The Zelda Cast

Our Ōkami celebration comes to a close this week and to wrap things up we're looking ahead to the officially announced sequel! Back in 2024, Capcom revealed that the Ōkami sequel was in early development. After so many years since the original game's release there's a lot to discuss in regards to what we would want to see from a new game! This week we're listing off our suggestions and hopes on how the Ōkami sequel can improve on the original! From game pacing to story, game-play to technical improvements, and even the celestial brush itself!

There's a lot to consider so come hang out with us as we go over our hopes for the Ōkami sequel!

Our Ōkami celebration continues, as this week, we rank all eight dungeons in the Zelda-like title! From the not-quite-intro-but-close dungeons like Tsuta Ruins and Gale Shrine to the mini-dungeon Sunken Ship, to the literal mini-dunegon of the Imperial Palace to heavy hitters like the Moon Cave, Oni Island, and Wawku Shrine that would feel right at home in modern 3D Zelda titles, we go through them all and discuss the highs and lows. Plus, Al gives her thoughts after playing Ōkami for the first time about the game, its vibes, Issun, Orochi, Ninetails, and more!

All this, PLUS we talk the Zelda movie finishing shooting and talk new episodes of Middle-Earth: The Podcast. Come hang out!

Over the next few weeks, we are celebrating 20 years of one of - if not THE - greatest Zelda-like games of all time: Ōkami! We start off with our 20 Year Retrospective, as Zelda Dungeon's Nicole Scott and Miranda Feller join the show to discuss what makes Ōkami so endearing, what qualities make it such a Zelda-like, our memories playing the game for the first time, our thoughts on Amatersau as a main character and Issun as a companion, how the Celestial Brush techniques felt in both motion controls and standard mode, how the games story is structured, and how Ōkami might be the ultimate good vibes game.

The next few weeks are all about Ōkami as it celebrates this milestone anniversary, so if it's been a while or you've never played it, we hope you do!

The "Wild Era" of The Legend of Zelda has redefined the series for over twelve years, ever since the original trailer for Zelda Wii U back in 2014. This week, we're looking back at the high-points and low-points of all things Zelda throughout the Wild Era! We'll be examining the major events that surrounded the games' releases as well as the significant changes that these games brought to the series! There's a lot to cover between all of the things we love about these games and those we wished could've been done differently. In fact, there was so much to discuss that we had to make this a two-part episode! Come hang out with us for part one of our Wild Era Zelda breakdown!

All this, PLUS our thoughts on the results of Musical March Madness!

For Next Week! Our celebration of the 20th anniversary of Okami begins! Join us then for a detour into one of our favorite Zelda-likes!

We've taken a trip to the movie theaters this week, and we are coming back with our Yoshi popcorn buckets to talk about the Super Mario Galaxy Movie! We've broken the episode up into clear non-spoiler and spoiler territory, but even so, be warned! We're giving our review, discussing whether the movie recaptured the magic of the original, how the new additions to the voice cast fared, what our favorite surprises were, and how Nintendo needs to go all in on Star Fox! Plus - what, if anything, can the Zelda movie take away from the Galaxy Movie?

Let us know if you think our review is fresh or rotten, PLUS get geared up for the 3rd annual Marlo Means Fun Marathon, happening April 11th and 12 on Twitch with an interview featuring Kora Burton, who shares her story and the inspiration behind creating the event!
