  • Episode 264 - The Final Tears of the Kingdom Fan Q&A Before Launch

    01/05/2023 Duração: 01h21min

    We are now less than TWO WEEKS away from Tears of the Kingdom, and to get us in the mood, Andy is joined by Gooey Fame to answer YOUR Zelda questions! On the docket this episode: Do we think Tears of the Kingdom will be worth the $70 price tag? Was Nintendo right by not showing us anything for so long? What are our thoughts on Tulin? Do we think the original runes from Breath of the Wild are coming back? Is there a specific enemy we'd love to see come back that hasn't been shown already? What are our thoughts on going in blind to a game versus pouring over all the content released? How do we want Koroks to be utilized in this game? How do we like our voice acting in Zelda games? All this, PLUS we take a moment to shout out Andy's cat Zora on her 10th birthday (

  • Episode 263 - Reflecting on the Buildup For Tears of the Kingdom

    24/04/2023 Duração: 01h08min

    Alasyn is away for the next couple weeks, so for this episode, Andy orchestrated an Omega Metroid takeover! Omega Metroid Podcasts' Dakota Lasky and Community Manager Lillith join the show today to talk some Zelda in general and Tears of the Kingdom specifically. We discuss how the two of them became Zelda fans, which games are their favorites and why, which Zelda games they're not in love with, and then transition over to Tears of the Kingdom and ask if the latest trailer finally sold them, thoughts on the voice acting, if time travel would improve the experience, how the main theme compares to others before it, and whether or not it's possible Zelda could still be playable in any way. Come hear about Tears of the Kingdom through a couple Metroid fans' perspective, and don't forget to check out OmegaMetroid.com!   Follow The Zelda Cast!

  • Episode 262 - Ganondorf Returns in the Final Tears of the Kingdom Trailer! Our Thoughts and Analysis!

    15/04/2023 Duração: 01h22min

    WOW! THAT'S what we've been waiting for! In case you've been living under a rock, Nintendo released the third and final trailer for Tears of the Kingdom and it was by far the most exciting trailer shown so far! This week, the gang break down the trailer frame by frame, discussing where (or when) Zelda could have gotten off to, who the mysterious woman with light in her hands could be, the re-imagining of Gleeok and other bosses, if the Zonai in the trailer is the same one from the mural, how sky islands and caves might be connected, some of the new gameplay shots, and of course, THE RETURN OF THE KING OF EVIL, Mr. Hydrated Ganondorf himself! THIS was the trailer that finally did it, and we can barely contain our excitement! Come hang out with us as we break this trailer down!   Follow The Zelda Cast!

  • Episode 261 - Ranking Every Shrine Quest in Breath of the Wild (Part 1)

    10/04/2023 Duração: 01h11min

    With Tears of the Kingdom so close we can almost touch it, we thought it would be a great time to reflect back on Breath of the Wild and break down one of the most crucial elements of the game: Shrine Quests! We're ranking each and every single Shrine Quest, although there's no way we could have fit it all into one episode, so we're giving you PART ONE this week! We discuss what we like in our Shrine Quests, puzzles versus story and they play into each other, the fantastic Eventide Island get away, and tackle 23 of 42 Shrine Quests! We'll have the full breakdown of our list next week, so be sure to check out Part Two! All this, PLUS we give our early thoughts on the Super Mario Bros. Movie and where Nintendo might go next in its cinematic endeavours!   Follow The Zelda Cast!

    03/04/2023 Duração: 01h18min

    We finally got a new look at some of the gameplay of Tears of the Kingdom this past week, and we have A LOT to say! Come hear our thoughts on Link's new abilities, what possibilities Fuse and Ultrahand present, our thoughts on the Zonai being more-or-less confirmed, what we noticed in terms of Easter eggs in the trailer, the Skyward Sword influences and new Construct enemies, how this game can make returning to the same world enticing again, and the million dollar question: was this enough to really give Tears of the Kingdom its own identity beyond just "more Breath of the Wild"? Come hang out with us and get pumped as we Fuse, Ascend, Recall, and ULTRAHAND our way through this Ultra episode!   Follow The Zelda Cast!

    27/03/2023 Duração: 01h08min

    It's another slow week of Zelda news - which is crazy, considering Tears of the Kingdom is 6 weeks away - so to pass the time, we asked YOU for your Zelda-themed "Would You Rather" questions, and you guys delivered big time! On the docket: would we rather wait longer for a new 3D game or have more new 2D games? Would we rather have non-Zelda costumes in future games or no Zelda representation in Smash Bros.? Would we rather Zelda music on Youtube or Zelda ports on the Switch? Would we rather Monk Maz Koshia or Tingle win a Zelda Dungeon contest? We even have a Tim Horton's themed question! All this, PLUS a plethora of different questions, a podcast guest appearance tease, and some Omega Metroid news!   Follow The Zelda Cast!

    20/03/2023 Duração: 01h16min

    After taking a break from the game last week, the Cast are back to finish off their discussion on The Minish Cap! This week, we dive into the numerous charming dungeons in the game, expand on our "less is more" mantra, talk about the bosses and items, and count just how many Darknuts you actually fight in Dark Hyrule Castle! We don't see the dungeons eye to eye, so some negotiating might be in order! All this, PLUS we're throwing some of the latest Zelda news at you, talking about Alasyn's Breath of the Wild vs Tears of the Kingdom thread, thoughts on The Last of Us, and gearing up for NEXT WEEK, where you can ask us a Zelda-themed 'Would You Rather' question!

  • Episode 255 - Super Nintendo World First Impressions

    28/02/2023 Duração: 01h33min

    Al has taken over the show, and while we continue to wait for more Zelda news, we thought it would be fun to talk about something a little different this week. February has been a big month for Nintendo fans, and that included the grand opening of the highly anticipated Nintendo-themed amusement park, Super Nintendo World! A few members of the ZD staff were able to visit the park this past week, so we wanted to bring a couple of them onto the show and hear their thoughts on the experience while it was still fresh in their minds. How was the overall atmosphere and immersion of the park? What about the rides? Were there any notable Easter Eggs? Come listen as Rod Lloyd and Alex Weber answer all these questions and more!   Follow The Zelda Cast!

  • Episode 252 - Tears of the Kingdom Highlights What Might Have Been Nintendo’s Greatest Direct!

    09/02/2023 Duração: 59min

    Wow. Wowowow. THAT, my friends, was a Nintendo Direct for the ages. Despite Nintendo arguably holding back yet again on Tears of the Kingdom, there was no doubt that the trailer we saw for the game was by far the meatiest one yet. Add in the Game Boy and Game Boy Advance NSO news, with The Minish Cap and Link's Awakening DX being playable RIGHT NOW with the Oracles not far behind it, and there was more Zelda news in this 40 minutes than there has been in seemingly years! Add in Metroid Prime Remastered, Pikmin 4, and more games, and this might have been the greatest Nintendo Direct ever! If you missed Andy and Al's reactions and thoughts live, come relive them now, and make sure to hang with us this weekend as we break down all the trailers frame by frame!   Follow The Zelda Cast!

  • Episode 251 - What Can Tears of the Kingdom Learn From Elden Ring and Horizon Zero Dawn?

    06/02/2023 Duração: 01h20min

    Open world games have come a long way in the last few years, and with Tears of the Kingdom approaching, the Cast figured it was a good time to play some contemporary titles to see what the upcoming Zelda game might learn from those titles. Joined by Rod Lloyd for this episode, the gang discuss Elden Ring and Horizon Zero Dawn and lay out what they like about those games, what they dislike, and what they would like to see - or NOT see - applied from those games to Tears of the Kingdom! Come hang out and weigh in on some of the hot takes thrown out about Soulsborne games, whether Horizon's story is one of the best ever, and if Andy should keep playing Elden Ring or not!   Follow The Zelda Cast!
