ERr, well I dont think anyone knows that.

The next game will play completley differently from the previous games, being very fighting oriented.
Apparently you use both sticks in battles, and learn all sorts of new manouvres as the game progresses.
Could be very interesting indeed.
Roll on Spaceworld.
After a few hours I managed to get to sleep.
My alarm buzzed frantically at 7:45... why it was set to that time, I don't know... I guess it's a round number in clock terms... I got up quickly and brushed my teeth... breakfast didn't matter... as long as I was half respectable I didn't care... I stood and stood and waited and waited... then round the corner of the drive came a red and navy blur. It was indeed the postman, who until he saw me running towards him, sported quite a big smile...
I ran up to him and snatched the post out of his hand... he was quite put back but there was no time to apologise...
I threw the rest of the post on the bottom step of our stars and ran into the lounge. I couldn't believe it... in my hand was the best looking parcel I had ever seen. I got out my penknife and after fumbling and dropping it on the floor a record 4 times I took a breather... I slowly sliced the brown tape that sealed the cardboard box in half and the lid was loose.
I don't know if my wedding day of seeing my child for the first time will ever compare to see what was in the box. It just shone out... The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time... to be honest, I didn't know what to expect... my single figure years had been made up of School, Church and 2D Zelda and Mario games... 3D Mario had been and I still loved him, but nothing would prepare me for this.
I put the cartridge into the console and turned it on... the logos went by soooooo slow, I felt like I was breathing at 1,000,000 miles and hour...
I started a game... my name had to be Link... and then, I saw them... THE graphics... they shot out of the screen and into by eyes... I was thrown back off the sofa and into the kitchen leaving a Game-shaped hole in the dividing wall... I flew into the spice rack where I was covered, not so surprisingly in spices... my mum thought she saw a ghost... the frozen peas went everywhere... my dad came in and slipped on the peas and landed a not-so-well-executed People's Elbow on my leg...
I was carted off to hospital where, in the middle of ward 6, smelling of sweat, Rosemary and Sage and Onion, I could only imagine how great Zelda 64 really was... If the graphics were that good, then the gameplay must be fantastic...
...and it was!

Zelda 128 looks amazing, and if graphics could kill there wouldn’t be a gamer alive today...
...but it wasn’t graphics that made Zelda...
