In a surprising move, Nintendo has officially greenlit a live-action movie adaptation of their beloved franchise, The Legend of Zelda. For years, the gaming giant had been cautious about branching out into non-gaming media, given the less-than-stellar track record of video game adaptations. One notorious example is the universally panned live-action Super Mario Bros. film from years past. However, with the evolving landscape of the entertainment industry, Nintendo has become more receptive to collaborating with Hollywood to bring their cherished characters to life, driven by a deeper understanding of fans’…

Story By Mitchell Smith Well hello everyone. This week we lost Masayuki Uemura, the man responsible for creating the NES and Super NES console. Nintendo was founded in 1889 and originally made card games. Nearly 90 years later the world was about to change. Uemura was born June 20th 1943 in Tokyo Japan. Uemura worked for Sharpe before landing a job at Nintendo in 1971. At the time not many people knew much about Nintendo. When Uemura was hired little did he know on the other side of the globe…

It was a really cool looking game, I mean the gold cartridge just sold itself. I remember back in the day playing hours on end. This is one that even my son was…

The NES hit shelves in the US in 1985. I remember renting the system from our local grocery store. I mostly played Mario and Zelda. When the Super NES hit in 1991 this was the best thing since sliced bread. I had a ton of games and I had major battles with my brothers and friends. My son and I recently played Zelda A Link to the Past. Back in the day it took me and my 3 brothers playing round the clock trial and error to figure out the…

1986 Zelda I had a chance to play one of my favorite video games from my childhood the other day. Zelda was a great game back in 1986 and pretty sure it consumed the better part of my summer of 1987. The Nintendo was relatively still new and Super Mario was a great game that everyone had because it came with the console so, when Zelda came out it gave a whole new dynamic to the NES. You could save your progress on Zelda not like Mario where once you…
