    Episode 327 - Zelda's Percentages Returns to Talk Echoes of Wisdom and More

    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!

    Episode 326 - Playing and Discussing The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Live!

    ith its recent addition to Nintendo Switch Online's Game Boy Advance roster, we decided to switch it up (get it!?) a little bit and do a different kind of episode this week! We wrangled together Gooey Fame of Virtual Theater / Flashback 64 and Zelda Dungeon legend Josh Zelinsky to play The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords from start to finish! We battle Vaati, our internet connection, and each other through all four levels while also discussing things like Four Sword's legacy, its influence on Minish Cap and Four Swords Adventures, differences between the original and Anniversary Edition, and so much more!
     

    You can listen in podcast form of course, but consider checking out the full VOD to get the whole experience! Let us know what you think of Four Swords!

    Episode 325 - Echoes of Wisdom Daily Debates Discussed and Analyzed

    Episode 325 - Echoes of Wisdom Daily Debates Discussed and Analyzed

    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!

    Episode 324 - We Answer Your Echoes of Wisdom Questions!

    Episode 324 - We Answer Your Echoes of Wisdom Questions!

    We're back this week answering all of your Echoes of Wisdom questions! On the docket, we have subjects like: do we think that the combat of Echoes could get repetitive? Will there be a playable Link section in this game, or just strictly Zelda? Where in the timeline do we see this game falling? Are dungeons making their return, and if so, do they play more like traditional 2D dungeons? Speaking of, ill the dungeon maker mode from Link's Awakening 2019 return? Is one of the most proud traditions in Zelda - the trading sequence - due for a return?
    All this and so much more, PLUS a little tease for an upcoming show! Come and hang out with us!

    Episode 323 - The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom Revealed: Our Thoughts and Reactions!

    Episode 323 - The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom Revealed: Our Thoughts and Reactions!

    It's a special WEDNESDAY edition of the Zelda Cast, and for good reason: for the first time in almost 40 years, we now have a Zelda game where you play as Princess Zelda! The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom was announced in Tuesday's Nintendo Direct, a brand new Zelda game starring the titular character and a mysterious fairy named Tri who need to save Link and Hyrule! We get together and discuss our reactions to the trailer, the fact that we finally get to play as Zelda, what we think of the echo system, how fantastic the toy art style looks, our appreciation for Grezzo, and how stoked we are that it's 99 days and counting away! From there, we flip over and talk Four Swords coming to NSO finally with online play!
    We're also talking about everything else shown off in the Nintendo Direct, from Perfect Dark to Mario & Luigi to Donkey Kong Country Returns to, of course, Metroid Prime 4: Beyond (if you want to hear Andy and the Omega guys' reaction to that trailer, check out their episode here!)

We belt out our top tens of pets we would want to have and pets that already exist in the Zelda series! After we have some fun, we get down to business and discuss the ten best bosses that you do not fight in a dungeon! While there is a lot of Tears of the Kingdom and Breath of the Wild as you might expect, we reach a little deeper and pull out some hidden gems for you to relive!

THE BEST ZELDA PODCAST OUT THERE!

This is the best podcast on the Zelda series that you’re gonna find! The hosts are funny, the topics are fun, and this show just ROCKS! If you’re gonna listen to one Zelda podcast, choose this one!

Only gets better

I found this podcast and listened to a couple of newer episodes. It was really good so I went back and started from the beginning. Man! Andy and Allison make this podcast. They’re so much better than the old hosts. I disagree on some of their points (TP is NOT ugly!) but they explain their reasoning so well. They also come across as genuinely good people. If I wasn’t poor, I’d subscribe to their patreon to get more episodes.
