Details About How Zelda Will Be Played At The Nintendo World Championships

The Nintendo World Championships will be held this Sunday, June 14th at 6pm EST. As we have shared with you already, The Legend of Zelda will be one of the titles played in the competition, and now we have some details as to how that will happen. The participants will have to complete a speedrun from the beginning of the game and reach the end of the first dungeon. The contestant that raises up the Triforce piece first will be declared the winner. Pretty poignant, in my opinion! We have also learned that two of the winners of the Nintendo World Championships from 1990 will be in attendance as quests of honor, head past the jump to check out who they are.

Jeff Hansen won the competition in the 11 and under category and Thor Aackerlund was the winner in the 12-17 category.
