One of Nintendo’s greatest series–The Legend of Zelda–had its 25th anniversary end just two days ago, and while the celebration may not be quite over just yet, these past two days have given everyone some time to reflect on just what an amazing year we’ve all had as Zelda fans.
It’s Wednesday and that means it’s another- Wait. It’s Thursday? Oh, dear. Looks like I forgot to post about the Zelda News video yesterday.
