Random aside, they're announcing a bunch of stuff lately as well as posting renders for upcoming games. [t]http://oi59.tinypic.com/3501f0k.jpg[/t] Seems they're going back to the robo-legs/feet in 0 :v:

[QUOTE=Kray R.;48384101]Watch Nintendo of America skip out on this limited edition and give literally no reason for doing so.[/QUOTE] They already confirmed this morning that we're getting it. Was waiting to see if there was other news before making a list of stuff.

Also damn they're furry, it looks a little unnatural, especially on Falco.
[QUOTE=TectoImprov;48386027]You could probably argue that they're boots and this is coming from someone that likes the feet theory. Also damn they're furry, it looks a little unnatural, especially on Falco.[/QUOTE] It's not really a theory; they've been portrayed in official images with clearly robotic legs. It's just that sometimes it's canon and sometimes it's not, depending on the game.

They all look like boots for me except for Peppy, they look way too small on him imo

Actually kinda like these designs.
I really love the designs. I wonder if we'll get a look at Star Wolf's designs soon. Also I really want to see online dogfights comeback. It wouldn't be a deal-breaker without multiplayer, but it'd certainly be a nice addition.

Have you ever seen a real fox? [t]http://i.imgur.com/IE3VjdK.jpg[/t] They're quite scruffy
[QUOTE=IliekBoxes;48387535]Fox is too ruffled[/QUOTE] Falco bugs me the most. He looks like a toy, not a furry animal.
I think they should have done something more like DK's fur in Smash 4. [t]http://www.smashbros.com/images/character/donkey_kong/main.png[/t] Very detailed but also simplistic as well, I think their current design is too detailed. [editline]6th August 2015[/editline] I really don't know why they gave Falco so much detail, he should be almost as smooth as Slippy.
The problem I have with Falco is that his looks too much like fur and not feathers.
I like the designs but Fox's face looks messy and dirty, like he hasn't washed in weeks. Peppy's fur doesn't look as bad.

To be fair though he ALMOST gets to use it in Wind Waker. It doesn't disassemble at his mere possession of it, and in fact it was him who completed it by stripping Link and Tetra of their respective pieces. He was disturbingly close to getting his way that time. It was only Daphnes' quick thinking that stopped him.

Seriously where the hell did he even come from and how did nobody notice him. Also will put together a list of stuff soon on all the stuff announced over the last few days- just waiting for some apparent xenoblade announcement NoA hinted at. (Also have the new thread typed up I hope you guys love it whenever I get to use it xoxoxo)
To be fair that Ganondorf was still evil, but probably the most benevolent of the series in comparison to the rest of his incarnations/story variants. He just wanted Hyrule restored, even if to rule over it himself.

Threatened the Rito people and their progeny's very way of life and repeatedly harassed their guardian. Almost destroyed the Deku tree and Deku Island. Nearly killed Jabun, as well as bringing about a storm that would not have ended otherwise. Obligatory Zelda kidnapping. Tried to destroy the world of the Great Sea. The definition of benign has gotten more lenient these days I suppose.

The Triforce seems to follow the Dragon Balls rules. They start scattered (either inside someone or physical pieces like WW or Zelda 1), must be reunited, grants powerful wishes and vanishes until convenient to come back. Sometimes never even appears or mentioned
Eh, not finding anything on this supposed announcement so just gonna jot down what's been going on for those out of the loop [b]General[/b] Mario Maker footage out the wazoo. Micheal Ancel, guy behind Rayman is making a handful of levels that will be in the base game. Xenoblade X Limited Edition announced for the two regions who still don't have it. Honestly doesn't sound terribly special but for collectors go nuts! Splatoon's big Friendship update made a splash! 2 new weapon types, redone maps, new music, ton of new gear and balancing changes. There's a lot to look forward to and the games now "complete" (though it's still getting a ton of updates in the future! BUY THIS GAME!) Star Fox had some new renders showing the team released. You can see them on this thread, nothing too special. 3DS but Zelda: Triforce Heroes is slated for October 23rd [b]Europe Only[/b] Xenoblade released on the Wii U VC and if you get it you'll save £9.00 on the Digital version of X. If you plan on taking advantage of this deal get a external hard-drive. The games huge. Xenoblade X will be getting a Console bundle as well that comes with the game's Legendary Edition. Fatal Frame: Maiden of the Black Water is dated for October 30th. No word on NA release though it's probably around the same time. Mewtwo's Smash Amiibo shown and dated for the 25th next month! Looks super good if you're into them! [b]US Only[/b] Mostly amiibo related news- Duck Hunt, G+W, and R.O.B Amiibo will all be bundled together and are seemingly exclusive to gamestop preorders will be this saturday so if you're interested better get in line. September 11th alongside the release of Mario Maker, Zero Suit Samus, Ganondorf, Olimar, Bowser Jr, Doc Mario and the Classic Mario Amiibo will be released. No words on preorders yet. Leaked image implies the mii fighters will also be a 3 pack deal though nothing else is known about them yet.

That's definitely the most sympathetic portrayal of Ganondorf as a character. His motivation was realistic, and he seemed to genuinely care for his people and felt injustice at how they lived compared to the rest of Hyrule. Unfortunately right after that, they went straight back to "I want to take over the world because I'm evil" in Twilight Princess.
Since Wind Waker takes place after the future version of Hyrule in OoT (you know, the version where he tried to kill basically everyone and tormented everyone he didn't manage to kill), I find it a bit hard to sympathise with him. If that portrayal had been in Twilight Princess, it would have made more sense since he was struck down before he could go off genociding several spieces. Even though he was still and asshat in the child parts of OoT.
Isn't Twilight Princess the last main series game Ganondorf has been in? It'd actually be nice seeing Ganondorf return in Zelda U, but only considering the fact we haven't seen him in a while.
I say asshat, he did still put a parasite in the Grat Deku Tree while also cursing him, killing him, as well as trying to starve the entire Goron race and forcing the worshipped deity of the Zora people to swollow their princess. Ganon really is a douche. [editline]7th August 2015[/editline] muh merge
