So Nintendo has finally let open the flood gates that is the Nintendo Switch, but what did we actually learn and what am I going to do with the blog until then. Well I've got 9 weeks to go so expect so much content with thoughts idea's and whole lot of Zelda stuff until March 3 and I Switch over (Damnit the pun are just too easy).

2017 is now here and gaming stands on interesting peak where the road can continue to up but it can also fall quickly as well. 2016 was fill with a lot of downs for gaming and the Big 3 Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft are at a point where they can shape the future. Now as a gamer I want to throw my 2 cents into the ring and express my concern and thoughts for what they can do improve.  Now let us get to it.

So I've been playing Pokémon Sun and Moon (mostly Sun) a lot since it launched and well that got me thinking what is next for the Pokémon Games and could the future be on the Nintendo Switch

Hyrule Warriors is here and to celebrate the final character in my favorite character countdown is Link ah but which Link. Number 1:  Hero of Time. Now this link wasn't always my favorite Link, but after his third appearance. That’s right he has been in three games he stared in two and returned to teach the hero in the third. But we will address those games as they come but let us start with the first game OOT. This is where we are introduced to this Link as a young boy who lives in the forest with a childlike race called Kokiri . One day he awoke to find that he now like the rest of the Korkri had a fairy partner named Navi. He was then tasked by the Great Deku Tree to save the kingdom of Hyrule.  After gathering the three stones he enters the temple of time and draws the Master Sword. He was then sealed inside the temple for 10 years. After he awoke he was now an adult however Hyrule had fallen. This link would then journey to find the sages and ...

So now on to my favorite Zelda, and I know what your thinking aren’t they all the same. The Answer is No they are not all the same.  Epically my two favorites Zeldas So on with the count down. Number 2:  The Not Zeldas Sheik and Tetra.     Now I Know what you thinking you can’t have two favorites then this is a top six. To you I reply, ‘I do what I want!” but I will give you more detail on why these two earn my admiration. Ok so Sheik is from OOT and appears to help Link in the second half of the game. It’s only revealed at the end that Sheik was Zelda is disguise.  You spend the whole game wondering who this person could be. They claimed to be Sheikah however they look nothing like the one person who is established as the last of the Sheikah Impa. They have blond hair and fair skin. Ok if your wonder why I’m avoiding gender pronouns it is never made clear how the Sheik transformation works. If you read the manga adaptation Sheik is a dud...

Ok now on to day three of our countdown to Hyrule Warrior.  Now for day three I thought I do a villain but the only one I like that even worth talking about is the villain from my favorite Zelda game Majora's Mask (MM) the Skull Kid.   Number 3: Skull Kid Skull is not my favorite villain honestly I don’t have a favorite villain. He is my favorite all out mystery. The reason he is a mystery is a Skull Kid has been in three games. Those game are OOT, MM, and TP (see previous blogs).  The Skull Kid first appeared In OOT there where one who you would give the skull mask to you and two others who just want to play music.  Now here is where theory begins. Now Skull Kid serves as the antagonist for MM. In reality he was being used by the mask.  However it is believed that this skull kid and the one you give the skull mask to are one in the same. The theory is that this skull kid was originally from Termina and was banished to Hyrule. Where he m...

Now continuing with yesterday’s blog we are counting down to Hyrule Warrior with my top 5 favorite Legend of Zelda charters and todays is Number 4: Minda Minda appeared in Twilight Princess and is one of my favorite characters for two reasons. The first being she was such a mystery. Here was this little imp like creature who was more at home in the twilight than in light. The Second reason was she was constantly bad mouthing Link.  No matter what Link did she was out right mean about it. My favorite moment of this was when Link returned to Human form she outright tells you she prefers the wolf form. Now Minda’s Role was one we've seen before. Mina served the role of adviser Like Navi and the King of Red Lions before her. The major difference was she was condescending about the role like it was beneath her that and she was nowhere near as annoying as Navi.  Now as the game went one she would warm up to Link and be a little nicer. [Spoiler Warning] The...

So this Friday a game I have been looking forward to all year. No Not Smash Bros it’s Hyrule Warrior.  So to count down the days until the its release with my top 5 favorite Legend of Zelda Characters. Ok before I get into number 5 I will say that 2 and 1 will be a Zelda and a Link, however I won't tell you which ones. So  On with My Top 5 Number 5 : Impa Impa 1 st appeared in the manual for Legend of Zelda (LOZ) Her 1 st in game appearance was in Ocarina of Time (OOT). This was the 1 st time she was a young adult woman. In all previous games she was an elderly Nursemaid or Handmaiden of Princess Zelda. The OOT version was more of a Body Guard it was also the 1 st time the Sheikah were introduced as well. In her next introduction in the Games she was back to being a caretaker and not a body guard how every her appearance was drastically changed in the Oracle Games   She would not again return in game until Skyward Sword (SS) where she would t...

So as a child I fell in love with the long complex stories that where RPGs. It started with a SNES title at the time know as Final Fantasy II, in fact it was really IV I didn't learn that until years later though. This one epic game led me down a rabbit hole that included games like Chrono Trigger and Earthbound. Now as the N64 and PS1 where coming into there own with full 3D graphics there was one last RPG to come out on the SNES starring everyone's favorite plumber. This game was called Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. This was an awesome game that mixed the storytelling of SquareSoft (now Square Enix) and the magic of Nintendo. This game was amazing and I still love it to this day however it underperformed.  It came out the same year as its sister game Mario 64 and Nintendo was pushing the new console to sell.  The game though a critical success it failed commercially, and the long time partnership held by Square and Nintendo was at an end. Now even though the...

Ok so I've been playing with this guy a lot lately And he is awesome. Now with Luigi (my favorite character) getting announced and coming out later the year I thought about which Mario characters I'd like to see done in this figure line.  The list Yoshi Princess Peach Bowser Toad Wario Waluigi Donkey Kong Tanooki suit Mario  Kitsune suit Luigi Super Mario (fire flower) Super Luigi (fire flower) Princess Daisy Princess Luna Professor E. Gadd  New super Mario bros. Toad two pack Ok now everything from here on out would be super unlikely however would rule if it happened A Mario kart (this is not a stretch as they've done bikes for there rider figures) Weapon packs ( with hamm ers, shells, peach's frying pan, and  Poltergust) Mallow Geno Smithy Now these last three are unlikely as the characters are owned by Square not Nintendo. This is my uber wish list for the S.H. Figuarts Super Mario figures

So I love my collecting every new toy is a new adventure some better than others some worse.  Recently I have been having a rapidly growing spree with one particular brand of figure makers.  This one is with Tamashii Nations has gotten a little out of hand now Bluefin has made it much easier by having a domestic launch of many of their figures new and old however  their NY Toy Fair display and news was rather disappointing. Now with the last few months I have been looking over my preorders  and it is riddled with Tamashii Nations figures mostly S.H. Figarts line and with that mostly Power Rangers/Sentai. So I made a grownup decision what on the list right now will be the last of it I'm finishing off my power Rangers toys and the Kamen Rider stuff.  Now I'm jumping on their Naruto line because if it like the DBZ line it will take forever and become insanely hard to get quickly. I'm also keeping my eye on the Mario line as well and hopeful for more Nintendo Figur...

Since it's full debut at E3 2012 Nintendo's new Console the Wii U has had some mixed results. Now sit and I'll tell you why the Nintendo Wii U is going to be a must have for gamers. Now to do this we need to talk about a few things mainly The Games, The Gamepad, and The full HD support. I'm going to start by talking about the HD support. The HD The Wii U will support full 1080p HD which was probably the biggest draw back for the Wii. I don't remember how many times I've read in a Wii game review "The graphics are good for a Wii game". I hated that line but you had to do it because while Wii games had the story and the game play to match up with the other consoles the graphics where only just better than the Gamecube. HD was the only logical movie to make with the next console. The Games Here is where I may geek out a bit. mostly because of how they are using the the games. To see a list of games that are coming out ...
