We just finished our Katamari Damacy giveaway and we’re back with another giveaway! The giveaway for the month of May is: Hyrule Historia! The book is the US English Hardcover version brought to you by Dark Horse Books and Nintendo, not the Japanese version.

For those unfamiliar with Hyrule Historia, it is a book full of Legend of Zelda Artwork, concept art and the official timeline outlining the order of how the games take place. It goes into deep into the makings and origins of the Legend of Zelda Series and its games.

Hyrule Historia is a great addition to every zelda fan’s collection!

The rules remain the same with the addition that, unfortunately only members residing in the United States can enter to win.

You must at least purchase a free contest entry from our forum shop to enter. Additional entries can be purchased for 100 rupees each. Rupees are received by posting in our forums.

We will be holding a contest every month with a prize for a lucky winner so make sure to register and follow us on our social network pages: Facebook, Twitter, Google+, YouTube.

After a month of waiting, we finally have a winner for the Katamari Damacy giveaway! Congratulations to pheonix561 in winning April’s Giveaway of Katamari Damacy!

Didn’t enter the giveaway this month? Don’t worry as we have another giveaway for May coming right up! Stay tuned for May’s Giveaway, surely something everyone will want!

We already knew that Zelda 3DS took place in the same world as A Link to the Past, but to what extent? It didn’t take long for fans to take to the game to try and find the exact spot in A Link to the Past that was displayed earlier in the Zelda 3DS announcement trailer. They have come back with the below comparisons showing us that, while the terrain may have changed slightly it really is the same world and terrain as A Link to the Past. GameXplain also presents us with a video displaying side-by-side gameplay of both zelda 3ds and A Link to the Past.

Reminder to those unaware or have forgotten, we are giving away Katamari Damacy to registered users this month. Entering is free with extra entries costing 100 rupees, received for posting and other site events.

German Nintendo newsite and youtube channel NiNTENDOMiNATiON bring us 13 minutes of gameplay for the next Zelda 3DS game, dubbed A Link to the Past 2 or A Link to the Past Sequel. The video shows us what could be the first level leading up to the boss battle against Moldorm, from A Link to the Past.

Nintendo announced in today’s Nintendo Direct that a new Zelda game for the 3DS is in the works and is slated for December 2013. The game is said to be taken in the same world as A Link to the Past and will feature “layered gameplay,” by allowing Link to jump up to another level of a dungeon.
