## Resource

Our month-long celebration of The Legend of Zelda continues as we continue our discussions on the game that started it all! This week we'll be definitively ranking every dungeon. For our rankings we'll be breaking down the unique challenges that each level offers to players, the naming conventions for each level and how we feel about the dungeon layouts, the first time appearances of enemies and items, and so much more! Come join us as we dive right in to the original Zelda dungeons! All this, PLUS some Super Bowl / Winter Olympics discussion and our thoughts on the recent Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase!
