Echoes of Wisdom’s announcement inspired Zelda fan creators around the world. Since the game’s reveal, artists, animators, writers, and musicians have posted fan works dedicated to and influenced by the game all over the internet. You’ve no doubt seen, heard, or read many of these pieces. They’re each a bit of the game we can enjoy before we play it on September 26th. Today, we’d like to bring Patti Rudisill’s cover of Echoes of Wisdom’s main theme to your attention….

In addition to the surprise release of The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, a gorgeous new variant of the Switch Lite (Hyrule Edition) was announced to coincide with the game’s release. The new handheld edition features a golden console body, black buttons and sticks, a small Triforce insignia near the right stick, and a large Hylian Crest on the back. This beautiful piece of hardware will be sure to sell quickly, and it’s unknown at this time how limited…

If you love Majora’s Mask (and who doesn’t?), take a look at this stunning and unique diorama featuring the Moon, Deku Link, and the Deku Mask!

Sold by DioramasYP, this item is available on Etsy for £90 GBP (approx. $115 USD), and includes free UK shipping (worldwide delivery is available at an extra cost).

With the release of The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom’s trailer, there are a few familiar faces that are making a return. Within the trailer, we can see shots of a Deku Scrub, (likely a Business Scrub, based on designs from Majora’s Mask), River and Sea Zora, and the Gerudo! While these races seem fairly common to the Zelda franchise, it’s odd to see these few in a 2D Zelda setting. While they all have made an appearance in 2D titles, it’s been…

A new Legend of Zelda fan zine is on the horizon and pre-orders are open! Residents of the Wild is a charity fan zine that celebrates the diverse cast of NPCs from Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. An introduction from Residents of the Wild co-head, organization, and writing mod MickeyTaco states: “It’s our goal through this zine to celebrate as many of the NPCs from Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom  as we…

When the trailer for The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom showed off a playable Zelda, I immediately thought, “This looks great, and it offers a new twist for the Zelda franchise.” But then I saw that Zelda wouldn’t be using a sword (as far as what we can see from the trailer, at least). Instead, Zelda has the Tri Rod as her primary tool, which recreates objects and monsters based on previous encounters. The feminist in me instantly thought…

In the recent Nintendo Direct, The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom and the limited edition golden Switch Lite stole the show for Zelda fans. However, one other Zelda announcement occurred and should not be overlooked: The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past & Four Swords was brought to the Game Boy Advance (GBA) application for Nintendo Switch Online (NSO). Earlier this year, I wrote about the remaining games in the Zelda series that haven’t yet appeared on…

Virtual reality (VR) gaming is still pretty much in its early stages. Systems such as Meta Quest or PlayStation VR have bulky visors and hand-control grips, but for the most part the hand controls are similar to any modern console. Nintendo’s answer to VR gaming, the Nintendo Labo, uses the Switch itself and some funny cardboard peripherals to play fairly simple VR games. With the Labo VR headset, you can play both Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odyssey, but…

Salutations, Zelda fans! Are you ready for another fun-filled edition of the Zelda Dungeon Caption Contest? As many of you know, I hosted a special live edition of the contest at the Zelda Dungeon Marathon a few weeks ago. During that segment, I offered viewers a glimpse at an upcoming contest image inspired by the newly announced The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom. That image was meant to be featured last week, but because last Monday happened to fall…
