Nintendo Announces New Nintendo 2DS XL Hylian Shield Edition
A little bit of cool news from Nintendo this morning as the company announced they would be releasing a New Nintendo 2DS XL this July with a special Hylian Shield Edition that will come with The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds. The small catch to this release is that it will be a GameStop exclusive item, going for $160 at retail. Here's the company's description of the game set to be pre-installed.
The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds is a sequel to the beloved Super NES game The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. In this follow-up, Link must once again save the kingdom of Hyrule from an evil force by transforming into a living painting and crossing into a dark parallel world. Conquer puzzles, traps and hidden rooms of deadly dungeons to save both worlds from certain doom!
If you're a Zelda fan, this is basically a massive must-own item. The only thing they could have done to make this console pop more would have been to decorate the inside with some additional designs from the series. The handheld console will be available in stores starting on July 2nd, and like a lot of DS units, we're guessing it will be a limited run.
