[color=indigo]Problem... No Zelda option on the poll... So I can't vote... Even though the Zelda forum isn't very active sometimes, I really enjoy talking about Zelda and helping people out with the games. Nintendo comes in a close 2nd, with Final Fantasy and Pokémon tied for 3rd.[/color]

[color=indigo]Yesterday (about 6 hours ago) I got all 96 goals for the second time. The first time I used Mario, and the second time I used Luigi. I have to say that I like Luigi a lot more in Super Mario Advance 2 than in the first one. Mainly because you seem to jump and fall faster than in the first one. Really, that's the only thing I don't like about Luigi... I don't like how he kind of floats up, and then back down when he jumps. I found myself using a Yoshi a lot more than when I played through on Mario; with a Yoshi, you jump just like normal. Anyway, who do you prefer, Mario or Luigi, and why?[/color]

[color=indigo][size=1]I like Pierce Brosnan... *gets slapped with a wet fish* Ow! And shouldn't it be a wet noodle? *gets slapped with a wet noodle* Agh! Stop that! :blackeye:[/size] I'm not really sure why I like Pierce Brosnan... I just do, I guess... :whoops:[/color]

[color=seagreen][size=1]Good! Start posting again! Now, if only the other people would start again...[/size][/color] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [color=indigo]Drake: I'm sure you do... Orion: Oh yes, we get along great! :rolleyes: Drake: Right... [I]Drake walks up to the door, and slowly pushes it open. It doesn't make a sound against the smooth walls of ice.[/I] Drake: Cool! these doors will never need to be oiled! Siren: Do they even have hinges? [I]Drake looks at the door...[/I] Drake: Well, that's odd... They don't... Orion: How does it stay in place, then? Drake: Beats me... Kizu: Shall we move along? Drake: Oh, right, yes... [I]He pushes the door all the way open. The floor of the chamber inside is a shiny blue color, and is much more slippery than in the previous room.[/I] Drake: Woah! Watch your step! [I]He slides on the ice, trying to keep his balance.[/I] Siren: What's that? [I]She points to something huddled in the far corner of the room.[/I] Kizu: I've never seen anything like it before. Drake: Looks... Looks like a green penguin... Orion: Only bigger... and with a sharper beak... Drake: Maybe it's asleep... Lets try to sneak past it... [I]They move across the ice slowly, towards the other side of the room where a staircase is set in the wall.[/I] Drake: Slowly.... slowly... What the? [I]Drake happened to look up... but to late... Another one of the strange penguin things had been sitting on a ledge, close to the staircase, and it leapt at Drake as he got close...[/I][/color]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by James [/i] [B] [color=royalblue]Yamauchi himself is often not given a lot of credit...or at least, not as much as he should be.[/color][/B][/QUOTE] [color=indigo]Yeah, I know. I think he deserves a lot more credit than he gets. Without him, Nintendo wouldn't be what it is. Who knows, it could still be Marufuku Co. Ltd. and still be making playing cards in Japan... Which would mean the NES wouldn't have been around to pull the video game industry out of its slump... And video games probably wouldn't be nearly as popular or succesful as they are. Maybe Atari would still be around making consoles? So many possibilties...[/color]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Blanko_el-miez [/i] [B]i am kinda burnt out on pokemon .......... yellow,red,blue,green,silver,gold,and crystal [/B][/QUOTE] [color=indigo]Green? Did you import it from Japan, then?[/color]

[color=seagreen]I think it's just you and me again. If no one else is going to post anymore, I don't think I want to keep going... It's just not very fun with only two people...[/color]

[color=indigo]I'd love to have a Zapdos with the color pattern of Electabuzz, with some of the yellow replaced with red. Mmmm... Lightning/fire type Legendary Bird... *hopes that there'll be one in the next Pokémon game* Mmmm...[/color]

In Oracle of Ages, I bought the Flute but I still got Dimitri...[/color]

[color=indigo]Ah, one of [i]those[/i] rooms... I hate those puzzles... What you have to do, is, change the color of the floor from blue to red (except the tile in the middle of the room), by stepping on the floor tiles. However, you can't go over a tile that you've already changed to red. So, here's how you do it, step by step (literally) :) From the tile in front of the door, go one space west, one space north, two spaces east, one space north, two spaces west, and four spaces north. You should now be in the northwest corner of the room. From there, go one space east, two spaces south, one space east, one space south, and one space east. You should now be on the west side of the middle tile. From there, go three spaces north, five spaces east (you should be in the northeast corner), two spaces south, one space west, two spaces south, one space east, and two spaces south. You should now be in the southeast corner of the room. From there, go five spaces west, one space north, one space east, one space north, one space east, one space south, one space east, four spaces north, two spaces west, one space south, one space east, and finally one space south. All of the floor tiles should now be red, and a treasure chest will appear on the center floor tile; it contains the Switch Hook. It may look confusing, but if you read it as you play the game it shouldn't be too hard to follow. :)[/color]

[color=indigo]Been a long time since I did that... The first Small Key that you get is in the very first room of the Temple. It's up on a tree, and you need to use the Hookshot to get it. The second Small Key is in the room due north of the elevator room (the big, main one, with the four torches). You'll go through a hallway, and then you'll have to fight two Stalfos Knights for it. The third Small Key is down in the well, which is in the eastern courtyard, on the first floor. To drain the well you'll have to climb up the vines on the east wall of the western courtyard, and go through the room with the Dungeon Map, out onto a balcony. Hookshot to another balcony with a switch, and hit the switch to drain the well. Then you can jump down off the balcony and go down into the well. Using these three Small Keys, I [i]think[/i] you should be able to get to the Fairy Bow. There's also a Small Key in a room west of the western courtyard, but I don't remember how to get to it. I don't think you can get to it, before you get the Fairy Bow, though. Hope this helps, and good luck! :)[/color]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Sephiroth [/i] [B] erm.....a close childhood friend perhaps? :drunk: it appears to me that some of the zelda adventures have basically different timelines set out in alternate universes....or something :smooch: [/B][/QUOTE] [color=indigo]The reason for this, is because almost every new Zelda game is set before the last one... Which makes for some adjusting of the story, and that makes it so it doesn't quite fit with the older games. I'm just wondering when the next Zelda game will be set, since it can't get any farther back than Ocarina of Time. Perhaps it will be set after all of the others? I [i]really[/i] want to know what happens after Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. What happens after Link wakes up Zelda? Take a look at the game over screen (see attachment). If we go by my theory, then Ganon couldn't have deen destroyed in Oracle of Ages/Seasons, but just kept sealed. I'm wondering if Ganon does return, somehow, after The Adventure of Link and that the game is about that. Since Link and Zelda have the Triforce (as shown in the opening cinema in Oracle of Ages/Seasons), maybe you'll actually get to use it to fight Ganon? I think that would be really cool. You could have a lot more magic, like in The Adventure of Link, using the Triforce. I can really ramble on, when it comes to the story, can't I? :D[/color]

[color=indigo]I was talking about the development of the games, not the franchise as a whole. I agree that without Yamauchi, Pokémon probably wouldn't be what it is today, but I was talking about who first started development on Pokémon; and that was Game Freak. Nintendo probably worked with Game Freak on the development, but Game Freak had started before that. Nintendo is what made it what it is today, a worldwide franchise, but Game Freak started it. I think we were in agreement without knowing it, Lol. :)[/color]

[color=indigo]Which issue of EGM, and what section/article? Don't remember seeing it...[/color]

[color=indigo]Drake: Weird guy... Do you know him? Ken: No... Drake: Hmmm... [I]Drake lowers his hood, revealing a long black ponytail.[/I] Ken: ...How do you fit all that hair inside that hood?... Drake: It's a big hood... Ken: Are you hiding something beneath that trench coat? Drake: Heh... So you noticed... [I]He pulls aside one side of his trench coat, to reveal a small rocket launcher, and six hand grenades on his belt.[/I] Ken: I can see you like blowing things up... :smirk: Drake: Yes, I do. And I use Sense to tell just were the weak spot of something is. :demon: [I]Ken notices the yellow command Materia set in the handle of the rocket launcher. There's the slot that the Sense Materia is in, and another two linked slots; both empty.[/I] Ken: Not one for magic? Drake: Not much, no. But it does comes in useful sometimes...[/color]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by gundamcat17 [/i] [B]with a balrog chasing him.. [/B][/QUOTE] [color=indigo]Lets see Legolas beat Ganon, from Ocarina of Time... You wouldn't see Link running from a Balrog, he'd stay and fight like Gandalf did... And woop the thing with his Light and Ice Arrows. Shadow and fire? No problem! :smirk:[/color]

[color=indigo]Ckeck out my [URL=http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?postid=168825]walkthrough[/URL] for Level 6, Ancient Ruins. It tells how to beat Manhandla.[/color]

[color=indigo]There's a flaw in your theory... At the start of A Link to the Past, that's Link's uncle that goes off to try and save Princess Zelda. Take a look at this screen shot from the ending sequence in the game:[/color]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Herman Nation [/i] [B] No the processor in the Dremcast is 64 bit so there...it says so on the box...:lecture: :lecture: [/B][/QUOTE] [color=indigo]I says on [URL=http://www.sega.com/games/dreamcast/hardware.jhtml]Sega's website[/URL] that it has a 128 bit processor. Take a look.[/color]

[color=indigo]No, Satoshi Tajiri did, the founder and president of Game Freak. In number 124 of Electronic Gaming Monthly (November 1999), there's a big article about Pokémon. At the very beginning it says, and I quote: "The story goes something like this: When he was a kid in Japan, Satoshi Tajiri would stalk bugs. He'd capture them. He'd collect them in jars. He wanted to make them fight like the rubber-suit monsters of his favorite flicks. He wanted to catch them all. Sound familiar? Now in his 30s, Tajiri, the founder and president of Game Freak, has taken this hobby and turned it into something bigger than a game, bigger than a movie, bigger than a toy line. The inventor of Pokémon, Tajiri has unleased a global pop-culture phenomenon that has made more money than Poké-icon Pikachu can shoot sparks--$5 billion in worldwide merchandising sales. American gamers have bought 4 million copies of Pokémon Red and Blue. The animated series, now in its second season, is the top rated kids' show in the country. Nintendo's Pokémon training tour crams malls with 10,000 kids at every stop." Those are the first two paragraghs of the article. It clearly states that Satoshi Tajiri, the founder and president of Game Freak, created Pokémon. EGM has always been pretty reliable, so I don't think this is wrong.[/color]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Squashed Snail [/i] [B] It's on the GBC?! Where'd you get it from? [/B][/QUOTE] [color=indigo]Both Mario Tennis and Mario Golf were released for the GBC, shortly after they were released on the N64. If you have both versions of Mario Tennis or Mario Golf, you can trade data between them with the Transfer Pak. Mario Tennis for the GBC has a kind of story, too. Not sure if Mario Golf for the GBC does.[/color]

[color=indigo]Drake: I had it specially made, if you must know... Who's this guy? Ken: That guy can swing harder than I thought! [I]He rubs a bruise on his arm.[/I] Drake: Heheh... Ken: My name's Ken... Where did you come from? Drake: The alley beside the shop. Name's Drake. Ken: Where did you get a-- Drake: Hooded trench coat, right? Ken: Yeah... Drake: *sigh* [I]He shakes his head.[/I] Drake: I had it specially made... Why, what's wrong with it? Ken: Nothing... Drake: So what were you two doing in the item shop? It's supposed to be closed.[/color]

[color=indigo]The only way I know of getting Chocographs is by playing Chocobo Hot and Cold in the Chocobo Forest, Chocobo Lagoon, and Chocobo Sky Garden. I have them all, and that's how I got them.[/color]

[color=indigo]I have them, and I think they're great! My only problem with them, is that there are too many minigames that you have to do to move on with the story. Like the Goron Dancing in Ages. I [i]hate[/i] that!!![/color]
