USAopoly has made some fun items for collection revolving around our favorite game series. One of the more recent items created was a very nicely crafted Wind Waker puzzle for collectors to acquire. Now, they’ve moved on to the popular Majora’s Mask 3D for inspiration. The puzzle is based on official artwork from the recent release, depicting Skull Kid holding Majora’s…
If you’re a British Nintendo fan who has yet to purchase The Wind Waker HD, then now may be the opportune time to treat yourself. Not just because the game is simply fantastic and I demand that everyone on the planet play it, but because the Nintendo Official UK Store is now offering a free shirt with the…
Late last year, a fan-made album titled Harmony of Heroes was released. The album revolved around the various Super Smash Bros. characters that have appeared in the titles over the years, featuring compositions inspired by their respective franchises. One of the songs on the album was a rendition of the Dragon Roost Island theme song from Wind Waker,…
Do you enjoy using Legos as an outlet for the creative architect inside you? How about The Legend of Zelda? Well, I’m willing to bet you enjoy the latter, at least, since you are here at Zelda Universe. A program named Lego Ideas helps to make people’s ideas for Lego sets become reality; and it looks like…
DeviantArt user gilamasan has uploaded an amazing new piece of artwork. I’ve stated various times that The Wind Waker is my favorite Zelda title in the series, with A Link to the Past not far behind. So, what happens when these two excellent titles come together? The piece is truly outstanding, capturing the open ocean of The Wind Waker and the…
Earlier this afternoon, much to my shock, I got an e-mail from Nintendo informing me about Women’s History Month. It wasn’t so shocking that they were commemorating the month (although I didn’t quite know it was Women’s History Month), but it was shocking that they were featuring The Wind Waker’s very own Tetra as one of the…
IGN has put together a list of the top 25 games for Wii U, and our favorite green-clad hero placed not once, but twice! Hyrule Warriors came in at number 18, while The Wind Waker HD, a remake of a game originally on the GameCube, ranked fourth, besting titles such as Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, Bayonetta 2, and Pikmin…
The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker is one of my favorite Zelda titles to date. The vibrant visuals, outstanding art style, enormous blue ocean, and memorable characters are quite fantastic. For me, though, my favorite aspect outside of the art direction are the superb compositions sprinkled throughout the entirety of the game. The folk-like, celtic feel…
Move over ReDeads, because these dresses are officially the coolest thing when it comes to the living dead and Zelda! Living Dead Clothing has a wicked range of Zelda-themed clothing including leggings, dresses and bikinis. They’ve recently released some new Zelda designs and to celebrate they’ve given us two skater dresses to give away. The dresses up for grabs are the Chibi…
If you are ever exploring the city of Austin, Texas, keep your eyes out for Zelda treasures that may be hiding in mysterious places. “Ez” (simply pronounced “easy”) is an Austin-based street artist who is quickly becoming known for his Zelda-themed “interactive” artwork that has been appearing throughout the city and the surrounding wooded areas. He admits that he is not “obsessed with Zelda“, however; it…
I love The Wind Waker. Of my personal favorite Zelda games, it is tied at the top with Majora’s Mask. I love everything about The Wind Waker — the colorful graphical style, the ocean environment, the storyline, and even the much often mocked sailboat simulation. It might have something to do with the fact that I…
And so the celebration continues. Today, we welcome the third installment of our “Twelve Days of Zelda-mas,” ever adding to our expanding song lyrics. I hope you enjoy today’s set! “On the third day of Zelda-mas, my princess gave to me: Three Goddess Pearls, Two Kinstone halves, And a quest from the Great Deku Tree.”…
Wind Waker is one of the brightest and most light-hearted games in the Zelda franchise, and in HD, it’s perhaps the most beautiful game in the series. Despite this, one of the first locations you visit in the game is in quite a depressing state: Dragon Roost Island. Valoo, the Sky Spirit, is going berserk,…
Many will recoil upon hearing Navi’s never-ending nagging, or groan at Fi’s incessant insights; but no one complains about The King of Red Lions. Many of the different variations of Link have had companions, but none are more useful as the talking boat that young Wind Waker Link finds himself in on his adventure. He can…
ArtStation user Cassio Yoshiyaki has uploaded some amazing illustrations inspired by The Wind Waker. One can’t help but imagine the title, with its cel-shaded cartoon-like qualities, be reimagined as a Dreamworks or Pixar animated film. Wind Waker is my personal favorite Legend of Zelda title, due to the nature of the game, the music, and most importantly, the visual flare…
