So nostalgia, such wow. Damn. Looks like we're all going to be playing Zelda come holiday season after all, but just not the one we originally anticipated. The mini-NES will be sold at $60, and come pre-installed with 30 classic games.
It’ll also come ready with an HDMI cable, a power adapter, and what Nintendo's now calling an NES Classic Controller, “patterned after the iconic design of the original NES controller.” It’ll be out in stores on November 11.

DresdenCodak decided to draw concept art for a game where Zelda is the protagonist. Here's what he has to say about it:
"Inspired by Anita Sarkeesian's Video Game Tropes vs Women, Clockwork Empire is set 2,000 years after Twilight Princess, and is not a reboot, but simply another iteration in the Zelda franchise. This concept work is meant to show that Zelda as a game protagonist can be both compelling and true to the franchise."
