Mailbag: The Return of the James

Hey everybody!  Long time no see!  Well, if you remember me that is.  Long story short, I am James or Lozzie on the forums.  I used to post a lot around these parts and used to do a lot of mailbags to boot.  Well, I had a child almost two years ago and a breakup…

AVGN and the Rare NES Game

I am usually the one to post Angry Video Game Nerd videos regarding Zelda. While his latest doesn’t have anything to do with Zelda, it does have a lot to do with Nintendo history. A Nintendo rarity that not many people may know about.

Hey! Listen! i:iii (Weekly News Roundup)

What if Zelda had a Portal Gun?

Last month, I found out about the guys from Dorkly.  They are the guys who take old school games and create new situations in game that weren’t there before.  For example, there was one from Sonic the Hedgehog 2 where Robotnik’s wheel car at the end of Emerald Hill Zone breaks down and he gets…

Hey! Listen! i:ii (Weekly News Roundup)

I have another edition of Hey! Listen! for all of your to enjoy. Nothing major to note about this edition, only that I am going to start listing all of them based on a volume/issue system.  Jason has informed me that dates are not in style when posting, so I decided to do it this…

Nintendo Sued Over “Stolen” Technology Again

A retired Sony engineer has come out and claimed that the glasses-free technology that Nintendo has been advertising since last year is actually his.  Seijiro Tomita, founder of Tomita Technologies, claims to have filed a patent for the same 3D technology back in 2003 and actually having it granted in 2008, a few years before…

Outset Island, Minus the Celda

A user on Reddit thought it was a good idea to take an eight-year-old game and recreate it using better graphics.  It wasn’t an obscure game that needed it, it was The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker.  You know, the game we all thought was going to look realistic and we got super cel-shading…

Zelda Tech Demo at E3 A Lie?

In a recent interview with Wired, Eiji Aonuma said that the tech demo that was shown at E3 may not be actual game graphics or game play from a new Wii U Zelda game.  He also reminded us of the infamous SpaceWorld tech demo that showcased a realistic battle between Link and Ganondorf that people…

Hey! Listen! i:i (Weekly News Roundup)

So, back in the day, a forum member by the name of pipking started a feature on ZU to highlight gaming news around the community that didn’t necessarily fit into the Zelda category. It was to serve a couple of different purposes: for one it added more content to the site that was lacking at…

Ocarina of Time Bugs left in the 3DS Remake

Those who remember playing the original Ocarina of Time on the N64 know that the game was made back in the day where game bugs were very notorious – back when the technology was new and bugs in 3D were likely to occur more often than not.  It also produced some really funny times within…

Ocarina of Time glitches

As I usually do when I find something Zelda related on Cinemassacre, the parent “company” of the Angry Video Game Nerd, I like to post it on ZU.  Just because I like you and I like watching these videos.  Well, the newest one from James Rolfe (the real name of the AVGN) is not a…

Wii U images surfaced

Remember back at E3 when we were bombarded with information about the Wii U controller and nothing about the console itself?  The only image we had was a zoomed in version of a console showed during the tech demo of Zelda.  Well, some images of the console have surfaced showing off what it looks like…

Wii U Not Gamecube Compatible

In a story that should not surprise anyone, the Wii U will not support Gamecube games like the Wii did.  So, to those fans of Luigi’s Mansion who want to play the original after playing the sequel when it comes out, they won’t be able to on the Wii U when it is released next…

There was a new Iwata Asks posted on Nintendo’s official E3 site recently, in regards to the Wii U and Nintendo’s overall E3 presentation.  As with all Iwata Asks previously, it is a simple sit down interview with Nintendo President Satoru Iwata and another Nintendo employee in regards to upcoming titles and projects within the…
