The Legend of Zelda (Japanese: ゼルダの伝説 Zelda no Densetsu) is a Nintendo franchise that debuted with a title on the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1986 (Japan release) and 1987 for American and European gamers. Nintendo has managed to release a title of the series for each handheld and console system, except the short-lived Virtual Boy.
Titles in the series typically follow the adventures of a young man named Link as he journeys throughout a land (often Hyrule), battling monsters to ultimately save the captive Princess Zelda, who is often being held by the wicked Ganondorf. Retellings, often with artistic liberties, of the games' plots are available through several paperback novels and mangas. Original stories can also be found as paperback novels.
Developers
Shigeru Miyamoto is known to be the primary creator of the series and its characters. He has said that he was inspired by the Lord of the Rings saga and his own exploration of caves near his childhood home. Eiji Aonuma has taken lead development roles on each game since Majora's Mask, with Miyamoto watching over the games' development to see how it goes.
Capcom and Flagship, two third-party developers, are responsible for the games which appeared on the Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance, while Nintendo of America is typically credited with creating the pseudo-minigame Link's Crossbow Training.
Three games released for the Philips CD-i were created by Animation Magic (Link: The Faces of Evil and Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon) and Viridis (Zelda's Adventure) and published by Philips Media, due to a broken deal with Philips to produce a CD-based addon to the SNES. These games are considered by most fans to not be canon and are not acknowledged as such by Nintendo, though the games' poorly-animated cutscenes have been frequently used as a source in many remixes posted on YouTube.
