ZUCast: Celebrating Twenty Years of Majora’s Mask!




ZUCast show

Summary: The fine people of the ZUBC are back to celebrate two decades of one of the most unique and divisive games in the Zelda franchise: The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask! Join us, won’t you? If you found us through Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify, or some other podcatcher, then I encourage you to check out our website, zeldauniverse.net; we publish Legend of Zelda and Nintendo related news, exclusive editorial content and features, game guides, and more. You can also subscribe to ZeldaUniverseTV on YouTube and Twitch or join our large, welcoming forum community! Yes, it’s been twenty long years since Majora’s Mask graced our N64s, pulling us into a world more alive than any in gaming before it. I mean, the world was about to be very much not alive, but that’s what Link is for! Anyway, this episode, we’re celebrating this spoopy game with lots of MM content! Brian T. has a special edition of “Hey Listen!” about his hate-love journey with the game over the years, Shona examines a few of the many odd things in and about the game, Kelly the Editor makes her segment debut with a mind-blowing theory about the Happy Mask Salesman, and ZU’s Twitch Director, Mr. Elias Thompson, pops in to reveal some little-known “facts” about how the game came to be! Plus, Realm and Ann are finally back to cover some of the Zelda Universe Forum news from the past few months! And it’s all tied together by your hosts, Cody and Peyton, who were born before and after the release of Majora’s Mask, respectively! So what are you waiting for? Press play! (Oh, and if you play the Inverted Song of Time on an Ocarina, this episode will playback at half-speed, while playing the Song of Double Time will make it playback at double speed. I’ve tried both, and they definitely, totally work.)
