Podcasts about hyrule

We play Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment through Chapter 3 and 4. Along the way, we discuss the homogeneity of combat strategy, the extreme politeness between characters, and the violence of Rauru's Hyrule.

Description This week we celebrate the 40th anniversary of one of the most legendary video games of all time, The Legend of Zelda, and explore how it changed gaming forever. Grab your wooden sword and let's head north. From dungeon bosses to Dodongo smoke signals, we break down the history, music, trivia, and lasting impact of Nintendo's groundbreaking adventure.   News A new trailer for The Mandalorian & Grogu has dropped, teasing familiar characters and confirming a theatrical release on May 22, 2026.   DinoLand U.S.A. at Disney's Animal Kingdom is being reimagined into Tropical Americas, including an Indiana Jones retheme of the Dinosaur ride and an interactive Encanto attraction.   A new Star Wars Galactic Racer game is coming in 2026 for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, joining the expanding Star Wars gaming universe.   We say farewell to legendary actor Robert Duvall, whose career spanned classics like The Godfather and Apocalypse Now.   Check out our TeePublic store for some enjoyable swag and all the latest fashion trends What we're Enjoying Jay has been diving into Kingdom Rush 5: Alliance on iPad, a tower defense game bursting with cartoon charm and clever pop culture easter eggs. Its lighthearted tone and strategic depth make it easy to pick up but tough to master. Shua has been moved by Sentimental Value, an Academy Award–nominated drama starring Renate Reinsve, Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas, Stellan Skarsgard, and Elle Fanning. This emotional story of estranged family members reconnecting delivers powerful performances and a heartfelt punch.     Sci-Fi Saturdays -  This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay shines a spotlight on Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, directed by Luc Besson. Though considered a box office disappointment, Jay found plenty to love in its ambitious world-building, visual spectacle, and pulpy sci-fi adventure energy. Read his article on RetroZap.com. And make sure to play around with the interactive map on MCULocationScout.com. Plus, you can tune in to SHIELD: Case Files where Jay and Shua talk about great stuff in the MCU.   Enjoy Video Games!  This week we journey back to 1986 and celebrate the revolutionary release of The Legend of Zelda, created by Shigeru Miyamoto. Inspired by childhood exploration, fantasy literature, and a desire to let players discover secrets on their own, Zelda dropped players into Hyrule with no hand-holding and no instructions beyond a wooden sword and courage.   We relive dungeon bosses, secret bombable walls, cryptic old men, and the unforgettable music composed by Koji Kondo. From Aquamentus to Ganon, from Second Quest surprises to Silver Arrow victories, we explore why this game still resonates four decades later, and why sometimes the best adventures are the ones where nobody tells you what to do.   Have you played through all of The Legend of Zelda? Let us know! First person that emails me with the subject line, "You have acquired a sword!" will get a special mention on the show.  Let us know. Come talk to us in the Discord channel or send us an email to EnjoyStuff@RetroZap.com 

Tårta och bubbel på lördag, för då fyller Zelda medelålders! 40 år har gått sedan Link tog första stegen ut i Hyrule. Fragzone-fredag firar med prat om de bästa spelen, de mest minnesvärda ögonblicken och den där CD-I-avstickaren som vi inte lär få en remake på.

The Legend of Zelda was created in the 1980s by Japanese game designer Shigeru Miyamoto. He was inspired by his childhood adventures exploring forests, caves, and fields near his home. He wanted players to feel curious and brave as they explored a magical world full of puzzles and secrets. The story follows a hero named Link, who goes on quests to save Princess Zelda and protect the land of Hyrule.

In honour of "The Legend of Zelda" and it's 40th Anniversary! We bring you an episodic homebrew campaign about several Hero of Courage nepo babies "Sliders-ing" across the inbetween periods of Hyrule Historia and it's various Eras! The Legend of Zelda: Links in the Chain Throughout the weaving history of Hyrule, many mysterious and powerful artifacts appear and circulate among Legend. One such item is the Chain of Eras, but it shall be found, not by a singular hero of courage during a time of great cause, as is so often the case. No, it shall come to pass to different sons of the Hero, during times between Legends. Once taken up, it shall bring them together for reasons yet unknown, across time and destiny. They shall be as Links in the Chain. Cast: GM Chris - Minervo (Pirate Hero of Brine from the Era of Wind) Aaron - Nox (Twili Hero of Ryme from the Era of Twilight) Dave -  Severn (Zora Hero of Pine from the Era of the Wild)   Session 1: Arbiter's Shadow Part 1 3 sons of the Hero of Courage, across various Eras in the history of Hyrule, have been shunted together and cast out to the seas of time and destiny for a purpose unknown by a chain like artifact. The place they find themselves currently is bright and dusty, yet shadowed by twilight. What will they do? Where will they go from here? Time will tell.   Musical Credits: "Myst on the Moor" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

️ En este especial de GAMELX damos el pistoletazo de salida a nuestro evento conmemorativo por el 40º aniversario de The Legend of Zelda. A lo largo de 2026 iremos repasando la mayoría de entregas principales de la saga, celebrando su legado y todo lo que ha significado para la historia del videojuego. En este primer episodio viajamos a los orígenes con las dos entregas de NES: The Legend of Zelda (1986) y Zelda II: The Adventure of Link (1987). Hablamos de cómo nació Hyrule, de la Trifuerza y los personajes fundacionales, del diseño revolucionario basado en exploración y secretos, de la arriesgada ruptura de la secuela, de su recepción y cifras de ventas… y de anécdotas míticas como la de Koji Kondo, que tuvo que componer a contrarreloj una de las melodías más icónicas de la saga. Nota: En este evento dejaremos fuera Skyward Sword (ya tuvo programa dedicado) y los Zelda multijugador, ya que no son el foco de este recorrido. ⚔️ ¿Cuál fue vuestro primer Zelda? ¿Y el que más os marcó? Os leemos en comentarios. Han participado: Gerard "Gepese" (@metalgerap) Carlos Torres "Rode" (@rodeatope) Sergi Gurriz (@Waylis10) La voz del programa: Henar Hernández (@HenarHAsensio)

Kan Age of Imprisonment løfte den narrative arv fra Zelda?Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment markerer et nyt skift i Warriors-fortolkningen af Zelda-universet. Age of Calamity byggede på en non-canon fortælling, men her får vi en canon historie som endelig viser hvad Zelda foretog sig under sin tidsrejse tilbage til skabelsen af Hyrule.Spillet blander Musou-action med enorme slagmarker, ikoniske steder og frontlinjer der konstant flytter sig, mens militære operationer langsomt afdækker mere af den tidlige konflikt mod Ganondorf. Det rejser spørgsmålet om Age of Imprisonment kan bære den narrative vægt Zelda-serien normalt skal løfte. Og om Musou hack-and-slash stadig har en plads i et gaminglandskab der skifter hurtigere end nogensinde før.Alt det skal vi finde svar på, når vi anmelder Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment.I denne episode deltager Felix Sanchez, Janus Hasseriis, Anne Elsberg og Daniel Møgelhøj.Tusind tak fordi du lytter med.

We've reached the end of 2025 and a full year of monthly installments of The Zelda Universe Podcast. Thanks to all of you for hearing our voices as we discuss these memorable aspects of Hyrule and this wonderful franchise. In this month's installment, Connor, Cayden, and Jared take a look at both characters and enemies that have endured through the ages, then share their thoughts about the challenges Zelda has enduring through those ages. In our feature of the month, Jared shares his appreciation for the minimalist approach the franchise has taken towards voice acting, and the team look towards the voice Link has yet to use.

Bonus Episode #58 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. Today on the show, Bryan steps into the ancient past of Hyrule in Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment. After the mystery surrounding the Imprisoning War, Nintendo and Koei Tecmo finally reveal the canonical story of Demon King Ganondorf's first rise to power. In this comprehensive review, we explore how developer Koei Tecmo's AAA Games Studio has crafted the most refined Hyrule Warriors experience yet, taking players through Princess Zelda's time-displaced journey alongside King Rauru, Queen Sonia, and the legendary Sages who united to save the newly founded kingdom of Hyrule. This episode features an extensive breakdown of the game's stunning soundtrack, composed by the acclaimed MONACA collective (Keiichi Okabe, Ryuichi Takada, Kuniyuki Takahashi, Oliver Good, Keita Inoue, and Taichi Joraku), the same talented team behind NieR: Automata and Stellar Blade. We also cover the game's musou-style combat with Sync Strikes and Zonai Devices, the diverse roster of 19 playable characters, expansive side content, technical performance on the Nintendo Switch 2, and why this canonical Warriors entry stands as Bryan's favorite musou game to date.

#craftbeer #zelda #blops7 HEY! LISTEN! Zelda is finally coming to the big screen and we have a handful of stills from the upcoming live-action film --- and have plenty of thoughts. Will it do Hyrule right? Only time will tell. However, speaking of movies, the social media app for movie nerds is officially debuting an online rental service. And ending on video games, we take a look at the state of the slug match between Call of Duty Black Ops 7 vs. Battlefield 6, plus Black Ops's controversial use of AI. Cheers!

Welcome to Episode 147 of Nintendo Therapy, your weekly dive into Nintendo news, rumors, and everything happening across the worlds of Hyrule, the Mushroom Kingdom, and beyond. This week we kick things off with the big story: Nintendo finally released official photos of the live-action Zelda movie, and reactions are all over the place. Kevin talks through why Zelda is such a tough series to adapt into a film in the first place — from its puzzle-driven structure to its constantly shifting art styles — and why live-action may box the franchise into something it was never meant to be. We also get into the big questions: Will Link talk? Will the movie rely on Marvel-style climaxes? And can any adaptation really capture exploration and discovery the way the games do?Harrison shares his first impressions as well, including why he's hopeful but cautious, how the film can stand out in a crowded fantasy landscape, and why practical effects would've made a huge difference. We wrap up our Zelda talk with thoughts on how Nintendo Studios is positioning itself, what the future might hold, and whether the franchise is headed toward TV rather than film.From there, we jump into our weekly game segment, “Guess Which Year This Black Friday Deal Is From?”, where we revisit wild Wii doorbusters, classic 3DS bundles, and the nostalgic chaos of early Switch holiday ads. That leads straight into our massive Black Friday 2025 Nintendo deals roundup, covering the best Switch 2 discounts, surprisingly deep price drops on Switch 1 titles, standout eShop specials, and collector-friendly physical releases. We highlight the biggest bargains, the strangest markdowns, and which deals are likely to get even better over the holiday weekend.We also take a closer look at the unusual release schedule for late 2025 and early 2026. With a big 6–8 week gap after December 11th, we talk about why Nintendo might be holding back, what shadow-drops or remasters could fill the space, and what to expect from the almost-certain January Nintendo Direct. From potential Zelda remasters and Xenoblade ports to Switch 2 upgrade patches for major first-party games, there are a lot of possibilities for how Nintendo might keep momentum going into the new year.This episode also features our spotlight section covering two standout Genesis titles: Vectorman and Pulseman. We dig into why Vectorman still looks so good today, how Sega pulled off its “vector piece” animation tricks, and why its late-era Genesis style has aged into something retro-cool. Then we jump to Game Freak's electric platformer Pulseman — a game released in the U.S. only through the Sega Channel — and explore its fast movement, anime-influenced identity, experimental mechanics, and the early design DNA that eventually carried over into Pokémon.We wrap up with some final thoughts on the Zelda movie and a look at the surprise shadow-drop of Tomb Raider 2013 on the eShop, which sparks a conversation about what other remasters might be quietly waiting in the wings.Nintendo Therapy is part of the Sidepanel Network, and you can also catch Harrison's weekly show on Harrison Talks Pod. Thanks for hanging out with us — and feel free to drop your Zelda movie hopes, fears, or jokes in the comments.

Then, we dive deep into Metal Gear Solid Delta's Fox Hunt online multiplayer, which has proven to be both interesting and fun, but does come with a few complaints. The good games just keep rolling out! Check out the show on BlueSky @MarkersOnTheMap.

With the release of Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment on the not so distant horizon, we've opened the floor once more to your submitted questions! This week we chimed in on questions like: Which regions of Hyrule are we most excited to see represented in Age of Imprisonment?

We're joined by Legend of Zelda archivist Melora Hart (History of Hyrule) this week to discuss the importance of games media preservation. For over 20 years, Melora has been painstakingly scanning and preserving both official and unofficial art of the Zelda franchise. We go into the ways she helps keep video game history alive. We also cover all the Nintendo and gaming news such as the Kirby Air Riders Direct, Gamescom 2025, Nintendo Direct rumors, Sony raising the price of the PS5 and much more. As always, we close with the games we've been playing.

In the original Zelda game, Link can earn a new sword, the white sword, once he has expanded his health to five hearts. Once Link has twelve hearts, he is capable of wielding the most powerful sword in the game, the magical sword. In much the same way, as we adventure in our jobs, parenting, relationships, and all facets of life, we should be leveling up. We should be improving our skills, learning better methods, finding lessons in defeat, making notes for future battles, and investing in tools which will help us reach our ultimate goals.

Welcome back to Nintendo Therapy, the podcast where we dive into the latest Nintendo news, rumors, and of course, celebrate all things Big N!This week, Kevin kicks things off with a look at Chibi-Robo, now available on NSO—a quirky, heartfelt adventure about a tiny household robot who makes people happy by cleaning, problem-solving, and exploring the world from a miniature perspective.Harrison jumps in to share his thoughts on Drag X Drive, a unique $20 release that Nintendo spotlighted despite its unconventional design. Is it a proof-of-concept game that hints at a brighter future for inclusive character representation, or just a flat experiment?We also shell out some time for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown and the wild state of the TMNT franchise. From Shredder's Revenge to Mutants Unleashed, it feels like the Turtles are everywhere—does this variety signal growth, or a lack of focus?Then it's back to Hyrule for our Spotlight Game of the Week: Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. Long considered the “black sheep” of the series, we unpack its bold ideas, cult following, and ask: would a modern remake finally give it the respect it deserves?All that and more!
