I know this is official_art from the game manual of A Link to the Past for the SNES, so why does it have © 2011? Nintendo is reusing their old art in new games?

Ignore me, I didn't see the 25th anniversary label in the far corner (off screen).

I'm surprise no one ever points out that this sword is a total rip off of Excalibur. . . Guess no one cares or ever thought about it?

^ Do you mean The Sword in the Stone from T. H. White's The Once and Future King?

According to legend; Excalibur (a.k.a. Caledfwlch.) was offered to king Arthur by the Lady of the Lake.

Though the French localization of the games call the Master Sword "Excalibur" or "Epée de Légende" (Sword of Legend). Interesting...
