In the Mail Box from the playesr, Andrew Martin writes in an has put together a rap for The Legend of Zelda
- It's the Legend of Zelda and it's really bad,
- the creatures in the game are really rad.
- Darknuts move very fast,
- but if you are quick they will not last.
- Polls VOice jump super high,
- but if you watch your speed you will not die.
- Wizrobes move fast I agree,
- but if you get touched you lose a heart of energy.
- I'd like to thank Nintendo for all the fun,
- but I'm sorry to say my rap is done!
