o,
you're looking for other Legend of Zelda sites. As you may have already
guessed from the title, this is the place where you'll find pretty comprehensive
guide to many of the websites on the net. While you probably won't ever
find one as good as this, a little wishful thinking on our part, there
are plenty of other excellent Zelda pages out there. Just so you wont
waste your time, as there are many sites that may not suit your needs,
we have compiled a list of the top pages for you to choose from.
Independent Zelda
This
is a site that I've gotten into over the duration of my absence.
This site is an original webcomic site that features manga-like
representations of the original Legend of Zelda game and also The
Wind Waker. The artist is absolutely phenomenal; she has blown my
mind away with her work, and on top of that she's just simply a
nice person too. Also while you're there, check out the fanart of
both her and those that visit Indie Zelda along with the Oekaki
drawing boards that she has off the site. An absolute must visit! |
The Legends of Zelda
Now
this is an absolutely beautifully designed site, one of my favorites
when it comes to eye candy. But a good site isn't based on looks
alone, and The Legends of Zelda definitely has great content to
boot. They got several nice articles about a variety of Zelda topics,
paradoxes, theories, and more. Of course, they have their Hyrule
storyline and information on all the games up to the latest Zelda
game. Another good site to see. |
History of Hyrule
History
of Hyrule is one of those sites that has just a little bit of everything
Zelda. In tandem with Zelda no Densetsu, History of Hyrule is also
on a quest to translate the Japanese Zelda manga to English for
us to enjoy. Along with that comes a great amount of official Zelda
artwork and her own drawings as well. The focus of the site is primarily
on the older games, but don't let that scare you away. It's a nice
site to visit all in all.
|
Desert
Colossus
A
site that has been well-known on the Zelda frontier but has only
recently come back to us. The site might seem small at first, but
once you take a deeper look, you will find a great deal of detail
within. From contests to Zelda theory, comic strips and more, this
oldie but newbie is sure to impress even the Zelda fanatic. |
ZeldaBlog
ZeldaBlog
is another one of those sites that takes a different and radical
approach to the Zelda community. ZeldaBlog is a community site that
is by run the Zelda community for the Zelda community. Webmasters
and respected individuals throughout the community offer up commentary
and editorials, and it also serves as a means to link other sites
together and unify the community as a whole. ZeldaBlog is administered
by The Missing Link. |
Spencer's
Ocarinas
Looking
for a good gift idea for the perfect Zelda fan? Look no further!
Spencer's Ocarinas will make an excellent addition into any
fan's collection. These are perhaps the nicest ocarinas that
I've ever found in the community, and they are absolutely beautiful
both in look and in sound. If you're interested in purchasing
for one, feel free to read my
review.
|
ZeldaRadio
(new!)
This
is a site that I think is one of the most ingenious sites on the
web! Sponsored by Ice from Ice's Zelda Central, this is a site where
many webmasters are joining forces to contribute to producing periodic
radio programs. The radio programs are full of comedy, news, music,
editorials, and more! If you haven't tuned into the archived radio
programs on the site, you're definitely missing out! So go
visit ZeldaRadio! |
Legend
of Zelda.com
Here's
another site that's been on the web for quite some time! They're
pretty much a site that has it all, catering to a variety of interests
in the community. They've got all of the standard features of most
Zelda sites with game information and interactive media, but few
go above and beyond the call of duty like this one; not only do
they have a timeline to rival TGA's, but also a Zelda Dance, inspired
from the original Hampster Dance. It's definitely one of my picks.
|
Hylian
Revolutions
The
Zelda community is full of a great variety of websites out there,
but despite that, there's no other website out there quite like
Hylian Revolutions. Unlike most websites, they don't rely upon
fancy graphics or unnecessary content. Instead, they're strictly
about the promotion of the Zelda spirit, and their goal is to
keep the spirit alive by honoring the websites out there that
focus upon that feeling. This is a great network to be a part
of, and if you're looking for that deep feeling that's been lost
in the Zelda community, this is the place to search first!

Triforce MUCK
Think you've seen every Zelda site on the web? This site will
prove you wrong, hands down. This site is for the true Zelda diehard
fan, the one that lives and breathes Hyrule, that craves it as
if it were part of their very soul. This site lets you experience
the magic of Hyrule firsthand. This site is the website of a large
roleplaying community that centers upon the Legend of Zelda and
Hyrule. Yes, that's right. You can actually interact with the
members of Hyrule and other users that share the same home. Feeling
creative enough to be a member of the community and play along?
Visit this site. The game is located at telnet://dovienya.net:6118.

Zeldafront
RPG Stone
Got that hankering to live the Zelda experience yet just can't find
enough people to share your fantasy? This site is the answer to
your prayers. This site is just begging to pull you into its clutches,
asking for you to throw away the concerns of the real world and
delve into the realm of Hyrule. This site is a forum roleplaying
game all about the world of Hyrule. It's got it all there: rich
worlds, the opportunity to meet new faces, and above all to explore
make Hyrule a real place within your mind. This is a great place
to go for the hardcore Zelda fans, and I sincerely recommend you
visit it just to see what it's about! |
|
Zelda
Romance
This
site is currently is in development, but it has a lot of talent
behind its creation. Zelda Romance hopes to solve the undying
question of who Link's love is—Marin and Malon. Don't worry
if you aren't in tune with that though; they'll support any opinions
there. Right now, all they have is a set of forums, but judging
from the artwork that I've seen there, once it opens it will be
simply amazing!
|
Exploding
Deku Nut
Now this is an impressive Zelda site; it's rare to find a breath
of fresh air nowadays, but EDN seems to do it. They're focused on
quality across the board, no matter what feature of Zelda they're
highlighting. One of their biggest pushes is to add humor into Zelda,
to make our love for the series light-hearted yet deeper all the
same. Their passion, however, is as serious as any, and they seek
to provide high-quality fun everywhere they go. |
Ganon's Tower
A
pretty good site if I do say so myself. They've got a wide variety
of things to whet the Zelda fanatics appetite. They've got an extensive
art gallery, covering everything from fan art to official art and
even more. They have many downloads in store, including videos,
wallpapers, and even games made by Zelda fans. |
Zelda
Domain
An rather new Zelda site that features a growing dictionary
of all things Zelda, editorials and reviews, and a collection
of information for all the games released and unreleased. Inside
those you will find walkthroughs, screenshots, and for a select
few - the record holding speed runs for each respective game.
|
Rauru's
Return
Within the vast list of Zelda sites, occasionally you find a rare
gem, and Rauru's Return is one of those rare gems. At first, it
looks like a lot of websites, but when you sift through it, you'll
find things that even some of the biggest sites don't have! There
are Zelda fonts, a Zelda jukebox to listen to your favorite hits,
an Oekaki for drawing, and perhaps one of the most complete media
galleries I've seen, complete with rare Zelda books! It's a must
see! |
Kasuto.net
An up and coming site that seems very promising in terms of game
content, interactive media, but above all -- magic! They have some
of the most rare and magical sections that I have ever seen. Ever
want to learn the Hylian language? There you can! And they also
have a good collection of games available for download. A must visit!
Two thumbs up!
|
North
Castle
North
Castle is perhaps one of the oldest Zelda webistes in the entire
community, predating even TGA. Though it may look older than the
newer sites, don't let that fool you. It it one of the most complete
archives for the older Zelda games, up through Link's Awakening,
as well as Zelda memorabilia. It also has a huge collection of fanart
and fanfiction, some of which cannot be found anywhere else in the
community. If you want to go in depth into Zelda as well as the
community, there's no better place than North Castle. |
The
Written Legend
Some
sites truly find themselves in a league of their own, and I've not
seen a site quite like this. At first it looks like a traditional
site for fan content, but this site is far from that. This site
allows its visitors to explore the legends and myths of the Zelda
series so that Hyrule might come alive within each and every fan.
This site highlights fans' theories on the Zelda series, fictional
stories from the realm of Hyrule, and even comedic sketches and
farces! There's a lot of potential and fun to be had, so it's well
worth the visit! |
Perfect Zelda
Like Zelda? Speak French? If you do, Perfect Zelda is the site for
you! Perfect Zelda is the like all of the English Zelda sites out
there, covering everything from fanart and fanfiction to game material,
interactive material to the newest Zelda news. If you're looking
to check out a Zelda site outside of America, or even if you're
just hoping to bone up on your foreign language skills, head overseas
to the French world of Zelda! |
Zelda Infinite
There's always a good Zelda site around the corner, and Zelda Infinite
is one of those. This one has quite a bit of stuff, and it's still
growing as the months stroll by! It's got fanart, game information,
wonderful walkthroughs and maps, polls, news, downloads, and even
a sketch board for those artists out there as well as a collection
of the rare Zelda mangas, translated into English for the non-Japanese
readers! This site seems like it's going places, and I'm looking
forward to seeing where they go with this. |
Zelda
Gaiden
This site is a very unique site! Zelda Gaiden is still in development,
but the plans they have are absolutely amazing! They intend to produce
mini-TV shows about Zelda using a mod for the game Halo.
(Not every day Zelda and Microsoft fit into the same sentence!)
This will be a site to keep on your radar in the days to come! |
ZRPG
Roleplaying in Hyrule is not something that usually is taken to
this level. ZRPG has an entire forum dedicated to it! With over
180 characters approved on their server, the world of Hyrule will
never be the same as you interact among the various locales in the
Hyrulian Kingdom! It's worth going there to see! |
Ice's
Zelda Central
One
of the oldest Zelda sites on the web has returned. Ice's Zelda Central
is coming back after a long absence in the community, and Ice is
slowly rebuilding his empire to what it once was. They have information
about the Zelda sountracks for all the games, and there articles
as well both about the Legend of Zelda as well as the community.
One truly hasn't experienced the community without IZC. |
Chronicles
of Hyrule
This is a self-contained forum site whose population seems to be
becoming quite strong. It seeks to imbue its visitors with the sense
of everything Hyrule. From extensive discussion about the games
to talking about fanworks and art, from roleplaying within the realm
of Zelda's kingdom to just goofing around, forums are an excellent
way to get in touch with other Zelda fans, and Chronicles of Hyrule
is a great place to make new friends. |
Zelda
Dungeon
Zelda
Dungeon is one of the older websites in the Zelda community, but
it shows its age remarkably well! They've got detailed information
on every game for the Nintendo consoles. They're also big on fan
content too, even going beyond the premise of fanart and fanfiction
to create fantheories, where fans postulate about parts of the world
called Hyrule. With MP3 soundtracks, official art, and the elusive
Zelda cartoon, this site has something for everyone! |
Legend
of Zelda Online
Now
here's a site you don't see every day. The goal of this site isn't
about providing Zelda walkthrough information or fanfiction or what
have you. This site is all about community; that's right. The goal
is to provide a game-like setting with many people communicating
with one another for the purpose of sharing experiences and just
talking about the Legend of Zelda. It's still a young site, but
I expect big things out of it! |
Hyrulian
War
Another out-of-the-box Zelda website, and it's perhaps sites like
these that really epitomize the fandom of Zelda. Ever wanted to
experience roleplaying to the extreme? At Hyrulian War, the combatants
of this forum war it out to see which race of the land will reign
supreme over the others. If you're looking to experience adventure
outside the games or if you're just interested in roleplaying in
general, this is the place for you. |
Hyrule
Realm
Here's another of those websites that refuses to think inside the
box. Hyrule Realm isn't yet as big as they come, but it's on its
way at the very least. Hyrule Realm promotes style over substance,
attempting to bring you into the atmosphere of Zelda before you
even enter the site. It attempts to involve you with the Hyrulian
language, artwork, and handicraft from the games. In all, it's definitely
a site every fan should visit at least once! |
Hyrule.net
This site is coming along. It's got a lot of missing information,
but on the other hand, I like to think of it as a lot of ambition
and room to grow! Hyrule.net does have a lot of the standard information--game
information, artwork, and so on--but they've also got a couple of
odds and ends that would be very hard to find elsewhere, like a
bit of sheet music, information on the rare Zelda cartoon series,
and more. The adventure continues where you least expect it! |
Gamehiker
Sites
that aren't strictly about Zelda usually don't make it on the Links
list, but Masamune runs a very fine site, and it's definitely worth
going to. Gamehiker covers nearly all of the major Nintendo characters,
from Mario to Pikmin and Advance Wars, and it's got the biggest
encyclopedia, official art collection, and game information database
that I've ever seen on a Nintendo fansite. It's also got a huge
interactive section as well. Please, head over there right away! |
Just
Zelda
This site has started pretty small, but it's slowly growing and
moving in the direction of the big players in the community. They've
got an interesting collection of stuff here, ranging from art and
fiction all the way to games and sprites, covering the entire fanstuff
universe. Their big feature is the Neverending Story, where fans
can direct a community Zelda fanfiction each week in their own direction.
All in all, it's a nice website! |
Zelda Vortex
Yet another very good Zelda site, I must admit. It's just about
got it all. Information on Zelda games, glamourous artwork, intriguing
fan fiction, but that's not even the half of it. The two parts that
got me were a quick text-based game to the old Spaceworld 2K Zelda
demo, which is just about as intense as the demo itself. But even
better are their featured "special investigations" on
Zelda mysteries and myths. Quite a good site! |
Zelda
News Online
(new!)
Here's a very interesting site that has just crept online. Pretty
much, it's a basic news site for the Zelda updates as well as updates
throughout the community! It's presented in a blog format, which
is a very unique format for websites in the community. It's definitely
worth a visit! |
Zelda
Elements
(new!)
Zelda
Elements is a once forgotten site that has finally come back to
the community. It's got tons of information about the games as well
as editorial information and several intriguing interactive features.
It's still getting back on its feet a bit, but I expect good things
out of this place, so check it out! |
Other
Legend of Zelda Sites
Yup. Aside from the websites listed above, there are others. Really?
Some websites below are new, and you just might here more about them
in the future, while others are, umm, lets just say they're there. Hey,
who knows. You might even find something you like. How will you know?
I dunno, try clicking through. Oh, and if you'd like your site listed
either below, or above, click here.
