I have a friend that is a huge smash fan and reads a bunch of boards for those games and he says that people as recently as the latest smash didn't believe Shiek was a girl.

My fiancee used to be friends with a guy who as recently as like 4 years ago refused to believe that Sheik was Zelda at all

It's funny because even within OoT when Shiek is at her least feminine looking it's still pretty obvious she's Zelda and her recent designs just make it all the more obvious

His argument was basically "When you go see zelda in ocarina of time as a child, sheik is there too, so sheik can't be zelda"

When he was told that was impa he was all "no that was sheik"

I started checking out of SS pretty early just when I realized they had made it so Zelda was also now the childhood friend that totally digs you. The game being sort of bad probably had way more with me not beating it though.

They did that in Minish Cap already.

What's up with that Kirby 3D Rumble game mode? Is it like some sort of co-op side-scrolling Kirby brawler with character classes?

my friend with a japanese 3ds says that it's just a short side mode with set kirby classes. it is co-op but from the looks of it you're just fighting bosses and minibosses together.

160 CAD is about 120 USD, which plus the price of the game would be the price of the collector's edition everywhere else. So even if that offer doesn't come with the game and you have to pre-order it separate, you are still paying the same price for it. The reason for this is because the EBGames website has separate listings for video games and toys/figures and so they put them up separately because the collector's edition comes with a statue.

edit: Sorry to rain on peoples' 'ha ha look at the game that is going to be bad' parade. Mirror's Edge 2 is going to be good. namaste

It's weird to me that publishers can't seem to grasp the really obvious concept that the majority of people don't want a big gaming statue and of those people, they want a character they actually know and like rather than a character from a game they haven't played yet.

It doesn't help that even when it's an established IP, most game characters are so generic that no one would want a statue of them either, I mean, I love the Infamous games but :lol: if you think I want a statue of generic, bald, white dude. Even Souls though people would get excited by a generic suit of armor.
