Okay, I can't speak for either of those games, but if Adam Sessler, a man who hates all things Final Fantasy, liked FF12 (even if it has different mechanics than the old games) I think it might be worth a shot.

phantom hourglass that is supposed to come out for the ds in the near future is supposed to be a sequel to the wind waker. I wonder if it will be a good game?

if the whole game times you like majora's mask then it will suck.

Every publication I've seen has loved the new mechanics, and if a timed gameplay mechanic worked in Majora's Mask, why wouldn't it also work in Phantom Hourglass?

I also think it is entirely stupid that they mirrored twilight princess for the Wii. and I hate the gimmicky controller so I'll just get the gamecube version and it will be like playing a zelda as usual

This is ridiculous, dude. The Wii version plays excellent. The controller doesn't feel gimmicky at all, and the only complaint I have is a faint desire to be able to swing my sword with the press of a button. Otherwise, TP on the Wii rules. Aiming the bow with the Wiimote is made of awesome.


Nintendo can never make a better Zelda than a link to the past...Just like they cannot possibly make a better metroid than super metroid or a better mario than mario 64.


Um... They've already made a better Metroid than Super Metroid. It's called Metroid Fusion. And Mario 64 is a great game, but there's no way it's better than SMB3 or Super Mario World.

They actually used the game engine on quest 64 what a waste. I will never forgive nintendo for that.


Wait, wait, THQ publishes a crappy Imagineer developed RPG, and this is somehow Nintendo's fault?

The Oracle games will make you want to throw your Gameboy against the wall on occasions. They're both much harder than the Minish Cap. (Though don't knock it until you get to the final battle with Vaati. That fight is pretty hard.)

Also, are you playing Minish Cap on a DS? The DS does not play Gameboy Color or Gameboy games, only GBA games. If you have any GBA model except the Micro, then it will be fine, though. In fact, there is a store in both Oracle games that only appears when played on a GBA.

Don't be ridiculous, C3PX. Vaati is a Minish/Picori.

The Star Wars references probably come from the fact that the "Light Force" referenced througout the game was just called the "Force" in the original Japanese. And Link lives with his grandfather in Minish Cap. The only game where he lives with his uncle is A Link to the Past.*

*That's the version I played; if you're using the PAL version it might be different.

Threatening kids is fucking insane and anyone who does so for a reason like saving the animal should be locked the hell up and the key should be shot into orbit.


Exactly. Honestly, I think PeTA's true purpose is to create zealots, not save animals. The difference being that they want fanatics who don't think for themselves instead of rational people who make decisions in a rational manner. Cruelty to animals is appalling, but the things that PeTA does are far more appalling than anything you'll see in a slaughter house.

PETA's purpose isn't really animal rights. That's just a front for their real agenda, which seems to be to piss as many people off as possible.

Think about it. They compare chickens to the Holocaust; they make ads offensive to religious people; they target children with vile propaganda; and first and foremost, THEY KILL THE ANIMALS THEY CLAIM TO PROTECT.

The only logical conclusion, in my mind, is that the organization cares nothing about animals, and probably never did.

I liked Gundam Wing up until that ridiculous uber-pacifist ending where the narrarator says that Earth never had a war ever again after the events of the Endless Waltz OVA.

I never could get into Mobile Suit Gundam for some reason. And G-Gundam was totally crazy, but oddly entertaining.

SD Gundam just frikkin' sucked.

Donkey Kong is a Nintendo property, so the games were their's to distribute reguarldess of who developed them.

That said, Rare actually published four GBA games after being bought by Microsoft--Banjo Kazooie 3, It's Mister Pants!, Saberwulf, and Banjo-Pilot. (Banjo-Pilot was originally going to be Diddy Kong Pilot but the Diddy Kong liscence was dropped when Microsoft bought Rare.)

So, anybody here have a Wii Number? Mine is:
