Oh, this isn't at all in my budget. I'll have to make quite a few sacrifices to do this. Like, eat nothing but Ramen on days when my daughter is with her mom. But I know I'm going to regret this forever if I don't get this before scalpers triple the price down the road.

I pre-ordered the TOTK Switch (and the game) today. I already have a Switch. But I know my five-year-old daughter is going to want to have her own Switch some day, so I might as well get this beautiful limited edition and give my daughter the old one when the time is right. She already loves...

Hi, I'm trying to 100% Skyward Sword one more time before Tears of the Kingdom comes out, and there's an oddity at the exterior walls of Lanayru Mining Facility. The stone blocks sticking out of the ground level walls are not sticking out equally far. Most of them have the bigger block maybe...

The Metroid Prime remaster is almost exclusively a visual enhancement with very few changes and optional new control schemes, otherwise it's the old game. I don't think there was anything to hide behind an Amiibo. I guess they could have given us a Metroid Dread skin, like the Fusion suit in the...

Shadow of the Colossus came out for PS2, and was then remade for PS3 and PS4. The PS4 remake was more than a simple 1:1 port, which TP and WW would be.

The Collector's Edition for Gamecube had the two NES Zeldas, the two N64 Zeldas and a short "Retrospective", seen here: I must have watched this a hundred times back when I first got it. While I had played the first five games on the consoles of friends and family members quite a bit, the...

Midna's Lament: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_JPIK6pUC4 This must have been hard to coordinate.

The Gutters by Ryan Sohmer and various artists feature funny commentary on whatever happens in the world of superhero comic books. Since the US edition of Hyrule Historia is released by comic book publisher Dark Horse, Zelda and Link are now fair game for Sohmer as well. Here is what he came up...

And yet later, Link steps through the portal, which is then destroyed by Impa. Back in the present, the portal should already be destroyed, but instead it exists long enough for Link to step out of it. How is that possible?

Yeah, but the thing is: He doedn't always activate them directly. Sometimes, he strikes them with his sword, sometimes with an arrow, sometimes the beetle drops a bomb on them. In those cases, shouldn't the beetle or even just the bomb be the only thing that gets transported back? It's not like...

5. Final Fantasy VII (PSX) 4. Silent Hill (PSX) 3. The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (SNES) 2. Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem (GCN) 1. Tetris (Game Boy)

This is far from official, and there is no mention of Nintendo giving him the license to do it, but Joe Madureira (Uncanny X-Men, Avenging Spider-Man, Ultimates, Battle Chasers) wants to do a Legend of Zelda comic book series...

Link, my boy, this peace is what all true warriors strives for...

I need more sources before I believe this, but I guess diluting the Sonic concept like that does sound like Sega.

Not a big update, but noteworthy: In Germany (possibly all of Europe), we can download the free Eurosport channel from the 3DS shop. Through spotpass, this channel downloads 3D sport clips. Right now, it's nothing but collections of short clips, America's Funniest Homevideo style (car crashes...

The update is available here in Europe. I can confirm a Mario Kart 7 puzzle (40 pieces, eight of which cannot be bought with play coins) and a sequel to Find Mii/Streetpass Quest, complete with new hats (I've unlocked a Top Hat, a Yoshi Hat and an Arwing Hat). Also, there are now achievements...

They didn't complain about a lack of realism. They complained about bad anti-aliasing and shoddy textures in some places. Stuff that is bad even for the Wii. Stuff that doesn't have anything to do with the art style.

I concur. I loved Arkham Asylum with its mix of Metroid and Splinter Cell, and its faithfulness to the comic books. And Arkham City is pushing the envelope even further. Better graphics, less linearity, a Gotham City full of life... Hype or no hype, the game is fantastic.

Time doesn't matter when magic is involved. There's no reason to assume that magic is involved this time around, however. And if it's just natural evolution, what evolutionary advantage would loftwings gain from becoming cuccos?

Hey, everyone, as ZeldaDungeon has already covered, the German Gamepro magazine gave SWS a whopping 93%. Just to put that score into perspective, Arkham City got 95%, Uncharted 3 got 94%, Rage got 84%, Super Mario 3D Land got 92%, Sonic Generations 87% and X-Men: Destiny got 54% (at least on PS3...

I concur. Batman: The Animated Series has got to be the best cartoon of my childhood, especially the earlier seasons.

5.: Paprika. Possibly the greatest movie by the late, great visionary director Satoshi Kon (Millennium Actress, Perfect Blue, Tokyo Godfathers). This adaptation of the novel by Yasutaka Tsutsui is an anime and uses all of the strengths of that medium. This couldn't have worked as a...

They are here in Germany as well. Important adviice. Thanks.

Still no games in Germany... I haven't been this impatient in quite a while.

Free games. Yes, I've got a few of them myself, but not on the 3DS. And did I mention that they are free? That we don't have to pay for them? Don't complain. Nintendo wasn't forced to do this. They could just as well have given us nothing, and we still wouldn't have a right to complain. That...

It's irrelevant how much you paid for the 3DS. It's only important if you have visited the eShop before August 12. Have you visited the eShop before that date? Did you download the free Excitebike, or the Pokedex, or the 3DS trailers for Kid Icarus, Paper Mario, etc? Or did you pay for a Virtual...

It has to be Saria. How else would Darunia have learned her song? Either he visited Kokiri Village (I have a hard time imagining that), or Saria has left the village before Link did.

I can confirm that they are NOT available yet here in Germany.

There is no "may or may not be". This is not a trailer, much less one for one specific game. And while they will eventually create a Zelda game for the Wuu, there are no plans to include the Armorgohma fight from the tech demo, or the art style, or the menu structure, or anything from that tech...

I'm working two subway stations away from GamesCom. And I'll have two work eight to ten hours on every single day of the convention. So close, and yet so far. This is frustrating.

If you made it that far before you quit, you probably had a lot of fun with the game. Solving sidequests, collecting items, heart pieces and skulltulas, defeating bosses, following the plot. The rest of the game is exactly that. If the water temple is all that prevented you from continuing the...

Has anyone seen the movie Cube? It had hundreds of cube-shaped rooms, some (but not all) of them filled with gory deathtraps. And a complicated mechanism constantly changed the order of the rooms. In a Zelda Dungeon, that complicated mechanism would be replaced with magic, most of the...

First of all, swords stronger than the Master sword are not ironic. That being said, the Master Sword was initially created for one game: A Link to the Past. Back when they made that game, there were no plans for a sequel, much less for the Master Sword to appear in one. Which is evident when...

That's not exactly true. Nintendo has stated that they currently have no plans to release those titles. That doesn't mean that they won't get shuffled in a year or two from now. Once they made it past the Minish Caps, Golden Suns, Fire Emblems, Pokemons and Metroid Zero Missions, they'll realize...

I've had an Atari 800 XL and an Atari ST. I still have a Sega Mega Drive (AKA Genesis), a Nintendo Gameboy (the classic gray brick), a Gameboy Advance, a Gamecube, Xbox, Playstation 2, a Wii, a DS lite and a 3DS. I'll most likely get an Xbox 360 in December and a PS3 in 2012.

I really liked the game. Sure, it was very linear, but I liked the characters and the world, and the graphics were awesome at the time it was released. I wish it had been a bigger success, opening the door for more Zelda-like Action Adventures. I mean, we had Neutopia I and II on the Turbografx...

Well, it's still not clear what the planet is called. From what we know, Hyrule could be the name of the land, the continent, the planet, or even all three. I guess it boils down to how you interpret the creation myth told by the Deku Tree. Did the Goddesses create just a little island, or did...

Close. When facing several explanations, Occam's Razor suggests picking the one that has the least amount of new assumptions. It doesn't say that the simplest explanation will definitely be the correct one. Four elements (Fire, Water, Earth and Wind) are simpler than 118 elements (Hydrogen...

http://www.blisteredthumbs.net/2011/08/top-10-nintendo-overworlds-jontron/ Guess which Zelda title makes his list? Warning: Bad language (at times. It's a bit inconsistent).

"It's kinda good if he dies"?! Be careful, that way of thinking is a very slippery slope.

It's jellybeans. I can carry hundreds of jellybeans in real life. They don't exactly weigh a lot, and they are very small.

First wish: Wisdom to use the other two wishes well. Second wish (unless the wisdom I got from wish one gives me a better idea): Modesty, so that I won't feel bad in case the third wish ends up being something utterly altruistic. Third wish: No idea yet, but the combined wisdom and modesty from...

I can't find the link right now, but I'm 100% sure that Aonuma and/or Miyamoto have said that Ocarina of Time was the first game in the timeline before Skyward Sword was developed. That would make OoT the second game in the timeline, not Minish Cap/FS/FSA or any other game.

It's very close to the Temple of Time, though. And in OoT, the temple and the Deku Tree were a lot farther apart.

I'm not familiar with Australia, but in the rest of the world, you don't click on any specific button, and you don't get any message. Just connect your 3DS to the internet, install the system update if you haven't already and visit the eshop. That's it.

I always thought that the enemies summoned by Skull Kid were Dekus farther down the evolutionary tree.

If he can carry an infinite amount of shrunk items, why does he need bigger wallets, quivers and bomb bags? It's best not to think about it.

No, we don't need to be concerned. If anything, this (combined with the games launching later this year, like Super Mario 3D Land and Kid Icarus) will get the 3DS in even more hands. Which means that even more people are likely to buy games, which is where Nintendo makes most of its profit anyway.
