Medli’s Melodies: Chopin’s fairy fantaisie

I’ve always been a fan of classical music. Their entrancing melodies and traditional instruments have stimulated my mind from a young age. That’s probably why I also came to enjoy Zelda music so much. There are many similarities between how the pieces are composed — some current-day Zelda music is even performed by a live…

Zelda’s Study: What do you meme?

The internet is a strange, strange place. There are videos being made every second of the most random scenarios, looping for ten hours straight with the most ridiculously catchy foreign songs, all just because we thought it would be funny for a week or so. I’m not going to “meme-splain” to you as you likely…

Bombers’ Notebook: Tumbo

Kids can get away with anything. Why? Because they’re cute. Especially when they’re an adorable fish baby. So it’s okay that little Tumbo says Link’s face is weird, even though we well-informed adults know that Link does not have a weird face, but an incredibly handsome, well-sculpted one. We forgive you, Tumbo, you adorable little…

Realm of Memories: The music that bonds us

My mother was never really interested in video games, cartoons, or anything that I really liked. I’d ask her to play Super Smash Bros. with me on occasion, but she only made it a few rounds before wanting to do something different. She was a big movie fan, but for the most part, our tastes…

Realm of Memories: Taking the chance

To whoever said college would be the best time of your life, I strongly disagree. My college experience was the worst. I was always depressed and crying every other day. It was bad. I was in a major that I thought I was in love with and grew to hate it more and more with…

Zelda’s Study: Link was always right!

I know quite a few Zelda fans who constantly beg for Link to remain left-handed in future games. Whether it be because they can relate to him (being lefties themselves) or they simply find it a unique trait, there are many fans who would fight for him to stay left-handed. He seems to be making…

Bombers’ Notebook: Crazy Tracy

Hoards and hoards of enemies chase Link as he wanders about the Mysterious Woods. He seeks shelter, a safe haven to escape his foes and heal his wounds. When all hope is lost, he sees in the distance a tiny shack with doors wide open. He runs towards it, seeking sweet relief, fleeing the birds…

Yuga’s Art Gallery: Trading places

Ever since I found out Ravio’s little “secret,” so many fun ideas popped into my head of funny little scenarios he and Link could get into. A costume swap was among them, and I’m so happy to see the idea brought to life by ChinguCosplay! ChinguCosplay has such a unique, distinct style, working mainly with…

Medli’s Melodies: A party fit for a Picori

It’s been such a long time since I’ve been able to play The Minish Cap, which means it’s been a while since I’ve heard its soundtrack. It’s often overlooked in medleys and by cover artists, but one musician, Oscar Azcautli, has captured my attention with his re-orchestration of a track from this game: “The Picori…
