I wrote, a few days ago, about Zelda Universe’s new donation system, The Bank of Hyrule. I’m pleased to announce that, after much fussing, The Bank is now live! You can find it on the sidebar under “Site Related.” For those unaware of just what The Bank of Hyrule is, allow me to explain: The…
It seems that Hylian Dan’s article has spurred some excitement – particularly among one man from the old Behind the Rupees team. For those who don’t know, Behind the Rupees was the predecessor to The Missing Link. Years ago, Zelda Universe had an elite Team of Writers who specialized in creating in-depth articles about the…
It seems Viz decided to answer my call from before, and it wasn’t long before the recently released Ocarina of Time manga appeared at my doorstep to review. Previously, these volumes were only available in Japanese, or “scanlated” by diehard fans, but were finally brought to the US near the end of 2008. As someone…
For a while now, I’ve had something in the works. A personal dream of mine has been to recreate the Phantom Hourglass launch contest we held way back in the day. The launch contest was nothing short of a huge success, but the money to hold more contests never came. On the flipside, the donation…
Hylian Dan is making a return to Zelda Universe, writing articles as a part of our revival of our in-depth article series, The Missing Link. In his most lengthy and insightful article since The Message of Majora’s Mask, he discusses the theme of time and timelessness in the Zelda series. Is the Zelda series about…
(Hey guys – Jason here! The folks running the Gender Wars are at it again, with the sequel to their craziness. As you all remember, last time I dominated the scene by singing the guys’ way to victory. Don’t listen to what the girls say. Anyways, Mattocks and Kasuto have a message for all interested…
It looks like Nintendo has given into demand and officially released the poster initially meant only for a “select group” of people. Naturally, the poster has now fallen into ZU hands, and we’re showing it to everyone we can. Hit the jump and have a look into a future far beyond Spirit Tracks.
Yep, we’ve gone and done it again – the Spirit Tracks section has been updated with the latest info on the new Zelda title. Here’s a rundown of all the changes we made over yesterday and today. Items Page: Added information on the Whip. Fixed up information about the Whirlwind. New images! Characters Page: Revised…
IGN had the chance to get their hands on Spirit Tracks at Nintendo’s E3 booth, and had the courtesy to record their session with the game. The video covers most all of the basics of moving on the train – you can even read the tutorial text bubbles.
Nintendo supplied us with a set of ten ultra-high quality screenshots from their latest E3 Spirit Tracks trailer, and all of them have been uploaded to the gallery. They offer a clearer view of weapons like the Whirlwind and bosses like the Giant Rhinoceros Beetle. Go check them out at the Spirit Tracks Screenshot Gallery.…
There’s a lot of gaming news to be spread around due to the E3 rush, and amongst that news is information beyond the new trailer for Spirit Tracks. That’s right, we now have a glimpse deeper into the gameplay mechanics of Spirit Tracks, if just a small one, from Nintendo’s official E3 Spirit Tracks press…
Tomorrow’s the big day, folks, and we’ll be here to cover it all – Nintendo’s not going to get away with announcing anything huge without Zelda Universe catching it in its giant news net. That said, we’ll also be liveblogging the entire keynote on top of posting news, just like last year’s E3. Bookmark this…
Today we’re adding a new entry to ZU’s collection of fan wallpapers – this one’s based on the logo for A Link to the Past. Submitted by forum-goer Brimstone in the ages of yore (we’re really sorry for taking our time with this one), you can snag this wallpaper in three colors and two resolutions…
Zelda Universe will be covering the Nintendo portion E3 extensively, so get ready, because the date is coming up. We’ll (hopefully) be running a liveblog of Nintendo’s Tuesday keynote, with separate news posts coming after that with the specific unveilings our favorite company has to offer. Here’s a list of everything we know so far…
There were some broken links on the Ocarina of Time soundtrack page, I was informed. Those links have now been fixed; nobody should have any troubles downloading the soundtrack now. Make sure to let us know if you encounter any other issues anywhere on the site!
