What are some of your favourite songs from the NES games?
This is one of my absolute NES favourites:
Sagila's Cavern/Den/cave || Caverns of Sagila
From Rygar
Which ones do you like? Share them here!:^o^:
No lie.
I thought it was funny so I thought I'd share it. :XD:
We know how convoluted the game could be.
I had Dragon Warrior as a kid. When I think of it I think of this music:
This might be a good place to ask, who is the woman?
She's a prominent character in the animation, so I assume she's shown up in a Zelda game at some point. But I'm long out of the Zelda loop.
No worries. That woman name is Ilia, she's Link childhood and close friend and the daughter of the Mayor in Ordon Village, where Link from Twilight Princess lives and starts his adventure.
I still have the "This is Kaynil, annoying you again!" .WAV file that you made back in ~2002.
Oh My gosh, I can't believe you still have that clip. Wow... I just realised that is over ten years old now. Great times.
Low-effort creative work collaborations could be fun. [...] the kinds of things that adults can fit into their busy lives.
I'm not very interested, personally, in the idea of a contest. Contests have winners and losers. [...] I'd be more interested in seeing a pdf with all the contributions, than I would in seeing a single entry raised above the others for no real reason.
I definitely vouch for the idea of having collaborations, though I don't see why to have one over the other. I think collaborations should be more ongoing and contests be less often but special. While I agree some people get demotivated by winners-loser, other people thrive with the idea of being the number one. The idea then would be to offer something nice that incentivizes people to give it a go.
Contests and collabs I think both should be something easy enough so people don't feel like discouraged just by thinking how complex it is to participate. Contests can be a good way to attract more visitors, although I am not particularly fond of "post-a-ton" contests or lottery-drawn.
I would add, to my previous comment, that if there's a "Winner," that means someone has to pick the winner.
Whoever picks the winner can't really pick themselves. If they do, it looks like / makes them feel like they're being unfair to the others.
Which means that whoever ends up being pegged as the Judge will be less motivated to contribute to the contest. Which is bad, because in a small community like this, we want as many people as possible to be motivated to participate in any group projects.
If the winner is selected by everybody's vote instead of staff or one individual it could still motivate everybody to enter. Although being so few at the time it could mean that many would withhold voting before giving it to another contendant which might make things difficult to choose the winner or winners in our current state.
Anyway, although I want to launch some sort of contest with a proper prize I can mail to the winner, I want the contest to be something simple, fun and zelda related. For example, designing an outfit for Link of the newest portable Zelda game announced.
I am still in shock even now. It really got me off guard. Iwata has been very discreet with his personal health and always talked to the media with positive news. After he had the operation I thought, I think many of us thought, he was in a slowly but steady path to recuperation. At first I really thought it was just one of those Facebook prank applications of fake news, but then I realised it was everywhere. By the time I wanted to share it here and other networks I realised other people had already done that, and I am glad because I probably wouldn't be able to express clearly the news.
Iwata was very different to Yamauchi as he didn't mind to be in the spotlight as a friendly, approachable individual being hand on in development of some of the titles. His mannerisms and catchphrases became quickly a big part of the face of Nintendo with the Directs. I still going to laugh at their muppets and the fight with Reggie as the start of a Direct to introduce the Mii fighters.
May he rest in peace.
meeting and speaking to him over coffee was the greatest thing I have ever experienced in my life.
@Pekachew , it is great you actually met him in person for a coffee. I hope one day you indulge us with the story on how that came to be. It sounds amazing.
This is pretty awesome. I like that you actually recorded yourself pronouncing them.
Now I want to do the same. :XD:
<-- copycat
My mexican accent hasn't changed that much so that'd make some of mine odd.
Gotta agree with you LS. Since the current structure is not set in stone, I'll definitely take your advice in account when we address the possible rearrangement with the pokemon areas and other possible extension plans.
Just ask me to store them for you while you restart big deal.
Yeah, but still time consuming and since they came out of eggs, I'd miss them not being my trainer's.
These are the only clothes I use, all on blonde/black pigtails like the first pic. Male customization is garbo.
I love that hairstyle and that first outfit. She's such a cutie.
Hello there, it is nice to have you on board. I hope you enjoy your time.
I might remember ZR, although more as a project than a place that I joined. I think it was down by the time I attempted (Yeah, I let months pass between the invitation and actual attempt to join). It was a neat idea. I hope in some way we can incorporate the quality that ZR was aiming for back in the day. Once again, welcome. 
It's been added now.
That third timeline seemed kind of rushed to me. They just threw all the old games there. I don't like that LoZ/AoL is the last indecline. AoL basically was a way to explaining the Princess zelda thing, even with SS big reveal, I think this games should had been a bit above to have Zelda descendants or else it is kind of pointless. I also am not very convinced OoX fits well between aLttP and LA. :XD:
I know the idea of connecting them has been strong with fans since I first joined the forums. It is now very convoluted. you find a certain name or symbol ina game and you don't know if you should take it as a hint of a link between that and another game or simply a nice cameo.
I don't care much for the NX rumours at this stage, so i guess I don't really care. Off the bat, it sounds more like the classic expectations turn into rumours that anything else.
Even if it is truth, I bet that it won't be by much. They did the same rumour about the Wii U.
With this said, I gotta agree with the sentiment that they need to develop new IPs, make things easier for third parties to develop and convert, as well as going back to focuss in how a game bring something new instead of how to make a controller that brings something different.... and drop the "Wii".
It seems like a cool fanfic, at least at beginning. It is interesting all the thought pour into it with the clothes, gems and what not.
It is interesting, not sure if I'd pick it up.
I used to argue that Sheik was male, precisely for the OoT incarnation in both the artwork and Melee. However I didn't think of it as gender transformation from Zelda.
It is just that as a character Sheik was supposed to represent a male Sheikah. So for me Sheik's gender isn't tied to Zelda's but on her intentions. Definitely Zelda is trying to pass off as a guy with that disguise.
Just like when girls cosplay as male anime character, said character is not feminine just because the cosplayer is of another gender.
Well, at least someone from NOA has given a definitive posture:
Bill Trinen, senior product marketing manager at Nintendo of America, took the opportunity to answer the question once and for all. His response? “The definitive answer is that Sheik is a woman — simply Zelda in a different outfit.”
I think a lot of the debate originates from having different goal posts. We are not dumb, we by now know it is Zelda in disguise, that is not the problem. The problem comes because from there we can take different approaches. One I see often is the magic versus plain disguise argument. Depending if you think Zelda uses magic or is simply very skilled people will argue how that affects Sheik's gender.
It is just a little perk. the newest pokemon games lets you customise a bit more your character choosing hair and eye colour on top of your sex. Later on you find some shops where you can spend your battling money buying clothes, hats and haircuts in addition to the usual pokemon survival things. To be honest I haven't progressed enough in the game, so I am stuck with an earlier change of luck I did with my character. I kinda want to start over but I don't want to lose my pokemon.
I like the second image the best.
I personally cannot stand Mario. it is the same thing everytime. . . . . .
Hahah.
Mario is alright in my books, but I understand what you mean.
.But If kaynil wants to make a theme logo for the forums, that has "The Legend of Hyrule" with the Pokecavern logo next to it, like the zelda one. We can make an identical theme for the pokemon side.
Hahaha I was typing a similar idea on the other thread, haha. Cool to see we're on the same channel.
I was thinking in 3 skins actually. They all are basically the same, just the header/logo changed. The default one could be a simple neutral one, either with a bit of everything or with devoid of direct references to zelda, pokemon, etc.
Then we enforce the pokemon logo one for the PKM related areas, the LoH for the Zelda areas and if you add other Franchises, we could do the same. Though this would lock us into just using this style.
I tried to recreate your idea by adding the stripes you mentioned from beginning.
I don't have the font you use for the motto. I have the psd file which I can pass so you or your friend can tweak it if you want.
