'''The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures''' is a game for the [[Nintendo GameCube]]. It is the second game in The Legend of Zelda series to have multiplayer. Each player needed a [[Gameboy Advance]] and link cable to connect to the Nintendo GameCube. One player mode could also be used with both the GameCube and the Gameboy Advance, or just a GameCube controller could be used and the Gameboy Advance screen displayed on the main television. | '''The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures''' is a game for the [[Nintendo GameCube]].

There are two separate ways to play Four Sword Adventures: Hyrulean Adventure and Shadow Battle. Hyrulean Adventure goes through the main storyline and can be played one player as well as multiplayer, and Shadow Battle is a free-for-all multiplayer. | ||
Four Sword Adventures changed many things in the typical Zelda formula. Levels were now separated into areas, and were not part of a connecting overworld. Levels could also be redone multiple times on a single game file, something that had never been present in the series before. | |||

===Intro=== | |||
One stormy day, [[Princess Zelda]] begins to worry about the seal upon the evil wind mage, [[Vaati]]. She invites her childhood friend [[Link]] to accompany her while she checks upon it with the six [[shrine maidens]]. | |||
The maidens begin using their powers to check the seal on the legendary [[Four Sword]]. At first everything seems fine, but then a portal appears and a [[Shadow Link|a shadowy version of Link]] appears. Suddenly, all of the maidens are trapped within crystals. Shadow Link jumps back into the portal, but Link follows him. The portal leads to the Four Sword Sanctuary. Even though Link knows that the seal upon Vaati would be broken, the Four Sword is his only hope of getting the maidens back, so he draws the sword. Link then splits into four different versions of himself. | |||
Shadow Link disappears, and dark energy begins pouring out of the Four Sword pedestal, catching the attention of the four Links. A tornado sweeps them high up into the air, and Vaati appears. | |||
Not only has Shadow Link sealed away the seven maidens, but Vaati's magic has robbed the power to defeat darkness from the Four Sword. The Links must rescue the maidens, all the while collecting [[Force Gem]]s to restore the power of the sword. | |||
