The Switch 2 Edition reviews continue this week, as we take a look at Tears of the Kingdom! We discuss Auto-Build sharing, Rauru and Master Kohga's voice memories, how incredible the visual upgrades look, and whether or not time has changed how we feel about Link's open world adventure. This is the first time Andy has played since the game came out, so he shares his thoughts and opinions.

We also discuss which games defined the Nintendo Switch for us, so come hop in and join in on the fun!

We are back with more Switch 2 content, and this week we're diving into Breath of the Wild, Switch 2 Edition. But it's dangerous to go alone, so we took the new Zelda Notes app with us! In this episode we talk about the updated version of the game, and what it was like using the different tools that Zelda Notes has to offer. From a daily bonus and amiibo registration, to the incredible interactive map. And of course, we can't forget about all the new voice memories we found along the way.

Come hang out with us and let us know if you've had a chance to use the Zelda Notes app along your new adventures as well.

Definitive Ranking is back, and we're finally discussing the game everyone has been asking for: Breath of the Wild, arguably the most important Zelda game ever released. We’re Definitively Ranking the revolutionary 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. We pay our respects to one of the greats while also giving some fair critiques, so come and let us know what you think!

All this, PLUS we are THRILLED to announce Middle-Earth: The Podcast, a new show featuring Andy, Al, and Corey as they talk about the books, movies, games, and everything in-between relating to J.R.R. Tolkien's incredible legendarium! Catch the first episode when it drops later this month on Patreon.com/SPNet!

After a lengthy layover, Hot Takes returns this week, and we asked YOU to submit your spiciest takes about some of the divisive Zelda games ever made: Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks! We react to what you had to say about the DS titles, weighting in on topics like the Temple of the Ocean King's Pacing, Byrne as an underrated character, the soundtrack of Phantom Hourglass, and if the games would be more beloved if they were console games.

All this, PLUS a little followup on the Sages from Age of Imprisonment! Come hang out with us!

With Alasyn taking the week off this week, Andy calls on his wife - and decided non-Zelda expert - Samantha Spiteri to step in this week to come and out her Zelda knowledge to the test! We go back and forth, asking beginner trivia for Sam and expert Zelda trivia for Andy to see which Spiteri is the ultimate expert! It's a total family affair, and Link the dog makes a cameo and Zora the cat struts in as well, PLUS we hear Sam's experience with the Zelda series, both firsthand and through second hand exposure!

Come and play with us and see which competitor comes out on top!

Everyone's favorite game show Zelda's Percentages returns this week! The premise is simple: we make a statement and then assign a percentage on how likely to be true that statement is, and this week, it's even easier, as every questions "______ will be a playable character in Age of Imprisonment". We go over some shoes ins, like Ganondorf or Sonia, to some borderline plausible characters, like Twinrova or Master Kohga, to some far out there longshots, like Din, Farore, and Nayru! Come play along with us and let us know your Zelda's Percentages!

Next week, HOT TAKES is back, and this time focused on Phantom Hourglass, so give us your spiciest takes on that game and we'll react!

After a few hectic weeks of non-stop news about the Switch 2, we're finally settling into more of a calmer week, as we have a nice and chill time answering some of the Zelda Dungeon writing team's Daily Debates! On the table today: what other films can the Zelda movie take inspiration from? Do the Oracle games feel fulfilling without linking the games and fighting Ganon? What is the actual point of the Nintendo Today app? Zelda aside, which franchise made the jump to 3D best? When might the next Zelda game be headed to NSO? Is Teba's lack of rizz the reason why he was replaced as a Sage?

All this, PLUS a little Star Wars talk on our Twitch channel and plugging Omega Metroid's Metroid Prime Hunters Single-Player and Multiplayer Walkthrough! Come and hang out with us!

We're back with part two of our Age of Imprisonment / Switch 2 / life as a Nintendo fan lately Q&A, and we have a ton of fun questions and theories to get through, including: Andy's insistence that we see Din, Nayru, and Farore in the new Hyrule Warriors game; how will the Tingle Tuner work in The Wind Waker on NSO? How could the Zelda series best utilize the mouse controls on the Switch 2? Which Zelda characters have a shot to be added to Mario Kart World? Is it possible we already know the identities of the ancient sages in the Imprisoning War? Is the Ancient Hero's Aspect somehow related to Rauru and Sonia?

All this, PLUS our horror stories trying to pre-order a Switch 2! Come and have a fun start to the week with us!

With the dust settling with the Switch 2 announcement, we finally get to all of your listener questions, and boy oh boy, did you guys come through! So much actually that we had to break up the episode into two parts! This week, we're tackling questions like: do we think we'll play as the Ancient Hero Aspect in Age of Imprisonment? What do we think of the Zelda movie's release date? Is Tears of the Kingdom's Imprisoning War the same as Skyward Sword's? Would Rauru be a good fit for the next Smash Bros. game?

All this, PLUS our thoughts on the Switch 2 pre-order situation (seemingly) sorting itself out in North America, thoughts on amiibo pricing, and more!
