| - 2011, the year of celebration, saw two Legend of Zelda titles officially acknowledging the 25th anniversary. A port of The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords for the Nintendo 3DS, available free of charge for a limited time, opens with a depicting of the anniversary logo. This port also includes the Realm of Memories, an all-new location with stages utilizing graphics and elements from The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past as well as The Legend of Zelda. The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, the sixteenth installment of the series, released on the Wii in 2011, bears the anniversary logo on its box. It even contains a veiled reference to the anniversary within the game itself; when Owlan is informing the participants of the Wing Ceremony about its history, he refers to it as being the 25th anniversary since the Knight Academy was founded. A special limited edition version of the game was also released, containing a Zelda-themed Wii Remote as well as the The Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary Special Orchestra CD, a selection of orchestral arrangements of musical scores from throughout the series. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D, an enhanced remake of the Nintendo 64 game released for the Nintendo 3DS, saw a re-release late in in 2011, as a 25th Anniversary Bundle with a special, limited edition Nintendo 3DS bearing symbols of the series such as the Triforce, the Ocarina of Time, and the Goddess's Harp.
