Oct 9 2009 Could It Really Be?: Link's Biological Father

links-father.jpg

This is a picture of a Nordic looking dude who may or may not be Link's biological father. He probably is, I just never pictured Link Sr. as a pantless cigar smoker. I mean, not that there's anything wrong with that. Love you Grandpa!

Thanks to Yopoleo, who I question how he found the picture in the first place. Suuuure you just stumbled across it searching Google!

paper-zelda.jpg

Papercrafter Haywan got ambitious and decided to make a life-size Link. Out of paper. Making it quite possibly the most amazing feat I've ever seen in my entire life. Be sure to follow the links to see more pictures and ten videos of Haywan putting the thing together. WARNING: It's mind bogglingly complicated. Good lookin', Haywan, now how about a life-size Zelda? What? I LIKE PAPERCUTS DOWN THERE.

Hit the jump for a couple close-ups and a Link (!) to even more pictures and video.

Jun 5 2009 Who Is That?!: New Zelda Game Concept Art

new zelda art.jpg

Although Nintendo didn't actually announce a new Zelda at E3 (but did announce a new Metroid, Super Mario Galaxy and WiiFit), here's some concept art shown by Shigeru Miyamoto to a group of game developers at a following conference.

I don't know about you, but that's no Princess Zelda. Could it be, as so many are speculating, the living incarnation of the Master Sword?

ZOMG -- the master sword chick doesn't have any arms! And I, for one, am not ashamed to admit that I would be totally cool hitting that. Armless swords are people too, you know.

Jun 2 2009 For The Ladies: Reader's Sweet Zelda Tattoo

In a power move to impress Zelda tattoo girl (she's mine!), Geekologie Reader Erik got a badass Zelda tattoo of his own. Which, I think we can all agree, contrasts the flaming skull beautifully.

Thanks to Ronni and Erik, who know swinging a master sword and yelling is the way to any woman's heart.

Apr 20 2009 Awesome: Dog Named Link Dressed As Link

link dog 1.jpg

Loyal Geekologie Reader Natalia sent me pictures of her dog, Link, dressed as our favorite video game adventurer of the same name. As you can see, his costume is complete with classic green tunic, sword and shield. And that, my friends, is awesome. So awesome, in fact, I've been inspired to rename my dog Zelda and make her a dress.

UPDATE: BAD IDEA -- BAD IDEA!

Hit the jump for two more.

Mar 17 2009 These Beats Are Sooo Fresh: The Ocarinas Of Rhyme, TWO Different Zelda Rap Albums

ocarinas of rhyme.jpg

That's right folks: not one but TWO different rap albums set to the beats of Zelda games dropping on the same day -- with the same name! What are the odds? Pretty good considering one of the guys (Sleaze) thinks his idea was stolen. Anyway, first there is Team Teamwork Presents The Ocarina of Time, which features the music of Hyrule and Zelda games set to raps by famous artists. But then there's Sleaze's (who may or may not be this guy) Ocarina of Rhyme with all original raps by himself. So, who will slay Gannon? Who will win Hyrule? And who will bang Zelda while the other plays with himself in the Lost Woods while that creepy kid with the mask watches? You decide.

Hit the jump for audio samples of each, and the links to download (for free).

Dec 11 2008 Love: A Zelda Cosplay Girls Gallery *Swoon*

zelda-1.jpg

By now all you regulars know about my affinity for Zelda. And for you newcomers: I have an affinity for Zelda. So what better way to share my love of the princess than to, uh, post a bunch of pictures of chicks dressed as Link? I know, I'm confused too. But that hasn't stopped these amorous feelings. I'm especially digging the tall one in green on the left. I freaking love a chick that's cool not shaving her legs. RAWR!

Hit the jump for a ton more of the two in red and blue, who are actually chicks, I swear.

Sep 8 2008 The Legend Of Fashion: Painted Link Shirt

link-shirt-1.jpg

Geekologie reader and soon to be eBay Power Seller Vahn painted a Link t-shirt and is now selling it.

The painting was done with high quality artist acrylic paints, with textile paint medium to adhere the paints to the fabric. It was been coated with a safe acrylic varnish so the paint doesn't come off with gentle washing, and it has been ironed for permanence. I did use some metallic paints, so the art is not completely flat.

The bidding starts at $10 and there is a reasonable $4 shipping charge. Unlike some of the asshats on eBay that sell shit for $0.99 and then charge $20 shipping. In unrelated news, my girlfriend once bought a clock from the thrift store, then donated it back. Then bought it again. Then donated it again. Then bought it again. Then I freaking smashed it.

Hit the jump for a close up of Link's mug as well as a link(!) to the auction.
