Recently, a new challenge has taken the world by storm, the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. This challenge had been created by the ALS Association in order to raise money for research for ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.) The challenge is fairly simple, people are nominated to take the challenge, and they record a video of them first stating who they are nominating and then having ice water poured on them. If the nominees don’t post a video within 24 hours, they…

The ALS Association is currently raising money for research for people with Lou Gehrig’s disease, which currently has no cure, and Jason Rappaport, head of Zelda Universe, recently took the ALS Ice Bucket challenge. You can see Jason’s challenge in the video below.

Details surrounding A Link Between Worlds‘ Hero Mode, announced not to long ago by Nintendo, have been released on the Zelda Universe Forums. Wondering how difficult it will be? Wondering if it is worth the second play through? Read more on it after the jump!

Having run a Legend of Zelda fan website for nearly 12 years, part of the everyday joy has been the interactions I’ve had with many of my fellow Zelda community websites. While at times things are quite competitive and nauseating, we really are all on the same team in the grand scheme of things. Our friends over at Zelda Universe had the great honor of sitting down with Eiji Aonuma for a 30-minute interview at this years E3. While the…

Our good friends over at Zelda Universe have been given a privileged opportunity to conduct a face-to-face interview with our favorite Legend of Zelda violinist, Lindsey Stirling. If you’d like to have the opportunity to get to know her better then this is the interview you’d most want to see as she discusses her profession, concert details, special YouTube music videos, her love of portraying Link, and her gaming experiences including revealing her favourite Zelda game! Zelda Universe have split…

If you have spent some time on the Internet, you are bound to find new and interesting ways people are capable of producing artwork. This is one of those days. An artist from Japan uses not canvas, paper, or computer to create his work, but a hot cup of latte, the kind of coffee with just enough steamed milk to make an image. But unlike your usual hearts the barista might make, this guy’s work is much more intricate. The…

Zelda’s open world exploration has always been a memorable gaming experience ever since Nintendo implemented the technique into its very first title of the series. Open world exploration maintained itself throughout Zelda titles released in the 90’s and onward through to The Wind Waker and The Minish Cap in the early 2000s. Yet, according to an article at Zelda Universe, the open world exploration method is starting to vanish from all recent Zelda titles and is starting to create a lack of excitement…

Our friends over at Zelda Universe have gone all out in creating a web-based treasure hunt full of riddles and puzzles all related to Zelda. Mum is the word on exactly what the prizes are, but they reveal that the prizes are worth over $500! Beginning at “The Temple” (which bears a striking resemblance to their own website) players are expected to find their way inside and then choose one of our doors, each unlocked during a different week, which…

Sure we have our very own mailbag here at Zelda Dungeon hosted by Axle the Beast, but this isn’t an exclusive feature. Our friends over at Zelda Universe also run a mailbag of their own, but more recently they have fallen into a drought of not having enough questions to answer. Rather than skip a week or scrap the thing all together, their creative minds created one of the most exciting mailbags to date. Storming the streets of Stockholm Sweden,…

What is more important, gameplay or story? Eiji Aonuma, producer of many Zelda games, thinks the answer is gameplay. He was quoted in Hyrule Historia saying that while developing the games, he was more focused on pleasant controls in a 3D world, comfortable stylus controls, and an easy way to swing your sword using the Wii Motion Plus, while story elements came second to that. The Missing Link over at Zelda Universe recently wrote an article on why Aonuma is…
