a disturbing trend in videogames...

This being an election year, I thought I'd bring up something I noticed while playing Twilight Princess: Link's all-consuming hatred of pottery! No urn is left unsmashed in this game, and I did some research... it's like this in every Zelda game since 1991! Also worth mentioning is Resident Evil 4's dependence on foreign typewriters for game saving... we should all be very concerned; thanks for your time, and remember to vote.a disturbing trend in videogames...

i live in canada. we praise the queen hahaha

[QUOTE=''awptimistic'']i live in canada. we praise the queen hahaha [/QUOTE]I wonder if local government matters in Canada since local government usually concerns itself with infrastructure and as far as I know there is only one road in Canada. :P
Am I missing something, because I don't see the connection between smashing pottery and the presidential election? Unless Link is Hillary and the pots full of rupees are our wallets.
[QUOTE=''awptimistic'']i live in canada. we praise the queen hahaha [/QUOTE]The queen sucks. I'm glad in Quebec we hate her. If she was in Quebec, we would throw some rocks to her.
maybe there is a connection between video games not having many female main characters and being sexist.... and many sexist, piggish male voters not liking hilary simply for the fact that she's a woman!hmmmm.... :P

Plenty of women hate her too.

Actually there are quite a few roads up here at leas 6 or maybe its 7 :P

(off-Topic) back on Topic that isn't really a trend because no other games do that if it was a trend all games would do that.
What is this?? are you really distrubed by the foreign typewriter in RE4, i didn't even notice them and who cares if link smashs a few pots but what has me most confused is the election crap and then you throw in the Canada topic I just don't know. Anyway I want McCain to win and Canada is cool i vacation there every year and has more than 1 road even if south park says it doesn't. Except one time i went to Canada on a fishing trip and didn't realize it was the queens b-day, everyone was outta control. One more question for canucks why do you wear your life jackets outta water, I ate diner wit a bunch of canucks and they had them on the whole night even like 6 hours after we left the water?

    Shortage still?

    I can't seem to find a Wii anywhere. I went to multiple Targets and Best Buys and they never tell me when they're getting a new shipment or anything. I haven't even seen a Wii in stock since summer... Any idea where/when/how I should get one and do you think I will be able to get one by the time brawl comes out?Shortage still?
    Same here.I'm going to call every store TWICE a day until they have some in stores.I'm hoping they'll get so fed up of me calling that they'll hold one for me.Shortage still?
    DO the stores hold them for you?
    [QUOTE=''KnilxD'']DO the stores hold them for you?[/QUOTE]Unfortunatly not, none of the stores where I live hold them for people.So I gotta call, then if there is some, I gotta rush there and hope they have some left.
    Yeah, they are still pretty hard to find...A local store where I live had a few this past weekend, but not anymore
    I just want one by March. I'm gonna call a bunch of targets. My sisters boyfriend works at target but he can't hold on for me so I guess i'll ask him when they're getting them in.
    just keep up with gonintendo.comjust like this last week on saturday they posted that on sundays ad for Circuit City it said they had a min per store on sunday morning... then its just up to you to camp out early enough to get one.
    Ya I was lucky, I was looking for a Wii for Christmas and I couldn't find one anywhere, but then one day my mom went to a local walmart, and they just hapend to have a some Wii's that morning in stock and I got the last one, you have to be there right when they stock it, or you will never get one unless you wait a thousand years.
    I got lucky getting my Wii. We found one at a Wal-Mart when I was on vacation and I was disappointed because I had to wait a week before I was able to play it:(.
    good thing i got mine on launch day XD but im amazed they are still flying off the shelves.
    I got my wii from my wife as a Christmas present in December 2006. Yes, I'm still surprised how hard it is to find one.
    [QUOTE=''gonzalezboy07'']I got my wii from my wife as a Christmas present in December 2006. Yes, I'm still surprised how hard it is to find one.[/QUOTE] Yep and because of that nintendo lost alot of sales.Its kind of sad because even though I really want one, if I can't find it soon, Ill just buy something else.
    Just call the stores every morning and pray..
    I got a Wii today at best buy :o There were like 5 in stock.
    They're still selling fast. I actually saw a shipment when I was in the store the other day, and at least 20 people stampeded over to the games section
    the thing that i hate the most is when some one buys the wii just to sell it on eBay or something like that. or even people that do that smash my wii thingy.
    i got mine in the summer when it was actually possible to see them in stores. It was sitting in a Boscovs Store right behind a pile of games. I said ''Is that a Wii?!?!'' and i asked, and it was!!! So i bought it, and i loved it like it was my first child...
    Best way to get one is find out when stores get their shipment in(Gamestop's around here get em in about 11:30 or so)... Call around that time every day, best way to get one:)
    I've been looking for one for awhile, no luck.
    hard to find one here in Europe too

    Super Smash Brothers Brawl Online

    is there online play for this game?Super Smash Brothers Brawl Online
    YupSuper Smash Brothers Brawl Online
    Yeah...I thought everybody would've known that by now.This will be locked though. Sorry :(
    'tis for true.
    lol at you sig picture

    Storage idea for wii. Pretty sick idea. ...

    My idea is to have a blank disk that you insert into the wii, and then you can play games that have too much storage. this disk would play the games that you have downloaded via the virtual console with disk memory space like dreamcast games. Everytime you would want to play a different game, that game would load onto the disk. It is a very cheap way to have storage. Sikkk idea but im not sure if it oculd work, having many disks would make more sense like having a burner, but having just one disk would be sikker.Thoughts**Storage idea for wii. Pretty sick idea. ...
    you want the wii to burn VC games on a blank DVD disk?Storage idea for wii. Pretty sick idea. ...
    Beleive me, Nintendo wouldn't do that.
    Same avatar...very confusing.
    Not a good ideaBut good for trying
    That is an interesting idea, but I don't think it beats being able to just play the VC games from an SD card. Much more elegant and the hardware is already in place to do it. Just need a firmware update.
    The Wii doesn't have burning capablities. It's disc drive is read only.Also, like I said in the other thread, DC games wouldn't work anyways. There isnt enough power for emulation.

    Burning the games onto a blank DVD? That sounds a little too easy to pirate. Easy piracy is what killed the Dreamcast!!!!!
    Good try. Bad idea.
    Except the Wii can only read discs, it wasn't designed to burn them.

The real reason it was discontinued was because Sega ran out of money to support it.

    A little similar to the Gameboy Player on the Gamecube.

    If I was Nintendo, then I would have a portable hardrive/external hardrive that you can attach via usb cable in the back of the wii. It will have much more space and a great way to expand the wiis capabilities.

    BOOM Blox the game

    why does no body like this game. i was on some fourm and i mentioned Blox and every one started flaming me and the gameit looks like a cool idea to me and could be really fun.Tell me why it looks bad to you guysBOOM Blox the game
    It's kinda an interesting idea, but it looks too simple to me. Also, I could see it getting kinda repetative if it doesn't have a lot of variety in puzzles. Personally I think it would probably be better as a Wiiware title.BOOM Blox the game
    I think I might get it if it was around $20-$30, but I don't think I'd be willing to pay full price for it.
    It has a lot of potential. But I want to know what are the different blocks properties.

    somebody knows something about tales of ...

    please if somebody knows about place post it
