As we reminiscence about The Legend of Zelda, and about all the things we’ve written about the series, I came across a post from five years ago that was part of the 35th anniversary.

Appreciating the Poultry of Zelda’s N64 Era
As we revisit old memories, and old posts, from down the years, I came across an account chronicling several unpleasant encounters I had with the chickens (AKA cuccos) inhabiting The Legend of Zelda games. To seasoned, Hylian veterans such as myself (and no doubt you, too, dear reader), it’s common knowledge that the chickens in…
The Forest Temple: A Charming and Only Slightly Haunted Manor at an Affordable Price
Back in 2016, I wrote a post about the top three creepiest dungeons in The Legend of Zelda. While my list is indeed a pretty accurate look at spooky dungeons spanning from A Link to the Past on the SNES through to Twilight Princess on the GameCube/Wii, I had overlooked one top contender…and now you’re…
I’ve Changed My Mind About Open-World Zelda Games
When I was perusing some old posts of mine, few stood out as sorely requiring a revisit than a review I wrote back in 2017 about Breath of the Wild. When the game first released, it was a momentous occasion for any Zelda fan. Hyrule was larger and grander than ever before, and we had…
40 Years of The Legend of Zelda: A Month of Nostalgia and Reminiscing

It’s time for our wildcard week, folks! While the rest of the month was dedicated to relationships, I thought I’d focus more on our surroundings for this week’s post. Because who doesn’t enjoy decorating their home for Christmas and getting it nice and festive in time for all your guests to arrive? So today, I’m…
Listmas 2024: The Duck’s Revised Christmas Guest List
Our last Listmas category before our wildcard week revolves around those characters we’d most want to spend the holidays with, whether it be due to our inkling that they’d be good gift-givers or just a lot of fun to be around. I actually wrote a similar post back in 2022 if you want to check…
Link Will Be Playable in The Legend Of Zelda: Echoes Of Wisdom
During last month’s Nintendo Direct, Nintendo surprised everyone by not only revealing a new top-town Zelda adventure, but one in which Zelda herself will be stepping into the main character role. This is the first time this has happened within in a Nintendo-developed Legend of Zelda game, and the company made sure to have Zelda…
Zelda Will Finally Be Playable in The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom
Nintendo just released a trailer for an upcoming Zelda game, The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, but this time, it stars the princess herself! The trailer opens with Link attempting to rescue Zelda from Ganon, only to be sucked into a mysterious rift, one of many that have opened up all around the kingdom. …
