With the release of the [[Nintendo Switch]] Online Service, a piece of software allows the user to play games originally released for the Nintendo Entertainment System. Included with the first selection of games was ''The Legend of Zelda'', which was simultaneously released on September 19th, 2018 (September 18th in the Americas). In this version, two players are able to play together, where one player controls Link, and the other can view the gameplay. The two players can switch roles at any time. | |||
As a follow up to the release of the original game, on October 10th, 2018 (October 9th in the Americas) a 'Special Edition' was added to the NES online app, on the Switch. This version of the game is aimed towards newer players, as Link starts the game with 6 hearts, 255 Rupees, 9 Keys, 8 Bombs, as well as certain items, including the White Sword, the Magical Shield, the Blue Ring, and more. This version of the game is dubbed ''The Legend of Zelda - Living the life of luxury!'' A red banner is omnipresent on the border of the game, denoting that it is the special edition. The description given to the game is as follows: | |||

You’ll begin with all equipment, including the White Sword, the Magical Shield, the Blue Ring, and even the Power Bracelet. But if Ganon’s still giving you a hard time, the power of money will overcome! Just buy yourself some more items and give it another shot! Beating the game once grants you access to a more difficult version of the game called Second Quest.|Nintendo Entertainent System - Nintendo Switch Online Official Description}} | |||
