GameFAQs is holding a Game of the Decade poll, covering 2000-2009. Of course we’re posting about it because there is a Zelda game on the poll! There have been multiple polls to eliminate certain games tournament style, and in fact two Zelda games have been in the competition: Twilight Princess and Majora’s Mask. Twilight Princess [...]

This arrangement was done by one of our fans who is happy to grace us in the forums: Dragonos. Linebeck's Theme is widely considered one of the best musical pieces in Phantom Hourglass, and I have rarely seen good remixes of the song anywhere on the net. That is until now. While it doesn't stray too far from the norm, it sticks with what works and the remix has it's own flare. If you have your own musical, artistic, or otherwise comedic talents you wish to show off, remember you can send us an email about it using our contact form, or simply email us at tips@zeldainformer.com...

Ok fine, maybe it’s not a useable Wii controller… but this cookie in the shape of the Wiimote is both both edible and delicious! Thank you to the guys over at Not So Humble Pie for this, and head on over there for a recipe to make not just an edible Wii cookie, but an [...]

Like the entire stable of classic games that Miyamoto has produced, the latest Zelda title will be a Nintendo exclusive, a game that exerts a commercial pull so powerful that people will buy consoles especially to play it. At the time of our meeting, the game is "over half complete". "What we are focused on is creating gameplay mechanics so the gameplay experience feels very dense. In fact, the overall experience is going to feel more dense. We hope that people will want to go back and replay the game once they finish it". We've been waiting ages for any sort of news on Skyward Sword, and hidden within an interview we already posted was some juicy information. We know the game is over half completed now, and that the overall experience they are aiming for is dense. So dense that we want to immediately go back and replay it. While I am unsure what meaning of dense they are aiming for, one thing is for certain: They are aiming for this to be one of the most complete Zelda games we have ever played, with story, controls, and environments being so engaging that we just don't want to...

Miyamoto has come out and said that Skyward Sword is about halfway to being fully completed; and that the original projected time of release, which was early 2011, doesn’t seem like it will be met. Rather than it being early 2011, the estimated release is simply ’2011′, but I would estimate that you can expect [...]

Silent Hero: A Fan Novel Based on Nintendo’s Legend of Zelda by Christine E Schulze is… well… the title does a good job of describing the book. The book isn’t professionally published, and it’s free for download in a number of places. The news garnering release was here in Barnes and Noble’s Nook Book collection [...]

Nigel Kendall of Pocket-Lint brings us an interview with our beloved Shigeru Miyamoto. According to Miyamoto, Nintendo's motion control capabilities are still going strong. Here, he states: "Of course, I am happy that motion is fashionable now. But when we make games, we are not trying to produce trendy products. It needs to be an experience that's meaningful, and the motion control needs to add something. So our new Zelda game takes motion control and adds something to the game to make you feel like you're part of the adventure. I think our rivals need to find what it is they have to offer that's new." Sure, Sony and Microsoft may have "technically superior" products, but Miyamoto doesn't even break a sweat. To him, games are all about how one can submerge into the experience. Nintendo is constantly looking for new, cutting-edge features, not for being "trendy", but for that very experience. Miyamoto is a man who truly loves his video games for that reason and wants to share that love with us through all his hard work on Skyward Sword. Also, with the amazing new Nintendo 3DS around the corner, gamers are also met with a profound new...
