Skyward Sword at GamesCom

Skyward Sword made its expected appearance at GamesCom (Germany’s E3) on the 19th… but don’t get your hopes up. Nintendo didn’t offer anything new. The demo stations used the same demo as seen at E3. That being said, we were still able to learn some new things even from this same demo. One of the…

Fan-Made Skyward Sword Poster

While everything about it is rather unlike anything Nintendo themselves would do poster-wise for the Zelda franchise, it is certainly extremely well-designed and a breath of fresh air. Robert LeDuc, of San Francisco, designed his version of what a poster would look like for the new The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. And it certainly…

Nintendo: Learn Backwards Archery, No Lefties Allowed

Link is one, Shigeru Miyamoto is one, and so is seven to ten percent of the population… But Nintendo doesn’t seem to care. You might call it a prejudice or even a “hate crime” that they would neglect this segment of the population. But, yes, according to Nintendo rep Julie Gagnon, there will be no “lefty” option…

Legend of Neil: Season Three, Episode Two

We’ve been waiting a while, but it’s finally here – episode two of the new season of The Legend of Neil! Well, okay, okay, it was actually released five days ago, but we’ve been busy, okay? Get off our case! But the wait was worth it! This episode features “Gannon” and “Wizrobe” in a hilarious parody of…

Skyward Sword to Be Featured at GamesCom

It was certainly expected, but we now have confirmation from Official Nintendo Magazine that The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword will appear at GamesCom in Cologne, Germany. If you live in Deutschland or are close enough nearby, now is your chance to get your hands on a the new Zelda game! But the question on…

FreddeGredde Covers Zelda Again!

You might remember that back in July we celebrated the fake holiday known as “X-mas in July” by posting FreddeGedde’s Wind Waker Unplugged YouTube video (which had a Christmas theme). Since then, the super talented Fredrik Larsson has recorded a lot of songs, both covers (including this awesome tv themes video) and originals (including his…

The Marathon of Zelda

We’ve seen a lot of these this summer, but they’re always for a great cause and each deserves attention. The new “Zelda marathon for charity” began today at noon with Ocarina of Time and will continue for 72 hours to raise money for Child’s Play (a charity to bring toys, books, and games to sick…

Top Five Zelda Clones!

When you think “Zelda clone” the usual suspects come to mind. . . Okami, 3D Dot Game Heroes, and the Neutopia games (if you’re in the know). So it’s no surprise that Everyview’s “Top Five Legend of Zelda Clones” list mentions all three. What is surprising is that they missed the most obvious (at least…

Nintendo Power’s Official Guide to The Legend of Zelda

Unbeknownst to us, Nintendo Power released a gorgeous guide to all things Zelda. How this one slipped by us, we will never know, but thankfully Steph over at Playing4Fun recently found it at her local Target and posted a video review of it and the four posters it contains. She does a fantastic job of…

Angry Video Game Nerd Inspires Silly Zelda Shirt

Angry Video Game Nerd asked, and now Angry Video Game Nerd shall receive: a shirt depicting Link holding the lost child above his head in the typical Zelda style. In case you haven’t seen the hilarious video we reported on, the Angry Video Game Nerd tackled Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, and during his…

Zelda Marathon for Breast Cancer Charity

It seems to be the season of fundraising, especially in the Zelda community. This marks the fourth Zelda marathon for charity this summer! But just like all the others before it, it’s for a great cause. Our friends at Zelda Eternity are playing non-stop for 96 hours to benefit the National Breast Cancer Foundation.  Those…

Angry Video Game Nerd Takes on Zelda II

The game we love to hate (actually, some of us do love it) and the nerd we love to hate (again, some people actually love him) are finally together. The Angry Video Game Nerd rants and gushes about Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. While it’s all the rage to dump on the black sheep…

Aonuma: More Skyward Details

In our excitement and eagerness to share with you some of the details from the recent Nintendo Power interview with producer Eiji Aonuma in our previous article, we managed to overlook some sizable tidbits! You certainly let us know, and for that we thank you! First of all, accept our humblest apologies. Second of all, hit the jump…

Voice Acting: Not Now, Nor Ever

To voice act or not to voice act, that is the question. And a topic nearly as hotly debated as the Zelda timeline–amongst the fans, that is. Though seemingly not within Nintendo itself, as in a recent inverview by Nintendo Power, producer Eiji Aonuma said that there will certainly not be voice acting in The…

Aonuma: Recent Rumors Confirmed

Last week we posted about a list of facts that were rumored to appear in the September issue of Nintendo Power regarding The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. We can now, after having seen it with our own eyes, confirm those to be true – and more! Chief amongst that list is voice acting and the…
