Of course "unnatural" foods, like those you list, *tend* to be less healthy than natural foods.

Certainly cutting down on pop and fast food has some benefit.

However, as many have stated already, they're not all bad, all the time. They're not poison, they just tend to be consumed in excess.

I guess it's common to bring up "reverse racism"

However people need to realize the advantages they have being "white" and in the majority, as opposed to the minority.

While some situations may result in a white person feeling like they're being disadvantaged because of their race, they need to realize that this is something that minorities deal with much more often.

Is the lack of Majora's Mask content a sign that Nintendo is saving references/content from that game for a remake?

It's totally a stretch, but who knows?

I had to keep telling myself that it was just a Dynasty Warriors game.

Ultimately, I'm sure this game will simply provide a moderate level of disposable enjoyment but now it seems more clear than ever that there will be elements that I'll love -- there's some great stuff for Zelda fans in this package.

But yes, the preorder stuff sucks. What fan wouldn't want those alt-skins, it's mean of Nintendo to not simply include them in the original game.

When you look at a given election there are a lot of reasons people vote one side or the other. The results of a given American election may be determined by the state of the economy, current events, televised debates, party, judgments on the character of candidates, which party best represents ones view of the integrity of the country, etc. A generally liberal individual may vote for a conservative president because they're concerned about the economy, or don't trust the democratic candidate. Foreign policy may not be a priority for everyone.

Currently, people in the West view Hamas as dangerous terrorists but that doesn't make us qualified to say how a rational Palestinian should have voted however many years ago. (And, of course, not everyone in Palestine voted the same.) When making these sorts of judgments it's important to do so from the perspective of someone from that country (i.e. whose great grandfather grew up in that country, whose children are in their school system, who sees that country's flag and actually feels something, etc.)

I had fun playing it but by the end after beating it I felt no desire to revisit it. Really each NSMB has been less exciting than the last due to the fatiguing game play and audio/visual design.

The last exciting 2D Mario game was the original New Super Mario Bros game, and that was as a throwback.

Nintendo needs to think a bit before they release another entry in this series.

Wow. People don't get it.

Who is right / who is wrong ? What is this, a Disney movie? Nothing in life is ever that simple.

Also -- it's hypocritical to imply that citizens are culpable for the actions of those they elect. We've all been citizens of governments who have at times wronged others / committed crimes.

Aren't reps just fans like us who get paid to share their enthusiasm with others?

Rayman would be an interesting addition but in this case wouldn't it be far more likely that this guy mispoke?

Also the Miiverse post about Ubisoft providing a model for a Rayman trophy makes his inclusion seem less likely, rather than more.

Rayman is great but I'd rather see a Nintendo character -- there are still lots of greats who haven't, and inevitably won't, be included in this brawler.

While I favor Yoshi as an IP, were looking at a very good Kirby compared to a fairly poor Yoshi.

Apple should do something about it. They've certainly shown themselves to be good at getting people to spend relatively large amounts of money for "quality."

Have a premium apps section to the store with games above 5. Maintain strict quality control. Present the games as excellent content, rather than overpriced apps.
