Except that Eiji Aonuma stated that the Four Swords arc (Minish Cap, FS, and FSA) is prior to OoT, with the LttP notions being purely nostalgic.

No, only Minish Cap is pre-OoT, how else do you explain Ganon as the final boss in FSA?

Cute

However, that cap is missing something big, and by that I mean a big V on it.

Forgot to ask...

Figure out the Mario timeline, I dare you.

Is there any reason to believe that it is not in order of release?

With that figured out, the next oddity in the Zelda series would be the Seal War from OoT leading to LttP, but Capcom straightened it out with Four Swords and Four Swords Adventures.

Mind explaining how?

Nintendo's Fall Conference shows why E3 is totally useless now. 

And hey, look at the discussion we all had about just the idea of the patent.  At least Ninty got us talking! 

True, it's just the fanboy reactions that get on my nerves that make me wish that.

Insert Shiggy Just As Planned pic here.

I find it hilarious that E2.5 has only existed for two years and made everyone bail out, meanwhile, E3 '09 from insider reports seems to be going back to the style that made E3 2006 so awesome. God, how I loved live feed from E3 2006.

Which one was that? Shiggy with the Master Sword? I need videos D:

Honestly, after all that happened after last year's E3, I'd SERIOUSLY love if they didn't create anymore.

Interesting reactions, however, I still say wait and see.

I think Felix' and Isaac's Ragnarok skill looks cooler than Megiddo.

(A little confusion here, that attack where they ram a gigantic sword into the enemy is called Ragnarok in the US too, right?)

Yeah, Ragnarok and Odyssey are awesome, but those two are psynergies, and Megiddo is a normal attack. What other RPG lets you drop the Sun on someone as a normal attack? No other RPG, and that's why I love Golden Sun

or smack the sun into people with the Sol Blade.

MEGIDDO FTMFW!

That's, IMO, the best critical hit in any RPG. Most are simply a stronger version of the attack, but in Golden Sun, oh no, that's not enough, you're gonna get the [tornado fang]ing Sun dropped on you

1.-Find a ROM of the first one.
2.-Get all the Djinns and beat it.
3.-Start a new file in GSTLA with your GS password.
4.-Find Dullahan and get your ass kicked. A lot. By a lot I mean hundreds of times.
5.-Finally defeat Dullahan, get the final summon, and brag about how good you are for defeating Dullahan (you deserve it).
6.-? ? ?
7.-Profit

I played a lot of Golden Sun, until I read up that the last boss was just the first two badguys from the beginning of the game.

Fused. As a dragon. A two headed dragon.

My opinion is however that we should get a balance of big highly enjoyable games and great new ways to play/enhance gameplay. That's a pipe dream as long as everyone sees themselves on two sides of the spectrum instead of just gamers.

Agreed, the whole casual/hardcore is what I hate the most about this gen.

Careful.
We all thought Command's stylus-control would be "an option", too.

True, that's why I didn't get it. I didn't give the controls a chance though, so it may not be as bad as I thought.

Bah, to me, such stuff is uncessary. And Nintendo apparently fails to get Star Fox done right since 64 anyway. I would have instantly bought a DS solely for Command but when I heard that you do everything with that stupid pen, I pretty much lost faith in Nintendo. Maybe I'm just to ignorant to innovation, but from my standpoint, Nintendo is pushing me away and towards the competion because they seek new ways of playing games. I got a PSP instead of a DS and a 360 instead of a Wii, simply because on these I can still play it the way I want games to be.

In other words, you're a purist. Am I right?

I liked Star Fox Assault...

So did I, but remember, different is bad D:

I said the rest of the members.

So PB is not member anym...oh wait, mod

Anyways, before someone else does it, I'll have to say that fun is subjective.

My point is that I think it is most odd that a company like Nintendo thinks their games are so hard people cannot beat it without assistance. I know it's supposedly just an optional addon, but the fact that they think such an option should be included in the games feels almost insulting. It's like "Oh, so here's our new game. You might have trouble with it, so we added a feature which shows you how to get it done." If Nintendo thought their games were too hard for the people, why not make them easier in the first place. Then again, something like that would probably cast away a lot of die-hard fans.

I see it more like "here, have this option to watch replays so you don't have to get away from the game and search the internet for a walkthrough."

Sorry, but I respectfully disagree.  A game is about one thing and one thing ONLY.  Having FUN.  It's Entertainment.  It's Leisure Time activity.  It brings NOTHING to the table in the grand scheme of life.  It's SOLE purpose is entertainment.  After all your power ups, all your ranks, all your speedruns, all your levels, all your points, star power, weapon gets, EVERYTHING, at the end of the game the question you have to ask yourself is "Did I Have Fun Playing It?"   That's all that matters, more than game reviews or ranks, more than anything the game itself offers.  All this Hardcore and Casual bullshit means absolutely NOTHING.  It's all about having fun. 

Amen

Yeah, I'm starting to wonder how long Metroid can last. Ridley's been biologically revived, then re-killed.
Samus has lost her original suit TWICE, then gained it back in different ways.
We've had any number of Samus clones.
Supposedly, the last Metroid in the universe is dead (certainly after Fusion, that seems to be the case, although it's really easy to retcon this).
It just seems like anything they do would feel cheap, at best.

The Fedaration had a [tornado fang]ing Metroid cloning facility in Fusion, and Samus is likely an outlaw now. Nintendo can go anywhere with the story.
