LOS ANGELES, CA - Shout! Factory and DIC Entertainment bring the complete animated series "The Legend Of Zelda" to DVD for the first time. The three-disc set includes all 13 episodes of the series spawned from the massively popular and influential 1980s Nintendo video game. The Legend Of Zelda: The Complete Animated Series captures the adventure, action and nostalgia of the game, and breathes life into its characters: Link, Princess Zelda and the evil wizard Ganon. Bonus features include two games, a downloadable character sketch gallery, selected original live-action segments from "The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!" and more.
