I have been on the fence about the 3DS ever since I heard about it. It looked cool, and hearing about Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and StarFox 64 being remade for the new platform made it more appealing, but I still wasn't sure. When I found out that there was going to be a Legend of Zelda limited edition 3DS coming out on Black Friday, that sold me. Let me tell you first: Nintendo went all-out for the Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary, and this system is a spectacular homage to a legendary title. At first, I thought it was just going to be a black 3DS with a nice Zelda design on the top lid. When I opened it, much to my surprise, I found that there was a lot of detail work that was done. First of all, the back is accented with gold trim and a very dark gold back; fitting very nicely with the Zelda them. Upon opening it, the 3D sliding switch and all of the system's lettering are gold, which looks very nice and contrasts nicely with the black. The controls feel solid, buttons firmly in place, and the control stick feels like a joystick, not like the PSP's control stick. Internally, the system is very slick and nice to look at. Overall, the 3DS design is very nice and something any collector would get his/her hands on.
As for the OS, the menu system and settings are very intuitive, exactly what you would expect from Nintendo. When you start up the system, you register yourself, make a profile for your system, and go through the settings and parental control settings; customizing them for your preferences. (Parents: I strongly recommend doing this yourself before you hand over the system to your child. The 3DS has a built-in web-browser and a myriad of options. There is even a 3D setting you can control if you do not want your child to game in 3D, which is recommended for children 7+. Make sure you set up the parental controls first. You can always change them later with a secret PIN number.) I was very surprised with the Nintendo eShop channel, in which I was able to purchase some old Game Boy games that I grew up playing. The menu settings are simple and very organized. The Netflix app is definitely something to download if you have an account. The UI is just like the Wii's, except with an additional screen. Depending on your bandwidth, it may run a bit slower than the Wii or your PC. I have found the actual software to freeze on me from time-to-time, which is something they will have to fix. The cameras take decent pictures, but it's a lot of fun to take pictures in 3D and editing them. As of the writing of this review, there is a planned update for the video app to be able to take video instead of just playing video, which will be a nice feature, especially if you have a 3D tv. Overall, I find the system to be much more than I expected, the 3D works very well, and I know that it is the most family-friendly system out there.
This system bundle does come with a copy of Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D. A classic fantasy-adventure about the classic, epic struggle between good and evil spanning 25 years; this game is an updated version of the classic Nintendo 64 title. To call it a remake would be an insult. The developers kept the game looking just like it did on the ol' N64, but with a higher polygon count, better animations, more vivid colors, enhanced controls and menu system, and so much more. Even the most minute details added to the game further enhanced, rather than diminished, the quality of the game. Everything about it is spectacular. As a fan of the series, I am overwhelmingly impressed with the quality of work that Nintendo did with Ocarina of Time 3D, allowing the amazing story to live on, further polished, and in my pocket. If you have a Nintendo 3DS, Ocarina of Time is a must-have for everyone's library.

I got mine during the black friday this year. I've been reluctant to get 3DS when it first came out, even after the price drop to $169. But when I saw this limited edition bundle, oh boy I glad I waited. At first I thought the reason why this bundle is black with gold markings is because Nintendo has more Cosmo black in stock (because its sales were behind the blue and red consoles, which you can check at Amazon 3DS best seller). But when I opened the box and see the console myself, I was wrong. The slot where you put the game cartridge is all gold (unlike the regular console which is silver), and all the buttons have gold accent font, and lastly, at the bottom, the logo and everything written in gold. I really love this console and for those of you who haven't own a 3DS, and thinking of getting one, this bundle will be perfect for you (if you like playing Zelda). But if Zelda is not your cup of tea, then I suggest getting the Mario red bundle or the Nintendogs pink 3DS bundle that will be release in US on December 4. I know Amazon LLC doesnt sell this bundle for its official price $199, but as I write this review, gamestop still selling this bundle for $199.

I waited and waited until this new Zelda 3DS was released to jump aboard the 3D bandwagon and I am simply glad I waited.
This Black and Gold limited edition zelda 3DS system is beautiful to look at. The Zelda game that comes free with the bundle is AMAZING.
I love Zelda. I have played all of them and this 3D version is a total blast to play.
I waited over 8 hours to pick it up. And the best buy store was soldout within 10minutes. I guess they did not make very many of these systems as it seems everyone is sold out and won't get anymore instock. My brother wants one for himself but can't find them anywhere to buy. If you are lucky enough to find one. BUY IT. Don't think! Just buy it right now!

Why not XL sub version?
Seriously- why not? That's a lot of dough for just the basic 3DS. It should really be the 3DS XL as it has a bigger screen. I would not pay for this. Read more
