I wish I had been around back in that day. Can't we set up the old forum system again? ;)

Yes.

Question for the strat. guide haters (i.e. L--- D---):  Are you also opposed to teamwork?  An example would be Boo's aforementioned, kill-three-bad-guys-in-the-right-order puzzle from Link's Awakening:  What if he asked a friend, and the friend told him the answer?  Or what if a friend was hunched over his shoulder at the time and barked out his solution--and it just happened to be right?  Do you differentiate such phenomena from looking something up in a strategy guide?

I, for one, feel terrible shame--though I concur with Lizard Dude.  I have a pretty good idea which part you're talking about... I was stuck for a while myself.  Though I don't remember exactly how I got out of it...

I guess guides are OK for, say, fighting games where you have to pull off 16-button combos that would be almost impossible to stumble upon otherwise.

Well, I know it's not the Water Temple in Zelda 64... It might be the Forest Temple because of that beautiful music--but I can't overlook that temple being the impetus for putting the game down for months.  It might be a dungeon from the original Zelda... but to be honest, I've only been through that game two or three times--not enough for each of the levels to have fleshed out their own identity.

If the castle in Link's Awakening counts, I'm going with that...

I have changed a Pokey to Yoshi but it missed, it's a fusion between Pokey and Yoshi and he's impossible to kill

This is actually the most awesome thing I've heard in a very long time.

Wait, they use 3 CDs for 80 minutes?

Well, I think it's safe to wager that this compilation wasn't designed with any medium in mind--'cause it's totally virtual.  At the same time, the 80-minute mark can't be a coincidence... I mean, it can be, but... That's the max a single CD can hold, right?

Thanks for the tip, Luigison.  That's a good point about looping:  Why waste the disk space?  At the same time, it's nice to just hit play and leave the album on auto-pilot.  Eh, I'm torn.

Thanks, Bird Person!  I want it regardless but was kind of hoping it'd be a more authentic coin.

Thanks, MEGAߥTE!  That more or less confirms my suspicions.

Oh, and the fan who made this took the liberty of looping the songs an extra time or two.  At just over 80 minutes, the whole set has a good flow to it... so I thought it'd be a nice addition to an mp3 player.  I'm pretty picky about tags and was hoping to find an official track listing for comparison.

May I provide a link?

The original article's gone now!  How do I get my coin?  And are we talking coin as in collect 100 and seriously get a life--or is it like a coin with Mario's face on it?

All tracks are music straight from the game--no remixes or live renditions.  Is this an actual release or some fan-made concoction?

What did Feel the Magic do with its final boss?  There was a "last battle" and a "final battle"... I forget which one was last.  Or final.  Anyway, the real last/final battle is the most important.  It's like the last word in a line of poetry.

I predict that Rosetta will be to Peach as Sheik was to Zelda in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. (Except we already know Rosetta is female.)

Bob-OMB Yes, indeed.  I stand by this prediction.

If not, I'll enjoy having another character thrown into the mix.  Just keep flooding the pool...
