Overview
The Game & Watch: The Legend of Zelda system was announced during the E3 2021 Nintendo Direct.[3] The system includes three games from The Legend of Zelda series: the first The Legend of Zelda, The Adventure of Link, and the original Link's Awakening from the Game Boy. All three games also allow for the option to play in terms of English or Japanese (meaning one can play either the NES versions of The Legend of Zelda and The Adventure of Link or the Famicom versions of the same).
