Nintendo Power Issue 268

 

The other day I bought a Nintendo Power magazine from Wal-Mart just because I could. The cover, as you can see, has the "modern" Sonic (the alternative cover has "classic" Sonic on it). On the inside, there's a 11-page feature all about Sonic the Hedgehog, along with a feature about the GameBoy Advance, LoZ: Link's Awakening. Plus, (this is my favorite part) the
4-page review on Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D. It was FUN to read. Also, reading the Pulse (e-mails, etc.) section was fun. My favorite letter was:

"I know this is irrelevant because The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker hasn't been mentioned in a while, but I will belatedly defend the game's sailing sections.  I thoroughly enjoyed traveling from island to island by boat.  The experience heightened the sense of exploration, and braving my way through dark thunderstorms was awesome." -Littleredwolf

 In my opinion, sailing was fun, for like the first half of the game. Then, right around the part where you get the Master Sword, it became annoying.  Although the Ballad of Gales made it a bit easier, sailing around to find to those stupid Triforce shards was just plain boring.  Maybe that's why I didn't finish the game for like, 2 months...
