Summary

The future of the smaller, quainter 2D Zelda games seems to be in question now that there's no dedicated handheld-only console, but never fear! We're keeping the hope alive by detailing things we would want to see from a new top-down 2D adventure! Everything is on the table as we look at things that games like A Link Between Worlds, Tunic, and Blossom Tales did well to get an idea of what we want. A new art style? Must have! An original setting outside of Hyrule? Yes please! Improved combat that utilizes lock-on and quasi-3D targeting? Where do we sign!? A cap on the number of dungeons in the game? That's debatable, but hear us out! We have a ton of different ideas on what the next 2D game could look like, so come and hang out with us and chime in with your own ideas! All this, PLUS some Nintendo Direct, Switch 2, and Xbox talk to get us started! Come spend your holiday Monday with us! Download! Support The Zelda Cast on Patreon!

0:00.0	Hello everyone. My name is Andy Spiteri and I'm the host of the Zelda cast,
0:12.0	and the Omega Metroid podcast, and Virtual Theater. As you can tell, I really love podcasting.
0:18.0	After almost six years of the Zelda cast, five years of virtual
0:21.7	theater, and four years of the Omega Metroid podcast, I swore that I would never make another

0:51.8	a classic ranking on different topics each month with a different guest.

1:13.8	really want to take your Spateri podcasting to the next level. If that isn't
1:17.9	enough all shows feature a level of interactivity where patrons can weigh in and
1:21.7	vote on which topics, shows, and areas we discuss next. Membership starts at as
1:26.8	little as $1 a month,
