Accompanied by a full orchestra, Shigeru Miyamoto unveiled the 25th Anniversary celebration of the NES release of The Legend of Zelda.

According to Miyamoto, each of Nintendo’s platforms will get in on the celebration. Starting today, The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening DX will be added to the newly launched 3DS eShop. It will be followed next week by The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D. In September, the DSi will receive The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords as a free download.

Miyamoto also confirmed that The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword will be released “this holiday season” alongside a gold Wii Remote with Triforce styling.
