Zelda Echoes of Wisdom Triforce Prime Energy

The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom features the use of the Triforce for its story, but rather than actually calling it that, the game uses “Prime Energy” instead. The developers have now shared noteworthy information about the decision to use a different name.

The Trifroce is one of the more iconic elements of the Zelda series. However, Nintendo and Grezzo made the active choice to avoid using that word. In fact, series producer Eiji Aonuma was specifically opposed to using the Triforce. Aonuma indicated that “Triforce” brings along certain expectations, and that’s also why the team “purposefully made the setting and time ambiguous.”

The Paper Mario and Mario & Luigi franchises have both been around for a long time. Various games have been released across different generations of Nintendo hardware. Paper Mario has mostly seen a fairly consistent lineup of games, but it was the future of Mario & Luigi that was in doubt after developer AlphaDream shuttered several years back. Now development duties of the series have shifted to Acquire, the company who worked on the Octopath Traveler titles.

Paper Mario and Mario & Luigi are often compared (we’re not forgetting Mario RPG, but there’s just one game for that IP). Some fans prefer one of these series over the other. With Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door came to Switch earlier this year and Mario & Luigi: Brothership having just released, we wanted to ask where you stand. If you had to choose, are you Team Paper Mario or Team Mario & Luigi? Let us know in the comments.
