The Legend of Zelda

The Legend of Zelda

It's been forty years since The Legend of Zelda arrived on the Famicom Disk System, and with the Ocarina of Time remake landing on Switch 2 in November, we're going back to where it started. Miyamoto's childhood caves, the dungeon crawler that grew an overworld, Koji Kondo rewriting the title theme overnight because of a copyright problem, and the phone line Nintendo had to staff because nobody could work out where to go. Plus a small, polite disagreement with the Guinness Book of World Records. Join us, Player One — it's dangerous to go alone.
