    Why Not Ganondorf?

    Most people don't make such a distinction between Ganondorf and Ganon. They're almost always the same entity. However I agree with you. If Link does not fight Ganondorf or Ganon, he will fight some other evil entity that is bent on destroying/conquering the world. The only real difference is the...

    Hardest Zelda Console Game

    edit: Oh, if the NES games are excluded, then it's A Link to the Past without question. I still die ten or twelve times a playthrough in this, and I've played it more times than I'd care to admit. ;)

    General Classic Termina or Hyrule?

    Within the context of Classic Zelda, I think I'd do well to take it one comparison at a time. MM versus the world? :P Termina vs. LoZ Hyrule: Hyrule wins easily. The overworld secrets are so cool. LoZ Hyrule probably has more of those than Majora's Mask has sidequests. Termina vs. AoL Hyrule...

    Spoiler (Alttp) The Link´s Wish

    Judging from the Triforce's wording and from Link's actions in the ending scene, I don't believe it was a spoken wish. The Triforce instantly knew what Link desired, and I think that was for the world to go back to the way it was before Agahnim.

    Adventure of Link Is Zelda II:the Adventure of Link Really That Bad?

    AoL ranks about fifth on my Zelda favorites list, so I'd submit that it is in fact that good. AoL's overworld leaves a little to be wanted, in terms of both secrets and fast navigation. Other than those two tidbits, I like everything about AoL. The leveling system works pretty well, and makes...

    Ocarina of Time Ocarina of Time. Twilight Princess

    The graphical style is certainly similar, and to me, the game feels a lot like Ocarina of Time. However, Twilight Princess has its own set of tricks. Gameplay-wise, I can think of quite a few differences. Keep in mind that Twilight Princess is supposed to take place not terribly long after...

    If You Could Have Any Character in Brawl Who Would it be?

    The Balloon Fighter from Balloon Fight. He's the Hero of Dangerous Things You Shouldn't Try at Home, and he'd probably have some pretty funny tactics.

    Is Ww Intended for Children???

    I'm playing through it for the first time right now, and I'll say... those must be some smart kids! Some of these dungeon puzzles are pretty challenging. They're certainly reaching out to children with graphical style and some of the game's characters, but I think it's intended to be a fun ride...

    Ocarina of Time The Guards' Uniforms Are Just Awful.

    Maybe it's not their battle garb. According to that one guard inside the Poe Shop, things are supposed to be pretty peaceful in Hyrule. Perhaps the King supports a casual work environment and lets them all run around bottomless while on duty. I envy that. The etiquette explanation is pretty...

    The Worst Zelda Item

    I deleted my original post to rant the following: After some thought, I determined that there is only one Zelda item that I've thought of in a truly negative light. That would definitely be the tree chopping Hammer from AoL. I guess it's my fault for never pressing B while walking through the...

    Your Favorite Zelda Game

    Still A Link to the Past, good sirs and madams. I suppose this is mostly because of nostalgia and its amazing soundtrack. I can't really say that I like its gameplay more than any other Zelda. In that, it ties with OoT and MM.

    Favorite Handheld Zelda Game?

    It's gotta be Link's Awakening, though I liked Oracle of Seasons a good bit as well. These are the only two handheld titles that I've played, but I'm getting around to playing all of the others! (eventually) I recall being intrigued by the plot of LA, and sufficiently amused by the little in...

    Link's Statue In Majora's Mask

    I think we're seeing a duplicate of Link - except without a soul. Consequently, he looks a little hollow and not quite "complete". To elaborate a little, I'm not sure that this really reflects Link's inner state. It could, but I think it sort of goes against Link's "Hero" archetype. Heroes are...

    What Has Zelda Taught You?

    Do the right thing, even if it's tedious and leads you on some really long and boring sidequest. There is a solution to every problem, so just keep searching until you find one. When in doubt, ask yourself, "What would Link do?"

    Latest Video Game Purchase

    I recently got a copy of LoZ: The Wind Waker on ebay for like 12 bucks. I think I'll go after Four Swords Adventures after finishing this one. :)
