Thanks to the massive art book for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom that came out in Japan not too long ago, new lore details are available. Reddit user livixbobbiex has been poking through the Japanese text and shared a number of tidbits.

The art book delves a bit deeper into the Zonai. A few other topics are touched on as well.

Here’s the full roundup of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom lore details passed along by livixbobbiex:

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.

Mario Kart missing courses

The Mario Kart series is home to many, many different courses, and each new game in the series adds even more to that big number.

Today, we’re listing off all the Mario Kart tracks that never returned to future entries in the series. Do keep in mind that we won’t count Mario Kart Tour here – eventually, its service will end and the tracks in it will presumably become inaccessible. In case that happens, we’re sticking to courses that haven’t appeared in any main series games since their debut.

Ace Attorney interview future

Capcom has been doing quite a bit with Ace Attorney over the past few years, at least when it comes to bringing back the series’ various titles for current consoles. It also sounds like the company won’t be ending things with the recently-released Ace Attorney Investigations Collection.

In an interview with Capcom’s Kenichi Hashimoto, NetLab brought up how Ace Attorney merchandise was been pretty popular in Japan as of late. That eventually led to the following exchange (translated by Nintendo Everything):

System: Switch
Release date: September 26, 2024
Developer: Grezzo / 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.
