Nintendo announced today a new partnership with SCRAP on Defenders of the Triforce. Beginning at the very end of January, fans of the Zelda series can work together in teams of six to solve a mystery in a huge area and within a set time limit.
Defenders of the Triforce “will let guests interact with classic items and characters seen in The Legend of Zelda series like the Goron, Zora and Kokiri tribes.” Similar to Zelda titles, items can be used to solve puzzles and progress into other areas.
Once the main puzzle experience is finished, those who attend Defenders of the Triforce can then receive access to photo opportunities as well as a promotional lounge. Here, exclusive Zelda merchandise can be purchased.
Head past the break for today’s full announcement and lineup of cities.

The Edge Joystick incompatible with the NES Classic Edition due to missing adapter
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 10 Comments
The Edge Joystick is one of two new peripherals Emio created for the NES Classic Edition. Unfortunately, reports are coming in that the accessory isn’t working with Nintendo’s device. It’s compatible with the Wii and Wii U, but in terms of the NES Classic Edition, buyers are out of luck. Best Buy is apparently recalling The Edge Joystick, asking consumers to return it.
Emio does at least seem to be aware of the situation, and is hoping to rectify things. The incompatibility is due to a missing adapter not included in the box. If you’re one of these people affected, Emio is advising consumers on Facebook to send an email to [email protected].

Fans come up with new theory about the fate of King Bob-omb in Super Mario 64
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News, Random | 9 Comments
In Super Mario 64, King Bob-omb awaits you as the boss of Bob-omb Battlefield. On the way up to the top of the mountain where the battle takes place, players need to navigate through a pit of two rolling balls.
What happens after you defeat him is very interesting. Instead of two balls, the pit will instead have three on every star following the battle. Fans now believe that the new ball is King Bomb-omb himself.
The first bob-omb you come across in Bob-omb Battlefield will mention that the King was a “dud.” Coupled with the fact that the ball would resemble the King if given facial features, the theory is definitely plausible. Some players may have noticed some of these things in the past, but they’ve definitely not been widespread.
