Zelda: A Link Between Worlds musical piece is the Hyrule Castle theme when played in reverse
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 2 Comments
Remember how Zelda: Skyward Sword’s main theme played backwards actually turned out to be Zelda’s Lullaby? It would appear that Nintendo has implemented something similar for a track in Zelda: A Link Between Worlds. One of the game’s musical pieces, if played in reverse, seems to be the Hyrule Castle theme from A Link to the Past.
Check out the video above to hear the song played in both directions. You can also listen to A Link to the Past’s Hyrule Castle theme here.

2DS sales have risen 64 percent week-on-week in the UK. The boost, in part, is due to a price cut initiated by retailers. Argos, Amazon and Tesco, and others have been offering the 2DS for just under £100. The 2DS alone was the best-selling console in the UK last week, and that’s without counting 3DS/3DS XL sales.
