See the gallery below for pictures of each card set. This set of Zelda playing cards may look familiar to some, as they have been sold by Nintendo before. I myself picked up a pack from the Nintendo World store in New York sometime after Skyward Sword’s release. So, any European fans who might’ve missed them in the past should make sure to snag them before My Nintendo’s stock runs out.
What do you think of these Nintendo-themed card sets? Are there any other Nintendo properties or specific Zelda titles you’d like to see Hanafuda or playing cards made for? Share your thoughts in the comments!
