A few weeks ago the folks at Dorkly conducted a poll to rate the top ten greatest Zelda games of all time. After getting nearly 200,00 votes they have finally posted the results of that poll in an article titled “10 Greatest Zelda Games in History”. They ave separated it into two parts, first there is a simple image lineup of all the games displaying them in order. Then there is the much more detailed article giving a brief description…

On September 22nd, Japanese publication My Navi posted the results of a poll they had conducted. They had surveyed the favorite Nintendo franchises for both Japanese men and women, and lo and behold The Legend of Zelda does indeed rank fairly high. How could it not considering its immense library of releases and several blockbuster hits? It seems as if Zelda is a bigger hit for the men than for the women, as it is second only to the Super…

Oh Top 10 lists how much I love you. Especially when they cover such a broad topic and span across every videogame that ever existed. The folks over at 411Mania have posted a countdown of their Top 10 Favorite Snow Levels. When you think snow (or ice for the matter), there are several Legend of Zelda dungeons that likely come to mind. The Ice Cavern from Ocarina of Time, Snowhead Temple from Majora’s Mask, the Snowpeak Ruins from Twilight Princess,…

A YouTuber by the name of vapidbobcat has recently posted a video of his Top 10 favorite musical tracks from Skyward Sword. After playing through Skyward Sword four times, I do think that Skyward Sword has one excellent soundtrack. However, I’m not sure if any of the individual tracks really stand out as being amongst the best in the series. At least not yet. Themes such as the Dark World from A Link to the Past, Stone Tower Temple from…

The folks at Den of Geek have recently posted an article listing the ten most memorable characters in the Zelda series. After all this time and so many sequels, the Zelda series has developed a huge universe and a cast of countless colorful characters. Many have helped, harmed, or simply annoyed players over the years in their numerous appearances through the series twenty five year history. In this article they take a closer look at the ones who have stood…

The folks over at ScrewAttack are celebrating Halloween with a countdown of their Top 10 Scariest Retro Enemies. When I think of scary enemies in the Legend of Zelda series, I immediately think of the ReDeads from Ocarina of Time and subsequent Legend of Zelda games. However, the more I think of it… Wallmasters might fit this description even better. Wallmasters first appeared in the original Legend of Zelda and have appeared in a variety of Zelda titles since. The…

It may be the most common thought that the Water Temple in Ocarina of Time is unnecessarily long, but Craig and Nick from ScrewAttack have found 5 additional levels that are worse than the Ocarina of Time Water Temple. Right above the Ocarina of Time Water Temple at number 5 was the Great Sea from The Wind Waker. Read on to see my take on the two selections.

These Top 10 lists happen all the time, but this one seems to have some titles that aren’t normally listed. There is no Super Mario 64, Final Fantasy VII, Super Mario Bros 3, Halo, and a whole bunch of other usual suspects. Instead, we get quite a variety of older titles and modern games as well. Reason being is that they use a distinctive system in ranking the games which they refer to as the Canon Fodder. They started with…

Zelda Informer posted a video on Tuesday with their picks for The Top 10 Best Zelda Items. The video is well done and shows a lot of great footage of these items in action and thouroughly explains their reasoning for choosing that item by way of narration. Also, the video omits basic items like Link’s sword and shield. Enjoy: A few of the choices don’t make sense to me, but I can understand why they choose it thanks to the…
