The Legend of Zelda may have had its official 30th anniversary on Feb. 21, but that’s not stopping Nintendo of Japan from spending six weeks soaking in the nostalgia of the classic game.

This week, the company went rummaging through an old storage closet and discovered some amazing retro gear: a still sealed Famicom and Famicom Disk System, as spotted by Kotaku.

You’ll also find pictures below of the nearly impossible to find Famicom Disk System Disk Writer, which was installed at a few thousand game shops in Japan back in the day.

Grid View Boxes and boxes of Famicom

The Disk System peripheral is piled up too

Look at the shine on that box

Still in its original packaging, I think I'm going to faint

I love that art

Now you're playing with discs

The Disk System installed

Just what the doctor ordered for playing Famicom games

I bet some of you have never even seen one of these

Love

And there it is

The old Disk Writer
