Video game reviews, fan fiction, gaming news, and more! Since 2003. We especially love JRPGs, RPGs and the best of the rest. Never Ending Realm: Where your favorite games live forever!
Twenty years ago, I was 17 years old, and had an extreme passion with playing JRPGs and reviewing them in written form. In reality, some of my oldest reviews were written way before 2003, and on an actual ‘word processor’ typewriter. Reviews for games like Suikoden, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and Final…
Chapter 11 Hebra (present) Manzyl had been riding for two days and nearly two nights, without rest. His trek had begun in Castle Town with the order of delivering a letter written by Impa herself directly into the hands of the highest ranking officer at Hyrule’s small stone fort located at the Hebran border….
Given the massive commercial (over 26 million copies sold) and critical success of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Nintendo’s 35-year-old franchise has never been more popular than it is today. Thus, the news of a delay for its sequel has caused some disappointment amongst fans. Nintendo Shares Drop 6% After News The…
When it comes to big releases like The Legend of Zelda, Nintendo usually keeps a very low profile, and details of the games (leaked to the press) are kept at a bare minimum until the titles are closer to their release date. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2 has followed Nintendo’s modus…
Let’s forget, for a moment, that Nintendo’s Nintendo Switch Online subscription service is filled with first party Nintendo games that are arguably better than any JRPG in history (Super Mario, Metroid and The Legend of Zelda can’t be beaten). Hardcore JRPG fans do not want to hear that, however. They want to know if paying…
Here at Never Ending Realm, we love JRPGs and the music that accompanies them. A special place in this writer’s heart is the classic tunes of The Legend of Zelda: A Link to The Past. I remember playing this SNES JRPG and loving every minute of it, especially the memorable music. My favorite track from…
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time will turn 23 years old in just 3 days, and thus, there has been no better time to reminisce, and discuss, what perhaps is Zelda’s most important entry on this edition of Throwback Bit Thursday. The topic? The game’s story, and how Miyamoto (and Nintendo EAD) approached some…
Before we go any further, I want to make clear that these numbers were pulled out of Wikipedia (in large part), so some of these tallies might be either inaccurate or not up to date. An example of this is the Assassin’s Creed sales tally. The game had sold 155 million units prior to Assasin’s…
A strange topic of discussion has arisen over the past couple of decades within gaming forums: The dispute of whether or not, The Legend of Zelda (series) should be classified as an Action-RPG (which would make it a Japanese RPG), or an Action Adventure, or perhaps, both. The argument has driven many to question whether…
Game for Game, The Legend of Zelda is my favorite video gaming series. I don’t think I have ever handed out as many 10/10, and 9.5/10 to as many games in any other series. My favorite game of all time is a Zelda game (Ocarina of Time). My favorite gaming universe of all time is…
