By the end of this week, The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword will be available pretty much everywhere in the world. How many of you have picked it up already or are planning to do so in the next few days?
Those of you who are Zelda fans but have yet to buy Skyward Sword should do what I've been doing for the last few days--which is stare at artist Andrew Kolb's "The Hyrulian Book of Biology" and then contemplate all of the wonderful things (including more illustrations like the ones that appear on the imaginary book's cover, below) that could be contained within such a compendium.
Kolb created "The Hyrulian Book of Biology" for an awesome Zelda tribute blog called Fill Up Your Hearts! (or is it Well, Excuse Me Princess?), by the way. Check it out here if you're so inclined.

'It's dangerous to go alone'
As many of you likely are aware, the latest entry in the Legend of Zelda series--subtitled "Skyward Sword"--will be released in just a few days (on Sunday, Nov. 20, to be exact).
To celebrate that fact--even though I'm not yet sure I'll be picking up the game myself--I scoured the blogosphere for awesome examples of Zelda fan art. The one was my favorite:
I found it on the Art Jumble blog, in case you're interested. Also, it was created by CancĂșn-based artist Carlos Lerma. (To see more of his illustrations, check out lerms.deviantart.com and lerms.net.)
Are any of you planning to pick up a copy of this long-awaited Wii game?

Let's Play: 'Which Box Art is Better?' (The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword edition)
While working up a post (that should be published tomorrow) about The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, I came across the art that seemingly will grace the covers of the standard and limited editions of this much-anticipated Wii game. Well, you know what that means: Another round of "Which Box Art is Better?"
The following piece of art will appear on the "limited edition" versions of the game that will hit store shelves in Europe on Nov. 18, North America on Nov. 20 and Japan on Nov. 23. (Pre-order the North American limited edition here and the standard edition here.)
As far as I can tell, the art above will also appear on the "standard" versions of the game that will be sold in Europe and North America, while the art below, which I nabbed from andriasang.com, will appear on the standard version that will be sold in Japan:
Which one do I prefer? Well, I usually like Zelda games to have golden covers, but this time I'm casting my vote for Japan's shimmery, summery standard edition.
Which piece of box art do all of you prefer and why?
