The Legend of Zelda’s Wildest Fan Theory Says Link is the Real Villain

New DVD release, , , ,
The world of Legend of Zelda fan theories is usually a pretty wild place (some fans still believe that Link and Zelda are brother and sister), but I’m not sure if I’ve ever heard a Zelda fan theory as crazy or amusing as the idea that the real villain of The Legend of Zelda franchise is Link himself. Now, it’s possible that you’ve heard variations of this story before that essentially amount to “Link is occasionally a bit of jerk.” We’ve probably all joked about his fondness for smashing pots and swiping at chickens at one point or another, and…

The Legend of Zelda: What is the Origin of Link’s Name?

New DVD release, ,
A few years ago, Shigeru Miyamoto managed to troll the internet by “revealing” that Link’s full name is “Link Link.” It may have just been a cute nod to the fact that Mario’s name is apparently Mario Mario (a joke established by the infamous 1993 Super Mario movie), but considering that there is so much about Link and the Zelda universe that remains mysterious, fans tend to be invested in anything that Miyamoto says about the franchise. If you ask me, though, Link’s first name has always been more interesting than his last name. After all, why did Nintendo decided…

The Legend of Zelda: Are Zelda and Link Really Brother and Sister?

New DVD release, , , ,
In a recent look at the many unsolved mysteries and urban legends of the Legend of Zelda franchise, I briefly mentioned the idea that Zelda and Link are somehow related. At the time, I felt that the idea that those two characters could possibly be related was simply an urban legend. However, it’s since been pointed out that some interpretations of their relationship actually make that idea something closer to an unsolved mystery. It sounds crazy, but what’s really crazy is that a deeper look into this subject reveals that the nature of Link and Zelda’s relationship throughout the years…

15 Strangest Legend of Zelda Unsolved Mysteries and Urban Legends

New DVD release, , , , , ,
The Legend of Zelda‘s 35th anniversary didn’t get much of a celebration (or even an acknowledgment) from Nintendo, but that hasn’t stopped fans from thinking back on the incredible history of one of gaming’s greatest franchises. Take a long enough trip down memory lane, though, and you’ll find that the Zelda franchise is filled with uncharted detours into urban legends, conspiracy theories, and unsolved mysteries that prove even one of the most famous and discussed series in video game history can still leave us with questions. From dungeons with unfortunate designs to mysterious manors tucked away in snowy mountains, these…

Zelda: Skyward Sword Joy-Cons a Blow to Left-Handed Link Fans

New DVD release, , ,
While The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD for Nintendo Switch was arguably the biggest game revealed during Nintendo’s recent Direct presentation, it’s hardly a surprise that the internet is losing its collective mind over the also recently revealed Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword Joy-Cons. I mean, just look at them: The colors alone make these controllers a winner, but the real joy they inspire comes from the fact that they’re modeled after Link’s most famous pieces of equipment. The right Joy-Con is designed to resemble the Master Sword while the left sports a design similar to the one typically…

Can The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword be Saved by the Switch?

New DVD release, , , , ,
A few years ago, I asked Zelda fans to forgive Skyward Sword for its shortcomings and find a little room to love some of the things that the game did so well. I stand by that plea, but the truth of the matter is that I’ve always found it difficult to defend the title against a legion of gamers who consider Skyward Sword to be unplayable due to the prevalence of the project’s controversial motion controls. Some of the problems with Skyward Sword‘s motion controls come down to technical and design flaws that Nintendo really should have done a better…

Nintendo Direct 2/17 Trailers: Super Smash Bros, Mario Golf, Zelda, and More

New DVD release, , , , , ,
It’s been quite a while since Nintendo has hosted a substantial Direct presentation that focuses on trailers and news for the biggest upcoming Switch games. In fact, this February 17th showcase was the Nintendo Direct of its kind since September 2019. Of course, the long gap between such presentations is understandable given that the COVID-19 pandemic delayed production schedules across the industry and impacted everyone’s ability to share substantial updates about their upcoming releases. As a result, 2020 Nintendo Direct presentations were highlighted by a celebration of Super Mario‘s 35th anniversary, indie showcases, and various Super Smash Bros. updates. At…
