Maybe you were a Yu-Gi-Oh or Bakugan kid instead, but to a certain slice of my generation, nothing will top Beyblades as far as collectible trinkets tied to multimedia Japanese properties went. Letting the colored tops rip and seeing them battle it out in the arena produced a thrill like few others. And now one particularly inspired The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom player has reconstructed their spinning action in-game:

The device uses a combination of fire and electricity to charge up both proverbial tops before they fall loose and collide in the crater arena. It’s an absolutely charming display of creativity and potential in a game already stacked with that, and we can’t wait to see someone recreate entire trading card games using the Zonai devices next.
