Funny, though as with most Video Game Fivers, I've never played the source material. More! More! More!

On a tangent, if you've enjoyed the StarTropic fiver, play the game. One of the greatest NES RPGs in my opinion.

There's meat in the walls the same way that there's money inside of grass: the Minish put them there.

Too bad we don't have anyone to five Twilight Princess within a week of release. Won't be me, I don't have the money for a Gamecube, much less a Revolution.

Come on, a whip is a totally awesome weapon.

...Then again, my perception of that might have been somewhat tainted by Castlevania in the first place. Hm.

Well, it beats a yo-yo. Nice fiver. Warn me before you're going to pick up any more of my favorite video game series, though, I was staring at the update page for about five minutes with my mouth open.

And now you can play the game again on hard mode! There'll be more enemies and you can pretend you're getting the Triforce of Courage and everything!
Yay Triforce!

Great fiver, Zeke. You almost persuade me to (find and) play the game.

If you hate Trek puns, don't read the Groaners page at Nitpicker Central. Too late? Oh well...

That is sad, isn't it? Link never actually gets the Triforce, right? It'd be nice if there was a game where he could actually get it.

He totally gets part of the trifoce. But why would he get all of it? Only Ganon(dorf) is that greedy.
