With Tri Force Heroes, you and your friends could go head-to-head in Colosseum Mode- a PvP mode playing by the rules of “whoever’s been hit/killed the least wins”. You could earn various materials for competing, with each world holding different rewards than the next. With some of the materials being exclusive to Colosseum Mode, the mode definitely has its worth.

With the announcement last week about Twilight Princess HD launching next year and the snippet of Zelda U that we saw in the Direct, many are wondering what this could mean for the future of Zelda U. Could there possibly be a “link” between the two, could we see some amiibo compatibility between the titles? Could the fact that Eiji Aonuma worked on Twilight Princess and is doing the same with Zelda U, mean that we will see similarities from…

A very interesting and humorous Zelda comic was created by Nintendo and it is called The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Hijinks. There is now a second part to the comic in which it continues on from when Link obtains the red 3DS. It is quite interesting to see what Nintendo can do to promote their games and this was definitely both a fun and creative way for them to promote Majora’s Mask 3D. Check the comic out after the jump!…
