelda. At the end of the week, we tally up the votes…

Throughout almost every Zelda game, Link has always had a companion that could take him from point A to point B. He could even just spin in circles, if he really wanted to- either way his companion acted as his way of transportation. And as we know, we’ve seen quite a few companions Link can use as transportation- so the question is, which do you prefer? Do you prefer galloping throughout Hyrule, or sailing above it? Perhaps even flying above…

We’ve seen this matchup at our site before, but we’ve never had a true debate. Ocarina of Time and Twilight Princess are the series’ most popular games according to sales data. They are closely linked both in tone and, some would argue, style. Really though, the big question is: which one do you prefer…and why? For me this is an easier question than it likely is for others, as can be evidenced by some prior Zelda Versus polling. Back in January 2014, Ocarina of Time dispatched Twilight Princess in fan polling rather easily. This year, Twilight Princess not only conquered Ocarina of TIme…

Youtube user Dr. Willy has an earth-shattering theory that will rattle our community to its core, changing how we view the Zelda series as we know it: cuccos are the most powerful beings in the Zeldaverse due to their gift of immortality…

“Midna’s Lament” is one of the Zelda series’ most emotionally powerful tunes. While we traditionally hear the song performed with piano and strings, fans occasionally find creative ways to cover the tune with other instruments. One such cover was recently released by YouTube musicians, New Game Plus, who fantastically performed “Midna’s Lament” with an acoustic guitar and a marimba…

This theory may be my favorite fan theory to date. It has often been viewed by some staff at Zelda Informer that the Hero of Time version of Link suffered a pretty terrible fate no matter which timeline were dealing with. M. Productions decided to explore this concept in the child timeline, going over what they believe to be Link’s darkest secret. We all know Link allowed Ganondorf into the Temple of Time and the sacred realm, letting…
