ZI Podcast Ep. 047 - DLC, Darksiders, Virtual Console, Oh My!

Zelda's Percentages returns! The premise remains the same: we make a statement and then assign a percentage on the likelihood of that statement coming true. This week we answered your submitted statements! We cover everything from the Legend of Zelda movie box office predictions, the possibility of Nintendo DS / 3DS games on NSO, and how many new mainline game entries will we see on Nintendo Switch 2? All this plus a lengthy "discussion" on what constitutes an A-List vs B-List Hollywood actor. Come hang out with us!   Support The Zelda Cast on Patreon!

UPDATE: Sooooo let's try that again! Last week, we had a technical snafu for this episode, aka, I named the previous weeks file 379 by mistake and then re-uploaded it this week. The right audio has since been uploaded, but I know a lot of you had a hard time getting the right episode, so I decided to just re-upload all together! Sorry for the trouble folks - let's all agree to blame it on Corey! Thanks all! - Andy Earlier this week, Nintendo showcased their latest Partner Direct, and in it, we saw the latest trailer for Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment! While there wasn't a ton of info revealed, there was enough shown for us to sink our teeth into, including: who is the Gerudo sage, and could she be a familiar name to us? What or who is being built an the end of the trailer and could it be related to the Ancient Hero? What's up with Fi's theme playing at the end? These, plus many other questions, observations, and theories! All this, PLUS we go over the latest Nintendo financials and talk about what other games shown off in the Direct we're interested in!

Well, we didn't have a show last week because we were keeping a big secret - Andy was able to get a last minute trip booked to the 2025 Zelda Dungeon Marathon, which was an incredible success, raising nearly $12K for No Kid Hungry! This also meant that Andy and Al got to podcast together in person, and we decided that we wanted to let our friends and fellow attendee's get in on the action! We'll hear from Cal, Adrielle, Katherine, Sean, Ashtyn, Palimer, and so many more as we discuss an incredible week of gaming, charity, friendship, and so much more! PLUS, our thoughts on the new Zelda movie casting - more to come on that next week! Be well everyone!   Support The Zelda Cast on Patreon!
