$42 at Woot | $47.39 at Amazon (was $60)
Unlike most Nintendo Switch exclusives released over the past year, Echoes of Wisdom is actually shipped and sold by Amazon.
If you buy Amazon’s $47.39 deal, you will get a North American physical copy. Over at Woot, there’s a chance you will get an imported edition from a different region. That said, all imported Switch games sold by Woot are region-free and play in English. The sole noticeable difference will be the ratings board emblem on the front cover.
Echoes of Wisdom is a pivotal entry in the beloved Nintendo franchise. For the first time in the franchise’s nearly 40-year history, the namesake steps into the leading role. Well, it’s not technically the first time Zelda has been playable, but Nintendo would probably like fans to forget Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon and Zelda’s Adventure, two infamous Philips CD-i games, exist at all.
Thankfully, Echoes of Wisdom is a triumph, an inventive combination of modern and classic Zelda formulas. The sprawling top-down adventure features traditional dungeons of old while giving players the freedom to approach puzzles in many different ways.
