This reminds me, anyone ever pick up one of those 20th Anniversary Gameboy Micro's? Those things were gorgeous, but by the time I could finally afford one, I couldn't find one anywhere.

Good Lort, I want this baby. If only they would offer some awesome trade-in deal, on top of the ability to export/import games from one console to the other.
Quality; it's something that isn't talked about much in reviews, but there's obviously a difference between "fun" and "quality", but that doesn't mean quality isn't important, no?
I have to say, the one thing I didn't really like about this game, was there just being *so* much blood.
I want my Mega Man, or better yet, Proto Man costumes, DAMMIT!!!!!!!!
Warren Spector proves, yet again, why he is a genius.
@dragonfliet: I dunno, I wouldn't say it's *bad*, but they could stand to bring back the "Pro's & Con's" addition. I get what you mean, though; it sounds a little like a sales-pitch as it is.
@illiniphase4: The thing is, this really isn't an issue of censorship, so much as business sense overwriting artistic integrity. In truth, I very much doubt their decision had anything to do with sparing peoples' feelings, and I'm skeptical if it even will anyways. But I certainly wouldn't call it a constitutional…
@Desanvium: I'm with you, I'm just saying it's not necessarily a constitutional or censorship issue, so much as just "playing it safe". EA is simply proving that they would rather be the Nickelback of gaming, rather than take a risk for a chance at greatness.
@Desanvium: To be fair, they weren't being told they couldn't make the game; simply that military retailers wouldn't carry it. It could potentially hurt their sales, but they weren't being forced. It sounds to me more like EA did some marketing research, and decided it would be more financially profitable to change…
@illiniphase4: There is a major difference between freedom, and what is perceived to viable options. EA has the right to include the Taliban in their game. However, that doesn't mean their entitled to having their sales unaffected because of it.
@netineti: My god; YES!!!
@enaero: I'm totally with you; I would be buying the shit out of those VC and WiiWare games, if they could actually be played on the go.
@Langlen: Agreed; as awesome as OoT's remake is looking, Majora's Mask would trump it in almost every way.
@Titch: I noticed that, as well. It's such a shame, because Link to the Past had such a charming atmosphere, but Twilight Princess looked like it was trying too hard to be "cool", which was never what Zelda was about.
@osmigos002: So, so true. To me, I say just look at Kingdom Hearts; you may not care for the games, but they're absolutely gorgeous, and it has nothing to do with high-def models; they simply made intelligent choices that worked with their budget.
@battra92: I do agree, Wind Waker was probably the best the Zelda series ever looked. There was just so much personality, and the whole world had a very charming feel to it. Even though I prefer a little more "medieval" affair when it comes to Zelda, Wind Waker really hit the nail on the head as to how the series…
Please, Nintendo, *PLEASE* release a Zelda-themed 3DS bundle! Give it a proper Zelda-inspired look, include this game, and maybe some of the old games for good measure (such as the Oracle games, or Four Swords/Minish Cap?)
Dammit, can't we actually get some *cool* colors? How about Mario and Zelda-themed 3DS's from the get-go?
Such a shame; I absolutely love the design, but have no desire to upgrade my DS Lite.
