Coming for die-hard Nintendo fans in time for the holidays -- a recycled edition of Zelda plus some dressed up gold and black hardware, in the form of a Nintendo 3DS XL ($220, includes a copy of the $40 Zelda game). The Legend of Zelda series has always been associated with the color gold. There was the gold-colored cartridge for The Legend of Zelda on NES and the gold box art on the recently released The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD for Wii U.In the game, the gold and black represent the two worlds depicted in The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past that ran on the Super NES. In the story Link must journey between two worlds, Hyrule and Lorule, using a mysterious power that lets him become a drawing on walls. Link�s ability to merge with walls allows players to solve puzzles and explore dungeons in a new way. Players are also able to buy or rent various items throughout the game, allowing them to explore dungeons in any order they want, adding a new level of freedom to the game play.
