Yup – the classic phrase from the original Zelda shows up in Skyward Sword. That’s really all you need to know about the video above! The footage is from a point later on in the game, so you may want to avoid watching it if you consider this kind of content to be spoilerish…

A couple weeks ago we held a poll on Facebook asking all of you to vote on which Zelda songs you think are the best the series has to offer. In honor of Skyward Sword’s release tomorrow/Sunday/Friday/whatever, here are the results!

Note to self: Probably no more green screen usage. It just messes with the footage a lot and becomes terribly hard to edit. That, coupled with a few other issues means we’re far from perfect, but I’d say it’s a significant step up from last week! We hope you feel the same.

Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime sat with with “Games Blog” to discuss 3DS DLC, competition from the mobile space, what Wii U needs to succeed, and more. He even discusses what he’s playing on other consoles. It’s kind of strange reading about how Reggie is going through the likes of Battlefield 3 and Gears of War…

All of his responses can be found after the break.

GameStop won’t be the only retailer selling the Zelda 3DS bundle in North America. An upcoming Best Buy flier shows that they’ll be offering the package as well. Nintendo still hasn’t announced the bundle officially, though I imagine they will soon.

The Official Nintendo Magazine provided a review of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 – Defiance a couple of weeks ago, with Kotaku following up with their own article today. To say the least, neither publication thought too highly of the title.

ONM gave the game a 70% while Kotaku’s verdict simply indicated that consumers shouldn’t purchase the game.

Both reviews contained blurbs indicating that Defiance should have been brought to the 3DS instead. ONM even said that “It’s just a shame n-Space wasn’t ready to make the step up to the 3DS yet because the added power could have made this one truly special.”

Responding to these reviews, n-Space posted on Facebook:

“The official Nintendo Magazine of UK gives CoD:MW3:D a 70%. Apparently we get marked down for ‘not being ready to take the step up to 3DS yet.’ I’m always amazed by how poorly game journalists understand the industry they work in. …Oh, and Kotaku can suck it.”

The thing is, n-Space wasn’t involved in the decision to make Modern Warfare 3 for DS. A few months back, the studio said, “You guys all need to understand that we make the games we are hired to make. It is not our call to decide which platforms to support.”

Of course, not all of the criticisms focused on the lack of a 3DS release. Both sites complained about Defiance’s controls, for example.

Ultimately, it’s true that n-Space wasn’t responsible for the platform decision for Modern Warfare 3: Defiance, though the manner in which they responded to these reviews probably won’t do the company any good.
