News The Zeldathon Adventure Kicks Off This Week To Raise a Whole Lot of Rupees
Link to the Cash

Zelda World to offer what Nintendo hasn't?
Most of the games in The Legend of Zelda series stay fairly rooted in the action-RPG genre and whilst that hasn't been detrimental to its overall quality and reputation, it does leave room for those wanting a deviation from the somewhat limited offline play for some wishful thinking. It seems a group of...
News Nintendo: We Don't Want To Remake Past Zelda Games

About The Game
The mission seems simple in this four-player competitive Zelda game: collect more Rupees than fellow players. But as players explore a massive world that spans both the Nintendo GameCube and the Game Boy Advance, they must team up to solve puzzles and defeat enemies. However, cooperative game play can be a daunting task when each person is looking out for number one! Pick up and carry rival players, use the boomerang to steal items, and prepare for heated competition with the countless items and enemies that define the Zelda series.
Features
- Control the game by connecting one to four Game Boy Advance systems to the Nintendo GameCube (no Game Pak is required for the Game Boy Advance).
- Explore cooperatively on a single television-or duck into the underground world within your Game Boy Advance to see what lurks below.
- Work together with other players to defeat enemies that go back and forth between the Nintendo GameCube and Game Boy Advance screens. Control enemies on the Nintendo GameCube by hitting switches on the Game Boy Advance screen with their swords.
- Use strategy to find out where other players are on the Nintendo GameCube screen or where they're hiding in the caverns of the Game Boy Advance. While players are inside the caves or houses, they can see secret messages on the Game Boy Advance screen or perform actions without others knowing.

Possibly the greatest co-op / competitive hybrid game ever developed. Gorgeous 2D graphics as well, and a million little references to all the previous games in the series. It's sort of a paradise for Zelda fans.
Take out the word "possibly" and I'll completely agree with you.
This is a great game, when is the NL staff going to review this game?
massive influence for NSMBWii
@warioswoods i pray you, please revise your statement removing the vulgarities.
said vulgarities are as stated: possibly and sort-of.
thank you in advance
One of my favorite Zelda games. This NEEDS to be reviewed sometime.
I WANT A VIDEO!!!
Quite possibly my favorite game in the entire series. A must have for all Zelda fans.
@George3 Easy, YouTube.
this is awesome with 4 players at noon, by dusk everyone is trying to get their GBA under direct light to see all the small secrets and switches that are hidden in a room.
unless you have 4 GBA SP brite's it is very frustrating using the GBA screen and takes away A LOT from the game.
REVIEW.NOW.
SEQUEL.NOW.
I played this game solely by myself, and based on that experience, I would have to say that this is probably my least favorite zelda game.
