Legend of Zelda Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons Rereleased May 30, 2013

For those of you who may have missed out on two classic portable entries in the Legend of Zelda series, you now have a second chance to experience them.  The Legend of Zelda Oracle of Ages and The Legend of Zelda Oracle of Seasons are out now for download on the Nintendo 3DS through the Nintendo eShop.

I first became aware of these games during The Angry Video Game Nerd’s exploration of the Zelda timeline.  While James Rolfe admits he wasn’t that angry in the video, it was a great video on the history of Zelda video games.  What interested me about these games was that they made use of a special Link System, which enabled extra sequences for gamers who played both games.  Nintendo has announced all of the Link System features are intact in this rerelease.

Legend of Zelda Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages are out now for download on the Nintendo 3DS through the Nintendo eShop.  You can download these games for $4.99 US each until June 20th, 2013.  After that they’ll be at their normal price of $5.99 US.
