Hey there!
I'm Ishaan
A contributor to Zeldapedia
I primarily research and write about real-world topics on the wiki.

About Me
  • I'm a video game localization writer and editor by profession
  • Prior to this, I was a product manager, researcher, and reporter
  • My primary interest on Zeldapedia is researching and writing about real-world topics pertaining to the Zelda games
  • This includes topics like the development history of the entire series, sales of the individual games, and developer profiles


A list of the pages I've researched, created, and continue to maintain:

Page name What it is
The Legend of Zelda - A Complete Development History The most detailed and historically accurate account of the Zelda series' long and complex development history, meticulously researched and written over a period of four years.
The Legend of Zelda - Series Sales An up-to-date database of the sales of every single Zelda game, citing information from Nintendo and the Computer Entertainment Supplier's Association (CESA) in Japan
The Legend of Zelda - Cancelled Games A list of every publicly known Zelda game that was in development (or pre-production), but never saw release.
Heroes of Hyrule A page with detailed information on the cancelled Heroes of Hyrule concept pitch by Retro Studios.
Zelda 64 Space World 1995 Tech Demo A page with information on a 3D tech demo created by programmer Giles Goddard on Nintendo 64 hardware for E3 1995.
Nintendo 64 Portal Tech Demo A page with information on a 3D tech demo created by programmer Giles Goddard as part of the R&D process for The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.


Other pages I've contributed heavily to and actively help maintain:

Page name What it is
Eiji Aonuma Developer profile for Eiji Aonuma.
Hidemaro Fujibayashi Developer profile for Hidemaro Fujibayashi.
Daiki Iwamoto Developer profile for Daiki Iwamoto.
