About this item
Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon for Philips CD-i shares the dubious honor with Faces of Evil as one of the worst Zelda games ever made — and one of the most collectible. The 1993 side-scroller gave Princess Zelda the lead role, which was progressive for its time, even if the execution was anything but.
The CD-i's microscopic install base makes all its games scarce. Wand of Gamelon benefits from the same meme-driven collector interest as its companion titles. Complete copies in the long-box case with manual are the target. Some collectors pursue the full CD-i Zelda trilogy (Faces of Evil, Wand of Gamelon, Zelda's Adventure) as a set.
Check the disc for bronzing: discs pressed at PDO Blackburn between 1988 and 1993 — etched "Made in U.K. by PDO" — can corrode, showing a bronze tint from the outer edge inward when held to light. Other pressing plants are not affected, so it is worth reading the etching rather than assuming. The long-box case hinges break easily. Confirm the manual is original and region-correct. These games rarely surface in truly mint condition, so anything complete and playable carries a premium.
