The Game Awards Show of 2015 has now come and gone, and sadly for us Zelda fans, we all ended the evening disappointed! We dared to hope that Nintendo would offer us a gleaming light of news for our future adventures in Zelda Wii U, but alas that was not to be. In fact no new announcements were made by Nintendo at all, which for many of us came as somewhat of a surprise. There was one notable moment from…

The Game Awards Show 2015 will air in just a few days, celebrating the best the video game industry had to offer this year. Nintendo has already confirmed that they will be in attendance, and during a Q&A session on Periscope, Geoff Keighley teased Nintendo fans about a couple of things. Among other things that were discussed Keighley mentioned that Nintendo has some new stuff to show off, and considering that they previewed gameplay footage for Zelda U at last…

Although here at Zelda Dungeon our focus is to bring you the latest from the worlds that revolve around what we believe to be one of the best video game franchises in history, The Legend of Zelda. There has been occasion that we have broken from that focus to bring you the latest news from Nintendo, as was the case this past July when we brought you the devastating news that President and CEO of Nintendo, Satoru Iwata had passed…

On this more somber (and sleepy) episode of the ZeldaInformer Podcast, we get a lesson from GameXplain’s Derrick on the legacy of Satoru Iwata, as well as many other topics. The discussions are on the quieter end, but full of very informative and thought-provoking discussion on the idea of a Gaming Legacy. Your cast members for this week are…

As most gamers already know, Nintendo President Satoru Iwata passed away last Sunday. For those of us who may not know how to express our grief over this loss, a good idea would be to put your thoughts down in writing. Tokyo Otaku Mode is sending fan messages of thanks, farewell, and support concerning Iwata’s passing to Nintendo and to Iwata’s family members. All you have to do to be a part of this is add your message to the…

It’s time again for ZI’s weekly Photoshop Contest, but as many of you are aware, this week has seen a bit of heartbreak. Last weekend, just a few days after the start of last week’s contest, we tragically lost one of the game industry’s biggest heroes, Satoru Iwata. He was hugely important to me and to many others, so this week’s contest will serve as a way to honor his memory. Let’s quickly look back at last week’s contest: Misusing the Minish Cap, and we can then show our respects to Satoru Iwata…

With the sad news of Iwata’s passing so fresh on our minds, many of us are trying to find ways to share our thoughts and feelings about the loss we have in our hearts. Even here at Zelda Dungeon we felt it cathartic to get our thoughts down and share them with the world in this week’s ZD Talks. There has been such an outpouring of love and sadness we have seen throughout this whole week that you can really…

To say we at Zelda Informer are fairly shaken at the news of 

Iwata’s passing is likely an understatement (just watch a very emotional Editor-in-Chief pay tribute). Another similar instance and feeling was when the world lost Robin Williams, another person with ties to the Zelda series, though from a completely different entertainment medium. Of course, both of these great men passed from this earth due to totally different…

Just a few days ago we heard the saddening news that President and CEO of Nintendo, Satoru Iwata had passed away at the age of 55. This news came as a shock to many of us even though we knew he had been battling a bile duct growth for quite some time, it had seemed as if his health had improved. His life has ended too soon and he leaves behind a legacy that will be remembered fondly by those…
