The Charm

Nintendo has always known how to give charm to their video games from the very beginning. The following topics will go over the two main details they are well-known for to include in their titles.

The presentation in the Legend of Zelda games is truly unique and vibrant in each title. Every entry uses a different art style to immerse the player into the world. Some have a self-shaded art style, making the game look like a three-dimensional painting where you can freely move around, while others use a more life-like art style. The two-dimensional titles in the franchise use a more cartoon-like art style due to the limitations of the consoles they were available on during release. Below are some examples of each.

Loading every Zelda title with uniquely enriched music helps the game with, again, making the player feel truly immersed by setting up the tone on whichever location they are in. When it comes to music within the Zelda titles, Nintendo knows how to create lively, memorable tunes that players will enjoy throughout their adventures.
