Rumor: Skyward Sword Regular Edition Box Artwork
Posted On 30 Aug 2011 By admin
The box artwork that you see to the left is being rumored as the European box artwork that will appear for the non-special edition version of the game. This would be more inline with what Nintendo has done in recent years as Europe always gets the brighter and more colorful artwork. We saw this with [...]

Skyward Sword Could get an E10+ Rating in North America
Posted On 30 Aug 2011 By admin
Our friends over at iZelda have done some research and believe that Skyward Sword could get an E10+ rating in North America. This would be the same exact rating that Ocarina of Time 3D got when it released here in the states last June. When the box artwork for the American version was revealed yesterday, [...]

Europe Confirmed for Skyward Sword Limited Edition Bundle
Posted On 30 Aug 2011 By admin
According to Official Nintendo Magazine, which I'd say is a pretty reputable source for gaming news in the UK, the gold Skyward Sword limited edition bundle we proclaimed to high heavens yesterday is indeed coming to the region. The gold Legend Of Zelda: Skyward Sword bundle is coming to the UK and Europe when the game launches in November. Nintendo Of America announced the gold Zelda bundle yesterday and we are pleased to report that UK fans will also be able to get their hands on this special limited-edition bundle if they pre-order the game before 18 November. One thing I noticed that differs between this report and the one from Nintendo of America: the bundle is reported as pre-order only. I think it's safe to assume that this will be the case over here as well, although "limited" bundles tend to overfloweth in the States, so who knows? And yes, early adopters will still be getting that fancy Zelda Symphony CD. It's looking like a great time to be a Zelda fan worldwide! UPDATE: Other reports surfacing around the web suggest anybody on the continent should be assured that they'll be getting the bundle, too. You can see the...

Full 3DS Ambassador NES Games List Revealed, Includes Zelda II
Posted On 30 Aug 2011 By admin
By now if you're hoping to get in on the 3DS Ambassador program you must have connected to the 3DS eShop or performed the required system update for over two weeks now, so I won't bother to reintroduce it. We already knew five of the ten available NES Virtual Console games, but we've been in the dark as to what the others might be. Now we have the full list of NES Ambassador games. I'm happy to say that Zelda II: The Adventure of Link has joined the 3DS Ambassador NES Virtual Console ranks! Early 3DS adopters can now pick up both of the original Zelda games on 3DS completely free of charge. That brings the total number of Zelda games being released in some form this year up to six! See what else made the cut after the jump....

Just Reviewing My Favorite Zelda Game, Because I Can
Posted On 30 Aug 2011 By admin
2:02am US Central time on August 18 2011 and I was reading some article, by some new writer guy, at some fansite. It was then that I thought about which Zelda game is my favorite. It definitely wasn't Ocarina of Time. A Link to the Past came close, but no cigar. In fact, it wasn't even Majora's Mask. Actually, it wasn't even developed or published by Nintendo! No - not those Philips CD-I games; how dare you even mention those disgraces of which we speaketh not. The game I speak of is true quality to the max, squared, then multiplied by seven. Yes folks, the game reviewed here and now is the ultimate Legend of Zelda game. I refer, of course, to the 2005 flash game "The Legend of Zelda and the Lampshade of No Real Significance" developed by Super Flash Bros. Seriously, what else would I be referring to?...

Skyward Sword Bundle: Available in Australia
Posted On 30 Aug 2011 By admin
We’ve heard all about the amazing Skyward Sword bundle from a Nintendo of America press release, but questions quickly arose whether this would be worldwide or just limited to America. Nintendo hasn’t been very consistent with such deals in recent times, as if you recall it seemed almost every single territory got something different bundled [...]

What the Skyward Sword Limited Edition Gold Wii Remote Will Look Like in Your Hands
Posted On 30 Aug 2011 By admin
We've been posting up a storm about the new Skyward Sword limited edition bundle today, but there's one more set of images related to the offer that we haven't gotten around to yet - a gallery showing off the Gold Wii Remote Plus slated to appear with the game. You've already seen the image at left countless times before, but now you can see it alongside Nintendo's infamous hand models, as well as in a protective Wii Remote Jacket and hooked up to a Nunchuk. Now just imagine that those hands are yours... In other news, I've taken the liberty of updating our Skyward Sword homepage with a couple new features: a one-stop content page dedicated to the limited edition bundle, showing off all the images we've gathered so far as well as keeping tabs on all the retailers currently accepting pre-orders, and a list of every single exclusive article we've written about Skyward Sword. We've published quite a lot (I was a bit shocked when I saw the results myself) so check 'em out and take a trip down article archive lane. Fancy golden Wii Remotes after the jump....
