I found a good way to hunt Triforce shards is to do them as soon as they become available. That is, explore a lot between dungeons. It breaks up the hunt and becomes much more fun.

I don't want to sound accusatory but I'm beginning to think that we as a whole have gotten too greedy and completely unsatisfiable. I mean on the surface Malaki's suggestions sound easy enough to implement but it would actually require many extra months of development to implement any single one of them in a satisfactory manner. And if they WEREN'T you know we'd be complaining about the slapdash effort to add extra content to what is already a beefy and fulfilling game experience. So.... yeah. Maybe try being happy with what's there for a change. It's always nice to be wowed, but it simply won't happen all the time. Sometimes our expectations get way too high.

When I find it, sure.

A new pokemon snap with more advanced camera options and maybe the ability to outfit your on-rail cart would be pretty awesome.

I finally broke down and bought a 3DS today, along with a Zelda preorder. This will be the first true copy of Ocarina I've ever owned. Keeping my iXL though. The screens on it are just too big and pretty to get rid of.

Sorry, I didn't save it. It was kinda sarcastic anyway because at a glance it's immediately unbelievable. Says stuff like "published by Activision."

You seen the Kerfuffle image? Now that's how you do a fake!

I'd be amazed to see any females over 40 in this game, unless they go all undead-evil like Cervantes. That's something Tira or Ivy could do.

Guys guys I saw Nintendo's new console and I dunno I have my doubts man I mean I'm just not feelin' it for some reason I dunno maybe it's because I feel like Nintendo has sold out or maybe I just don't like the idea of the controller or perhaps most of all it's because IT WAS ANNOUNCED TWO DAYS AGO AND I FEEL NO EXCITEMENT FOR A PIECE OF HARDWARE THAT'LL BE RELEASED IN A YEAR'S TIME. Jesus, people.

Ivy was 49 before?

Doesn't look like it. We've got Patroklos and Pyrrha replacing their mother and aunt.

You may as well beg for Mike Jones or King Corobo.

Yes, but by buying it on the WiiU, we promote the idea of M-rated games on Nintendo's console and therefore aid in shedding Nintendo's "kiddy" image, thereby hopefully resulting in more M-rated games on WiiU.

Agreed, but I doubt they'll really scoop her up. The game's too old and too forgotten now. We'll probably get Little Mac, Isaac/Matthew, and Saki/Isa, though.

All the Epic Yarn enemies were creations of Yin Yarn. They weren't even really alive.

Did they announce anything besides the fact that it exists? Perhaps some newcomers?

I bought one a few months back. It's wondrous, and a huge improvement over my old DS Phat. Dragon Quest 9 was especially epic on it.

I'd be happy if we got another SC3 story mode. That was so much fun playing through multiple times, adjusting characters' clothes as you go to make them "fit" more into the story (ie, making them neutral/evil during the time you're fighting against the rebels and your former superior, then switching them to noble/good when they betray the empire).

Keepin' it stylish?

Does this mean we're not getting half the chartacters back? Or will SC5 be filled to the brim with 50-somethings? I imagine that we'll get all the younger guys and gals (Xianghua, Talim, Kilik, Yunseong, Seong Mina), and then expies of the ones too old to return. You are now imagining a 55-year-old Ivy.

ItI second LKS and Muramasa. Relatively speaking, sales for LKS are slightly below average, while sales for Muramasa are impressive. That's certainly a lot better than, say, A Boy & His Blob. Beautiful hand-drawn visuals, compelling unlockables, brilliant cohesion of action and puzzles... less than 100,000 sales. Seriously, there's just too many Wii games out there that people unfairly snubbed. No wonder developers call the system a bomb.

Too bad Ivy the Kiwi sold like crap. Approx. 40,000 units across both Wii and DS platforms.

You mean shows like cash cab don't just pick random jerkoffs from the streets and do, in fact, screen their contestants? Colour me shocked. SHOCKED, I tell you. Best of luck, laos.

Endless Ocean, Fling Smash, Zenin no Reginliev, Nintendogs, that submarine game for the 3DS... I dunno. I think Nintendo gets more flak than they deserve because their franchises are just that much more popular.

Fun fact: Back when Mario 64 came out, I noticed the trees would turn with the camera. In my 10-year-old mind, I thought it was awesome. Today, I see these kinds of trees and grass and I understand the limitations that require this sort of thing. I've tried building trees several different ways... And this is by far the best way to do low-poly trees. Not to say the trees here couldn't look better -- there's flat planes of leaves where an umbrella would look nicer -- but there is a reason games still use this method, and that's because nothing actually looks better for the same poly count.
