I just came on here to post this. Beat me to it! Definitely going to capitalize on that tonight when I get home.

Definitely getting this.  I downloaded it and completed it on my sister's 3DS when it was released, but noticed it was not in the Nintendo eShop when I got my 3DS.

Ya I got it when it first released, and was glad I did. It's nice being able to play it without relying on having 2 people that want to play.  I do need to eventually get a 2nd copy of it for the GBA though, so I can play through the special stuff on Link to the Past.

I havent played the hand held version of this game but I sure hope its better than the GC version. That game is frustrating. I should be getting mine tomorrow as Saturday is normally the only time I have any access to wifi.

I liked Four Swords Adventures on the Gamecube! :o 
This game was what came packed in with A Link to the Past on the Gameboy Advance.  It required at least one other person to link up so many people, myself included, missed out on it the first time.  It does control a little bit awkward as it was intended to be a multiplayer game, but it is still fun.

I thought this was LttP: Four Swords Edition. I was immediately thrown off when I saw the opening cutscene. I'd be lying if I didn't say I was a little disappointed. But still, it's pretty awesome of Nintendo to give us a free game.

Anyone try this out yet?  Is this the same game as the GBA version, or are there any differences you've noticed? 

thanks guys! 8)

According to a wiki I read the other day, there are 2 new zones in the 3DS version. Otherwise I think it's pretty much the same game, but you can play by yourself on the 3DS, while you have to play multiplayer on the GBA.

It was a very quick download, but it's also only a GBA game... Can't be THAT big.

Plus its only half of the original carts worth of memory, because it was originally bundled with Link to the Past.
