Collector's Edition History of Link


This poster contains a picture of 10 different Links with corresponding years of release underneath. The pictures of Link are from The Legend of Zelda, Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, A Link to the Past,  Link's Awakening,  Ocarina of Time,  Majora's Mask,  Oracle of Ages and  Oracle of Seasons,  Wind Waker,  Four Swords Adventures,  The Minish Cap,  Twilight Princess, and  Phantom Hourglass. A description of which game each picture depicts, the release year in North America and system it was originally released on is found below the pictures and title, for example, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time [Nintendo 64, 1998].

The border around the edge of the poster is written in the Hylian Language which directly translates from Hylian to English. The writing is similar to the prologue given by waiting at the title screen in The Legend of Zelda. The poor grammar is assumed to be because of a translation from Japanese to English to Hylian. The literal translation with added punctuation is as follows:

In the tranquil kingdom of Hyrule, Triforce golden artifacts possessing untold mystical powers was handed down over generations. One day a Ganon a powerful warlock bent on reigning over a dynasty of fear and darkness attacked the kingdom and seized the Triforce of Power. Fearing his rules, the princess of Hyrule, Zelda, split the Triforce of Wisdom into eight fragments and scattered them throughout the realm to keep them out of Ganon’s reach. However, the princess was imprisoned by Ganon. A young lad, his name was Link, stumbled across this crisis while traveling the area. He was told what happened and vowed to save Zelda and to defeat Ganon. Link’s new adventure has just begun.

Twilight Princess


This poster contains a montage of characters and events in Twilight Princess. In the foreground, Wolf Link is ridden by Midna and is surrounded by Shadow Beasts. Above him is the human Link riding Epona with the Master Sword drawn. The background contains Zelda on the left showing her left profile. In the center is Zant or just his helmet and on the right is Midna in her true form showing her right profile.

Phantom Hourglass


This poster is plainer than the other two. It contains Link and Linebeck sailing over the ocean with a few islands in the background.
