Get The Legend of Zelda: The Four Swords Anniversery for free from 9/28/11 (today) - 2/20/12.

Open to all Nintendo DSi, Nintendo DSi XL, and Nintendo 3DS users with access to WiFi internet.

Guess it has a new single player mode. I don't remember if it had that before or not because I played the original with friends but it's there. Or play it the way it was meant to be played, with friends. Though I don't know if it has internet play, probably just local play.

Anyway it's a great free game for anyone with one of the systems.

I thought they were the same game but I don't really remember either.

I was playing it with a friend earlier... what is it about Nintendo co-op games that makes you into an asshole? Everytime there's a hole, I would pick up my friend and toss him in.

Oh the Four Swords on the GCN is different in that it featured a different campaign. On the GBA, you fight Vaati or whatever and on the GameCube you fight Dark Link.

I think I had both versions too. I still have the link cables in a drawer somewhere. It was pretty hard to get people to play it together though.

It looks like this new version has 7 extra stages. I don't remember the Realm of Memories being there the first time.

Anyone had a chance to play this with friends? I still haven't met anyone that has it on their DSi or 3DS and lives near me... I remember playing on the GameCube and loving it, but that was way back when I had neighbors my age and they liked playing games too.

Hahaha, Jim you dick! I remember doing that and then my friend ripped his Game Boy Advance away as he stormed out of my house. Nearly broke my damn GBA link cable.
