The official Legend of Zelda playing cards from Nintendo are currently available at a discounted price of $9.99, reflecting a 20% reduction from the original $12.50. These cards, imported exclusively from Japan, can be purchased through Amazon, although this often involves buying from a reseller. As a result, you might experience a slightly longer wait time for delivery due to potential stock limitations.
These cards are not just a great addition to any collection but also make for an excellent gift, much like the popular Legend of Zelda manga or comprehensive guides such as the Hyrule Historia. Whether you're a fan of the series or looking for a unique present, these playing cards are a fantastic choice.

The deck includes the standard 52 cards, each adorned with art featuring characters, items, and locations from the entire history of the Legend of Zelda series, spanning from the original NES game to Skyward Sword. Iconic characters like Zelda grace the Queen cards, while Ganondorf is depicted on the Kings. My personal favorite is the Tingle Jokers. Released to commemorate the franchise's 25th anniversary, the cards boast green backs showcasing various Link designs throughout the years. They come housed in a durable, thick plastic protective case, ideal for both display and practical use during a casual game of go-fish.
It's worth noting that Nintendo began its journey by manufacturing Hanafuda playing cards back in 1889, making these Legend of Zelda cards a fitting tribute to the company's rich history.
