totally unnecessary and they went so far with it

yeah, it's a big reason why I tend to consider ocarina a high water mark

stuff like that is why when people say oot is the best zelda game, i think it makes sense

the idea that was started in link's awakening with the ocarina songs there got realized fully in ocarina

yeah. I love many things that showed up in later zeldas, but for a complete package it's just overall so well done.

Not impossible

just highly unlikely

The biggest thing I loved about the ocarina is that you could play it like a real instrument outside of the preset songs. You could even change the pitch and add vibrato, which is just insane detail. It just set this huge benchmark that the other instruments haven't even tried to match.

I actually didn't know the full ocarina range until just a few years ago.

Once I did, I wrote out the Super Mario Bros theme to play in Ocarina. A friend of mine was writing for Nintendo Power at the time and asked me to transcribe to include in some anniversary issue, but ended up not using it.

so apparently Ebay is a pretty cool bro.

I was selling some accounts for League that I didn't want anymore. Had about 6 of them, tossed them up for $5 each. Some doucher bought 3 or 4, changed the info, then submitted a dispute.

the next day ebay emailed me letting me know they refunded him, but also didn't take the funds from my account, and that this won't reflect negatively on my account.

So I'm like... okay, I guess. At least I didn't lose out on like $20.

What kind of an asshole goes to that kind of trouble over $20?

Almost happy

Yeah I can't wait for the last season of Mad Men. Finally sat down and watched that show a few months ago and it really does live up to the insane hype that surrounds it.
