On this more somber (and sleepy) episode of the ZeldaInformer Podcast, we get a lesson from GameXplain’s Derrick on the legacy of Satoru Iwata, as well as many other topics. The discussions are on the quieter end, but it was a very informative and thought provoking episode on the idea of a Gaming Legacy. Your cast members for this week are your host Adam (Really wants to be a Cucco for some reason), Chris (Bringing positive vibes Directly…To You), and special guest Derrick (Spends most of the time correcting our idiot of a host). Thank you to everyone who sent in fan topics, emails, theme song submissions, and general words of kindness. If you have anything you'd like us to see, feel free to send it over to ZeldaInformerPodcast@gmail.com And as always, if you can, please subscribe to us on iTunes or Podbean and rate us. Anything helps, so thank you in advance!

This week’s ZI Podcast team discusses the mysterious Nintendo Playstation prototype, re-visits the Link is Dead theory, and learns some of the things you might need to know to be successful on YouTube. Celebrated video game theorist MattPat from Game Theory is our featured guest this week, and he does his best to bring out the theorist in all of us.  Your cast for this week is Adam, your host as always (but today you can call him “That guy who can’t stop sidetracking”); Jake, the Majora man himself; Chris, our resident Kingdom Hearts fan and optimist; and our special guest for this week, Matthew Patrick of Game Theory.  Thanks to those of you who emailed us your topics, questions, theme cover art (and the one guy who sent us a picture of his pinky, which we apparently asked for?). If you have any of your own topics, theme song ideas, or cover art that you’d like to be a part of the show, feel free to email all of that to us at ZeldaInformerPodcast@gmail.com Thanks again for tuning in and we hope you enjoy the show!

This week, we're joined by Vinny from VineSauce, as we tackle some fan topics and revisit an often one-sided argument. With a fun conversation about companions vs guides in Zelda, a plethora of bad Sonic impersonations, and fond memories of our childhoods, this episode of the podcast is one worth checking out. Your cast for this week is Adam (Host and standing judge), Caleb (Lawyer by day, Lover by night. For Metroid, he's here to fight), Sarah (The prosecution from the middle of an Oreo), and special guest Vinesauce Vinny (Ace Attorney for Zelda 2 and a self titled Meme Maker).  Thank you to everyone who sent in fan topics, emails, theme song submissions, and general words of kindness. If you have anything you'd like us to see, feel free to send it over to ZeldaInformerPodcast@gmail.com.  Same intro as always (huge thanks to Brandon and Co. for that), and this week's cover art is a piece I quickly put together of Link (yes, I made her a girl) dealing with some glitches of her own. Hope you enjoy the episode; it was a really fun time to record! And as always, if you can, please subscribe to us on iTunes or Podbean and rate us.Anything helps, so thank you in advance!

Totem Time! This week, our weekly podcast takes a look at the recent interviews regarding ​Tri Force Heroes and its lore, as well as some exciting Nintendo demos that were shown off during E3 2015. With tons of laughs and a hearty helping of fan topics, don't be the purple link (too soon?) and miss out on this week's charming episode of the ZI Podcast! Your cast this week is Adam, our host and green link (for his courageous stupidity); Caleb, the lovably cynical red link (don't mention blast ball to him, whatever you do!); Al, our incredibly wise blue link (he wrote an editorial on Tri Force Heroes, you know); and last but not least, Zion, our very own purple link (like ridley, he's purple and ignored by Nintendo).  Thank you to everyone who submitted fan topics and incredibly sweet words of endearment to our email. A huge shoutout to Brandon and Co. for their awesome theme song, as well as Jeesh for the Hero of Time Remix that we're so fond of.  If you have any of your own fan topics, theme song submissions, cover art or even fan fiction, please send that to us at ZeldaInformerPodcast@gmail.com. Follow Adam and Caleb on twitter for more humor and behind the scenes stuff!

This week on the ZI Podcast, we tackle the amazingly exciting E3 2015 expo, filled with tons of laughter, tears, anger, and confusion. Since this is a special episode, we decided to do it differently than usual and record it in two parts: One online, and the other with our team that was on the show floor the entire three days. This week's podcast features, for the in person section (part 1): Adam, your host as always; Jeff, the man with the plan; Zion, the man with the cam; and Rodney, the man...with...something (I ran out of rhymes). Your online cast features: Caleb, your temporary host (doing a pretty solid job, might I add); Jake (He's very butt hurt this week, but we still love him); Chris, the optimist (If I had a nickel for every time he cursed...); and Leon (he sounds like solid snake).  As usual you can download this week's podcast in the links above, and subscribe to us on podbean or iTunes.  Got fan art, theme songs, or topics? Make sure to send them our way at zeldainformerpodcast@gmail.com. We're a bit back-logged on topics (we'll be going covering them starting next week), but we're always happy to hear from you all and answer as many questions as we can!
