One thing that’s usually accounted for in a game is its soundtrack. Depending on its quality, that may improve thoughts/opinions of the title. It’s a huge part of the game, and will hardly go unnoticed. There are some that are good, and some that are bad- it all depends on the effort given and the composer in-charge. The Legend of Zelda has had quite a few games, and their soundtracks are pretty hard to overlook. That’s why I’m going to talk about…

As one of the oldest, and arguably greatest, video game franchises around, it isn’t uncommon to see Zelda titles make lists of personal favorite games of all time.

As you already know from reading the title of this article, that game is Twilight Princess. Hit the jump for more details.

Hello Zelda fans. Minish Pants here, with the first of hopefully many articles discussing our favorite parts of particular Zelda games. I’ve decided to start with Skyward Sword, as it is the freshest in my mind. I will eventually get around to all of them, in no particular order (unless a commenter asks nicely!) as I replay each game.

Welcome to an all-new weekly feature I will be starting today called Timeshift Thursday in which I’d like to share in detail some of my favorite Legend of Zelda exploration areas from past titles in the series. For my first feature, I would like to take you back to an area from my fave Zelda title, Twilight Princess, where Nintendo, for the first time, greatly emphasized a wild western theme into its number one action-adventure series….

One of the first features Wii owners hoped for when its successor, Wii U, became known to the public was the thought about Wii games upscaling to HD because of Wii U’s support toward the higher resolution capability. Unfortunately, the ability to convert Wii games to full HD is unsupported yet we do know that certain titles such as an awesome Zelda game in Twilight Princess showcases an improved picture display when played via Wii U. It’s not a vast…

After the special edition of the Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword was announced nearly 4 months ago, fans quickly were raising the question, what about a golden nunchuck? While we never did get one for Skyward Sword, it turns out we are in fact getting one now! Better late than never I guess. The Golden Nunchuck was announced at the Japanese Club Nintendo website and it will be available for 600 points. However, there is currently a promotion where if…

In a recent interview with Time Techland, Reggie Fils-Aime talked a bit about Nintendo’s future and answered a number of Zelda related questions. First and foremost he opened with Skyward Sword, stating that it opened up as the fastest selling Zelda game ever. He would go on to make comparisons to Twilight Princess, sales numbers for older Zelda titles, digital content, and other non-Zelda information. You can see part of the interview below, but make the jump to see all…
