Oracle of Ages, Part 8: In Which I Spend Ages Throwing Meat Around

May 27, 2009 14:33

Well now. It certainly has been a while, hasn't it? I apologize. It's at least partially because I was having computer problems (and, for a while, lack-of-computer problems) but also partially because I'm just plain lazy. Er. So yeah. I will try not to have months between episodes again, though.

( island adventures? )

ASDF just remembered how much I loved this game as a kid and my copy doesn't work any more, ARGH

I so know what you mean about Wild Tokay! I think that was absolutely my least favourite of the many, many minigames in the Oracles games. Because sometimes those Tokay would be so darn picky about when they wanted to grab the meat. ...Wait. Tokay are meat-eaters? Now that I think about it, that's slightly scary. What would they have done with Link if he hadn't woken up?!

It's always sad when a beloved game doesn't work anymore. And that does tend to happen... that's why I'm almost glad I can't find my old copy of Pokemon Silver; if I could, it probably wouldn't work anymore, and I'd know that all my very first Pokemon were gone. But as long as I can't check, they'll always be there, just as they were, in my memory.

...okay, I may be just a little too sentimental about a few pixels and strings of data. Anyway, I digress.

Yes, I remember the first time I played, I had a really hard time with Wild Tokay, but I eventually got good enough at it that my friends would ask me to play it for them to get past it. NOT ANYMORE, APPARENTLY.

Oh dear, Link-kabob! Actually, what do they get those giant hunks of meat from? It must be something big enough to have a single bone that's almost as long as Link is tall... how confusing.

This is why we need that proposed handheld Virtual Console. ...Or more remakes. HeartAges and SoulSeasons, anyone?

Just be thankfull that they didn't steal his tunic as well! XD

Yes, if it weren't for the ears, he'd look just like a normal Tokay.
It's all because of the tunic.

I'm guessing that there was a real Tokay with no tail hanging around 100 years ago... But I'm only guessing.
