A game that gets effected by sunlight. Quite a good idea for a mild horror game.

It's a shame the game is boring.

Going back today.

Other way round for me.. Link's Awakening was my first Zelda game.

I just couldn't get on with LttP, it was rather a big dissapointment for me.

You could get one of those sun-lamp thingies.

Link's Awakening is good, but it's no Link to the Past.

I'm a little bias mind as A Link to the Past was my first Zelda game.

You think Link to the Past is better than Link's Awakening?

Meh, everyone has their own opinion, but I've played both and LA is by far the most entertaining.

It's true Minish Cap hasn't been released, I'm presuming it'll rule.

I can only speak for A link to the past.

And gerrid STILL isn't on MSN.

Well not really. He's just saying having GB/C compatiability doesn't benefit Nintendo very much. Which is true. He doesn't express any opinions.

I'm quite sure that Edgy is more concerned with what benefits him. Nothing he has said would suggest otherwise. You seem to think that he's said "hurrey Nintendo are making an executive decision I'm so happy!". He has said simply "Nintendo are making an executive decision".

Seriously, wheat are you on about? Nothing anyone has said shows that they enjoy being "treated badly", and it's hardly "bad treatment" anyway. It's not like they're delivering faulty goods at an inflated price, and then not offering good customer service. That's bad treatment.

Except that I doubt many people really care THAT much about GB/C compatibility, and as I have said, if it drives down price and size, while increasing battery life (which is should), then that seems to be keeping gamers happy.

It would be nice to have GB/C compatibility, but it's hardly essential, and if it offers other benefits, then I'm not all that bothered.

As many disagreements as me and the Edgy have had over the past few days, he's right.

I'd rather pay less for teh DS without GB/GBC compatability than more with it.

You can buy a Gameboy Colour for 15 quid no, you hobos

No Fanboyism there. Just stating it is a good business move for the company.

That is an undeniable fact.

As is that.

That's true for the majority of the retailers with the bigger market share don't take in old Game Boy games. (Note: Game have largest share, followed by Asda - Gamestation are trailing behind somewhere)

...as they don't gain any profit from pre-owned.


I can't see what the problem is.

I still can't.

And where's the fanboyistic remarks?

There aren't any.
