I remember Nintendo in 1999, in my 5th grade class. They made the consoles that every kid wanted to get for Christmas, and the games that every kid wanted to play. Somehow, they lost their innovative spark a few years ago and have resigned to cranking out rehashes and trying to relive its long-gone glory days. What happened to them?

Must be you, then. I haven't used it since 2004.
what a quick confession of a joke topic
You're the joke. They sold you out to Wall Street and sold out the personal info you provided to advertisers, and you won't be seeing a penny of those proceeds.

Must be you, then. I haven't used it since 2004.

Before the IPO it was 3 months of non-stop hype, which reached a frenzy in the last 2 weeks as the likes of the Wall Street Journal and CNBC more or less dedicated their entire front pages to covering the event (or in hindsight, the non-event.)

There are more gossip articles (57,000 according to Google News) written about Zuckerberg's extremely unsurprising wedding (they've been together for what, 10 years? And this is a matter of his personal life, not a corporate development) than NATO or Greece or the Italian earthquake, or other current events that actually matter.

And now, post-IPO, Wash Post is still trying to hype Faecesbook stock, to the ridicule of its readership:

I understand that Donald Graham works for Faecesbook, but this media frenzy is hardly restricted to WashPost or direct beneficiaries of Faecesbook's IPO. Just what the hell is so special about this slily, faddish, productivity-draining website that it's deserving of an entire planet's worth of s***ty journalism being printed about it?

Mac OS 7 introduced system extensions, file sharing, drag-and-drop, 32-bit QuickDraw, and more. Truly a revolutionary milestone for computing.

I would say "C." That's how playing any version of OOT feels like next to modern Zelda games like TWW and TP (and I'm fairly confident SS will take it to even more polished levels)
