Yes, Xbox isnt doing any better though is it?
--
Its VERY hard for any exclusive title to be high up the charts these days.
Compare individual sales figures for each system, and youll find Nintendo exclusives much higher

Nintendo holds the top 3 saleing games in the US for the last Quater, for instance.
(Zelda, Pokemon, Pokemom, :p)

*bump*

Courier just dropped off my Z:WW (with bonus disc!), so I thought I'd extend my lunch break a little and have a look.

Oooooh, pretty

Had a squiz at Ocarina of Time, too. How does the Cube version compare to the original?

And, given that I'm popping my Zelda cherry, which one should I tackle first?

The consensus is for Zelda virgins to play Ocarina first.

Well I have Z:WW now. I started with it and worked my way (with a bit of playing here and a bit there) to the Dragons Roost Boss. Ugly.

This is a fun, fun game. Good controls for the most part. I just wish you could fast forward through conversations. i can read faster than they can speak

Cant you change the speed?

You can on the game-boy version :p

Certain conversations can be FF with A. Other ones type themselves out at a very s l o w pace. Don't think you can change the text speed overall though.

Some of the text is scripted for certain speeds for dramatic reasons. Now the GBA version of LttP had an option to change the speed, wonder why they couldn't put that into more RPGs...

I only got Zelda on Saturday but I think I found that the START button skipped the dialogues. may be wrong though

Be careful with that; you may lose vital clues to stuff.

I have the impression there is a lot more dialogues in the beginning of the game. Actually in the 2 residential islands and the beginning of Dragons Roost (? The Post Ofice one), there is a lot of talking, but not in the dungeons.

I'm currently going around the map finding all the islands, fairies, treasures, etc. and getting the fishes to complete my map.

Bloody boat keeps asking me "What are you doing?!"

He wants me to do the next bit (that tall tower thingy) but I don't wanna.

I like when the boat yawns.

Sometimes when you go back to it after a dungeon or an island is yawning.

Yeah, I've seen that too, and Link yawns and stretches when left for a few minutes.

You have to stand Link around for ages on the early photo quest where he has to snap the young woman and ginger bloke gazing at each other.
Watching Link get bored, fidget, look around and seeing the reaction to him from the 4 boys as they circle the area is just superb.
