NBCUniversal may have let the name of the upcoming Mario movie slip a little early. In a recent press release, they mention the name of the upcoming Mario movie, Super Mario World. In a later update, the name of the movie was removed. Will the next Mario movie indeed be titled “Super Mario World?”

Today marks two years since the release of The Legend of Zelda:Tears of the Kingdom. It hasn’t been that long, but it doesn’t feel like it was two years ago when Link first woke up on the Great Sky Island and we began that journey. Happy 2nd Anniversary to Tears of the Kingdom.

Let’s ask the important questions here. So, we know they drink wine and liquor in Hyrule. There are wine bottles found throughout the kingdom, and the Noble Canteen in Gerudo Town is stocked with liquor bottles. What about beer? Do they drink beer and ales in Hyrule in The Legend of Zelda as well?

Nintendo fans are eating good this week! The Nintendo Switch 2 Direct happens tomorrow. It will be a 60 minute Direct featuring the Switch 2. Then, on Thursday and Friday, there will be two Nintendo Treehouse events focusing on Switch 2 gameplay. I wonder what games will be featured…

Nintendo has shared the release date for the live action Zelda movie. Two years from now (well, two days shy of two years) we will be watching this movie! I am kind of curious to see what this movie will be like… I wonder if we will see any details at all this year.

Two Nintendo Directs?? Yes! There is a Switch 1 Direct that will run for about 30 minutes and feature games releasing on the original Switch. Then, next week, we have the long awaited Switch 2 Direct.

The Monster Stew from the Legend of Zelda is a rich, purple-hued dish that blends pork, white fish, bold spices, and a touch of ube for a savory-sweet flavor twist—just like the unpredictable magic of Monster Extract. #thelegendofzelda #recipe #zelda Recipe: arithmacook.blogspot.com/2024/11/mons...

The modder MasaGratoR made a discovery within the newly released Xenoblade Chronicles X DE. The game’s executable contains a partially implemented hidden 60 FPS mode, though enabling it causes glitches. Is this a feature intended for playing the game on the Nintendo Switch 2?

Got my copy of Xenoblade Chronicles X today and looking forward to giving it a go! I haven’t actually played this one yet, so definitely excited to see what XCX is all about. Anyone else playing Xenoblade Chronicles X Definitive Edition?

The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap was released on January 10, 2005, twenty years ago today. This game was actually made by Capcom, and they did a fantastic job with it. It was kind of a shorter game, but one I really enjoyed playing. Have you played the Minish Cap? Did you enjoy it?

Now, ranking lists are always subjective and debatable, but regardless, it’s still very cool to see Breath of the Wild make number one. Definitely an influential game and a game I truly loved playing. Congrats to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild!

It looks as though our first actual look at the next Nintendo system may not be coming from Nintendo themselves. Accessory manufacturer Genki used renderings and a mock up of the Switch 2 at CES in Las Vegas to show off their accessories for the console.

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword dropped on the Nintendo Music app, and I am genuinely puzzled as to why they didn’t refer to this song as “Romance in the Air.” Isn’t that the actual title?

Looking to add a little Legend of Zelda to your Christmas season? These albums are a great way to do that. “A Merry Hyrule Christmas” and “A Very Zelda Christmas” are filled with festive songs that mash up Christmas tunes with songs from the Zelda series. I highly recommend giving both a listen.

The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks first released 15 years ago today. It was a very unique experience trekking across New Hyrule in a train. Who doesn’t love trains? The mechanics, characters, and gameplay were a lot of fun. This game has arguably one of the best Zeldas in the series in my opinion.
