 Hey folks, welcome back to Prime 5, your five biggest Nintendo news stories in the last 24 hours, or as it is on Mondays in the last 48 from over the weekend. Today's episode is gonna be a little bit different. It's gonna be a Zelda special because we got two big Zelda stories for you from over the weekend. One of them was actually a story we covered last week, but hey, YouTube, we got copyright claimed and I, look, we'll talk about that towards the end of the video. For now, let's just get right into the news after you go ahead and hit that subscribe button and drop a like if you enjoy this content. We do this Monday through Friday, so hopefully we'll see you guys at the end of this episode. Let's get right into the news. So our first story deals with a canceled Zelda game. We've covered this before, this Heroes of Hyrule game that was supposedly pitched by Retro Studios to Nintendo, but now we have additional details on this I wanna go over because did you know gaming drop that are highly detailed video on this? And I really suggest you take the time to go watch it because there's a lot of good stuff in it and we'll be using clips from the video throughout this description, but let's get right into it. And Heroes of Hyrule was a Final Fantasy style tactic scheme pitched to Nintendo from Retro Studios in 2004. Link was not the main character, but was an NPC. 100 years ago, three heroes defeated an ancient evil and sealed it away in a magical book. This is how the story goes. For many ages, the people lived in peace and freedom, free of the scourge that had tormented them for so long. Until one day when the book came into the hands of a young boy. 100 years ago, Ganon captured Princess Zelda. Link sets out to rescue Zelda, but Ganon's forces ambush Link and capture him. Three of Link's friends went on an adventure. Dunar, the Goron, Seraph, the Rito, and Krell, the Zora. Dunar is a rough and tough fighter who embodies the Triforce of power. He is the strong and silent type, although a few words he does use reveal a surprisingly keen intellect for a Goron. Seraph embodies the Triforce of courage. She's patient, helpful, and warm-hearted. She's remarkably brave and fiercely loyal to her friends. She was the first to discover that Link was kidnapped by Ganon's henchmen. And she organized the heroes in their quest to rescue Link. Krell embodies the Triforce of wisdom. He is the brains of the party and he makes no attempts to hide that fact. Although sometimes he comes across as a cynic and arrogant wisecracker, it quickly becomes clear that his abrasive personality is little more than a mask, which barely conceals his warm heart and deep and abiding loyalty to his friends. After many adventures, the heroes defeated Ganon in rescued Link. Ganon retreated into a magical spell book called The Book of Ganon. The book is actually Ganon's spell book, which he created as an instrument to enhance his evil power. Ganon infused this book with his own life essence, which allowed him to become much stronger when it's in his presence. After Ganon's defeat at the hands of the heroes, he cast his soul into the book, which allowed his spirit to live on in a badly weakened state. The heroes tried to destroy the book by burning it, but his pages would not catch fire. So the heroes decided to remove many of the books, key pages instead, which would ensure that Ganon would never be able to become whole again. The pages were scattered across the lands of Hyrule and the remains of the book were entrusted to Link. So then the game begins with you playing a young man named Corey, who meets an old man running an antique shop. 100 years pass. The old man one day has to leave the shop in a hurry. Then he asked Corey to watch over it. Corey eventually discovers a secret room in the shop where the book of Ganon is hidden. He reads the book, which tells of the events that happened 100 years ago. The game takes place two thirds in the past and one third in the present. In the past is all of the Final Fantasy tactic stuff and the present is a more traditional Zelda experience where you play as Corey. In the present, there isn't any combat or dungeons, but there is an explorable time where you do a bunch of side quests. The purpose of those side quests is to retrieve pages of the book of Ganon, which Corey doesn't realize is evil. He simply wants to read more about what happened in the past and every new page found unlocks a new event to play in the past. And as you can tell, there's a lot more to this story. And so I really encourage you go check out the rest of the Did You Know Gaming video. They did really amazing work over there. They even commissioned a custom artist for a bunch of art pieces to help illustrate some of this story. It's well worth watching if you're into the history of canceled Zelda games. And yeah, the old man's link. I don't think that's a shocker to anyone. Let's get into our next story. So last week we talked about how the runes inside Tears of the Kingdoms reveal trailer actually have been translated by Game Over Jesse or at least a member of Game Over Jesse's team. And Game Over Jesse finally put out a full video on it and set us some ramblings for my podcast. We now have all the full details. Now look, I'm not gonna go into how this person translated stuff. If you wanna know how, simply go over and watch Game Over Jesse's video on the topic. Again, it's a 16 minute long video and he goes really in depth on the process in which went into getting these translations. But I'd rather focus on the translations themselves and if you guys want more information, you just dive deeper. So the first translation comes from the runes that are on the wall during that one art depiction and it says, when the sun shines, the moon shines. When the moon shine, the stars shine. When the sun sets, the moon turns red. Daylight comes and goes, but the sun never shines. Obviously the moon turning red is a symbol of the blood moon but this is also meant to be a sort of unsolvable riddle. A Zen cone as it were. So there is that. Next up in the delay trailer with the shot of links glowing hand, there actually is the word obtain on the ground in the background. So that's just something to maybe keep in the back of our minds. I don't know what that means. There's a lot of speculation around it but we're gonna stick to what's been translated. Next up in the green dragons logo where the dragons are chasing each other in that logo for tears of the kingdom, there is actually text in that logo and it says meeting of lovers. Now, there's additional text as well in the dragons that are on the doors that Link opens up in the trailer that says building of counselors. Now this is actually more of a rough translation and most of this is exactly the same information I gave you guys last week. The reason that we're revisiting this is because that video got copyright claimed because we had a Google Stadia story in there with some clips from a Google Stadia trailer that Google owns that we got off the official Stadia YouTube channel and a completely unaffiliated party decided to copyright claim that trailer. And then they tried claiming when I disputed it, oh, we're not copyrighting the trailer, we're copyrighting what you're reading. Well, what I was reading was the official blog post on Google.com for the closure of Stadia. Daily.com does not own the rights to that blog post. So because of that, we got suppressed massively. That video could have did much bigger numbers and was on track too before it got suppressed. So we're revisiting the information today especially now that we have more exact imagery that we could throw with it thanks to Game Over Jesse and thanks to his team. So good work over there. You guys can go check out his video and also the video on Heroes of Hyrule down in the description below. I am Nathaniel Rufflejazz from Nintendo Prime. I want to thank you for turning into this sort of special edition of Prime 5 where it's just two stories all Zelda. But I, hey, I hope you enjoyed it. Look folks, we'll be back at it again tomorrow. And yeah, peace out.
