I was looking through Zelda Universe (after feeling a thirst for TP info), and noticed something about the title images for each game...![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() And now look at: ![]() ...Is it me, or is the original, the game that started a legend, the only one with a crappy pixelated image? You think they could've at least spent some time doing it up... ![]() ...And look at the LoZ logo (especially the shield). Notice anything? They had a perfectly good logo on the instruction booklet/GBA box, and they go take an image of a NES box.

I love the NES box... but I guess they should have used the re-release for this. |

...I meant the fact that the shield on the LoZ logo has the corner of a NES cart poking through. Last time I checked, NES carts weren't around in the days of Hyrule, and thus I don't think they'd have one on their shield.

Pickled in time, like gherkins in a jar

The GBA shield is actually very badly done - Nintendo where quite lazy with doing it up, as they just copy and pasted the heart from the lower right into the upper left corner. It's got the same 'weathering' on it and everything, making it just look unnatural and somewhat unprofesional, IMO. If they were going to repeat the heart, they should have at least re-wethered it so taht it had cracks and stuff in different places, to make it not look like it was just copy and pasted Also, the artwork may be pixillated because they may not have had anything that was terribly high resolution to work with in the way of official art. That Link pose is taken from the manual book, I think (or something like that - I've seen it before lots of times and can't place it at the moment). |

It's not the best LoZ Link (official) artwork anyway. |

Also, it's one of the few illustrations that shows Link as being right-handed. |
