One of Nintendo’s most legendary franchises is The Legend of Zelda and the stories woven between the games, starting with the original NES release all the way to the latest, A Link Between Worlds, means there’s a lot to catch up on for gamers who haven’t followed closely. If your gift recipient loves the series as much as we think they do, you’ll want to check out these gift options for them.
The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia
This book debuted last year and features the full history of Hyrule, including alternate timelines and where the games fall on those timelines according to the current story. For anyone who is confused about which games fall where in the Hyrule universe, this is the ultimate book that will clear everything up.
Even if your friend isn’t a dedicated geek to the Zelda series, it makes a great coffee table book to flip through as it includes some previously never before seen concept art for the games. Any gamer would be proud to have it in their collection, so we can’t recommend the Hyrule Historia enough as a gift idea.
Replica Ocarina
Ocarina of Time is perhaps the most definitive Zelda game in the modern era. It’s been remade on the Nintendo 3DS, so if your friend hasn’t played the new version, that’s something to consider. However, if you’re looking for a more unique gift and something that’s functional as well as collectible, why not this replica ocarina? There are 12 hole versions that are more faithful to the traditional ocarina design, but there are also 6 hole versions that mimic the ocarina in the game.
