Zelda Link's Awakening DX was my first Zelda game, so I might get this just for nostalgia's sake. Although the price does seem a bit high for a GBC game.

£5.40? Does Nintendo know you can easily emulate this stuff?

Add me on anything. I'm always looking for new friends/opponents/town visitors/chances to appear more popular than I actually am.

I was considering it since it's one of the few Zelda's I've not finished, but the price seems a bit steep, and disappointing it's not been threedee'd.

So are they gonna release another version that's in 3D? Or will you be able to update it to 3D for free? So many questions.

Unlike other Gameboy (Color) titles though, Link's Awakening DX is actually well worth the price, especially if you haven't played it yet. I'd definitely buy it if it wasn't for the original GBC copy I've bought last year to complete my Zelda collection. Smilie

SINCE 06

I don't know whether to get this or not. I've played a bit of it and I liked what I played. Tbh.. I think £5 is worth it... eh, maybe I'm just used to having overpriced games..?

Tbh I looked at the price on a few different sites and it's around £10 used so the price is ok by me Smilie

I absolutely love this game. Played the crap out of it when I was a kid.

Also, it may not be in 3D, but for those of you that don't already know, if you hold down START and SELECT before the game loads, you'll see a GameBoy/GameBoy Color border around the screen set at its original resolution. If you raise the 3D slider all the way up, the screen will look like it sort of sank into the GameBoy.

And, of course, holding L+R and pressing Y will give the original GameBoy games that oldschool green tint. I love the good ol' easter eggs. Smilie

Yeah, the GBC border can be set to 3D. And I would definitely pay a fiver for this gem, if you haven't played it properly before. One of the best stories in Zelda. Such a brilliant little game.

I just hope we get the Oracles too.

I also hope we get those too. Will be buying both if we get them. xD

I'll get it because it's the only handheld Zelda title I haven't played but £5.40 is a joke.

With Zelda I can let it slide but I doubt I'll be getting any other GB/GBC game. PSone classics on the PSstore are only £3.99 (most games anyway.)

This made me want to play my original copy of DX on my GBA SP Smilie. But I don't have time for that :/.

I would like to know what a reasonable price for this game/GBC games would be for you guys, since I thought this was quite reasonable, especially since I've only played like 5 minutes of it before.

Dude, if you found Link's Awakening in a shop second hand for five quid, that's an absolute steal. I paid 30 quid for this badboy back in the day. Sure, Nintendo might overcharge for future GB/GBC titles, but this is five quid for one of the best Zeldas in the series!

Oh, God, yes. I loved the Oracle series as well. Especially since I found a nifty little password generator. Wink wink.
