The Legend of Zelda is an adventure game originally released for the Famicom Disk System in Japan in 1986 and later released for the standard Nintendo Entertainment System hardware in other regions the next year; it would finally also receive a Famicom release in Japan in 1994. In 2004 the game would be re-released for the Game Boy Advance under the "Classic NES Series" line of games, and finally it has been given three Virtual Console re-releases: once for the Wii in 2006, twice for the Nintendo 3DS in 2011 (Ambassadors) and 2012 (standard release), and once again for Wii U in 2013. As the first installment of The Legend of Zelda series, this game was also given a sequel, titled Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, also released for the NES in 1987/1988.

Original NES copies of the game at retail were packaged with a map and strategy guide.
