Masamune/Gamehiker, someone I knew from way back in the early 00's forums, contacted me to let me know they had fully translated Junko Taguchi's 1993 manga! So for the first time in over 32 years we can now read it in English! #zelda #nintendo #lttp

PEOPLE: - Avi Arad, age 75. Producer of the upcoming The Legend of Zelda film. QUOTE: Arad: “I am a dual citizen of Israel and the United States. I was born and raised in Israel and moved to the United States in 1969. I proudly served in the Israeli military [from 1965-1968].” ”Every day, Hamas churns out misinformation. They inflate casualty numbers and make false accusations to smear Israel’s reputation.” ”The blood of all those killed in this war, both Palestinians and Israelis, is on Hamas’ hands. Hamas does not want peace. Hamas wants the death of Jews and the death of the democratic state of Israel.”

These disturbing masses of sand are capable of birthing new Gibdos to terrorize anyone caught in the Sand Shroud.

Aonuma: We developed a game called Marvelous which used the Satellaview almost eight years ago. In that game, we had a quest where you would collect stamps while listening to a radio which gave you clues. We took that idea and reproduced it by using connectivity instead. Tsuchiyama: During the initial planning stage, we were using a woman in a passenger seat of a car, giving you vague directions on where to find the items. Almost like dealing with an annoying backseat driver who is giving you horrible directions as you try to reach your destination without losing your patience. Producers suggested we tie this in with the Zelda franchise, and soon enough Navi Trackers was born.

A budding Smoothie Shop is plagued by disastrous—yet delicious—supply issues. The proprietor can't go out into the sea to get kelp, so it's up to Zelda to get more. Actually, it's just up to the Business Scrub to snack less...

Precious little is actually known about the Dracozu Altar. It sits tucked away behind a waterfall and does not seem to host much other than a lone Treasure Chest.

PEOPLE: - Chris Hackney, age 42. The English voice of Rauru in Tears of the Kingdom. QUOTE: Hackney: Please tell Nintendo (and all other developers/studios/manufacturers) that you want physical only, on-the-cartridge/disc media. [link to a Nintendo survey] To be clear, I mean "physical only" when it comes to these stupid key card things. Digital? Fine. Physical? Better. Key card? The worst of both. Also, physical boxes with a download code? EFF. OFF.

Nintendo wants us to forget, but we refuse.

The most pressing question for Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment to answer is: will we ever know what became of the E3 2019 rat?

Despite being bathed in the sacred energy of the Korok Forest, the Master Sword quickly shattered to Demon King Ganondorf's Gloom. After receiving it from across the expanse of time, Zelda understood her duty was to restore it at any cost.

New article spotlight: Divine Helm

New article spotlight: Divine Helm

Divine Helms are a pervasive element of the Wilds stories. They're gifted to people to strengthen bonds between groups. When Link wears one in Tears of the Kingdom, Sage Avatars will also change to reflect this.

PEOPLE: - Junya Osada. Sound Programmer for Tears of the Kingdom. QUOTE: Osada: [Tears of the Kingdom] has complicated terrain such as caves. Sound obstruction and occlusion are important when creating a more realistic Hyrule. … To depict a 3D world, the terrain contains voxel information. Each voxel stores terrain information such as whether its coordinates are located indoors, or near the water's surface, [or whether it’s possible to use Ascend]. Sound uses these voxels too, to search for sound paths. … In this game, the sound system performs calculations for the audio listener based on the camera's position, but searches for sound paths between the sound force and Link’s position. This is why sound changes when you go behind a wall.

The ones on the Fandom Nintendo site have not been renamed from Zelda Wiki's uploads. They are official press assets that we received from Nintendo. Rather than obtaining the materials themselves, they apparently took them from us after we published them.

Most of these renders have not been released in a transparent format, and instead had to be made transparent. It is harder to see on Fandom's background, but you can see the result of the process on the Great Fairy's wing here.

The Fandom Zelda site where several renders made transparent by Zelda Wiki members have been taken and renamed without attribution.

Another week, another Fandom user stealing our work.

The Sage of Lightning has received a redesign between Tears of the Kingdom and Age of Imprisonment.

You can see the biggest difference in her hair and makeup. She is also given a green outfit before being appointed as Sage.

All of the press images from the latest Nintendo Direct are available on the Age of Imprisonment gallery page.

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment has given us some great shots of the Ancient Hyrule Castle.

You can even see a body of water in the back between the Castle and Mount Hylia. Before now, there were no indications of it being there in the ancient Era of Myth.

A big project has finally been completed! We now have pages for every floor of the Temple of the Ocean King.

We also have pages for the connecting rooms where story elements happen, like the Entry Hall and the Stairway to Bellum.

If you ever find yourself on Mercay Island, please give them a read!

Graphic for the Dohna article.

The Gerudo captain is also the daughter of Seera, the chief of Gerudo Town. Though skilled, she is still unproven as a leader. Despite this, she is earnest and firm in her convictions, willing to put her own reputation on the line for her people.

Fandom's solution, especially after cutting out a large number of their staff force, is to wait until someone tells them there is plagiarism for them to actually address it, rather than spotting it themselves.

Looking at how Google handles SEO, it's always too damn late when they handle it.

Have problems like this? Let us know. We're specialized to get plagiarism like this removed.

We refuse to let independent sites have their work stolen and tarnished by Fandom or other wiki farms.

Both of these images cost money to produce and despite this person being asked to do the bare minimum to source their files, this is still happening without a second thought.
