My disdain for you all knows no bounds.

I'm excited for this, but I have to say this one more time...

The existence of this game is a complete paradox to me. How in the world did somebody convince Nintendo executives to let an indie developer touch one of their IPs and make a crossover?

I can't be bothered to find the article but the story is crazier than you'd think. IIRC the devs wanted to maybe add a Zelda character as DLC for their next Necrodancer game, but when they asked Nintendo about it they were instead asked "why don't you just make it a Zelda game?"

it was Nintendo's idea

e: beaten

Miyamoto and Aonuma actually played Crypt of the Necrodancer and found it really addictive. So they were already on board with the game before they were approached about Zelda DLC.
