Arzette: The Jewel Of Faramore Controller

Arzette: The Jewel of Faramore has been dubbed as the spiritual successor to the Philips CD-i Zelda games by its developers, so it's only fitting that it gets a controller to match.

Released by Limited Run Games in physical form, the title will ship in two versions – Standard and Collector's – and will be joined by a selection of related merchandise, including a replica of the original, godawful CD-i controller (not the revised, joypad-style one, which was actually half-decent).

This isn't just a prop, either – it will work with the PC and Switch versions of the game, as the title supports a 'classic controls' mode for the peripheral. You can get that whole 1993 experience!
