This is just off the top of my head, based on both games I've played and what I know to be general consensus, but this is what I would consider to be the greatest game from each Nintendo console: NES: Super Mario Bros 3 SNES: The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (Honorable mention Super...

What's your stance on loading a previous save if you get into a bad situation? I tend to try to avoid it, but sometimes I cave. Usually if it's a difficult combat encounter, I just give it my all anyway, kill it or die trying. Sometimes if I make a mistake in buying something or realize there...

Idk if this will get anywhere but discuss albums you've listened to recently! I listened to Metallica's self-titled in my driving back and forth to work today, solid 10/10 there. I also checked out Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd recently, I enjoyed it, will probably give it another listen...

*TOTK final boss spoilers* I was thinking about some of the various Ganon(dorf) final boss fights across the series, and realized that the phases tend to fall under one of two patterns: Either it starts as a Ganondorf fight, but just as you think you've taken him out, he revives in some sort...

(Continued from a discussion between @Hyrulian Hero and myself in another thread.) Isn't there also the thing about Gerudo having children with Hylians? It kinda seems to me like Sheikah, Hylians, Gerudo, etc are all human, just whatever versions of humans that exist in Hyrule.

Currently on the water temple, and I am clueless as to how I'm supposed to hit the switch on the pillar that's spinning extremely fast. I did manage to clear the sludge with the floating water orb thing, but am I just supposed to get a lucky hit with the bow or is there a solution I'm not seeing??

There was one for BotW so now there's one for BotW2 aka TotK. Here's a few of my shenanigans on the great skisland:

There's like 2 other people on this forum that are interested in this movie, but I need a thread for this month and don't wanna wallpost about this movie too much in ltpw. We've seen the casting choices already, and recently we got a release date, October 27th (which seems kinda soon imo, only...

Did a similar thread to this that was Zelda specific, this one is about all video games, what are some of your favorite cutscenes?

I recently purchased 3 tickets to the NASCAR Cup race at COTA at the end of March, the first time I've ever bought my own tickets. It's pretty exciting and also nerve-racking, I kept checking and trying to figure out how to get at them when the race day comes even tho it;s still a month away. So...

What's your favorite overworld theme? One that doesn't really ever just fade into background noise or even start to bore you? Mine is, belive it or not, Hyrule Field from Twilight Princess. It's bold, brave, adventurous, I don't really know how to describe music but yeah TP Hyrule field goes hard

Was in the Fire Temple tonight and got reminded of how much I love the torch slugs. The way they perk up with their eyestalks and attack you, and even better, the way they lose all rational judgement and retreat when they lose their fire. They're goofy little guys and I love them. What are some...

Too complex for fast paced shoutbox so here: Each of the 4 races, say whether you like the champion or descendant better and explain why. Rito: Descendant. Hardest one for me, they're both really good but I'll take protective father for this one. Goron: Champion. One is one of my top 3...

I'm not talking regular stuff like Sprite or Coke (Although McDonalds Sprite is good tho), I'm talking about stuff you can only get at one specific place. I'm a big fan of Sonic slushes, especially the strawberry ones.

Regardless of how much you use 'em, are there any taunts you like? My #1 all time favorite is Wolf's up taunt, his howl. It's the one I'm most likely to use after a KO. I also like Zelda's wave, I think it's her side taunt? Dedede's crouch is another favorite.

There's a lot of ways and methods to mash buttons and swing swords in the series, which opens up to different fighting styles. Some games with more freedom than others, such as TP and MC having the hidden sword skills. What are some of the methods you favor? I've found myself using the sword...

Like Where's Waldo but with Donkey Kong, edit DK into different images and try to find where other people hid him.

If you were to teach someone that had never played any Smash game how to play, which character would you set them up with? I was showing my mom the ropes today, and I made her use Fox because his special moves are very straightforward, the standard is a gun, the side is a dash, the up launches...

If Wind Waker and Twilight Princess were to come to the Switch, would you rather see the HD versions of each one separately for full price, or a cartridge with the original of each ones for full price?

I'm sure everyone knows this already, but lemme say it one more time: This story is connected to the ongoing roleplay on here called Boo's Pizza II: Electric BOOgaloo. I wrote because I wanted to get to know my OCs better and I felt that a written story would be a better way to do that than a...

I'm one of the last people I'd expect to make a thread like this, but do you think it would be a reasonable change in language to consider emojis as punctuation:suspicious: I find myself using them as punctuation sometimes because they really help show the tone of a sentence, and it looks weird...

Welcome everyone to 2022, and welcome to another Super Smash Brothers..... ULTIMATE tournament!! I will be your host, Chevywolf30, and here are our rules: You know the rules, and so do I: When signing up, please state the characters you plan to use, 2-3 preferably. Matches will be best 2 out of...

New Year's Eve is this Friday, so what are ya gonna do? My family's original plan was to go and spend it with our church at the fellowship hall, but then some of our family got sick, so we're just gonna have it at home. We've got some snack traditions, and we just hang out, I'm probably gonna...

https://tiermaker.com/create/rank-nintendo-franchises-572838 I put in my own labels for the different tiers, feel free to put your own as you see fit.

And why is it wheel?

Tell your Guardian stories here! Like pretty much everyone I'm sure, my first Guardian encounter was the ruined ones on the Plateau, and I just ran like a baby past them. My first Stalker encounter was the tower that's swarming with Guardians. My first defeat was after getting the ancient...

What are some games that have come out or you found in the past 5 or so years that you have a lot of nostalgia for nonetheless?

My like and haha reactions aren't fully loading, is there anything I can do to fix this? EDIT: I deleted all the ZD cookies from my phone but that didn't work.

Share your favorite songs for the spooky season. I'm gonna steal a slam-dunk answer:

Vox is usually full of crap imo, but this was a really good video. I'd even thought about the California fire situation that maybe the best idea would be to just leave it alone because forests need fire, and this video kinda indirectly answered my questions on that. Definitely worth a watch.

Have you ever been exposed to a franchise before you really got into it? I remember watching Return of the Jedi on tv once, but I didn't really get into Star Wars until a few years later. Similarly, I watched a friend redo the Calamity Ganon fight just for fun years before I got into Zelda.

Simple, find something the two above posters have in common, be it something obvious like their join dates or something obscure that one typically wouldn't think of when seeing those two members. Both the users above are nonexistent

A large part of older games is seeing how they differ from today's games. Many times there will be outdated mechanics that don't hold up well, even if they were common for their time. Most of these are just devs experimenting with game design and are unavoidable, but what are some mechanics that...

I've had the idea for a while to write various scenarios if the different Zelda games had cars, and I've finally decided to go through with it. Just gonna skip through and write major story points that would be greatly affected by this change. I'd also like suggestions for some creative...

Something long rumored and desired is that Nintendo add an N64 online option, similar to the already existing NES and SNES services, but it's unlikely that ever happens. If they were to make an N64 Online option, and assuming it had all the classics and then some, what would be the first game...

Image search the username of the last poster, and post one of the images that comes up! I'l start with Zelda Dungeon:

This is real I swear

If you literally were your username, what would you look like?

Are you a fan of any artists, but not super seriously? You enjoy a few of their songs randomly or sumn, and so you call yourself a fan of said artists but it's kinda an ironic thing. For example: a couple of years ago, Kanye West made a Christian album, and I think it slaps, I even have the CD...

Alright, it's time to fight! Matches will be 3 stock, no items, Smash meter is acceptable. 3 fights per match, best 2 out of 3 moves on Character switching is allowed only if you lose a match. Stage choice is up to the people having the match. If y'all can't agree just do random or sumn...

Alright, let's get this show on the road! I'm gonna keep this very non restrictive, and we'll tweak it in future tournaments if needed. For this tournament: Matches will be no items, Smash meter is acceptable. 3 fights, best 2 out of 3 will win. Matches are 3 stock Character switching is...

This summer has been pretty wack. Up in the northern USA, they're constantly getting temperature over 100°f, while in NWA and the rest of the South, its been a pretty hot day if we break 90°f and we're getting a lot of rain. Is there any one thing that's making this happen, or is it just a weird...

Hello, everyone! I am now in charge of the Smash tournaments, but I've never done something like this before, so I want y'alls feedback! Right now I've got two different models I'm considering. Model #1 is similar to how Terminus runs the Pokemon tournaments, I would set up a bracket and...

We have a thread for fun facts in general, but I thought a general fun fact thread would be...fun. My first fact: I've been a NASCAR fan since before I was born. The first time my mom felt me kick was when they were watching a race, the night I was born was a Busch (now Xfinity [basically like...

(Continued from a discussion in the thread what are you doing in BotW) Yeah I'll see a pinwheel or yellow flower and just go "meh" and keep going. It's nice to have some extra inventory, but the more you have the more you want and it gets old.

So what do y'all think? Playable Zelda seems off the menu now, but I really liked the fancy new Sheikah Slate powers. Especially that Stasis clip, Stasis is by far my favorite rune. Also that monster camp on the Talus... :eyes:

I'm reading a book in a series right now that is known for having too much extra content, not much that advances the plot. I agree, but I also don't mind it in this case because there's a lot of good worldbuilding and lore in it. Are there any books or shows in your experience that have a lot of...

Sometimes something in a game will take you off guard even if it wasn't meant to. For example, when I was playing TP and Yeta is waiting outside that one room, it scared me to see her right there. Also, just tonight I'm in Hazy Maze Cave and at the swimming beast in the cavern and I didn't see...

Post a Zelda game, mainline or spinoff (Yes, you can guess AoC,) and hope it's the next poster's favorite game! Gonna start by saying v likes BotW

Cutscenes are a major way that the Zelda series, and all video games, progress the story. While some may be minor, and only serve to tell you your mission, others can make a major plot shift and leave you going "wow" Any of the Twilight Princess cutscenes are very cinematic, but my personal...
