Hello, ZE viewers. In the mood for some music? Why not sit back and enjoy some from Zelda Eternity user Berlioz? Currently on this user’s YouTube channel, you can find several rearrangements of Zelda music, including one of the Deku Palace theme from Majora’s Mask (which you can listen to below).
In addition to this, on our community forums, this user is proposing the idea of an opera inspired by Majora’s Mask. The scheme is indeed interesting, so I would recommend at least giving it a read, and if you feel the need, to give feedback.
And without further ado, I present to you Berlioz’s reorchestration of the Majora’s Mask Deku Palace theme!
The Zelda 25th anniversary was in February, right? Well, like I’ve told you before in a news post, Miyamoto is apparently planning a way for everybody to “celebrate together”. A guy over at Zelda Informer has thought of this, and so have I.
Our friends over at Zelda Informer saw some downtime last week due to some conflicts and such that I don’t want to get into. Anyway, the site is back up with a few new articles just to prove that they weren’t doing nothing during their downtime.
“Back to Basics” with Skyward Sword – The Game World from what I tell is starting a series of articles that have to do with going back to the basics of the Zelda series and what Nintendo could do to see some of those basic elements from older games like the original few. In this article, the writer talks about aspects from the demo area and comparing them to such areas in Ocarina of Time, discussing the overall design of the area as well as bringing up a few quotes from Aonuma, Iwata and Miyamoto about what they’ve learned from the game world in Twilight Princess.
Australia’s Influence on Zelda talks about a couple things from Australian culture that have made an appearance in the Zelda series. To put it simple, it talks about the Boomerang and Ricky the Kangaroo from Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages. The last article, Letting go of Childhood, talks about a life lesson that everybody has to go through one day. Being Ocarina of Time-focused, this article goes into detail about Link’s life as a child living with the Kokiri and leaving close friends onto the stages of being an adult with having so much responsibility.
Well, it’s nice to see that Zelda Informer is back in action and I’m hoping they won’t experience more downtime anytime soon.
So why do you think I’m using a word like that as a title? That’s because this article is one of the best ones I’ve read in a long time. This article will open up the eyes of many people and make the Nintendo fans proud. Step inside to get a link and my review on it!
“Majora’s Mask is a game often applauded for its atmosphere. People constantly talk about both that and how dark the game was. These two things tend to be prime topics when discussing MM’s uniqueness – those, and the emotion they spawn either intentionally or unintentionally. This article is about the atmosphere and darkness, but mostly about the emotion of the game.”
Awesome enough for a read? It sure is! The article has a fairly good size and it discusses just what the title says it does. Read the whole thing, and you might just discover something new about MM as Axle uncovers his opinion. Is MM really that dark? And if it is, does it really matter? Oh, and people, check out Zelda Eternity on Halloween, cause there will be announcements then!
Once again, Zelda Informer stun us with a good article. Go over there and read their new “3DS and the Future of Zelda” article! Do you ever wonder what the future of the Zelda series might be? This article may get you thinking.This is a great source for theorizing, I mean, do you think Nintendo will create more 2D titles? Do you think they will make Majora’s Mask 3DS? Tell us, and remember to read Raven’s recent article which can be seen a few posts below.
Hey, there, Zelda Eternity readers! How are you? How’s the wife? The kids? The dog? Have you called your sister recently? Well, if that’s how it is, why on earth are you reading this update? You should be taking care of those things. But, whatever, I suppose, if you want to push your responsibilities off THAT BADLY, I’ll go ahead and help you along…
So, anyway, recently Zelda Dungeon posted an article about the Gerudo. It’s called, appropriately enough, “The Gerudo: The Mechanics of Life”. It explores the Gerudo race in a way you’ve never even wanted to before, and goes into more detail on them than your 10th grade biology textbook. Pretty impressive, considering how the Gerudo are, y’know, fictional. Check it out if you’ve got a few minutes to yourself, and you want to digest a good Zelda article.
No, I’m not talking about the top five Zelda articles, I’m talking about the “Top 5 articles”. Well, Legend Zelda just posted another one of those “Top Five” articles, it’s basically a bunch of articles that’s about Top 5 something in the Zelda series. So this is not a Top 5 article about the Top five articles on Zelda, it’s about the “Top 5 Articles” (lol).
Anyway, those articles includes top five mistakes, time wasters, scenes and things that makes no sense in the Zelda series. Four very nice articles, check out those and other articles on their Article page. And yes, they also changed between five and 5 (not that it makes any difference).
Since we here at Zelda Eternity cares about our affiliates, I create these community news posts every week. Let’s see what’s been happening in the community lately.
A new article hit Zelda Dungeon today, it’s called “The Gerudo: A Biologists Worst Nightmare?“. Written by “Smitie”, this article writes a bit about how the Gerudo’s could have excisted in real life. Read it here and comment below!
Also, Axle released his latest mailbag two days ago, you can watch it here, don’t forget to send in questions!
Zelda Universe just got up their September podcast, you can listen to it here. The Events includes a Cody interview and a quiz show that may or may not be related to the Zelda series.
And lastly, and article by Melchizedek Eleaza from Zelda Informer. It’s called “The Truth About Tingle“, I think the title pretty much says what the article is about.
Well, that’s it for this week, when it comes to our own site, V5 is getting closer and it will clear up a lot o confusion and make everything clear, you simply MUST be there to see it, it will be FABOLOUUUUUS! (Got the reference? lol). Hang in there people!
I just found something perfect for those who didn’t deliver an app to us cause they didn’t have time or they were unsure. Zelda Sages is now hiring! It’s right there at their main site! Especially since we’ve closed our staff positions, good luck to those over there.
Dathen Boccabella has written a nice article on Zelda Informer. It’s called “Zelda: Forever a Part of us” and marks the writters 99th post on ZI. Take a look! It’s a lot of the Zelda talk about what it does to us, and what it means to us.
As for ZD, our partnered website, Axle the Beast’s latest mailbag can be seen here, and his newest article about bosses in the Zelda series is called “Zelda Bosses: The Bigger They Are The Harder They Fall?” Sounds logic? Then go read it, Axle has done a lot of great articles lately.
Yeah, that’s right, I’m going to do community round-ups every week now. If there is something major for one special site I will post it, but then that will be a special post for that site. Daily news takes a lot of work, so enjoy it!
