The Legend of Zelda: Collector's Edition is a compilation title for the Nintendo GameCube released in 2003. It includes four playable The Legend of Zelda games, a 20-minute playable demo of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, and a retrospective video of The Legend of Zelda series. The title only saw a release through promotions and bundles, and it was never released through traditional means.
Overview
The four playable titles include every title released during the Nintendo Entertainment System and Nintendo 64 eras: The Legend of Zelda, Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. The Super Nintendo Entertainment System title, The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, is noticeably absent.
Some of the games received minor changes. In The Legend of Zelda, many of the grammatical errors from the original release were fixed, especially in the opening introduction. The Nintendo 64 titles feature an upgraded resolution to 640 × 480p from the original 320 × 240i on the Nintendo 64 originals, and the B button from the head-up display was recolored to red to correspond with the color on the GameCube controller.
Availability
In North America, Australia, and Europe, The Legend of Zelda: Collector's Edition originally could only be obtained by purchasing a GameCube bundled with the disc, by registering a GameCube and two games at Nintendo.com, or by subscribing or renewing a subscription to Nintendo Power (in North America) or Club Nintendo in Sweden.[1] In the UK, 1,000 copies were made available through the Club Nintendo Stars Catalogue program. After these were quickly claimed, Nintendo gave a copy to customers who mailed in proof of purchases from select Nintendo GameCube games.[2] Even though it never saw a traditional release, Nintendo Power still created a guide covering all four of the games on the disc.
