My favorite characters in any kind of media are always the “quiet-but-determined” kind. Yuna from Final Fantasy X, Lucas from Mother 3, and of course Medli from Wind Waker are just some examples of this type of character. It’s because I relate so well to them that I find myself cheering them on in their…
Say it with me: Wind Waker Link is the best Link. Link’s transformation into a hero was not an easy one, but his courage, resolve, and humor made the process bearable for him and enjoyable for me. The Wind Waker has always been my favorite video game, and its version of Link has always been…
The Wind Waker provided many surprises for me as a child. I wasn’t expecting Jabun to be so gargantuan, I didn’t have a clue that Tetra would turn out to be a princess, and I certainly did not foresee a child to be the Queen of Fairies. I had encountered a few Great Fairies before…
It had been days since I had come across a friendly face. I had encountered many an enemy encampment and disturbed several peaceful woodland creatures in my travels across Hyrule in Breath of the Wild, but since leaving Kakariko Village I had not seen another being with whom I could converse. Suddenly, as I emerged…
Cadence, our shovel-wielding heroine, made her debut in the Zelda universe recently in Cadence of Hyrule, and as a fan of the game she originally hails from (Crypt of the NecroDancer), I genuinely hope we see more of her. In her world, she’s well-equipped with a fearless, determined, and upbeat personality to explore the NecroDancer’s…
A Link Between Worlds is filled with a colorful cast of characters who I adore to no end. All the sages are filled with personality, Hilda is so complexed and interesting, Yuga is an extraordinary villain, and then there’s Ravio. I came into this game with his identity spoiled by fan art on the internet,…
Error. What can more can be said about this character? He is Error. This blacksmith from Zelda II: The Adventures of Link can be found in the small town of Ruto, standing in his home, just ready to introduce himself. “I am Error,” he says as you enter his home, and either hilarity or confusion ensues.…
Heroes aren’t born as such — they’re made. Forged like steel from ordinary souls inhabiting the world that brought them forth. They are often discovered in the simplest of places: a forgotten forest, a peaceful village, a quiet island in a vast sea. When we meet them, they are ordinary people going about their ordinary…
I’m just going to say it: Falco Lombardi wishes he was as cool as Quill. The Wind Waker is home to many beloved and memorable characters, including the sassy Tetra, the loving Granny, and of course the heroic Link. But the character who I’ve always thought was one of the most interesting and unique —…
Earlier this year, we learned about the improved Bombers’ Notebook in Majora’s Mask 3D. Among the improvements is a new interface that makes it easier to understand and keep your appointments. However, after spending time with the demo at PAX South, I realized that there are many more changes — including the addition of many…
