Nintendo has confirmed that restocks of its Zelda 40th Anniversary Collection will be announced through the Nintendo Store app in the UK, following a rapid sell-through of special-edition hardware and bundles.
The announcement follows this week’s release of several commemorative items tied to The Legend of Zelda’s 40th anniversary — a milestone that marks four decades since the original The Legend of Zelda debuted in 1986.
Earlier this week, Nintendo launched a lineup of limited-edition merchandise and hardware, including a Zelda-themed Switch 2 bundle, a themed Pro Controller, and a game bundle that ships with an Ocarina of Time pin.
Many of those items sold out quickly in several regions.
Nintendo’s UK store page now displays a notice informing customers that the Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary Collection is sold out and that the company will notify users when stock is replenished via the Nintendo Store app.
Put plainly, Nintendo’s message for UK shoppers is that restock timing will be communicated directly through the Nintendo Store app rather than via social channels or third-party retailers.
In journalistic terms: Nintendo has told customers that the Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary Collection is currently out of stock in the UK and that the company will announce restock availability through the Nintendo Store app.
At the time of reporting, the Zelda-themed Switch 2 bundle, the Zelda-branded Pro Controller, and the Ocarina of Time game bundle with the commemorative pin were listed as out of stock on Nintendo’s UK storefront.
Nintendo’s US store pages display a “check back soon” message, indicating limited availability in that region as well.
Nintendo also emphasizes that the anniversary hardware is a special-edition release and will not be a permanent part of its hardware lineup.
As part of the physical release details, initial physical copies of Ocarina of Time for the commemorative hardware will include textured foil cover art.
For fans and collectors, the practical steps are clear: monitor the Nintendo Store app for official restock announcements, check your regional Nintendo Store pages on the eShop, and follow verified communications from Nintendo rather than third-party sellers.
Given the limited-edition status, prospective buyers should also be prepared for rapid sell-through when restock notices arrive.
