A Peek At The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds Cartridge Art

The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds and its amazing 3DS XL bundle are set to hit store shelves in less than two weeks. With the release date fast approaching, Nintendo is revving up their ad campaign and spoilers are starting to leak out.

With A Link Between Worlds Nintendo plans to shake things up a bit. The latest installment will go off the beaten path with non-linear gameplay and originally featured the Nintendo Network logo on its boxart – which led me to wonder if Four Swords would see a return – but it looks like it has been removed.

While we’ve seen the boxart, the cartridge art has remained a mystery – until now. Jose Otero, Associate Editor at IGN, sent out a tweet featuring the elusive art for all the world to see. As Zelda Dungeon points out, Link usually isn’t featured on the cartridge, but for the latest game in the series he managed to pop in for an appearance. Have a look for yourself:

                  And I didn’t realize until now the reversible art was only available in                                      Europe. pic.twitter.com/vgBMNgNrDj

Although the cartridge itself isn’t gold, the art is very nice! What do you think? When I finally get my hands on it I’ll be writing up various guides, so let me know what you want to see in the comments below!

Thanks Courtney for the tip!
