The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past was arguably one of the greatest Nintendo games ever made, but it’s hard to improve on a classic, right? Apparently not, as dozens of contributors have come together and created Parallel Worlds, a ROM hack for the original game that is over four years in the making. Changes include new overworlds, new dungeons, new house indoors and caves, new graphics, new screen layout, new music, new story, and “a lot of other changes, and surprises!”. More Zelda is always a good thing.

Monopoly and Nintendo have combined forces and created Nintendo Monopoly, the classic board game but with a Mario twist. The board features some of Nintendo’s most popular characters, including Mario, Donkey Kong, Zelda, Metroid, Kirby, Star Fox and Wario. Plus, the pewter game pieces are modeled after a Donkey Kong barrel, Link’s boots, a Hylian Shield, an NES controller, Mario’s hat, and a Koopa shell. It’ll makes you want to be an eight-year-old tyrannical monopolist all over again, buying up everything you land on until the other players have no choice but to concede a shameful defeat.
