Bombers’ Notebook: Beedle’s Assistant Manager

I was browsing online one day, reading about everyone’s favorite shop keeper in the Zelda series, Beedle, when I came across a face I hadn’t seen for many, many years. Or, well, the golden helmet he wears hides most of his features, but you get what I’m saying. I definitely recognized him and I recall…

Tingle’s Maps: Honey & Darling’s Shop

The mini games in the Zelda series give a break for the player, and Link, to pause their heroic adventure and allow Link to have some fun and be more like a normal kid. For some reason, I had a poor sense of direction my first couple of moments in Clock Town, but I eventually…

Medli’s Melodies: Spooky Zelda tunes

It’s the end of October, we’re officially deep into spooky season and the Halloween weekend is here. Although I’m not a big fan of the festivities, probably because I didn’t grow up with Halloween, I do partake in the spookiness in my own way. When the temperature goes down and the morning fogs lingers a…

Bombers’ Notebook: Lulu

Majora’s Mask‘s Lulu is pretty as a princess with her dangling earrings and short blue dress. She’s known as the lead singer of the Zora band The Indigo-Go’s and, confusingly enough, happens to have the same name as her late mother who also happened to be the band’s original singer. But when Link meets this…

Tetra’s Treasures: Secrets from working at Nintendo

I thought I knew everything worth knowing about Zelda after being a fan for more or less my whole life. I know why Princess Zelda got her name, and I’d like to think that I understand what Mr. Miyamoto means when he mentions miniature gardens in his interviews. But recently, I came across something I’ve…

Yuga’s Art Gallery: Din’s Fire

With March halfway in, it might seem like ages since October ended. A lot of things might have happened in our lives since then, but a lot also happened in October. If you didn’t already know, it’s a month that gets bombarded with artwork due to Linktober, a unique challenge that encourages people to create…

Realm of Memories: My little Fairy companion

Living in a country many people would consider very far up north, the winter months are not only cold but also dark. With roughly six to seven hours of daylight, at least in the region where I live, spring feels very far away. If I’m unlucky enough to have a cloudy day (or week, to…

Zelda’s Study: Pieces of Heart

Springtime brings new life with budding flowers and chirping birds, and the warmer temperatures tend to encourage friend groups and romantic couples to spend more time outdoors. But it is still February, not quite spring, yet a month which is still considered to be romantic thanks to this one special day which happens to be…

Realm of Memories: With new eyes

Ahh, Ocarina of Time, the Zelda game I watched my brothers play before daring to give it a try myself, the game I replayed several times before I had even turned ten years old, and the game I loved so dearly (and still do!) that I pictured Epona race along car rides and even carved…

Medli’s Melodies: Lorule Main Theme

In A Link Between Worlds, Link goes on an epic adventure back and forth between the bright, cheerful kingdom of Hyrule and its counterpart, the dark, gloomy Lorule. At first glance, the game isn’t too different from A Link to the Past with the similar maps and location of important places, and even the music…

Tingle’s Maps: Link’s House (A Link Between Worlds)

I always get excited to see what Link’s home looks like in the games because a home is where we can sit back and relax, display our favorite items and desperately try to save dying plants. These small details tell who we are, and who doesn’t want to know such interesting things about Hyrule’s heroes?…

Bombers’ Notebook: Princess Zelda (Breath of the Wild)

In real life, princesses are usually assigned with lesser important tasks than a ruling monarch, but that seems to have never been the case for the royal princesses of Hyrule. While little is known of what kind of responsibilities might be expected of a Hylian king or queen, we know that every Princess Zelda has…
