But an intrepid explorer of Hyrule over on reddit by the name of Rangers_of_the_North has located a glitch that removes the cartoon shaders from both Link…
Last year, I interviewed the creator of Zelda Linked Green as he was beginning to wrap up the final series, Seven Dark Sorcerers, after more than a decade of creating animated comics. It has taken longer than he planned to complete the last few episodes, but episode 32 is now complete.
Accompanying the release of a patch for Breath of the Wild a couple of weeks ago, you may remember us reporting about a new feature that was introduced called Tips from the Wild. These tips are accessible through the News channel on the Nintendo Switch, which can be visited by navigating the Home menu. In addition to providing tips…

“It looks like you won’t be able to use some of the weapons you found as a kid anymore…” Ah, Navi. How could she have predicted the future gamers who would seek ways to exploit Ocarina of Time’s programming quirks to make such a statement ring false? Nearly eighteen years have passed since the iconic game’s release,…

To do this, you’ll want to start a brand new game over an existing save file,…

The brief animation covers ten different Zelda games including the likes of Ocarina of Time and Link’s Awakening, all featuring adorable bouncing birds in the role of Link. It’s truly pointlessly brilliant. Check it…
