Welcome back to Super Crash Bros! This is a new season of GateCrashers dedicated to kicking open the door to your next favorite Nintendo series!
In the second episode, Jon and RJ venture to the land of Hyrule to discuss one of their favorite video games series of all time, The Legend of Zelda. They are joined, for the very first time in her podcast debut, by Jon’s girlfriend Amanda!
Amanda experienced the Zelda series for the very first time when she borrowed Jon’s copy of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild to see why her boyfriend kept hyping this series up. She immediately fell for the open world of Hyrule and this game and the fact that you are able to do ANYTHING. She found the gateway to her new favorite world, and since that’s the whole essence of GateCrashers is about, she was the perfect guest for this episode.
The three adventurers also discuss how Jon and RJ got into the series, how they all played Breath of the Wild in vastly different ways (hint: Amanda really likes apples in this game), the absolutely wild and what makes this series so enjoyable nearly 40 years after the original game in the series was released for the NES.
It also wouldn’t be a GateCrashers episode without the trio bringing some kind of chaotic energy to the mix and boy howdy do they. They talk about how Link and the Zora….well, just listen to the episode to find out.
Also, be sure to peep the site to check out the Zelda music ranking list Jon created last year when the sequel to Breath of the Wild, Tears of the Kingdom, was coming out! It’s a completely normal list that definitely isn’t the most insane thing he’s ever written. No sireee Bob just a regular music ranking!
