The Zelda Cast

It's almost here! We are now only a few days away from the release of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake! Since this is our last episode before the game's release, we're responding to your viewer-submitted final questions and hopes for the Ocarina of Time Remake! Questions like: How do we feel about the voice acting? Do we think that the Ice Arrows will be altered in any way? Do we think that this remake will include Hero Mode / Master Quest? Should the boss fights be redesigned? Do we think that there will be more activities / side content to do with Epona? And more!

All this, PLUS! The online shopping woes and shenanigans surrounding the Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary Switch 2 console and Alasyn's observations during her recent play-through of the original Ocarina of Time! Come hang out with us!

Has it been twenty years already?! Well, believe it or not, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is about to turn 20! In celebration, Andy and Al are jumping right in to their memories with the game both at release and over the years, including Twilight Princess' distinguished presence at the yearly Zelda Dungeon Marathon!

When covering a game as a whole we typically follow a structured style, as seen most often in our "Definitive Ranking" episodes. But this week we're simply kicking back and letting the memories flow! To this day, there's still so much to say about Twilight Princess! Let us know what you think! After twenty years, how do you feel about Twilight Princess?

All this, PLUS! A shout out to the newly released synthwave album, OcarinaWave by RETROKID! Come hang out with us!

We're back again this week with another round of everyone's favorite game show in this business, Zelda's Percentages! As always, we'll be making a statement and then weighing in on how likely we think that statement will come true. Alasyn is out this week, and so Andy and Nicole will be discussing the possibilities on topics like: Will the Ocarina of Time remake sell more than 15 million copies? Will we see a Zelda movie trailer by the end of either October or November? Will the Ocarina of Time remake be nominated for "Game of The Year" at the next Game Awards? Will Twilight Princess arrive on Gamecube NSO as a part of the Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary Celebration? And will Master Quest be released as paid DLC for the Ocarina of Time remake?

All this, PLUS! Nicole helps us bookend our Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland coverage by sharing what she thought about the odd Zelda spinoff! Come hang out with us!

What a week that was! Not only did we get a dedicated Zelda Direct, the very next day Nintendo showcased another full Direct showcase! There was a lot to see and so this week we're diving right in, going title by title, through Nintendo's Sept 9th Direct Presentation! It seemed like there was something for everyone between: Starfox's free update, Professor Layton, Metroid Ravenous, Switch Sports Resort, Final Fantasy VII Revelation, Age of Calamity: Definitive Edition, and so much more!

In a further follow-up to the Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary Direct, we're also reacting to some recent Zelda Dungeon Daily Debates like: What was missing from the Zelda Direct? Are we happy that the Legend of Zelda movie does not have a sub-title? And did Nintendo show too much footage of the Ocarina of Time remake during the Zelda Direct?

All this, PLUS! Over on Zelda Dungeon's YouTube page, you can catch the first episode of a new series: The Legend of Zelda Cartoon Script - Live Table Read!

As of now there is little that we know about the upcoming Ocarina of Time remake. The reveal trailer gave us just a glimpse that the game exists and left the rest to our imagination, or rather... prediction! This week, we're joined by Adrielle as we break down and weigh in on Evan Hahn's latest article in which he puts the Zelda Dungeon Writing Team's collective "wisdom of the crowd" to the test!

For this article, thirty-two Zelda Dungeon staff members were surveyed and asked to make predictions regarding various aspects of the Ocarina of Time remake like: When will we see the next trailer? What will the release date be? Will the Ocarina of Time remake be open world? Which existing dungeon will see the biggest overhaul? Will the remake have any new dungeons? And more!

All this, PLUS we are now only two weeks away from the 2026 Zelda Dungeon Marathon! And this year, Zelda Dungeon's merch store has returned! Come check it out here!

Back in February, we reviewed Zelda Dungeon's Top 40 Moments in the Zelda Series list. Spanning two whole episodes, we went through each entry and gave our thoughts on the final results from what had been a heated and arduous decision process! Three months later, Zelda Dungeon released their "Even More Top Moments" list! This week we're reviewing that very list, covering the Zelda moments that hadn't quite made the initial top 40 cut but still deserved to be recognized!

All this, PLUS our thoughts on Sony removing purchased movies from user libraries and announcing their 2028 discontinuation of physical games. Come hang out!

Andy returns this week, as we catch up on all the reaction surrounding Ocarina of Time Remake. We are answering fan questions, including: what music are we looking forward to hearing? Are there any side characters we want to see more of? What do we think of Nintendo's photorealistic graphics? Was this remake done with intentions to tie into the Zelda movie? How will combat work in the game? Are fans expecting too much change in the remake?

All this and more. Plus, announcing a livestream July 18th playing Ocarina of Time Master Quest in tribute to our beautiful Zora the cat <3
