3DS Virtual Console would do this game goooooooood !
I agree, Ninendo please make this happen.
What the heck happened to oracle of seasons!?
@McRokert Definitely; Zelda & 3DS go together amazingly!
they need to have some way to connect seasons and ages when both are on the same 3DS, that would make it amazing. Nintendo, we are counting on you, don't let the legend be forgotten!
@Sam_Loser2 easy, they both had the option to use passwords to link them.
@5 Just imagine the 10 page + password manual input for a gold transfer. oh lawd
