CD-i cosplay: a father and his daughter

King Harkinian is by far the most widely cosplayed character from the CD-i Zelda games, but occasionally he does not cosplay alone. The two cosplays I have lined up today feature the king with his beloved daughter, Princess Zelda herself. Interestingly, I could not find any other examples of someone cosplaying CD-i Princess Zelda outside…

CD-i Poop: MeStarStudios

With all the YouTube poop out there, you might be asking yourself: “Who makes the best poop?” Well, I can only speak for myself but to me, it’s – hands down – MeStarStudios. His channel has dozens of Zelda CD-i poop videos with excellent humor and the production value makes his videos seem like the Hollywood movies…

What the CD-i Games Did Right

They made Zelda the protagonist of a game. People can say what they will about how bad the CD-i games are comparatively to the rest of the series.  As much as I’d like to say something as controversial as The Faces of Evil or The Wand of Gamelon being better than, oh, say, Spirit Tracks—and…

CD-i Zelda remix: Drop the Dodongo

The folks from Something Awful are either extremely patient, extremely crazy, or possibly both, to put together a music remix video based on quotes from the CD-i Zelda cut scenes. Drop the Dodongo is a surprisingly catchy tune and the animations are hilarious. Don’t be surprised if it’s stuck in your head for the rest…

CD-i Zelda Etch-A-Sketch speed art

The CD-i Zelda month celebrations continue with another artistic portrayal of classic, cheesy Zelda cut scenes. Mixing his love for Etch-A-Sketching and CD-i Zelda games, one of ZU’s very own has combined two of the most tedious works of art to create a more aesthetic form. Rather than watching a boring, two hour video of…
