In Germany in no way the game had a bad reputation. The very popular Nintendo magazine N-Zone gave it a 91% and declared it to be one of the best Gamecube games of all time. The also well known german internet magazine Mag64 gave it 81%.
And they were right. It's a very good game that is reminiscent to Zelda and a must have in every GCN collection.
@kesley: I prefer a lightweight controller that I can easily hold in my hands. The NeoGeo Arcade Sticks and the likes look like something the Mafia chains to your foot before throwing you into the water. Pretty bulky.
Yes, of course. If someone buys a rare Metal Slug for $600 it's a much better game than when you play it for $9 on the Wii. The shabby classic controller is so cheap that you can't enjoy the game the slightest bit.
Oh, and while we are at it: I'd love to see an article about the very limited golden Commodore 64 (screwed on a lovely commemorative plate). It goes for around 5500 Euro on E-Bay but it's worth every cent. You can't play Winter Games on a normal C64 because that is so unworthy.
All right. I think I understand. The Neo Geo Gold Club is a world of exclusive gaming experiences and benefits. It is only "for the few", designed to satisfy members who demand the highest of standards. Right?
$649 for a console? $199 for a controller? There are probably no more than five people in the world interested in these things.
And I doubt that the experience of playing games on it is better than playing games on a standard Neo Geo or the Wii or anything else. It's just for people who do not know what to do with all their money.

Re: Analogue Interactive Unveils The Super-Exclusive Black Label Neo Geo CMVS
Pfft. These things are ridiculous. Now you have bugs in your games and woodworms in your console.

Really? More proof that a lot of people have too much money.

Re: Neo Geo CMVS Gets Ebony Wood
Sorry, but what has it to do with Nintendo? Why no coverage about the new Panasonic NNSD997S stainless steel microwave oven?
