A themed Switch 2 console is on many players’ wishlists, and what better game to receive a limited edition than Ocarina of Time? We’ve seen several themed editions for the original Switch, including models like the Standard, Lite, and OLED. Among these limited editions, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom version is arguably the best-looking, with other notable contenders including Mario Red, Pokémon Scarlet & Violet, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, and more editions.
In other news, the voice behind Princess Zelda has discussed the direction and expectations, or lack thereof, she was given during her audition.
