The folks over at Nintendo have decided to celebrate Thanksgiving by treating gamers in the U.S. with two new Nintendo 3DS bundles which were released yesterday and will be available only till December 18, 2011. The iconic Mario and Zelda franchises have been chosen by the Japanese company to be a part of these bundles.
First among the two includes Super Mario 3D Land and a Flame Red Nintendo 3DS system. While this fresh colored handheld was launched in September this year, the game was released just last week. It comprises new enemies, power-ups and the much loved Tanooki Mario costume alongside fresh abilities for the title character, like rolling somersaults and high-speed dashes. This game purportedly includes environments which have been created particularly to offer players the no glasses 3D experience.
The second bundle which is being offered by Nintendo consists of a copy of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D and the special 25th anniversary limited-edition Cosmo Black Nintendo 3DS system. The body of this handheld has been adorned with the Hyrule emblem as well as gold-colored embellishments. Ocarina of Time 3D was outed for the 3DS in June this year and features the original game along with a mirrored version of the reshuffled dungeons from the Master Quest edition of the game. This title has also been updated with graphics and 3D effects to suit the handheld’s capabilities.
Both the Nintendo 3DS bundles mentioned above have been launched in the U.S. and are currently available for purchase through major retailers at 199.99 USD (approx. Rs. 10,135) each.
