A young boy living in Hyrule, Link is often given the task of rescuing Princess Zelda™ and Hyrule from the Gerudo thief Ganondorf. Players can use a variety of both Legend of Zelda themed Amiibo and non- Zelda Amiibo to scan in to perform a variety of features depending on the particular Amiibo. All of the Breath of the Wild Amiibo have great designs but this one really pops out at you and makes you want to get it.

I just bought a Playstation 3 to play some games that I missed out on and then in a couple of months I will probably get a Switch. Now that Xenoblade is nearly done (my level-50 Skell is fully tooled up and raring to defeat the final boss), I can throw myself into my Zelda quest with renewed vigour. It’s going pretty slowly so far – I’ve only managed to complete Oracle of Seasons from the list – but that’s mostly down to putting 100+ hours into the sublime Xenoblade Chronicles X, as well as going mad for Fire Emblem. If you compare the two new Link Amiibo size wise, they are similar if you count the horse but Rider Link without the horse is very small in comparison. Zelda-themed Amiibos will summon special chests, some with exclusive equipment, plus a different variety of items that drop outside of the chest sometimes within barrels and crates.

In Ocarina of time, Link’s bond with Epona is aww-worthy, so to see him faceless and emotionless while riding this nice horse is mildly blasphemous in my humble opinion. If you need advice or support for your product, please in the first instance contact the support provider using the number on this support page. If nothing else, the fact that I can complain about the face is a sign of just how good of figures Amiibo are!

Link is less detailed and does not feel like the focal point of this Amiibo for better or worse depending on your opinion. Only reviews that feature the label "Verified Review" have been checked to ensure that the author actually used or purchased the product. Details – I praised Archer Link in my recent review for having some of the best looking decals on an Amiibo and when you compare Rider Link to that, chances are good that you will be a little disappointed. Archer in full female Gerudo dress drinking in the Gerudo bar and probably still hitting on everyone in the place.That said its worth noting that the face is covered by the hood for that very reason so you can’t see the face.

I decided that I would wait until a few games I want to play are out (not that Zelda is short by any means) and take a short break from Nintendo as I could feel I was not appreciating some games/franchises as much as normal (Paper Mario and Mario and Luigi games are a good example of this). Because the rewards are randomly generated each time you scan an Amiibo, it's very easy to take advantage of. Functionality is a big reason to get one over the other and since I don’t have BotW yet, I don’t know as much about that as I usually do.Nintendo will absolutely be making more but for the short term, it may hard to track these Amiibo down.
