Deliver it again, Nintendo

With a full suite of Tremendous Mario Sport Boy Advance titles hitting the Nintendo Change, it’s very easy to perk up and go “however what about that [X] different GBA factor I favored?” That system had so many bangers it’s practically unimaginable to maintain observe of all of them, however one that actually wormed its means into my coronary heart forevermore is The Legend of Zelda: A Hyperlink to the Previous and 4 Swords: emphasis on the 4 Swords bit.

This little sub-franchise ended up having a comparatively lengthy (albeit area of interest) lifespan, because it was introduced again in anniversary type on the DS and the 3DS for a restricted time. However what in regards to the still-trapped-on-GameCube basic Zelda: 4 Swords Adventures? Effectively, we is likely to be ready a bit longer for that one, which is a disgrace.

Watch our video on why Zelda: 4 Swords Adventures is so particular

So what’s the impetus for all this 4 Swords speak (apart from, I don’t know, a large Zelda launch)?
Effectively, the Destructoid video staff has cooked up a beautiful little retrospective on 4 Swords Adventures, and it’s positively price a watch. I’ve quite a bit of private expertise with this oddball challenge, full with the complete setup of the GameCube hub + Sport Boy Advance controllers. At launch, I spent your entire weekend at my buddy’s home taking part in it, internet hosting numerous different individuals who dropped in and dropped out as we continued to forge onward. Years later we reunited for 4 Swords Anniversary on the DS, and it felt so good.

On condition that 4 Swords Adventures got here out in 2004 and has by no means seen the sunshine of day on one other system; it is smart that lots of people doubtless wouldn’t have performed it, or solely heard its identify in whispers. Should you can’t get a duplicate of it, no less than you may relive these glory days by proxy with the video above!
