I'm happy to say that I finished the Minish cap before it was even released.

sorry for the delay
kickass dude, the trailer so nice I watched it twice.

I loved the idea of fighting the Goron, I've wanted to have a smackdown with those fuckers ever since they kept running my ass over on the way to Goron villiage in Orcania. This'll be some serious therapy.

Mildly disappointed with one thing, just in general, Nintendo always ends up putting out these sick games that really push the limits of thier machines right at the end of thier life cycle before the next gen systems hit. Sure, they look great, but dangit, I want more!

I'm really loving Minish Cap. I've spent so many hours on it, and enjoyed it all. I have every heart except for 1.5 of them and I have reached the last boss, except I didn't have full bottles of life so I'm going back to beat him next time. I love it! Collecting all the figurines will be a major bitch.

Oh yeah the other thing about Wind Waker was the final boss was easy as pie. I was like "What the hell, that was it?"

At last, a form of online play. If this comes with Smash bros at launch I will be buying it for sure.

Just wait a bit and it will drop to $100 when PS3 kills it.

it's pretty interesting that neither nintendo nor sony nor ms are developing their own graphics chipset, with two of them being supplied by ati and one by nvidia. actually, revolution and xbox next will both have ati graphics chipsets and ibm processors, albeit custom ones.

ocarina's graphics were ugly, since it was on the crappy 64. i *heart* windwaker, although i'd have to agree that there needed to be more dungeons. i thought the sailing was fun! maybe i'm just easily amused.
if Revolutions is anywhere near as cool as the trailer looks, i'm play da FUCK out of it. and i like that it looks kinda dark and creepy; i'd rather ride a scary horse and kill mosters than trot along with a unicorn and spread rainbows and love everywhere.
i haven't played the minish cap

2005 so far is pretty cool entertainment wise.
I know this is a real heartless thing to say, but wouldn't it suck if there was another major terrorist attack and everyone decided that life was too sacred for video games and movies and we all had that 'Will anything be funny again?' thing that lasted through September and the beginning of October?
Oh, CIA. Hold me through 2005, then you can let go. Let me see EPIII and play Zelda before you can't hold back the hordes anymore!

Preorder the new Zelda and you get Windwaker with the new graphics.
Info from a reliable source.

Man, these pre-order bonuses keep getting better and better.

I wish they'd just cheap out and give a disc w/ the NES/SNES & early gameboy games, though.

My info came from a Gamestop newsletter to employees. I don't think they'd lie in one of those.

The sailing started out fun, but having to change the direction of the wind any time you wanted to change directions was extremely annoying!!!!

And you're crazy for thinking Ocarina's graphics sucked, they were awesome back then.

And.. umm. Oh yeah I finished Minish Cap last night, awesome game!

Redoing Wind Waker in different graphics would be stupid. I would pre-order it tho, of course. But it would still be stupid.

I still have to finish Majora but it's been so long I have no clue where I left off.

as long as I get a pre-order Zelda bonus game, I'm happy. Whatever that'll be.

I saw that Zelda compilation game thing used for $50 but I hate the owner of that store and don't want to give him any business. Plus I don't really need it.. it just seems cool.

I got 2 of the 4 game pack for free, and 1 copy of the OoT/OoT Japenese version game pack for 5 bucks.

I preordered Wind Waker and got the OoT version.
I brought my gamecube back to Walmart, said it was broke and took the version with Zelda in exchange.
And I got a 4 Gamepack version from Nintendo for free.

I only have the Ocarina Master Quest thing from Wind Waker. Do you have any of those other extras left?

Nope sorry.
I have the one OoT one for myself, and this one for myself too.

The extra one that I got from Nintendo, I gave to my cousin (Thalus sp) because he wasn't going to bring back his Gamecube to Walmart. : /

Dammit Thalus, if only you had followed through!

Do you think that thing is worth $50? That would be Canadian. Plus 15% tax!!!

Probly not worth it.

Yeah guys the redone Windwaker thing is fake. Nintendo has confirmed this for us. GameStop employees got fooled along with everyone else.


The new Zelda game looks better than I could have ever imagined. Even more polish than RE4. I never knew the little cube had that much spunk.

The graphics look pretty good but I wasn't blown away. Well, at the zombie part I was like whoa. RE4 is better looking but I have way more experience with that and then just a few viewings of a trailer for Zelda. Guess we'll find out.
