Gamer recreates the game world of the first Zelda game with 3D printer

An unknown gamer has made a 3D print of the game world of the first Zelda game. The creator recreated the world in Minecraft and then printed it with a 3D printer.

According to Retro Gaming Magazine, the maker has spent half a year recreating the world in Minecraft. Not much is known about the original maker as the information has passed through several hands. The maker sold the model to someone who later put it up for sale on the Trade Sell Collect Retro & New Video Games & Toys group on Facebook.

Printing the card reportedly took 24 hours, after which the model was colored very precisely. Unfortunately, the seller was struggling financially and felt compelled to sell through the Facebook page. It is not entirely clear for how much money the copy was sold for. According to the writer of the article in Retro Gaming Magazine, it was about $100, which equates to about $96.
