So I'm using Zelda Dungeon's excellent walkthroughs last night to play through 2 games I never played through as a child: Legend of Zelda and Zelda 2. I was really shocked by the inclusion of the manji symbol in LoZ. I know it's a Buddhist symbol for luck or whatever, but c'mon: the implication in the Western world is that it reminds people of a swastika, so why include it?
But I'm even more shocked by the art design of the Wizzrobes and the representation of the Thunder spell on the site (manual as well?) which couldn't have been more clear that they looked like a member of the KKK and the SS patch.
Is this just a case of "look what we included, aren't we edgy?" I'm sort of angered by whoever was in charge for their tounge-in-cheek inclusion of such designs to be associated with such classic games.
