This week Andy is away, so Al is joined by Zelda Dungeon's Editor in Chief, Rod Lloyd! Rod is here to share about his experience at PAX West and his thoughts after playing the demo for Echoes of Wisdom! What portion of the game did he get to play? What kind of Echoes did he get to encounter? How did he feel about puzzles and combat after all was said and done? Rod and Al chat about all this, as well as the Hyrule Café 2 album, the recent Zelda timeline kerfuffle, and more!

It was a busy week for Nintendo, as in addition to putting on Zelda-themed booth at PAX West, they also dropped a new Echoes of Wisdom trailer showing off tons of new footage and abilities! We're joined by our good friend Corey Richmond this week as we break down the trailer and give our thoughts and takeaways; we go over the Still World, the void that only Zelda and Tri can enter; discuss our excitement for the return of traditional dungeons; and debate if the Swordfighter ability was truly needed, or if it's a step backwards for Princess Zelda. We wrap it up with some stray observations and other notes on things that stood out in the trailer - if you want to watch it in video form, check out here!
All this, PLUS we give some quick thoughts on the Indie and Partner Direct, plus a little Zelda Cartoon and Rings of Power chatter! Come hang out with us!

We're back for part two of our Breath of the Wild / Tears of the Kingdom hot takes (and a few Age of Calamity ones in there too!). This week, we're tackling subjects like: was Yunobo the best character across the Wild era games? Do the Divine Beast dungeons offer a more welcoming for new players puzzle experience? Was it disappointing the Pirates in Lurelin were just Moblins? Are Remote Bombs the best rune/ability? Is Colgera seriously the most disappointing boss in the game? Was Calamity Ganon more interesting than Ganondorf?
All this and so much more, PLUS our thought on the Nintendo Museum and strange American geography! Come have a blast with us!

One of our favorite segments returns this week! We asked for YOUR spiciest hot takes regarding Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, and boy oh boy, you guys delivered, SO MUCH SO that this will be PART 1 of a two part episode! We're reacting to all sorts of takes, including: is Tears a great experience, or just glorified DLC? Is Cece's Mushroom hat better than the Couples Mask? Would Kohga have been a better choice of villain than Ganondorf? Do fighting bosses again in the Depths diminish the impact of fighting them in a dungeon? Speaking of, are the dungeons of Tears and Breath of the Wild better than many traditional dungeons?
All this and so much more! If you want to contribute next week, feel free to do so, and we can even get Age of Calamity in on the action! Until next week!

Hello Zelda fans! We got a nice treat this week, as Nintendo randomly dropped about 6 minutes of footage from Echoes of Wisdom for us to sink our teeth into! We discuss TONS of things shown off, including out thoughts on Bond and Reverse Bond and how that impacts the gameplay, smoothies and how they seem to be a proxy for Elixirs, the confirmation of side quests and an adventure log, our first look at Impa and King Hyrule, Zelda's new outfits, our thoughts on the new regions in the game, and of course, Zelda's horse riding skills!
All this, PLUS a little Borderlands Movie talk and some cool Omega Metroid announcements! Come hang out with us!

After a long, LONG layover, we are back streaming Ocarina of Time Randomizer by popular demand! Last time we we played, we had just beaten King Dodongo but got stuck with a lack of items trying to get into Jabu Jabu's Belly, so this time, we're scouring Hyrule looking for upgrades! We venture to Kakariko Village, Goron City, the Lost Woods, and Gerudo Valley in search of items, PLUS Andy learns that Epona can jump across the Gerudo bridge, we find the Megaton Hammer in the Gerudo Training Grounds, and discover the location of the Hookshot - although it's just out of reach!
W had a blast, and if you want to watch the full video, click here to go to our Twich page! Ocarina of Time Randomizer WILL be back!

Andy and Al are off this week, so we're uploading a really fun conversation our YouTube Crew had involving the bosses of Tears of the Kingdom! The Tier Force Heroes gang is getting together to rank every boss from the game in a (you guessed it) tier based on how much they liked or didn't like them! Enjoy this episode this week and then get ready for Ocarina of Time Randomizer coming back next week, Aug 4th at 12pm MST, live over on our Twitch channel!
In the meantime, make sure to check out the TFH gang and subscribe to them!

It's time again for everyone's favorite hypothetical Zelda game to return! That's right - Zelda's Percentages is back after 9 months! The premise is very simple: we make a hypothetical statement and assign a percentage on the likelihood of that statement coming true. This week is Echoes of Wisdom focused, as we touch on if the game can break 10 million in sales, whether Shiek makes a cameo appearance, if there will be a brand new villain, and if we'll end up fighting Link at some point in the game! We also sprinkle in some general Zelda questions, like if the Zelda movie will end up with a critics score of 75% or higher on Rotten Tomatoes, if Princess Zelda is playable in the next Mario Kart game, if Nintendo will ever acknowledge the Zelda timeline again, and so much more!
Come play along with us, and get ready for the return of Ocarina of Time randomizer next week!

This week, we're putting a bow (for now!) on our Echoes of Wisdom announcement coverage as we answer some of Zelda Dungeon's Daily Debates regarding the new game, and sprinkle a few about Zelda in general for good measure too! On the docket this time: will Link and Zelda speak in game? Will Echoes of Wisdom lean more open world or have a more linear progression? Should we expect this game to be in the Downfall timeline? Is Zelda going to abandon the Triforce going forward? How could Nintendo improve its online experience? What's the most celebratory moment in the series? All this, and so much much more!
Don't miss next week, as we'll be live streaming Four Swords and giving our thoughts and trying to co-exist! The stream starts at 12 pm MST July 14th over on our Twitch page! See you all then!
