Twilight Princess=AMAZING
It's everything that you knew Zelda could be. This game is serously blowing my mind, it delivers all the stuff that makes up a Zelda game, but presents it in a different manner. For instance, I stumbled into a potion shop and didn't know it. It was just some beat down stand in the middle of the forest, I approached a bird with an afro and he told me to look over his goods. There were none of the tradmark potion bottles anywhere, so I was like, "What's he selling?" The potion, thick and bubbly, was being kept in two large animal skinned cauldron type things. You scooped it out yourself with an empty bottle! YOU SCOOPED IT OUT YOURSELF!! For some reason this was so exciting to me, I guess it's beacuse after years, and years, and years, and years, of playing Zelda, not once were you able to fetch your own potion. It was always just presented to you, floating ever so magically above your head or in your hands, but this was the first real time the potion was attainable. Link could have touched it if he wanted to, dipped his finger in, or got his face real close. NO LONGER IS POTION BEHIND THE COUNTER!! Don't even get me started on the Deku Seeds. I swoon!
Also, you can be a wolf, which kinda sounds cheesy at first, but it's done so well and it brings in some really interesting gameplay. Very fun, very cool.
I was going to pull an all nighter to play it, but I got tripped up in the beginning and it took me a LOONNNNNGGGGG time to figure something out. So I figured I'd play alttle, but not save, so I could start again from the beginning without that hideous time blemish on my save file. Thus making it totally retarded to play all night since it would be for nothing.
Ooooh I can't wait til after school tomorrow, I'm gonna play allllllllll night.
Also, Joe Frank doesn't like "A Link to the Past" (my favorite)
W-T-F!? WTF!!!!
Before I go to bed I just want to add, that while thus far the Wii has exceeded my expectations, I am as of right now, severely disappointed by the virtual console. You buy "Wii Points" with your credit card, which is okay. It's ten bucks for 1000 points and it goes: NES=500 points, SNES=800 points, N64=1000 points, Genesis=800 points, TurboGrafx-16=600 points(somebody name me a game from that, without aid of the internet. Tuffington, I'm looking at you.)
Maybe I'm just cheap, but those prices seem a little steep to me. I mean, who wants to pay 10 bucks for a downloaded version of Super Mario 64? If I were purchasing a physical cartridge it would be another story, those are actually produced and take effort to distribute, but to charge ten dollars for something that technically isn't even there, seems a little much.
