So I've got a week off work. I could play Tales of Symphonia, I could attempt to finish Baten Kaitos, or I could even get back to finally starting Beyond Good & Evil.

But no, I've spent the last 4 days playing Zelda: The Minish Cap on my GameCube. I got bored of it a while ago and thought I might as well give it a go. It's not as bad as the Oracles games on Game Boy Color...

I've been hooked on it. My eyes are exploding from concentrating too hard at the screen. Many moments have I wasted time running around in circles trying to figure out what to do when the obvious is right infront of my face all the time. Then I get a little further and frustrate myself on the next puzzle.

It's no Link to the Past beater, however, it's come close for me...mainly because of the inclusion of Gannon's Theme from the original cartoon series and original NES game! I was so suprised to hear that music through my speakers that I felt a wave of nostalgia hit me.

I love The Minish Cap!

Oracles was good.

Not in my opinion - though I shouldn't have to say that, since that first message was my opinion...

Not to mention it should be 'Oracles were good'. There were two games. Therefore its plural. :P

I've almost completed Minish Cap. Not yet though... and I've actually found it far better than A Link to the Past.

It's a fantastic game.
Shame mine's got a bug in it, meaning I can't finish it 100%, which is rather annoying.

But, ho-hum, still a gem.

Sell it on ebay/trade it in, and buy another copy - means you have to play all through it again...but it's Minish Cap!

Oracles was alright.

Link's Awakening > All Zelda handheld games ever.

I'm stuck on the Minish Cap, therfore I have stopped playing it for a while, but I will return to it someday.

I'm plugging away at Baten Kaitos right now - SO amazing, however the voice acting is atrocious. Lucky there is an option to turn it off :)

And Edgy, you have seriously got to start Beyond Good and Evil. SO good :D

Good thing the Revolution is backwards compatable...if I don't get round to it by then, I've got something to play when I get bored of the release games :D

After all, you know there's gonna be a dry patch, like there is now for DS, like there was for GameCube's launch and like there was for Game Boy Advance...
