Zelda: Mystical Seed of Power linking details

[01.08.01] » Full details on how the two halves of Nintendo's Game Boy Color adventure will interact.

   After many months of vague promises, Nintendo has finally unveiled specific details on how its two forthcoming Zelda Game Boy Color titles will interact. After completing one of the games, which can be played in either order, players will receive a password to use when starting a new game in the other chapter. Using a password enables players to begin with four hearts instead of the traditional three, as well as retain their character name and some of their inventory items. More importantly, each game has certain events and characters that only appear if the other chapter has already been completed.

   Nintendo also announced solid Japanese release dates for the games. Both games -- the Chapter of Earth and the Chapter of Time and Space -- will be released on February 27. A North American release will likely follow later in the year.

   More on the Chapter of Earth can be found in the GIA's preview. Look for full coverage of the Chapter of Time and Space soon.
