The Legend of Zelda Game & Watch will celebrate Zelda’s 35th Anniversary
The new handheld will be released on November 12 to celebrate Zelda’s 35th anniversary and will contain four games:
- The Legend of Zelda (NES)
- Zelda II: The Adventure of Link (NES)
- Link’s Awakening (Game Boy)
- a special version of Game & Watch title Vermin with Link replacing the Mr Game & Watch character
As part of its celebration of The Legend of Zelda’s 35th anniversary, Nintendo announced at E3 2021 a special Game & Watch system with three classic games from the long-running franchise: the 1986 original, its polarizing sequel The Adventure of Link, and the Game Boy version of Link’s Awakening. It will be available on November 12.
The handheld also includes a remake of the Game & Watch game Vermin with Link in the starring role, a playable clock, and an interactive timer as smaller diversions from the more meaty adventures listed above.
