Nintendo has just released The Legend Of Zelda: Anniversary Edition for free on the eShop for the next 4 days only. For discussion, have any of you already played this game and enjoyed it or did you not like it, or will this be your first time playing the game? http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2014/01/the_legend_of_zelda_four_swords_anniversary_edition_available_for_free_right_now_in_north_america (As Introvert brought up, this is for North America Only)

That's cool. Too bad Four Swords is the only Zelda game I don't like...

Just downloaded mine earlier. Never played it, and I'll probably suck at it because I'm terrible at 2D Zelda, but hey, you can't go wrong with free!

I'll always say yes to free games xD

If I don't like it, I'll just delete it :P
But it's a Legend Of Zelda game! If it's not the CDI Legend of Zelda, then I'm okay with it xD

I'm borrowing a 3Ds from a friend (which I'm using to make this post) and he already has it. I've played a bit and only have done the tutorial parts, but it's not bad so far. The tutorials are actually kind of fun. I've never played a Legend of Zelda game though so I can't fully judge.

I downloaded this right away. I've wanted to play Four Swords forever. I actually have the original GBA cartridge, but I could never play it because nobody else I knew had the system and the game. I started this almost immediately and, after some pretty quick introductory stuff, this game turned out to be pretty hard. Even knowing how to play, I found myself getting out muscled by what are normally easy-to-kill enemies from the Zelda series.

It's a real shame this is for North America only... at least for the time being. Not that I would have downloaded it, I already have this awesome game on my DSi and 3DS!

Looks like it's a limited trial and will only be playable in full for 4 days, after reading some of the fine print. :(
Really? Where'd you read that? The first time they did this back in 2011, those who downloaded it got to keep the game after the download.

Somewhere on the download page for it, I think. It was later in the night, so I don't remember the full details.

Ah! I'm downloading this now. The only LoZ games I've honestly played, and barely at that, are the first one and Twilight Princess.

I downloaded this on a DSi from a friend when it came out in 2011. Needless to say, I transferred it to my 3DS now, but the fact that they're doing it again makes me happy since I thought that not many people got it in the time it was out 2 years ago.

I haven't really played any of the Zelda games, so I'll make sure to download this at some point tomorrow for my 3DS. If it's true that it is only a 4 day free trial of the game, I'll be a little bit disappointed, but not heartbroken, since I've got a few other games occupying my time right now anyway.

Hopefully we see Nintendo do more stuff like this in the future though, especially with some of those games in the ambassador program that us late starters didn't get a chance to have.
