Of course, with an IP as iconic and nostalgic as Zelda, it is hard to go wrong. Characters like Link and Zelda are some of the most well-known characters not just in gaming, but entertainment as a whole. This is evident not just by how successful the games are, but the success beyond gaming. For example, Zelda merchandise is some of the more popular Nintendo merchandise. And the latest Zelda merchandise is set to be free.ย
More specifically, Nintendo has revealed that it will soon release a Wanted Poster Tote Bag, complete with a Zelda design, via My Nintendo North America. And all Nintendo fans will need to claim it for free is to redeem 1,200 Platinum Points. When exactly this will be released, and how much stock there is of it, remains to be seen. Nintendo notes it is coming soon, but that is all it notes.
The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is available via the Nintendo Switch and the Nintendo Switch only. For more coverage on the new Nintendo Switch game, click here.
“The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom doesn’t quite manage to deliver the level of freedom seen in 3D entries like Tears of the Kingdom, but it’s hard to complain about some rigid puzzle elements when the game has opened things up so much. Clearly, Nintendo’s developers are looking for ways to blend the new and old, and this is another part of that journey. The Echo system is a pleasure to use, the world is more attractive than the last Zelda game, and there’s a lot of content in this package. The result is a 2D Zelda game perfectly tailored for fans that first discovered the series with Breath of the Wild. That said, whether you’re a longtime Zelda fan, or someone newer to the series, Echoes of Wisdom is a bold step forward for the 2D entries in the franchise. It took decades for Zelda to have a great game to call her own, but the result is worth celebrating.”
