Haha really? That's cool.

But I must agree, every Zelda game has some great aspects.

Ever notice how Link can instantly master any instrument he gets? Can play anything with no practice. Now that's talent. He can play a flute, an ocarina, a pan flute, can howl on-key, and can conduct too!

Well, a little practice. But he still has inhuman natural talent. I know if I picked up any of those instruments, I'd be atrocious and off-key all the time.

I expect Ganon to be absent from this one, sequel to MM and all.

...hmm... i just remembered there were a lot of epileptic trees about Majoras mask itself and Midnas helmet. I wonder...

Please. If they really want to bring the guy back, they will.

Of course, to me, it won't mean a thing to me, as long as Aonuma and crew seem to have a hard-on for using the red-headed dork, instead of the big blue Pig. Good grief, what would it take to bring the REAL Ganon back, hm?

I like Ganondorf as much as Ganon. And I also like dual wielding Ganon. But what we REALLY need is Ganon with his Trident of Power. I don't think we have ever seen the Trident of Power in a 3D Zelda.

And that is awful.

Sure, but they do tend to skip him every other game or so.

He should pull that out of his ass more than the ASS-SWORD like in Brawl.

Damn right.  8)

I mean, my thing with Ganondorf is that he's pretty much all but replaced the Blue Pig, the REAL Ganon, here lately. That's a pretty big stab in the heart of an old head fan like myself. He hasn't even appeared in Smash Bros, a series which is supposed to represent and honor Nintendo and the rich history thereof! Yet, the red headed punk-ass does! No respect for the original creation!  ;O;

For me, the pig doesn't have to be blue, or even trident-wielding, but I at least demand a biped with some manner of weapon.  The TP Beast Ganon just doesn't do it for me.  OoT's kicked major ass, though.

Ganondorf is the more human form, while Ganon is the personification of his deepest desires.
Yes they are the same thing but the triforce of Power changed him when it read his wishes, making him an all powerful beast.

A 2d Zelda, he appeared in OoS/OoA and FSA. He would probably also appear like that in the WW art style, but for some odd reason Nintendo choice to exclude that form...

I never did understand one thing: Ganondorf is always the name associated with his human form, while Ganon is the name of his beast form. So, why the hell did they call him just Ganon in Wind Waker? (localization?)

Because in WW, his deepest desire wasn't [parasitic bomb]loads of power like in OoT? Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't he want to bring Hyrule back to the surface and claim its wind or some weird, convoluted madness that time around? Maybe Ganon is just his name while in the state where his deepest desires are being granted; and since he wasn't quite as power-hungry this time around, didn't turn into some hulking pig to gain the name?

/crackpot theories

He wanted Hyrule for his people. Since he was Gerudo he lived in the harsh desert lands, and wanted something better for his people. Thus, he wanted Hyrule.

I seriously hope that the controls are a little more intuitive than that video seems to convey.

Commander Shepard: *stares blankly at a video of scantily clad asari dancers* ...What kind of hotel is this?
Liara T'Soni: It is a luxury resort with an... exotic edge.  Azure is slang for a part of the asari body in some places on Illium.
Shepard: Where?
Liara: The lower reaches, near the bottom.
Shepard: I meant, "where on the asari body?"
Liara: So did I.

Considering Miyamoto's technical difficulties at the show, they look pretty intuitive to me in that video.


What happens in Vegas stays on Youtube. I also stream on Twitch from time to time.

I'm actually inclined to believe them about their claims of technical difficulties on stage, since every hands-on report I've read has said the controls are rather smooth and responsive.
