With the release of Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment on the not so distant horizon, we’ve opened the floor once more to your submitted questions! This week we chimed in on questions like: Which regions of Hyrule are we most excited to see represented in Age of Imprisonment? Do we think that we will learn more about the three ancient dragons and their origins? What would be the worst narrative choice for Age of Imprisonment to make? What could Nintendo do to make the Hyrule Warriors games more appealing to traditional Zelda fans?

All this, PLUS our thoughts on Doug Bowser’s retirement and our song picks from every Zelda game that we would like to hear a lo-fi rendition of! Come hang out with us!

The post Reviewing Zelda Dungeon’s Top 25 Favorite Nintendo-Published Switch Games in The Zelda Cast Episode 384! appeared first on Zelda Dungeon.

We’re debuting a brand new sub series today, where we focus on the lore of a particular topic and dive in to give context, our opinions, and our thoughts! Appropriately enough, we’ve titled this series Hyrule Historia, and we thought what better way to kick it off than by examining what we know about the most famous conflict in the Zelda series: the Imprisoning War! We talk about the two different interpretations of this conflict, from A Link to the Past and Tears of the Kingdom, discuss how the timeline impacts these conflicts, if Demon King Ganondorf and Demise are one and the same, who could be the missing Sage of Forest (if anyone), and so much more!

Tell us what you think of this new series and leave suggestions for what you’d like us to cover in the future! Don’t forget to brush up on your copy of Hyrule Historia for future eps!

Definitive Ranking is back, and this time, we’re going back to 2007 to rank the maiden voyage on the Nintendo DS: Phantom Hourglass! We’re Definitively Ranking the controversial title, assigning scores to each of the ten key categories that define a great Zelda game: the world, the art style, the gameplay, the pacing, the story, the music, the enemies and bosses, the dungeons, the items, and the side content. Andy and Al are on different pages, so come and weigh in and see which team you’re on!

All this, PLUS some Donkey Kong Bananza and Tales of the Shire discussion! Come hang out!

Zelda’s Percentages returns! The premise remains the same: we make a statement and then assign a percentage on the likelihood of that statement coming true.

We cover everything from The Legend of Zelda movie box office predictions, the possibility of Nintendo DS / 3DS games on NSO, and how many new mainline game entries will we see on Nintendo Switch 2?

All this plus a lengthy “discussion” on what constitutes an A-List vs B-List Hollywood actor. Come hang out with us!

Earlier this week, Nintendo showcased their latest Partner Direct, and in it, we saw the latest trailer for Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment! While there wasn’t a ton of info revealed, there was enough shown for us to sink our teeth into, including: who is the Gerudo sage, and could she be a familiar name to us? What or who is being built an the end of the trailer and could it be related to the Ancient Hero? What’s up with Fi’s theme playing at the end? These, plus many other questions, observations, and theories!

All this, PLUS we go over the latest Nintendo financials and talk about what other games shown off in the Direct we’re interested in! Come hang out!

All this, PLUS some Marathon final thoughts, Middle-Earth: The Podcast news, and much more! Come hang out with us!
