Hey thank you all so much for watching the new episode of Talk of the Kingdom today! I had so much fun hosting this episode and geeking out about Zelda with this panel. Kat, Reb, Seth, and Jeffrey are phenomenal co-hosts. Love this team a ton. Thanks a ton to the NVC viewers and listeners for rocking with us ⚔️🛡️
Great seeing Brian back on NVC, Kat bob on as usual as well. Also laughed at Reb's "Ganondorf doesn't play tennis at the weekends" and here's me playing hadouken tennis with him with my fishing net nearly every game.
When y’all theorized Zelda is leaving clues you find and she’s trapped in the past I’m just saying at my car speakers “that’s the plot of Skyward Sword! Somebody mention Skyward Sword!”
The one theory you guys didn't mention is that this game could be the end of the timeline. The curse is tied to the master sword, it's broken, meaning this game could see the end of the curse and a possible clean slate for future Zelda titles.
Just got my Zelda: TotK Switch yesterday, it’s simply lovely to look at and hold. It’s also my first Switch, was excited to get to finally try it out! Played Metroid Dread as my first Switch game, absolutely loving the experience. So thrilled with my purchase and looking forward to TotK.
im really hoping that as we clear gloom on the map we slowly bit by bit fix the master sword. sounds like a fun grind. but your theory on going into the past to get the sword before it was destroyed is verrrrrrry probable!
Zelda travels to each timeline where each version of link needs to complete a task. When Oot link (who is now older in his original timeline) completes his task, zelda ensures he rightfully gets recognized as the Hero of Time in his world/timeline.
It’s possible that Link won’t wake up at the beginning of this game because it’s the same hero. There is a theory that in every new Zelda game link, waking up, symbolizes a new incarnation of the hero awakening to his purpose.
@45:00 that is so relatable to me, my first Zelda game being Link's awakening, and having my "Zelda awakening" when, stuck in the first dungeon (or is it second?) for eons, until my cousin told me "well, you need to push that block to open the door"... WHAT??? That's really for me the defining moment that set me on course to play all the Zelda games after.
38:39 There are Mario hanafuda available on the My Nintendo store right now. They're super cute but the downside is that if you're trying to legit learn a game like Koi Koi, the replacement of standard visual elements with Mario characters makes that more difficult. Also there are two western card decks with Splatoon art rn.
Hi guys! Maybe some helpfull feedback : the girl has a very sharp “S” pronunciation. Maybe have the audio guy tinker a bit with the equalizing. Other than that : great show from everybody. Love to hear your thoughts
The Garudo, under the command of Ganondorf, was at war/hostilities with the young Hylrule. This is proved by the fact that Ganondorf attacked the young Hyrule kingdom (now the Great Plateau) before Ganondorf came to swear fealty. Raura only sent invites to join the kingdom but Ganondorf kept refusing until he realized he needed to be close to get a Secret Stone.
Appreciate the kind words, but we want this to feel different because it’s a special little exciting miniseries, and who better to host than the guy who played one-half of Link on Breath of the Wild?
@@pkcoffee33 He use to be a staple on NVC. It use to be Peer, Brian and Jose or Peer, Brian and Zac. Of course there were times before that but Brian and Peer as main host ran for years
3:12 This dude hasn’t even watched the trailers, Zelda is indeed holding the broken master sword. Get someone who knows what they’re talking about next time
Relax. They have all obviously watched the trailer that's a very dumb assumption. I've watched this trailer almost every day and it's hard to tell exactly if the sword is broken or not.

Awesome Episode Man!!!
Love the coverage within this special series. Wild, just a week left!! Thank you for this
WE LOVE BRIAN.
@@revyb to the entire IGN fam, thanks for taking us on this wild ride 🥳🎉🎉🎉
Brian, please stay as a regular on NVC, the podcast really needs you!
When they said they’re not garbage people, they meant they are not Kotaku 🌚
Damn.😩🤣
So excited Brian is back for 6 episodes! Never stop talking about Links Awakening, it was my first zelda game and holds a special place in my heart.
Kat's takes on Japanese convenience stores are all spot on.
Great seeing Brian back on NVC, Kat bob on as usual as well.
Also laughed at Reb's "Ganondorf doesn't play tennis at the weekends" and here's me playing hadouken tennis with him with my fishing net nearly every game.
Some of my favorite commentators talking about Zelda theory! You guys are great! Thanks for all the great content!
Absolutely. So happy we all get to talk Zelda!
lol Seth with the MGS2 reference aha what an absolute legend
Sexy Gannondorf definitely has a more heroic, virtuous look.
The better to Smash you with

Oh what a GREAT lineup everyone! I’m just starting the vid but I’m so excited!! In the home stretch now!!!
Aww.. Reb got me really emotional talking about Majora’s Mask! Yeah, It can hit you in the feels! Warm hugs Reb!
This lineup of of commentators is AAA Tier.

Metroid Dread is an awesome one, especially on the OLED.
This was a super fun panel, and it's always a treat to have Brian back on the show/hosting!

Thank you for not spoiling!!! Love you all :)
They absolutely spoiled
They say that Ganon looks like the hero on the mural but don't say squat about the four champions not resembling their races.
Zelda travels to each timeline where each version of link needs to complete a task. When Oot link (who is now older in his original timeline) completes his task, zelda ensures he rightfully gets recognized as the Hero of Time in his world/timeline.
Loving this nerdout
It's why we're all wearing glasses today
21:36 excellent theory. Ten out of Nis
That was great episode 👏🏽👏🏽
Thanks!

Love Reb’s story about her GameCube journey
So much fun, what a great crew
Thank you Hayley my only friend
“there are two ganons inside of you” 🥴🥴
Love the title. You could keep his going indefinitely.
Honestly, if the game turns out to be bigger than Breath of the Wild, yeah.
Did you see that Target’s launch day bonus is a fanny pack? They call it a pouch, but it is functionally a fanny pack out of the 90s
Changing my preorder immediately to Target
talk of the kingdom!
That intro music tho 🥹
Bro hasn’t even watched all the trailers. She’s holding the broken sword.
Thank you for not being kotaku. Respect. ☺
Ganondorf has the sports almanac 😂
This makes me want to replay mm again
Who else has a theory about this game might get released on May 12th, 2023?
Already proven false by leakers, sadly 😢
Deep cut theory
Do you have any evidence?
One week from today? That'd be interesting.
Shadow-dropping a game already scheduled for release is TIGHT!

Wow! What a cast!
An all glasses panel!!
Ganondorf LOVES Tennis! They used to call him ‘ol Tennis the Menace
Dress up as Tinkle should be the bet
Hi guys! Maybe some helpfull feedback : the girl has a very sharp “S” pronunciation. Maybe have the audio guy tinker a bit with the equalizing. Other than that : great show from everybody. Love to hear your thoughts
41:10 funniest part of the episode hands down.
Nice episode ❤
Vendó churros, dorilocos, pepihuates, surtíos, aguas frescas, fresas 🍓 con crema.
I’m from the future… the topped the intro of BOTW
Get the Tingle!
33:47 (7-Eleven Contest)
When a next generation Switch comes out do you think that there will be an HD version of Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom?
Something nice!
Link's look is based on Peter Pan.
"classic hero" lol
30:58 except for in Twilight Princess! Link turns into a chicken when he attacks it enough.
Winners dress like zelda and link, losers dress like bokoblins.
You mentioed similar, but Ganon can be like Bowser in Paper Mario Origami King
Glasses only chat yall ❤
A nice comment.
Nintendo should have made you go to the past and call the game: "Before the wild"
Maybe the forest went up in the sky.
54:35 brian will look like tingle, reb
Crazy theories? We need more ahahaha.
Rauru was talking about FEALTY so I'm not exactly pro-Hyrule after this game.
The Garudo, under the command of Ganondorf, was at war/hostilities with the young Hylrule. This is proved by the fact that Ganondorf attacked the young Hyrule kingdom (now the Great Plateau) before Ganondorf came to swear fealty. Raura only sent invites to join the kingdom but Ganondorf kept refusing until he realized he needed to be close to get a Secret Stone.
For the bet - the loser has to chug a jar of Lon Lon Milk like Young Link - sound effects and all
7/11 >Family Mart>Lawsons
No thanks, I'll play the game myself and come up with my own "theories". 😉
Literally just came to say... Don't pull a Rings of Power marketing blunder against Nintendo. Calling Ganon sexy is not helping!
Seth making faces the whole show.
My whole life you mean
Love the show and you Brian. But Seth is the best host...the show feels different with him not in the hot seat.
Well you only get me in the hosting chair for four more episodes before I vanish into the night again. Until then I’m gonna have fun up there ❤
Appreciate the kind words, but we want this to feel different because it’s a special little exciting miniseries, and who better to host than the guy who played one-half of Link on Breath of the Wild?
@@BrianAltano You're doing great hosting this special, Brian! And you have great taste in games (Link's Awakening is S tier). Have a nice weekend! 😊
Its impressive how many bad Legend of Zelda takes Rebekah had in such a short period of time.
More people going to prison over this leak, Nintendo dont mess around with leakers.
Lurelin is Outset
Button Chair Plz 😅
Best dressed Link is Twilight Princess
❤❤❤
Implying he wasn't already sexy in the past.
did guy on the right talk about pokemon again
The purpose is simply to create new exciting experiences, Tiers of the Kingdom^8{ #brilliant
Back off Rebb, you leave green Link alone...
Is Piere no longer on the show??
Peer is always in-and-out of NVC, presumably cause he gets busy with other stuff
Brian said last week, he is on vacation
Peer is impossibly busy all the time and it’s a blessing when he’s able to make the time to be on with us.
@@pkcoffee33 He use to be a staple on NVC. It use to be Peer, Brian and Jose or Peer, Brian and Zac. Of course there were times before that but Brian and Peer as main host ran for years
OG>
Tears of the Tendies T_T
Alternately, Tendies of the Kingdom.
Ganon did nothing wrong!!1!
no peer :(
My theory: Zelda will have it's LoU2 moment. You will play as Ganondorf and you will kill Link
Spoilers for Link to the Past OMMGGGGG!!!!!! 😱😱😱😱😱
just kidding 😂
Well. Zelda is definitely not playable in the beginning. Lol
Ocarina of time Ganondorf was better.
did Seth get demoted??
Not at all, I’m just guest hosting for a few weeks for this Zelda miniseries. If anything we’re trying to get Seth on MORE stuff. Seth is amazing.
Shucks.
Need wayyyyyyyy more love for the original. Yikes.
The tapestry is propaganda.
FFS Why is ign posting spoiler in the thumbnail? 😢
It's not a spoiler if that character is featured on the official game website and in the trailer. You're just overly sensitive on what you see.
Sound like you guys are now fully Kotaku. Pooeew.
Did you fall into a pool at the end of this comment.
Sexy ganandorf ? Really ign this talk reminds me of kotaku and their but plug non sense, it’s video games talk video games
We talked about video games for 78 minutes. Check out the video above.
3:12 This dude hasn’t even watched the trailers, Zelda is indeed holding the broken master sword. Get someone who knows what they’re talking about next time
Homie why are you so pressed lol
Relax. They have all obviously watched the trailer that's a very dumb assumption. I've watched this trailer almost every day and it's hard to tell exactly if the sword is broken or not.
@@Hydelsius bro how did he obviously watch the trailer if he clearly didn’t 🤣
Ocarina of time Ganondorf was better.
