PAX Australia was held over the past weekend, and for the second year in a row we ran a panel dedicated to Zelda. After discussing the 30-year history of the franchise last year, this year we were all about Breath of the Wild and where we think the Zelda series will go after it. For those who weren’t able…
Nintendo have officially licensed what they call “Lunchbox Kits” for Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odyssey, which come complete with a Joy-Con “comfort grip” (does this mean we’ve been using the “torture grip” all this time?), earbuds, a screen protector and applicator and a snazzy Zelda or Mario cleaning cloth. The Zelda variation of the black…
