It looks like Nintendo underestimated the number of people who would rush to order their Zelda poster series, because a large number of people are currently being told that their purchases are backordered. Hopefully Nintendo won’t take too long in making enough to go around – after all, it can’t be too hard to simply…
Two new Zelda sites have been added to our affiliates list. The first is The Sacred Realm, which has been exploding with activity lately, and the second is Zelda Chronicles, an old Zelda site which has only recently returned and is now focusing specifically on news.
“All of the classic Zelda elements are there – Link, Zelda, Ganondorf, the Triforce, Hyrule – yet the story is a new Zelda tale in its own right.” The Hero of Time is a full-length independent Zelda film which is loosely based on the events of Ocarina of Time. Lysia of the Sacred Realm has…
If you are a member of Club Nintendo, you can now purchase a set of three Zelda posters – the main attraction is a lineup of all of Link’s different artwork styles throughout history, and it also comes with the promotional posters for Twilight Princess and Phantom Hourglass. Given the content, these posters could sell…
“We’re really big Zelda fans. It’s a masterpiece.” – EA producer Nelson Wong EA are creating a game for the DS that they say is heavily inspired by Zelda, titled Tsumuji. Like Zelda, Tsumuji is an adventure-puzzle game starring a young boy in a cel-shaded style reminiscent of Phantom Hourglass, who is also controlled via…
In 1989, Nintendo published a book based on the original Legend of Zelda game, titled The Legend of Zelda: Molblin’s Magic Spear. Well, a homebrew DS port has been made of it featuring music and narration. Sounds like a good way to introduce the newer generation to Zelda, especially on long trips. Another version featuring…
Dragon*Con, for those unfamiliar, is one of the largest pop-culture conventions in the world. Lysia of The Sacred Realm attended the convention, and made it her mission to find and photograph as many Zelda cosplayers as she could. You can check it out here.
It’s about two years overdue, but ZU finally has its own complete Twilight Princess walkthrough up and running, thanks to one of our newest additions to the Site Staff, Ciroton. He puts his own unique spin into the guide, and makes it both informative and entertaining, so if you are stuck at a point in…
I was talking Zelda with some friends the other day when I came across someone with a curious pet peeve – he felt that Link’s name should not be changed or it would break the flow of the game during dialogue, and that people who changed the names were “casuals”. Obviously, most people are less…
Ever felt like you needed more Tingle in your life? Well, Japanese clothing company King of Games has released a Tingle t-shirt based on his newest game, Tingle’s Balloon Trip of Love. Unfortunately, it comes at a high price. Excluding shipping, the shirt costs 4800 Yen, or about $52 US. It’s a nice design, but…
Last month, we needed to put up a new poll, so we asked the fans of our Facebook page what the poll should be about, and they responded with the idea, “you should poll them on what the next poll should be about!” We did this, and now a winner has been decided.
For the benefit of our newly-arrived forum brethren, I’d just thought I’d quickly remind everyone of our official ZU Facebook page, Twitter, and RSS feed.
You probably recall the page we mentioned a week ago which showcased more than 30 styles of Zelda artwork – well, we’ve found another set, but this time it is all to the theme of Spirit Tracks. You can check it out here. Personally, I liked the “Steamboat Willie” rendition of Link the best, though…
This month some newly published webcomics about Zelda have been brought to our attention. We haven’t covered this particular branch of the Zelda fan community before, so we will see how well-received this post is before we decide whether to continue showcasing Zelda webcomics. Brawl in the Family released a comic this month about some…
The Legend of Neil, a live-action parody of the Zelda series about a man named Neil literally sucked into the game of Zelda, has today launched a new episode, the third episode of season two. In this very special episode, Neil must defeat the boss of Level 2 while Ganon, with the help of his…
