Zelda week is over, bitch
I must sadly announce the end of Zelda Week here on Destructoid. In recent days, I have written a number of articles about The legend of Zelda in celebration of its 35th anniversary. When Nintendo announced a Direct last week, I was sure it would have a big explosion for the franchise, just like what it did with Super Mario. Unfortunately, all I received was confirmation Skyward Sword HD.
There are 364 days left for Nintendo to organize some kind of official celebration for The legend of Zelda, but for today, Destructoid has you covered with a summary of all the articles posted by our writers in the last week. Settle down because there are some great readings below.
- I asked Destructoid staff and the community to name their favorite boss fight from Zelda franchise. I didn’t realize there was such a great love for Stallord, but I’m 100% here for it.
- Zoey Handley, the writer formally known as Adzuken, shares her thoughts on the importance of Zelda in moving console games away from its arcade roots. Also, the batteries in her house last forever.
- Jonathan Holmes still loves The sword to the sky because what else would you expect from the guy who likes to stumble Coup. Seriously, The sword to the sky it’s amazing and hopefully Nintendo will make some necessary changes to the Switch remaster.
- As a counterpoint to Holmes’ article, a member of the TroyFullbuster community would like to know that I still hate The sword to the sky. I wish I could say I didn’t hate any games in this series, though Phantom hourglass there is, so …
- Music has been an important aspect of the series since its inception, and Zach Bennett details how Wild breath continues the legacy of sound established in ocarina of time. If you don’t think Wild breath it has a wonderful soundtrack, you should give it a second listen.
- Zelda II: Link’s Adventure it was commonly called “the hardest Zelda game “, and this year I managed to defeat him for the first time. But not without a little help. I guess I should start fighting now Major’s mask. Or The Oracle of the Ages. Or Tri Force Heroes, but I think I need two more people for that.
- He’s an old man, but a good one. A member of the Seymour community explores the genre in Wild breath.
- Chris Moyse explains why The legend of Zelda the animated series was one of the worst things that ever came out of DIC. The only way you could cheat one Zelda More cartoon is whether Nintendo licensed to Seth MacFarlane.
- Finally, the Destructoid community contributed their own stories The legend of Zelda, looking back at his best characters and moments and why this series is so important to so many people.
