Update: Bumping this to the front page since the original embedded video wasn’t working. It should appear now!
It’s almost weird to me seeing Robin Williams talking about video games this much. I’m used to watching him in his films… like Mrs. Doubtfire. That’s still an amazing movie, by the way!
This information comes from Renegade Kid’s Jools Watsham…
“We’re aiming for approximately $9.99. It? may vary anywhere from $7.99 to $14.99 on the final price.”
$9.99 should be a perfectly acceptable prize! To put things in perspective, Cave Story on DSiWare costs the same amount. Hopefully you 3DS owners out there will consider purchasing the title, as it’ll likely be one of the first stand-out eShop releases on the service.
I have a feeling we’ll be seeing a bunch of other neat easter eggs/game references as more people have chance to play the game. Not just for Skyward Sword, but possibly other titles as well. It’s been interesting to see what sort of changes and additions have made to Ocarina of Time 3D, including the small touches.

In other news, I’ve encountered an issue with our new gallery system. For now I’m using the clunky, old system for images. I’ll look into the problem and hopefully switch back to the new galleries soon.
You know, I’ve been thinking of picking up a new DS Lite just for my collection. Unfortunately, my original Lite broke thanks to a faulty hinge and it’s bothered me for some time. That’s the first Nintendo system’s that was destroyed and I didn’t even feel as though it was my fault!

It’s a shame that North America may never get a taste of this series. Some folks in Europe finally have a chance to play the first title, but even that was way overdue!
Since these concerns will also be performed throughout North America and Europe, specific sites for those territories should open soon. We’ll let you know when they’re live!
