Nintendo is gearing up for a hot Black Friday and holiday season, and this morning it sent out a press release detailing a brand new addition to the the Nintendo 3DS and 2DS family of systems that will launch just in time for the holiday. For fans of The Legend of Zelda, this is a must-own handheld. Feast your eyes on this delicious “Link Green” 2DS:

This handsome 2DS will come in a dashing shade of green, with bright orange buttons that almost seems to glow like fire arrows. The system will be offered at the standard price of $79.99, which is especially appealing since it comes pre-loaded with The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D, a modern handheld remaster of one of the best games of all time.
Wanting something a little more modern? Don’t worry, Nintendo just revealed a brand new edition of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild as well!
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild – Explorer’s Edition
We heard the rumors, and it turns out they were true! We’re finally getting an expanded edition of Breath of the Wild which, before Super Mario Odyssey came around, was the best-reviewed game of the year. You can read our Breath of the Wild review right here. Take a look at this gorgeous new release:
The Explorer’s Edition, per the press release, is “a bundle that includes the critically acclaimed and award-winning Nintendo Switch game, a 100-page explorer’s guide and a two-sided map at a suggested retail price of $59.99. The included guide and map are great for people new to the series, as well as people who haven’t yet had the opportunity to dive into the massive adventure.”
Keep in mind that while this edition of the game does come with extra goodies, you’ll still need to purchase the Season Pass separately if you want all of the extra DLC. Don’t worry, though: Nintendo does DLC the right way, and it’s always affordable. The entire pass is only $20.
Nintendo isn’t done yet! Here are more holiday highlights from this mornings release.
