Okay, I know this is the "BOTW" Forum, but there is no other dedicated "Zelda" Forum and this just HAS to be seen ..read more

Is it possible to play BOTW on WiiU with anything other than the large WiiU controller? I have a Switch and Switch Pro Controller, a PS3 dual shock controller and Gamecube style 3rd party controller that connects to the nunchuk port on a wii remote. The last of those works on the WiiU menu perfectly but seems to be locked out when I actually run the game which is a pity.

Been reading up on amiibo functionality in zelda. Sounds pretty cool in that you actually get some benefit from them. Sold out everywhere though and going for silly money. Anyone been using them to get loot drops ..read more

As a thank you to all the members who have been contributing to the Switch thread, I have decided to do a giveaway of my... Read more ..read more

A little early but there might be a few of us lucky enough to get a copy before the 3rd Plenty of these play and help threads on the PS4 boards, and Zelda seems like it'll worth having one for. Share your experiences (spoilers please!), ask questions, and help your fellow AVF adventurers make their merry way around Hyrule ..read more

So my gaming friends and I were having a long discussion the other night about how utterly amazing Breath of the Wild has been and where Nintendo can take the Zelda series from here. Like Ocarina of Time, BotW is such a huge leap forward for the series it'll take some beating, and they're bound to upset some fans whichever direction they go. Should they go back to the old formula, stick with open world design, or go in a completely new direction? We came up with a few possibilities for the... Read more ..read more
