Today I finished what may be one of the finest Zelda adventures yet in Skyward Sword, and to celebrate this edition of Nintentunes is all Zelda, all the time! This time we will travel through the handheld versions of the Zelda franchise which contain fantastic music in their own right.

Gameboy – Avenging Spirit [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0zHi1IwuIo[/youtube] One of my favorite elements of the Nintendo download services is the ability to download classic games. When the eShop Gameboy version of Avenging Spirit was released a few months ago for the 3DS eShop, I may have been one of the few people jumping for joy and looking for my credit card to put down the 3 ...

Quick! Head over to the Nintendo eShop or DSiWare Shop to download The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Anniversary Edition for free before it’s too late!

Gameboy – X [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTzPj_RcIy4[/youtube] One of the great things about Nintendo handhelds circa 2008 was their ability to play games from other regions without having to worry about the game being region locked.

What will the 3DS bring to gaming?
3D technology is nothing new, it has been around in some form or another since the late 1890s. Yeah, shocked me as well when I realized that 3D viewing tech has been around for over a century. 3D isn’t even new to the world of video games as the SEGA Master System used glasses to achieve the 3D effect. So what sets the 3DS apart from everything else? Well hit the jump and I’ll be happy...

In less than four weeks, Nintendo will be hosting a press event in New York City. There will be hands on demos and a presentation by Reggie.

Hopefully it’ll be close to or even before the Japanese release date of February 26th, but also hopefully less than the nearly $300 price tag (once you...
