Zelda deck of cards

Deviantart user Nelde has designed some playing cards each with some beautiful art inspired from The Legend of Zelda. Not only that, but Fangamer is selling decks of these Zelda playing cards for $15 (or 15 rupees), so you can become a Hyrulian cardshark at your next game of Texas Hold ‘Em. However, fair warning, but the crew at Fangamer mentions that they may not be able to ship orders until May.

Despite the wait, the designs of these playing cards are sure to be worth a purchase for any Zelda fan. Aside from the obvious designs of Link, Princess Zelda, Ganondorf, and the Triforce in the deck, the Gorons, Zoras, Skull Kid, and even Zant make an appearance. Hopefully Nelde will design more Nintendo-specific playing cards in the future. Maybe Metroid? Mario? Star Fox? The list goes on.

Now excuse me, but my Hyrulian Royal Flush I just drew is about to garner me a pot full of rupees.

I Can’t Stop Thinking About New Legend of Zelda

I Can’t Stop Thinking About New Legend of Zelda

We know that a brand-new Zelda game is coming to the 3DS. I hope it is New Legend of Zelda.

Some time ago, a Swapnote message was sent to 3DS owners from Aonuma thanking them for playing Ocarina of Time. The message ended with “I hope you’re looking forward to New Legend of Zelda games!” That capital N in “New” has a hold on my brain and won’t let go. “New” Legend of Zelda? The same “New” that brought Mario back to his 2D roots? It could have been a typo, but just the mere suggestion that Nintendo is working on a Zelda game rooted in its old style 2D gameplay is enough to get me excited. Toss in the fact that Miyamoto has been toying with 2D Zelda gameplay on the 3DS, and I’m in full-on rabid fanboy mode.
