@165. "[...]the Zelda formula became utterly trite and boring. I mean, it's simple: Find item A, use item A to "unlock" dungeon A, explore dungeon A, find item B, defeat boss A using item B, use item B to "unlock" dungeon B, etc. etc. [...]"

Man, reading the posts in here is a just a waste of time..
to the OP: a) Way to go! This is a great way to start ANOTHER debate on graphics vs. gameplay (/sarcasm)
b) Nintendo Fanboys: whatever they say here, I'm 100% sure you guys don't care anyway. I'm pretty sure by next week you will play the gem called *The Legend of Zelda*

Contrary to popular belief, there are other necessities people buy OTHER than an HDTV.
Hell, I work full time and study part time (also paying rent and utilities). I don't have the money to buy a $600 PS3 or a $400 Xbox 360 and an HDTV to get the FULL experience (from what I've heard).
Obviously I'm getting a Wii and that's it. My 4yr old TV still works perfectly and does the job.
Lik-Sang is a legitimate (reseller) company who did something illegal based in European laws. Why European laws while Lik-Sang is Hong Kong based? It because resellers have to obide the rules in whatever country they will to sell products/merchandise to.
Did what Sony do to Lik-Sang overkill? Perhaps. Did what Lik-Sang do (by selling PS3's to Euro gamers illegal).. The judge thought so. Does Lik-Sang have grounds to appeal? Absolutely. Did Sony REALLY have to sue Lik-Sang? NO; hell PS3's have been sold yet.. unless I missed it and it's out already..
- That being said, it sucks like hell to lose Lik-Sang.
