Story, control, and gameplay ideas for a Zelda reboot.

In celebration of the series' 25th anniversary, a special edition 3DS will hit stores later this month.
Nintendo of Europe announced today that a limited edition Ocarina of Time-themed 3DS will hit store shelves in Europe on November 25. The black system will be trimmed in gold and feature the Zelda series logo on the top of the system, as well as a themed border featuring ocarinas around the edges. Included in the box is not only the special system, but a copy of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D.
