Hey guys. Today was Zelda's 25th Anniversary, and in celebration of this momentous occasion I thought I'd share this recreation of the Zelda: Wind Waker intro scroll. I recreated it back in 2005 using pencil, ink, and water colors and it took approximately 2 weeks to finish.
@p_p_o_d: What? That's not what I'm saying at all. I don't mean that Microsoft should start buying up Nintendo games. I'm talking about the Giant Bomb crew shifting to the Wii's Virtual Console and reviewing retro releases on that console instead. At least then we'd still have some retro nostalgia to look forward to, since Game Room is now pointless.
Uh, it's widely considered one of the best shoot-em-ups ever made, AND it's extremely rare. So yeah, it's pretty fucking special. Don't talk smack if you don't know wtf you're talking about.
You know what might be cool? Transition from Game Room to the Wii's Virtual Console. Start taking things on from the NES and Sega Master System and move forward into that era. Because really, Game Room is getting pretty fucking sad. Correction: Game Room has been sad for like a month or so now.
I really enjoy watching you guys take a walk down memory lane with these games, but I think it's time to revisit the NES era.
Earth Seeker, for those who may not be aware, is a new adventure RPG from Crafts & Meisters (led by one of the creators of Street Fighter). It looks pretty cool, hopefully it'll turn out better than Fragile Dreams and get localized. Anyway, the official Japanese website has updated with some new artwork and (Japanese) details. The battle system is called the "Time Stop Battle" system, which sounds a bit like a fancy name for traditional turn-based JRPG goodness.
