2016 = the 30th anniversary of 'The Legend Of Zelda'.

In celebration of this year being the 30th anniversary, Nintendo are rewarding fans with a number of special products on the way.

‘The Legend Of Zelda: Skyward Sword’ has already launched on the Nintendo eShop for Wii U.

In Australia and New Zealand, Nintendo will be launching four special amiibo (character toys that interact with games on the Wii U and 3DS) for Zelda: 8-Bit Link, Ocarina of Time Link, Toon Link, and Zelda from The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. They’ll not only work as existing characters from the Super Smash Bros. Collection already do, but will also have special functions in ‘The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild’ when it launches next year.

On the 10th November, the Nintendo Classic Mini: Nintendo Entertainment System will launch, and the original Legend Of Zelda game will be included in this too!

Finally, if you happen to live in Sydney and are heading to the EB Expo (taking place over 30th September - 2nd October), you’ll be among the lucky who are given the chance to win a pass to experience 'The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild' Wii U demo via a series of competitions taking place on the Nintendo Australia website and at the show.

So much Zelda news!
