 I am Nathaniel Ruffal-Jantz and you probably recognize me because I've been all over this channel over the last seven years or so and I Always say hey, I'm Nathaniel Ruffal-Jantz. I am the editor-in-chief of ZeldinFormer.com and while I am Technically until April 30th. You see I am moving on from ZeldinFormer after eight years at the site and Apparently I'm allowed to take this channel with me um If you didn't know ZeldinFormer is owned by the person who created, founded, owns, and operates Zeldedungeon.net An excellent website for all your Zelo walkthrough possible needs. It also has pretty in-depth wiki that might not be quite as good as Zeldewiki.org, but it's getting there and it does things a little differently But I'm not really here to pop up them too much. They're doing very well for themselves They know what they're doing Massiest as a fantastic job running a walkthrough based website And he owns and operates ZeldinFormer and they're gonna be going in a different direction So what does that leave you guys? I mean ZeldinDungeon has a YouTube channel with a hundred thousand plus subscribers is He really gonna put in the effort to keep ZeldinFormer's YouTube page and ZeldinDungeon's YouTube page ticking? Well the fact that I'm here talking to you means no, no he's not However, there is good news for all of you subscribers out there because I am not going anywhere on this channel In fact as of today as of the posting of this video I now own and operate the ZeldinFormer YouTube channel However, it's not gonna be called the ZeldinFormer YouTube channel because I don't own ZeldinFormer So it feels wrong to use their branding on this channel now I consider multitude of directions for this Maybe I should just keep it a Zeldin channel and do just you know more Zeldin goodness for you guys Which we are clearly going to be doing. However, I do run an entity called Nintendo Prime that you can find over at NintendoPrimer.net and It's a lot like ZeldinFormer except for all of Nintendo So I've decided to transition this YouTube channel into the Nintendo Prime YouTube channel Now what does this mean for you? Simply put you're going to get more content in greater variety about Well, Nintendo now there are going to be a few changes and some of these are kind of sad As an example We obviously are not going to be hosting the ZeldinFormer podcast anymore because we are no longer the ZeldinFormer channel Chances are that's going to transition over to ZeldinDungeon.net So if you follow this place for the ZeldinFormer podcast, you can go subscribe to ZeldinDungeon.net I will put a link to their place down in the description and you can enjoy the ZeldinFormer podcast over there However, that doesn't mean we're not going to have a podcast here In fact, Nintendo Prime already has an ongoing podcast hosted by me Over on our old YouTube channel, which I kind of just got rid of So we're going to be porting a lot of the old content over so for a while some of the podcast might feel a little outdated I might backdate some of the video posts and make it so it doesn't appear as a new video in your guys subscription But if you want to go back and look at old podcasts, you can However, the idea here is that the Nintendo Prime podcast is everything the ZeldinFormer podcast was and then some We obviously talk about Zelda when we talk about everything there is to do with Nintendo And that's important with the Nintendo switch on the horizon Now what else can you expect? Are we done posting about Zelda? Of course not An old series I used to run called Zelda increase is going to be coming back in a new way with a new format And that show is literally talking about nothing but Zelda and if I have it my way, that's going to be a show We put up every single week. So stay tuned for that The boss man is going to be returning as well, which is a weekly opinion show Where I kind of take a stance in fact on the Nintendo Prime old Nintendo Prime's old YouTube channel I was actually rebranding it to the chance stance. I know really lame, right? So it's nice that I have this channel now because I can reclaim my boss nam my boss man moniker and run the show under that Title again new format new way of editing new way of everything. It's going to be awesome I actually already have like the first quote-unquote episode of the rebooted boss man in editing right now Although I might have to record a new intro and outro since I called it the chance stance We'll see if I have time to edit that out But here's the change with the podcast So the Zeldin former podcast posted every Friday or almost every Friday in the past it posted every Wednesday It was an hour to an hour and a half long show the Nintendo Prime podcast is a little different So every Monday we released the full audio version over on pod bean and iTunes Okay So you can get the full one hour one hour 15 hour and a half or so Long episode over there every single Monday. However on YouTube we feel that hour and a half long videos are not necessarily the greatest way to grab attention or to really give homage to The topics we're talking about so Monday through Friday. We release each section of the podcast So our podcast at Nintendo Prime is done in five sections and each section will release one on Monday One on Tuesday one on Wednesday Thursday and finally on Friday and each one of these videos I'll have a link to the full audio podcast down in the description below now If there is a chance that you guys want the full video podcast is one single video Please let me know in the comment section on the podcast episodes So I can give you guys what you want because you are used to consuming in that way So if that's what you would desire, I would gladly oblige Obviously, I want to do right by you. So we're gonna have this other increase show going We're gonna have the boss man coming back. We're gonna replace the Zeldin former podcast with the Nintendo Prime podcast What else can you look forward to? Well, if you liked videos like the dragon break video and a whole bunch of the Zelda analysis videos We're looking to continue those videos. We're not gonna stop looking at Zelda. I have been running Zelda sites for 18 years I'm not gonna just forget all about Zelda, especially with Breath of the Wild on the horizon So we're gonna continue to make those Zelda videos In fact, we might even draw in some of your favorite youtubers whether it's HMK or Zeltik or Really anyone out there commonwealth realm heck Maybe we'll even grab someone from zeldinformer.com again to come chat with us about Zelda because that's how much we love the Zelda series However, you can also see more than just Zelda as an example I could tell you two features we have coming over from our old channel That's absolutely fantastic that hardly anyone has seen we have a nice retrospective look Kind of a late review of Super Metroid and it is an amazing video and it explains why Super Metroid Isn't great because of nostalgia It's great because of how great the game is and it goes into high detail lots of footage Lots of great conversations and that is created by Daniel the person who brought to you the dragon rake Zelda video and the last trailer analysis video So the man who you're already used to hearing his voice is just gonna have more content like that coming over We also have a content about shovel nights DLC and how fantastic that is and how that should be the future of DLC So we have a lot of really cool videos coming your way that aren't just zelda So we're gonna be expanding the horizon, but we're not gonna forget where we came from I mean, you don't see us have a dedicated Mario show every week. Do you maybe we will one day But zelda is the only dedicated show for a single franchise will have each week moving forward At least it's nice in the first evil future. So what do you guys get out of this? Takeover and I'm air-coating takeover because you guys have seen me on this channel over and over again You're just gonna see a lot more active We're gonna have a lot more videos coming out a lot more consistently and in fact it might get to the point that we actually have a video going up every day and Maybe even to the point where we have a couple videos going up every single day It really all depends on what we decide to do in the future beyond the features. I've already discussed So you might be asking yourself what the heck is Nintendo Prime in the first place? Well outside of the fact that we're a now a YouTube entity That's going to be creating a whole bunch of Nintendo related YouTube content that we hope is different enough compared to what you're used to out there We also Want to emphasize that Nintendo Prime is a community So it actually starts at Nintendo Prime that net as a website where we post news post editorials reviews Etc. And we're hoping to bring some of those reviews in video format, especially for the Nintendo switch Over to our YouTube channel. So we're hoping to have reviews and all that stuff on this channel as well But we'll have a written side to that so you can kind of enjoy both spectrums depending on how you prefer to digest Nintendo Prime is an all-encompassing community site So we're all about posting the official news our own thoughts and opinions our own analysis and things that you guys create So if you have interesting videos that you want to share if you have Interesting content or fan art or anything like that that you would like to share to us or to our community We are more than welcome to do that. In fact, there are multiple ways You can do that. You could send it into Nathan at Nintendo Prime.net. You can try to message us here on YouTube Can't guarantee I'll respond. I don't check those messages as often But um, you can also check us out on Twitter and you could DM us or add us on Twitter We are at Ninty Prime. You can also follow us on Facebook, which is Nintendo Prime Camel case style on Facebook. We just type in Nintendo Prime as two words or one word you will find us We'll be the first thing that pops up so in summary This channel is about to get a whole lot better And I hope you all choose to stick around with us because I'm still here the person you know Love that created most of the goodness you see here.
