    The Twilight Princess manga was incredibly well recieved, for what it's worth. I'm not big into LoZ or manga, so I can't expound on why, but it is worth noting.
    I didn't particularly enjoy playing Knights in the Nightmare, but the art and sound design were fantastic! Good pick from David.

The had a King Borgan in a mascot costume you could get your picture taken with, and it had of course a special ornate cardboard frame for the polaroid. I have one of those, which has to be one of the weirder pieces of WD ephemera I've come across.

    As a big jrpg fan I will say old sports games arnt that bad. They are cheap but also... I was a kid in the 90s, so when I put on an old fifa or nhl I suddenly get to remember the stars I looked up to as a kid. Heroes I had forgot with time players we never get to see on TV again, we get to play as etc. It´s not only nostalgic playing these games, its like re-visiting a historical era in sports. Also, if you just miss a couple of games in the shelf to fill it out, cheap sports games are the perfect way - great way until you find better games.
