The sequel to one of the most acclaimed beloved games of all time is almost here!!!!!

Release date: Nov 22.

Sweet limited edition bundle coming as well.

A Link Between Worlds is a spiritual sequel to ALTTP. It has the same overworld but remixed with all new dungeons, enemies, story, well its a totally new game. The main power is the painting into a wall mechanic. Other major changes include the item shop which allows you to buy all items in the game so you can approach dungeons any way you want.

This maybe the dark horse for GOTY.

(This site ruins the pics)

Reviews:

Game Infomer 10/10:

I want to let the experience roll around in my brain for a while before I decide where it ranks among the best entries in the franchise, but I can say with confidence that it should be spoken in the same breath as A Link to the Past. In every way, A Link Between Worlds is exactly what you want out of a Zelda game.

not owning a 3DS, I'd even be tempted to pick up the bundle.  But I presume that would leave me with a barebones digital copy of the game  Sad

Yes, that's what I hate about 3DS and WiiU bundles.  They just come with game pre-installed.  Not that I would have need for any more 3DSs mind you.

Can't wait for this game.  A bit alarmed though by the reports that some did everything 100% in 18.5 hours.  I expect far longer from Zelda games, even handheld ones.  But (I know I know) it's not the size ...

Listen to Wu-Tang and watch Kung-Fu

You said games, so I assumed it was all Zelda games!

I do not care what season it is. I have been eyeing the 3DS XL for some time now. I am waiting for a deal/price cut. Seeing that I was going to buy this game anyways, I might be tempted to buy this. Might!

Supposedly Gamespot gave it a 10 but then the review was taken down because of the embargo but somebody took a screen cap of it.

SUPER MARIO MAKER LEVELS:

  • SMB Mix-Up! (1AB2-0000-0047-5A7D)
  • Storm the Castle (77BD-0000-00E0-A9C0)
