Nintendo of Australia officially announces The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword bundle

GN Version 4.0
2011 is the year of Zelda with Nintendo celebrating 25 years since the beginning of the critically-acclaimed franchise. The Legend of Zelda was first released on the Nintendo Entertainment System a quarter of a century ago this year, and to help celebrate this occasion Nintendo are releasing a special limited edition bundle for the latest instalment in The Legend of Zelda franchise, The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword.

The special limited edition bundle features a copy of the game, the music CD featuring selected songs from The Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary Symphony, and a rare golden* Wii Remote Plus controller bearing the Hylian Crest. You'll need to be quick off the mark, as this limited edition is only available while stocks last.

For those that miss out, also available for a limited time only will be a copy of the game, The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword and the music CD (no Wii Remote Plus controller). The stand-alone game of The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword will be available following the release of the two limited edition versions.

Games in The Legend of Zelda series invite players to explore vast environments, solve puzzles and battle enemies in a fantasy world. The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword continues this tradition, but transforms the experience by using the Wii Remote Plus controller to offer even more precise control.

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword release date and price will be announced on a future date.

* Note that the golden Wii Remote Plus will simply be golden in colour and will not contain any actual precious metals
