Zelda 3DS Bundle is out now!

The limited edition Zelda 3DS bundle is now in store shelves! If you don’t have a 3DS or are getting one for a loved one, now is the time! I’ll have unboxing video/pics once my online order from GameStop arrives. Now if only I could stop waiting impatiently at the door like Scott Pilgrim for my package to arrive!
