P.S Will Louie get busy at E3?

You never know.  The problem with Louie is you never know if he's gonna find a cat lover or someone that's gonna call Animal Control.

I'm all with Mario PRG's being loaned out to different developers: I just want EAD to work on a few things... things that will get people really hyped up. I mean, Ninteno's games are fine right now, but there's a dwindling audience. No random gamer sat down and thought "Oh hey! It would be awsome if there was a handheld with two screens!", but so many people were genuinley excited about the Zelda demo show at that fateful Spaceworld show 4 years ago. Guess which one Nintendo decided to develop.

Yeah, Nintendo has to be innovative, I really couldn't agree more; but it seems like they're focusing all their attention on wild gambits. They're losing their reputation in the process.

Another little tidbit about Four Swords Plus: it looks like Hyrule Adventure, the mode that plays like Link to the Past but with four players, is bigger than anyone expected. Apparently the world map is even bigger than the one in LttP!

I didn't think of this till today, but does that include both the Light World and Dark World? If they are comparing only the Light World then it wouldn't technically be twice the size of the ALttP map.
