Episode 90 - A Zelda II: Adventure of Link Retrospective and Discussing Whether Or Not It Should Be Remade

We're back and kicking off 2020 in a hot way by going nearly an hour and half talking about the supposed back sheep of the Zelda series... Zelda II Adventure of Link! Somehow, we convinced Mases to join us two weeks in a row to deep dive into the second NES Zelda title. What did we love? What do we hate? Is this game as bad as people say? Can a new player realistically enjoy it in 202? And most of all, should this game be remade?

All this and more in an action packed episode! Hop in your time machine and join us as we wax nostalgic about this classic!

Episode 89 - Breath of the Wild 2 and Our Hopes and Expectations for Zelda in 2020

Episode 87 - Game Awards Reactions and Grading the Nintendo Switch's 2019

So... the Game Awards. Yikes. As you no doubt know by now, the Game Awards offered Nintendo fans a whole big steaming plate of nothing, offering three and a half hours worth of content with exactly zero really notable Nintendo announcements. In this weeks sow, we talk about our reactions and how long into the show until we all started drinking (spoiler: not long). All this, plus looking back on the year that was for the Nintendo Switch!

We talk all of Nintendo's ups and downs for the year, so make sure you don't miss out on this episode!

Episode 85 - We Review the Best Zelda Ever 2019 List and Pick Out What We Agree and Disagree With

Zelda Dungeon recently launched its biggest feature of the year with its Best Zelda Ever 2019 Edition List, so the crew get together and weight in on what they think of each games placement. How did Twilight Princess rank so high? How did Skyward Sword rank so low? Do too many people have rosy colored glasses when it comes to A Link to the Past? And most importantly - how does Kevin live with himself ranking Tri Force Heroes as his favorite Zelda?!

All this and more in this action packed episode!

Episode 84 - Debating All The Aspects That Make Skyward Sword the Most Divisive Game Ever

Put your fighting gloves on 'cause it's time to pick your side in the Zelda Dungeon Civil War! With Best Zelda Ever 2019 coming this week, Andy, Alasyn, and Rod reflect on the most divisive Zelda game ever: Skyward Sword. You either love it or you hate it, and we examine why that is. Does Demise undermine Ganon? Were the controls really that bad? Is Fi the best or worst companion? Where do we fall on narrative vs exploration?

These questions are just the tip of the iceberg! I think this is one of the best episodes ever of The Champions' Cast, so give it a listen and let us know where you fall!

Episode 83 - How Pokémon Sword & Shield Reminds Us of Breath of the Wild

Hello everybody and welcome to The Champions' Cast Pokémon Cast! With not a lot of Zelda news going on, the crew decides to deep dive into the world of Pokémon Sword and Shield! What are our initial impressions? Do we like the Galar region? What aspects of these games remind us of Breath of the Wild? Is this game groundbreaking enough to be called "the BOTW of Pokémon"? Maybe most importantly, is Hop the most annoying character Nintendo has ever created? Plus, why Okamiden is worth your time!

Come join Andy and Alasyn as they take a week off from Zelda and talk Pokémon!
