From the beginning I was pretty skeptical. I mean, none of the other authors of those 68k games had gotten letters about Kirby/Mario/Zelda. Those look almost exactly as their original counterparts. As I too, read more into the copyright stuff, it did sound/look more plausible. Then I went to Ticalc.org, I had seen Kirk Meyer's "Monopoly" (spelt wrong for a reason) recieve a similar fate, but by Haspro. It is surely possible...but in all honesty, Haspro didn't do crap to him, and is Nintendo really gonna do anything to you if you bring them more business. Just think of all the people that havent played Metroid (Probably only 1 or 2 right...)They can play a version of Metroid on the calc.,than go out and buy any gameboy or DS and play the game that started it all.

Though I have to admit it was VERY convincing, Just enough to leave doubt in your mind.

i like 'em to...until about the 5th repetition...it's just one of my things, ya know? But, it's not really my place to say he has to take it off (hell, i'm not even a mod here), so I just go by adblock and i'm satisfied, he keeps his avatar, and we all continue on with life...unless you're dead...but that's obvious...

Dude, what you guys talking about, I think patori's avatar is awsome. I hope he doesn't get rid of it.

The problem I have is that it slows my connection to a craaaawl every time it loads, which is rarely, but still... I just use adblock, and life is good. :)
