I'll admit, in the often shallow world of video game news, its nice to see something good come out of video gaming.

And while I've heard these sorts of stories before, I think it is nice to see that amongst the things this organization decided would make a great thanks for these troops' service, a game console is on that list.

This is a great story to read as the holidays approach too, and we're (US) still fighting two wars abroad.

Major thanks to our troops at home and abroad! Hopefully the Wii can help with your recovery or at least take your mind off of it.

ScottBarkman5659d ago

Absolutely. :) Free Wiis never hurt nobody.

Zelda Replay: Majora's Mask

VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Is Ocarina of Time as legendary as I remembered it? For the most part, yes. In spite of a handful of missteps — a few obtuse puzzles, some tedious backtracking, and a clunky stealth sequence — I don't believe the last 23 years have been unkind to it. Ocarina remains a brilliant example of the medium, a landmark game that shaped the future of its own franchise and 3D gaming in general. After more than two decades it retains its inventive dungeon design, challenging puzzles, dynamic combat, wistful storyline, unforgettable music, and empowering open-air freedom. I feel confident calling it one of the greatest games of the fifth generation, even if I'm no longer prepared to list it among the five best games ever made."

Pure unadulterated fun. They don't make them like this anymore...especially not the triple A industry.

Back when video rental was a thing, I rented out Majoria's Mask, I never finished it though. I did buy the 3DS version before the eshop shutdown, so maybe one day I'll finally play through the whole thing, it's amazing how well these games hold up though. I briefly played Ocarina of Time for a while and it was really fun.
