  • ZI Podcast 31: Zelda U’s Dev Cycle, An American Zelda Title, and Smash Bros Fan Fics Ft Vernon Shaw
    With Zelda U’s delay still sinking in, Adam leads this week’s spicier than usual cast down a road of fan fiction and debate. We discuss the possible reasons behind Zelda U’s extended dev cycle, possible ideas for Zelda’s 30th anniversary, angrily debate about Smash Bros Ballot characters, and consider the possibility of a Zelda game created by an American studio. Joining this week’s conversation is Jake (hitting on our guest as usual), Chris (never noticed by senpai), and our special guest, Vernon Shaw of Hot Pepper Gaming (Our resident Fan Fiction writer). Thanks to Brandon for this week’s theme song. If you have any of your own theme songs or topic ideas, feel free to email us at [email protected]. Thanks again to Jeesh for that awesome ending. Stick around after the show for more content!

  • ZI Podcast 26:Philosophy in Majora’s Mask, Why We Hate Skyrim, and Perfect Boss Battles, f. Triple-Q

    This week on the ZI Podcast, Adam (Your usual host) is joined by Jake (Just some guy), Caleb (From inside of a coffin), and special guest Triple-Q (He's an artist/remixer on Youtube). Our discussion led us down many paths, from the depth and underlying meanings in Majora's Mask (Adam even defends it at one point! Maybe he's sick?) to what defines a gaming genre and, for that matter, what defines games? With outtakes and a rich conversation, we invite you to join us as we banter and more on Episode 26 of Zelda Informer's best (and only) podcast series!

    Special thanks to those of you who submitted fan topics this week, as well as those who participated in last week's Consouls giveaway! We still have download codes left for albums so feel free to go back and listen in for your chance to win. Thanks also to HuskyByTheGeek for the intro theme this week. If you have any of your own fan topics, theme song submissions, questions, art, or anything, feel free to submit it to us at [email protected].

  • ZI Podcast 25:Smooth McGroove Jouns us to Talk Zelda Villains, Game Music, and Retro Versus Modern
    This week's episode of the ZI Podcast is a long one, but probably the best episode of the podcast yet! (It's all downhill from here...) This week we're joined by none other than Mr. Smooth McGroove himself as we talk about Zelda Villains, Modern Gaming versus Retro Games, as well as hear plenty of stories from Smooth's life. This week on the podcast your host is... (still, sadly) Adam, and he's joined by Jake (He has this embarassing thing to tell you), Chris (Lovable as always), Max (Aka Mr. McGroove, maker of dorky puns), and Charl (He's a cat and was asleep most of this episode, but I felt it was worth mentioning).

  • ZI Podcast Episode 24: Thoughts On The New 3DS, RPG Elements in the Zelda Franchise, Free Giveaway!

    On this week's ZI Podcast Adam (your usual host) is joined by Caleb (back again, hopefully for good), Gwen (one of our Copy Editors), and Special Guest Mei-Xing (You can call her Jessica). This week, we discuss the recently released New Nintendo 3DS XL, RPG elements in Zelda, and much more! Thanks to Husky By the Geek for your Intro and outro theme song, and thank you to Davis, Kyle, Logan, Owen, and Samuel for your fan topics this week! Also, Austin for your in-depth analysis of the lore and reasoning of Link’s appearance in the series. Appreciated the read and the topics you provided this week, they were awesome.

    This week we talk about movies, cast our own actors in the new Zelda TV Series!

  • ZI Podcast 22: New Zelda Merchandise, Weird Controllers, and Pokken Tournament

    Episode 22 of the ZI Podcast was a troubled one. Audio errors forced us to record an entirely new episode with very little time so this week's is shorter and yet has the same amount of awesome packed into it! This week Adam (your very very sleepy host) is joined by Katie (She's Australian, which is sorta neat) and Rodney (His words are sharp but his attitude is smooth) as we discuss new Zelda merchandise, Pokken Tournament, living in Hyrule and more!

    If you'd like to be a part of the action, then submit your fan topics, theme song submissions, cover art, and more to [email protected]. Thanks again to Ben (aka Husky By The Geek) for the Intro/Outro and to Brandon for writing in on this weeks episode. Also thanks to Logan for the music!
