[Let’s Talk] Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom impressions
Posted on 2 weeks ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Let's Talk, Switch | 0 comments
The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom just came out, and we want to get impressions from those who started the game this week.
There’s no doubt that this is one of Nintendo’s biggest titles of the year and for Switch as a whole. Zelda has been going strong, but if we’re looking strictly at 2D games, this is the first one we’ve gotten in quite some time. It’s also significant for putting Zelda in the starring role and offering a new spin on the franchise’s formula while also taking inspiration from some of the things we saw from Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.
So if you’re playing Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, how are you feeling about it? Let us know in the comments below.

Flag Race short course guide for Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom
Posted on 2 weeks ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
The Legend of Zelda series is home to some of the most iconic villains in all of gaming, and Echoes of Wisdom has just introduced a brand-new one, which is the Flag Race mini-game. If you haven’t encountered it already, you’ll unlock it after completing a few specific steps. First, you need to have progressed far enough in the story that Impa tells you about a white horse (you can’t miss it, don’t worry). From there, you’ll need to head to Hyrule Ranch and then close a rift to unlock Zelda’s signature white horse. However, that’s where the challenge starts: upon unlocking this specific horse, Hyrule Ranch starts offering the Flag Race mini-game that has exclusive prizes within. And the Flag race short course is particularly difficult.

How to get a horse in Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom
Posted on 2 weeks ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
Today, we’re going over how to complete the Runaway Horse quest in The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom and get your very own steed.
Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is available now, and it’s got the largest overworld of any 2D entry in the series. That means traversing it on foot takes a long time. Fortunately, it’s possible to unlock the ability to tame and ride horses from Hyrule Ranch pretty early on in the game. This is done through the Runaway Horse side quest, which you can activate by talking to a man in Hyrule Ranch (which is a ways northwest from Lueburry’s House, if you’ve made it there).

[Review] The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom
Posted on 2 weeks ago by Ethan in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: September 26, 2024
Developer: Grezzo / Nintendo
Publisher: Nintendo
It’s no secret that the Legend of Zelda franchise has seen a big resurgence on Switch. The release of Breath of the Wild in 2017 changed the direction of the series for many years to come – the effects of which we’re still seeing today. For many years, fans wondered if games like Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom would push traditional 2D Zelda titles to the wayside for good. We didn’t have a definitive answer for the longest time, but this week, we finally got it – The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is finally here, and it proves that 2D Zelda not only is here to stay, but has a place alongside Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom as one of the better games in the series. Echoes of Wisdom is a clever, innovative title that brings forth a new and fully fleshed-out way to play the game.
