Video: Nintendo Unleashes New The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds TV Commercials

I like both commercials but I have to give the nod to the UK version. More gameplay and I enjoy that in advertising......weird that I've seen a lot of TV ads lately for a couple of new consoles with no gameplay footage.....I wonder why?

I feel like a ten year old again watching these commercials. I can't wait.

@Gerbwmu Because the game is under work, or they don't want to show anything yet.
Who knows?

more commercials needed for wii u come on Nintendo keep up with the times as u know things are going to sink we all know 3ds is doing well

Saw the US one on Spike TV yesterday during an episode of 'Cops'. The first Nintendo commercial I have seen on television since probably February, and the first time I've seen one on a channel that caters to young males/men.

I dig the retro vibe...kind of reminds me of this one

Nice, another awesome commercial.......for the 3ds

I like them both. Glad to see Nintendo is putting some marketing dollars behind this game!

Both are cool but the winner for me is the NA version just because more effort has been put into it!

Uk of course!

COME ON Wii U!! Pokemon X and Y are selling by themselves, So why support the 3DS even more while The Wii U barley has any commercials other than Mario?

@Gerbwmu omg I've been saying the exact thing to my wife, the killzone commercial is all live action, i played knack for ps4 and sad to say I've seen better games graphically on ps3, other ps4 consul commercials live action and the one x1 commercial I've seen live action

Wiiu definitely needs more commercials and like gt said enough with the families on the couch focus on the game and the system

I like both commercials the American one reminds me of the type of NES commercials they made back in the 80's and the UK one showed more of the actual game. I noticed the final scene in the USA one showed a boss that I haven't seen yet.

chub

The American one wins over the UK one in my opinion. I liked the nostalgic old-school feeling of the US commercial. The UK one is nice too though.

Both are good, but the UK one shows more game footage indeed. It also shows that gorgeous LoZ 3DS XL...

Nintendo? Running ads on American TV?! During KEY DEMO PROGRAMMING?!?!

HELL HATH BECOME ICE

I like the NA commercial better, but it should have showed off the gold 3DS XL. -sighs- Nintendo always miss something important.......good commercial tho for both

The NA commercial look nice, though I don't like how they use a white kid to do the live action play. Would had been better if they made him look more like an elf.

I hate the American one. (Rather just have the footage. Let people decide whether they want it or not by that no scummy tactics)

Since we're talking Zelda commercials, I'll just leave this here... First one I ever saw, before I even got an NES!

The American one looks like something out of the gameshow Nightmare.

Advertising really is the purest representation of everything wrong with the world.

UK commercial is slightly better, shows more gameplay which is always a plus and I'm not to keen on the live action on the US, even though the US version has a better/more epic voice over.

Another victory for America.

That NA one is just a perfect.

Glad I got this pre-ordered!

"Only available on Nintendo 3DS, 2DS, 3DS XL, but not DS, DSi, or DSi XL.. Hope you got that..."

10/10

Handheld-Game of the Gen

I like the NoA one.

Yep, saw the American one TWICE last night during South Park.

Nintendo must put a lot of advertising into Comedy Central, because I always see at least one Nintendo commercial every time I turn it there (also see the occasional one on Adult Swim).

North American version is very 90s and I like that!

I kind of wish the American one didn't start with the flatten-against-the-wall ability as it looks kinda simple where the other effects are kind of fun. The UK one looks like an online ad usually targeted at core gamers who seek this stuff out on the internet. Not sure what that means, but I like seeing the gameplay footage myself.

The original Zelda TV ad is classic. It was ridiculous and odd even then but it was SO memorable. The only problem is it just doesn't match the game very well in retrospect.

@retro_player_22 arent elves usually portrayed as white though

Both well done. Should air both in both regions to maximize audience penetration imo.

The American one is cool, but doesn't show much gameplay! The uk one has lots of gameplay, but a corny voice-over! I would say: Remove the uk voice-over, and we have 2 pretty nice commercials!

I will always prefer the one that shows of gameplay over dumb live-action segments that make the game seem cheesy.

The first one. Just preordered the 3ds link between worlds bundle. It's about time I hopped on the 3ds train.

no dungeon you cant solve? thats not what i like to hear, it seems like all the challenge in this game may be saved for challenge mode, i hope its more than just stronger enemies, i am always a fan of a challenging puzzle

UK is more spoilery, so I like the USA one. shows main new mechanic and the gameplay as well as draws the viewer in with a cheesy live action reenactment

I think the wall thing looks stupid.

I wish the UK ad had Rik mayall like the old links awakening ad that would be awesome.

Anyone else notice Blind at the end of the NA commercial? Between that and the Moldorm I'm wondering how many bad guys are going to be reappearing. Though I do love LTTP so it's not really a bad thing.

HEY GUYS!!!

Game Informer reviewed this game and gave is 10/10 rupees! ;p Google it! They praised the game all around from the tricky puzzles to boss battles.

Haha, the American advert is just pure cheese.

@ReigningSemtex
Me too

I like the NA version better. Seems kind of old school. =)

Preferred the UK one. Actually showing gameplay and not rushing it to the end just to see some teen go Indiana Jones on some ruin? Yes please.
