The Zelda Cast Zelda Dungeon

We're back with part TWO of our Zelda-themed "Would You Rather?" Fan Q&A! On the docket today: Would we rather collect every Korok seed or ship part from Phantom Hourglass? Would we rather the Zelda movie be awful, or not made at all? Would we rather leave out the Triforce or Master Sword from the next Zelda game? Would we rather the Hover Boots return or the Iron Boots? Would we rather all future dungeons are Divine Beast style or have every game take place in Breath of the Wild's Hyrule? Would we rather Zelda VR or Metroid VR?
All this and so much more, PLUS some discussion about Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, The Silmarillion, and Summer Game Fest! Come hang out with us, and FYI - no stream next week!

We have a really fun episode of the show for you this week! We asked for your Zelda-themed "would you rather" questions, and you guys delivered so much that we had to split the episode into two parts! A couple of the questions we had fun with include: would you rather get a brand new Zelda right away and wait for the Switch 2 for ten years, or vice versa? Would you rather play Tri Force Heroes solo or 100% Hyrule Warriors? Would we rather all future Zelda games are open world, or traditional 3D titles? Would we have rather had a more fleshed out Sky or more fleshed out Depths in Tears o the Kingdom? All this, plus a ton more!
We're also giving our thoughts on the new Zelda LEGO, following up on our Definitive Ranking of the OG Legend of Zelda, and wishing everyone a happy Pride Month!

It's time to kick it old school with another entry into our Definitive Ranking series, this time, examining the game that started it all: The Legend of Zelda! We’re going through ten critical categories that make up the ingredients to a Zelda game – world, story, pacing, art style, dungeons, bosses/enemies, items, gameplay, extras, and music – and assigning them each a score to see how the original game stacks up against all of the legendary entries that came after it! Some of the scores will be no-brainers, while others might leave you scratching your head, so come along and play with us, and of course, be sure to share what you think!
All this, PLUS a little movie talk, our favorite NES titles and more! Come hang out with us!

We're back this week continuing the discussion around Tears of the Kingdom, except this time, we're comparing and contrasting it to three other direct sequels in the Zelda franchise: Majora's Mask, Phantom Hourglass, and A Link Between Worlds! We go over what makes a game a direct sequel in our eyes, how each game changed up the gameplay from its predecessors, if there was enough new content to make the sequel feel distinct, and so much more!
We're also covering the reaction to our Tears of the Kingdom anniversary episode, so come and hang out with us!

It's hard to believe, but it's been one year since the launch of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, so this week, we're reflecting back on the game and talking about how our thoughts or opinions have changed or been cemented now that the dust has settled. We discuss Tears' legacy as a sequel, as a standalone Zelda game, and where it ranks among our favorite Zelda games. Andy and Al both have strong opinions on the game, and they don't necessarily agree either, so get ready for a killer show!
All this, PLUS we touch on Nintendo's announcement of the Switch 2 coming this fiscal year, what that means for the rest of 2024 and 2025, and our thoughts and fears surrounding that. Come hang with us!

Unfortunately, Andy is out sick this week. So we thought we’d take it easy and discuss some of ZD’s latest Daily Debates! And joining Al in place of Andy is The Zelda Cast’s podcast producer extraordinaire, Adrielle! Here’s what’s up for discussion: What is the best final dungeon in the Zelda series? Is Adventure of Link really that bad? What is our favorite item in our personal Zelda collections? And also, what the heck are the snapper turtles saying in Majora’s Mask?
Absolutely riveting topics up for debate. Join us for those and so much more on this week’s episode of The Zelda Cast!
