Nintendo Markets Link’s Sword in Life-Size Zelda
Do you know about Link’s Sword in Life-Size Zelda? It’s a bit like the Holy Grail for fans of The Legend of Zelda video game. Nintendo has just released a life-size replica of Link’s famous sword (that’s the hero’s name). A pretty piece intended for fans of the universe, it was created by the Japanese Shigeru Miyamoto, and still measures 105 centimeters in length from the pommel to the tip.
The Master Sword is Link’s signature weapon and is an integral part of the character’s visual identity. As a central element of Zelda’s iconography, we find in particular the symbol of the famous Triforce above the ricasso.
Made of resin, this replica remains a decorative object. But even if she doesn’t have the fire and lightning attacks like in the video game (that’s a shame), she is equipped with a bit of technology. In addition to vibrating at the press of a button, it is capable of playing 8 melodies from the soundtrack of the Zelda saga.
Link’s Sword in Life-Size Zelda is sold on Nintendo’s Japanese site for 130 euros. And to continue in the world of video games, we remind you of the initiative of creative Dan Leveille, who had fun imagining the posters for a fake Netflix series, The Legend of Zelda. They had stirred up the web so much that Netflix had to officially speak out to deny the news.
