The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords coming to your DSi for free

Do you like The Legend of Zelda? Do you like the word %26ldquo;free?%26rdquo; Well, internet, you%26rsquo;re in luck. The classic co-op Zelda adventure Four Swords Adventures is coming to your DSi, and for just the right price.

As part of the publisher%26rsquo;s 25th anniversary celebration of its action/adventure franchise, Nintendo will be giving out free downloadable copies of what we assume is the cooperative GameCube classic this coming September. The free download willbe made available via DSiWare. Miyamoto didn't elaborate on the release so we're not entirely sure if it's a direct port of the GameCubeversion or if there's been changes made. Miyamoto himself made the announcement during Nintendo%26rsquo;s press event at E3 in Los Angeles, hoping it %26ldquo;brings all of your friends together.%26rdquo;

Look for more information on the rerelease when we get it.
