The amount of nostalgia here made me tear up a bit. There is a mistake in naming Fox as James McCloud. Still awesome video.

Life and Death According to Zelda :)

stopped listening at “the gameplay…Other M’s problems” Nopenopenope.

Yeah no kidding. He is insufferable. I stated I did not like Other M. I would like to clarify that I mostly did not like it. I still think it was a decent game with good parts and bad parts. But I do not dislike it for petty reasons like “misuse of my favorite voice actress that is the best” or whatever he was going on about.

What fanboy this guy is. I don’t like Metroid: Other M personally, but dude needs to get over himself. He is all butt hurt over a disappointing game. His reaction is almost as if Yoshio Sakamoto kill his family. Some of his criticisms are valid, but it’s almost a 20 minute video of the guy crying over how much is beloved series is destroyed. Most of his criticism have not much to do with the actual gameplay, but about things only silly fanboys care about; like story elements from the manga.

No one but you cares about that crap. LOL!

Found some of my old games in a box. Good times. Now got to find my N64 and Snes. Thinking about playing some Final Fantasy 3 (yeah I know it’s FF6) at least.

My first impressions of Skyward Sword after two hours. More later when I play further.

It comes with the silly Wii-mote condom attached.

My body is ready!

Cowboys vs Redskins! LOL naw! The next installment of Zelda comes out tomorrow. I will be playing mostly all day, and doing some videos for my youtube channel. Most likely first impressions of each new area, maybe Heart piece and Goddess Cube locations. Originally was going to do a full playthrough, but that crap takes too long and everybody on youtube does playthroughs anyway.

Not to mention playthroughs do not pay that much on youtube unless you spam a crap load of videos. Not to mention the copyright issues if you are not doing constant commentary; and there will be lulls.  But really, who actually sits there and watches someone play through an entire game that he or she should be playing themselves?

What pays on youtube is to make content out of the game footage that no one else is doing, which is tricky.

I’ve done only two videos so far for Skyrim and made some money because it got waaaaaaaay more views than my all playthrough videos combined. So yeah 100+ videos at 15 minutes each which accumulate to an entire game playthrough is not worth it. Especially when compared to a single 2 minute video that can achieve far greater success.

Speaking of Skyrim and youtube, I should be working on my next video. I have to finish my outline, then film and commentate more gameplay. But, I have Zelda on the brain to the point I have not had the urge to play some more Skyrim.

I guess I’ll try to chip away at that.

For PC or Mac.

Want!

Dude! That legitimately made me dizzy.

Skyward Sword concept art. This is the mysterious Skeikah from the trailers. Her name has yet to be revealed. Some people speculate it is a younger Impa from Ocarina of Time, or even Skyward Sword’s version of Impa. I put my vote down for new character.

New concept are was released for Skyward Sword. This one was interesting to me. It’s a late game enemy or boss. His sword is like an “Evil” Master Sword.

Look at the upside down Triforce. It reminds me of the upside down cross ( Cross of St. Peter) which is usually associated with Satanism or the Anti-Christ. I think that is what Nintendo was going for here. Very cool.
