The future of the smaller, quainter 2D Zelda games seems to be in question now that there's no dedicated handheld-only console, but never fear! We're keeping the hope alive by detailing things we would want to see from a new top-down 2D adventure! Everything is on the table as we look at things that games like A Link Between Worlds, Tunic, and Blossom Tales did well to get an idea of what we want. A new art style? Must have!

Welcome to 2024! We're getting the year started off on the right foot by doing what we do best: basely speculating! We look forward to the end of 2024 and talk about which, if any, Zelda games we could see released and what scenario's would lead to that. Of course, the elephant in the room that will determine so much in 2024 is the Switch 2 and when it might be revealed and released, so we also spend some time covering our thoughts on that.
