One can argue who has the most legitimate claim to the land but there's been such a long history of "back and forth" fighting that neither is clearly in the right.

Bumping with a mixture of good/bad news: Season 3 may now be watched legally online. However the fact it is no longer airing on Nick is unfortunate. Luckily for fans Season 4 (which is intended to be the final season) is already far along in production.

I have a 40 inch TV and can tell it's 1080p. I believe I could also tell if it were 4k.

It's Dynasty Warriors Zelda, and was never going to be for everyone ... and it's certainly never been substantial, more of a casual beat-em-up. I'm not sure to what extent I'll like it but the mixture of Skyward Sword, Ocarina of Time, and Twilight Princess enemies and locations is pretty appealing.

I'm optimistic that it will be included. "Considered" is certainly not the word people want to hear for what could be a make-or-break feature. But being that his reasoning is that he's concerned not enough content would be shared, it's possible that he's simply not allowed to confirm it yet.

ANYWAYS -- the article also confirms a form of Mario Paint style music editing. Custom music is evidence of good creative leeway,

To be sure there are a lot of, often unintentionally, racist people in this country but this just an American thing?

Certainly what is considered "white" and "black" is subjective ... in the early 1900s US immigrant groups now considered "white" were though of as black. Similarly who is mostly African may have genes for white skin, while someone who is mostly German may have genes for black.

I would think any culture is going to have in groups and out groups determined largely be physical appearance. It's all really silly and often harmful in the racism that results, but perhaps human nature, nonetheless.

I don't see this as "extremely racist". My problem is that in America (and yes, I mean only in America, because this shit doesn't happen in europe or the rest of the american continent) being white means "having european ancestors, unless they are spaniards", not "having white skin" which is how it should be. For some reasons americans think that if you were born in a latin american country and have white skin, you're still not white for being born in a latin american country.

In the rest of the world, your ethnicity will be defined by your skin color. My passport establishes my description as "white" while my cousin's (who has a more latin look) says "medium-dark skinned". It doesn't describe us both as "latinos" because that is kind of assuming that every single person from a certain ethnicity will have the exact same traits as the others.

I guess I'm not convinced that this is unique to America, but we may have more vague notions of ethnicity here since there are so many groups represented, "melting pot" and whatnot.

Still, I won't speak for other countries. In America black and white is about more than skin color. It has to do with who the culture identifies as part of the dominant "white" group, and who is considered part of the "black" minorities. I read this article the other day. I'll share it, in case you're interested. http://inamerica.blogs.cnn.com/2012/12/09/black-in-america-its-not-just-about-the-color-of-your-skin/

Similarly someone who is mostly African may have genes for white skin, while someone who is mostly German may have genes for black. In either case people are put in one group or another based on their culture's norms and a select few phenotypes they see, visually.

Were people expecting a graphical overhaul?

The game looks a ton clearer, going by the video. I haven't played the original but the PS4 version is noticeably better.

You'd have to be a hardcore fan to consider the upgrade worth it but this is a huge game so having it available on the PS4 makes sense.

The first few Season 3 episodes are now available on Amazon. You may be able to watch the first one for free (not sure if that's for everyone, or a perk of having Prime).

Anyways Nick is deliberately not making the episodes available online in order to encourage fans to tune in.

I won't keep bumping this as often if there isn't enough interest in discussing this season. I may wait a few weeks, at least.

The information provided guarantees that he is trophy only, if you think about it.

Anyways with 3 announced so far, third party characters become increasingly unlikely as they certainly will not want to devote too much of the roster to Non-Nintendo characters.

There are certainly some I'd love to see, though. Rayman/Globox, Banjo-Kazooie...
