Aside from the dad joke in the title, I'd like to hear some theories and answers regarding Stone Tower Temple from Majora's Mask. The transformation mask associated with it isn't like the transformation masks associated with the other temples. Does the Giants mask have anything to do with the...

I finally finished A Link to the Past for the first time today and the end credits really got me thinking: hyrulian dwarves? It looks like they were in Ancient Stone Tablets as well, does anybody have any lore on them from there? I can't tell if they have pointed ears or not. Looks like this...

I'm not talking about a holistic, considered answer to the best console, I want to talk about the finest plastic shell holding your pcbs together. What is the best-looking video game console on earth?! I've got a few ideas... 5: XBox 360 (OG) I never owned the 360 when it was current...

What animal do you talk to most throughout the series? An owl possibly? A fish? I haven't done my homework on this one but I'm wondering if it's maybe a frog. Phantom Hourglass, you talk to Cyclos and golden frogs. Twilight Princess, your talk to frogs as a wolf. Ocarina of Time, you talk to the...

*end click-bait* I was just watching a video about the legality of video game emulation and finally put something together that I had never noticed before. Yes, I'm a big fan of physical media so I'm not big on digital games so this annoys me even more. I also don't understand the subject very...

You may all recall my insistence over the past few months that Nintendo should hold everything back for TotK. There was no grand E3 showcase, no consistent updates, and even the final trailers showed little more than the opening cutscene. Granted, there was a treehouse the day before launch...

I can't find another thread about this movie yet. Weird. Anyway, give me your thoughts on this movie. I'm kind of guessing that there's no general thread on this because most people are waiting for the movie to come out on streaming. I could be totally wrong about this but I very rarely go out...

So I've never played any of the kingdom hearts games but I have a couple of them and I know that the series has some rabid fans so it's got to be worth playing. For some reason, it came to my mind that Bowser was in Wreck-It Ralph which is a Disney property So they probably ought to just throw...

What is this thing? Where does it come from? Why make such an uncomfortable helmet? So Ganondorf says that the Fused Shadow is an ancient power. Does it originate in Hyrule or the Twilight Realm? Or maybe somewhere else? The thing in really wondering about is the pair of dragons on the front...

Contended with a dude in YouTube today about the best Console for playing Zelda games. Is it the Steam Deck? The Switch? The Leapster? I'm going to take the easy way out and just copy/paste some of my thoughts. Tell me how I'm wrong about it. --- So it seems like a long way of saying that the...

Why? These blue bricks are scattered through OoT but what are they? Why are they? Do I remember right that they only appeared on the adult timeline? Either way, who put them there? I'm a big fan of Nintendo's "gameplay first" principle so it's totally fine if the only justification for these...

The Zuna are a race first (and thus far, only) encountered in the Desert of Doubt in Four Swords Adventures. They are a race of green-skinned nomads who exist alongside the Gerudo. Weirdly enough, we only meet them later in the timeline as Four Swords Adventures is the latest game in the Child...

Here's a thread of lamentations. What do you love about Zelda that's never coming back? I was thinking about it recently and I loved the Keatons. They were mythological, sentient, mysterious, they even had their own theme! Unfortunately, I don't see much of a chance that we'll see them ever...

Yeah, we all know the old debate. Does link remember the events of OoT in the child timeline? Here are a few thoughts. So in Majora's Mask, Link appears to remember learning the song of Time from Zelda. It goes differently from the events of OoT though, considering Zelda's words and the fact...

He's a tree, he could totally be in TotK. But what if he's not? Like, Korok seeds were a bit superfluous, especially after a certain point, but I think I'll miss them if Hestu's not in Tears. There are surely other options for gating inventory slots and other ways to make the world feel full and...

Put yourself in the shoes of the dev team and tell us what they were thinking as they built a Zelda game! I'll start us off. Dev 1: "We've got to subvert expectations or the transformation masks will just feel like gimmicks." Dev 2: "Uh... How about the Deku can fly?" Dev 1: "Ah, because...

I tried searching a few keywords and I can't seem to find a thread dedicated to gaming YouTube channel awareness. If there is one, let me know and I'll delete this thread. What are your favorite gaming YouTube channels? There are the obvious ones. Scott the Woz still holds up even all these...

I know it's a long shot but it actually fits pretty well. It would at least be ready to follow the train of thought down this path. Joshua 14:12 Now then, give me this hill country about which the Lord spoke on that day, for you heard on that day that Anakim were there, with great fortified...

Is there any sub boss more powerful than Blaino? I know wall masters and the eye...sucker...thing from Link's Awakening plop you back at the beginning of the level but you're stuck in a room with Blaino and he's so dang quick! If this dude whacks you, you're going to wake up feeling like you got...

This book is horrible but it's part of Zelda history so I read it to my oldest son. I don't suggest anybody else buy it but I'm glad I've got it anyway. Mine even had the wholesticker page intact! Now that page is a gem! Anyway, fun thing I figured somebody could correct me on because I couldn't...

https://bogleech.com/zelda.html Here's a fun little time machine I found a while back and have been wanting to share with you guys. Back in the wild west days of Zelda, there was less prejudice about the look and feel of the game because...well, there was only one game. No baggage, no lore...

I haven't been thinking about it long, but this strikes me as possibly the most perfectly comedic non-vocal scene in modern filmdom. The close-up of Sparrow's stoic face, the swelling music, the impeccable timing, everything was perfect. I'm sure there are plenty of other perfect non-vocal...

Goblin, Goriya, and Camo Goblin have been at the tavern, sitting around a table and knocking back a few ice-cold bottles of mind altering... Chateau Romani. Anyway, you've been minding your own business at the bar but the trio have been growing steadily louder. They're arguing about whatever...

So there are a lot of things in Zelda that people remember from certain games that actually had their origins in earlier games or media. What other sorts of iconic Zelda things had their origins outside of the game for which they're known?

Smash Ultimate. The name itself implies finality. Sakurai gonna Sakurai. Everybody's here (except a certain debonair dastard). Nintendo doesn't always make choices that I like but they don't usually milk series 'till they're dead the way many other developers do so we may have seen the last SSB...

I always felt that Gustaf was meant to play a larger role in the Minish Cap what with him being modeled and mentioned by name of the backstory and being dressed like Link but he didn't get much spotlight. Is there a significance to him being dressed in the green of the fields?

The Verge sucks but I skimmed an article today that got me thinking about console design. They pointed out that the original XBox had an eject button that sat higher and larger than the power button and was ringed by leds. They went on to say that the eject button becoming more obscure on...

I want to try doing a hard-cover leather wrap for a set of LotR books for my wife at stone point since she's considering reading them for the first time. Of course, I've got the budget collection that came out around the same time as Peter Jackson's Fellowship but it's paperback, cheap, and a...

(I'm sure this thread has been made a dozen times but I couldn't find one back through 2019 so I guess I'll stick a new thread here.) What are the best Zelda Music covers (or Zelda related music) out there? Do we all remember ZREO? that has an extensive and glorious project that really poured...

Found this this morning, had to pause my kid's show. What other universes can you cram into the Legend of Zelda?

Arlo didn't mention it, Commonwealth Realm didn't mention it, Zeltic didn't mention it, GameXplain didn't mention it, I'm starting to wonder if nobody else is asking the question. The final moments of the trailer show us the year "2019" against a black backdrop and 10 notes, which are presumably...

Surely far too early for this but let's have a quick gasp of activity around this concept before the thread is inevitably buried before being replaced by a more timely thread in 2021 when we get our first teaser trailer. Anyway, I got to thinking about this after seeing the wealth of content and...

So here I am, sitting on front of my newly- modded xbox (I've been told that we can't mention missing on the forums but I will continue to point to the fact that it's not illegal and not explicitly against the forum rules) and I decide to play Jedi Knight: Jedi Outcast. Good times, right? Hold...

Characters, races, items, locations, moments? What are the cutest things in Zelda? Sure, it's not the kind of question a burly man like myself ought to ask but I was thinking about tokay tonight and decided they are a likely candidate for the cutest Zelda race. I love the anouki as well. And...

http://www.siliconera.com/2018/08/05/the-legend-of-zelda-breath-of-the-wild-has-been-added-to-the-series-official-timeline/ I'm not going to say I told you so but...well, I guessed you so. It does make sense to me, it's a legend, there doesn't need to be a timeline, I couldn't have asked for a...

https://kotaku.com/nintendo-is-getting-a-new-president-1825557273/amp Nintendo has a long track record of presidents who held the title for decades, a fact which I believe likely plays into their success as a company. When Kimishima became Nintendo's President following Iwata's passing, I was...

Nintendo has been pushing their couch multiplayer with the Switch and a major first-party ip like Smash seems unlikely to pass up the possibility. The thing is, of course I don't want to have to buy a bunch of pro controllers for Smash, but I also don't want to play a version of Smash that makes...

Have you ever wondered what Fi or Midna are saying when they speak? Or perhaps you already know because you watch YouTube? Are there other sounds in Hyrule that are familiar or perplexing? I've got one: snapper. Yeah, the turtle from Majora's Mask. "@**-crap!" Right?! The last thing you hear...

Express.co.uk is a web site that you've probably come across while looking for news about video games. I'll be honest, their articles aren't always worthless, they do latch on to real news when it occurs. Unfortunately, even their useful articles are made out of click bait. Every time I look up...

https://www.google.com/amp/kotaku.com/gkids-takes-over-u-s-studio-ghibli-distribution-from-d-1797730952/amp So Zelda's art style has historically been inspired by Studio Ghibli and Breath of the Wild's anime look was specifically inspired by Miyazaki. Speaking of which...

I prefer the former but preferences have nothing to do with reality. I figure this is a great place to stick a comparison that you could find via a Google search since I can't find a break-down online. Let's break out the text dumps and look into this. LoZ: N/A AoL: N/A ALttP: N/A LA: N/A OoT...

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dérive This totally sounds like something Miyamoto would be into. I randomly came across this several days ago and immediately thought, "This is like the theory that spawned Breath of the Wild!" The exercise is performed as an exploration of the...

https://youtu.be/xGi23M_5lXg 0:01 https://youtu.be/1w7OgIMMRc4 1:16 I can't unhear it.

Imagine for a moment, that the unthinkable were to take place. I hate to even consider the idea but suppose tomorrow, without warning, Nintendo gets bought out by Sony who immediately proclaims that, while they will be maintaining the trademarks and copyrights on the Legend of Zelda, they will...

Has anyone found any they'd like to share? Surely there will be at least minor SPOILERS involved so be aware that there may be SPOILERS ahead. I found a cute one. Sorry for the crappy picture. This is a door which is accessible when the body is titled 90 degrees. It's nothing special but it's...

Again, *SPOILERS* herein lie spoilers for Breath of the Wild. There are Breath of the Wild spoilers in this thread. Do not read any further if you do not want to be exposed to SPOILERS for the video game The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Seriously. No, seriously. Still...

So I was considering today, I don't know anyone who has played FSA with four players and thought that multiplayer was a bad choice for the game. What I'm wondering is what your opinion of the game is and with how many players you have played the game through. I think this could be an interesting...

Why is it that we've never heard of Calatia in any of the games? It is said that Link actually originated there and it was a geographic orientation in comparison to Hyrule. I'm not saying that it's likely to come up again but I'm wondering why Nintendo didn't run with it when they had the...

Well that's pretty much it. All we really have as far as solid evcidence is a cryptic blurb from a gossip stone. There's plenty of circumstantial evidence, however, so tell me what you think!

https://www.google.com/search?client=ms-android-att-us&hl=en-US&oe=utf-8&safe=images&q=nx&source=browser-type&qsubts=1476924540468 Looks like the NX is breaking tomorrow. I feel like this deserves its own thread, since we're finally out of the realm of rumor (for now).
