Got Tears of the Kingdom Keychain + Zelda Playing Cards

Here are some more goodies from the My Nintendo Store. The first one is a glow-in-the-dark keychain for Tears of the Kingdom, certainly useful for whenever you might travel into the Depths. It was recently available for 600 Platinum Points and it looks really nice, where this was the main reason for my order. But I didn't want to pay full postal charges just for this, so I also ordered something else in addition, where there was just recently another Zelda item made available the store.

This set of playing cards was originally available in Japan only for the 25th Anniversary, but now it made it somehow to us. The instruction paper inside is even entirely in Japanese, still. Anyway, you can now easily buy it in the My Nintendo Store for 17.50€, which is quite the price...

And I wouldn't say it's worth it. A lot of the motives look quite cheap, where they didn't even bother with using official art. Like, the Makar who you can see above is actually a cutout of his 3D ingame model... It also only makes use of four Zelda games and not of the entire bandwidth of the games up to the 25th Anniversary.

  • Spades: The Legend of Zelda
  • Diamonds: Ocarina of Time
  • Hearts: The Wind Waker
  • Clubs: Skyward Sword

The idea isn't entirely terrible, but it all looks a bit busy. There is some funny stuff, though, like having Tingle as the joker.
