I thought that opening was horribly annoying long before I even knew that it wasn't the real One Piece opening 1 and that the show had been butchered. As for the BGM they replaced music like this: http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=fY7WNpP6sL0 With their generic synthesized music. I guess orchestral music was not acceptable for kids?

Mayumi Tanaka is a much better Luffy and always will be. I disagree, though, the whole dub was a disaster. Every single thing. But especially Sanji's voice. Forget about the fact that they gave him a lollipop... His voice was horrible. I also really despise them not just for the stupid edits they made (including taking out a whole arc) but for changing the BGM. One Piece's BGM is amazing. 4Kids should be put to shame forever for taking that away.

I'll watch whatever is available legally. I have no preference just as long as the dub isn't a butchered mess like 4Kids One Piece, but cases like that are extremely rare in anime dubbing nowadays.

Listening to quite a few concertos right now! lol

Actually I started with Streetlight Manifesto so I generally prefer their versions just because I listened to them first. I really like Bandits of the Acoustic Revolution, though.

My favorites are probably classical, progressive rock (especially jazz-influenced), some classic rock, soft rock, and Baroque/Chamber pop. But overall I really like two things in popular music: strong classical/jazz influence, and wind instruments (no shocker there, right? lol). Should probably elaborate on classical, though. My favorite types of classical are Impressionist, Renaissance (choral), Baroque, and Classical. I'd say that's about right in order. The only things I don't listen to are metal (I don't like screaming), country western (just don't like it), electronic, and rap. But I'm no hater, I like to keep an open mind. My favorite bands: Chicago (60s-70s, not later) The Beatles Streetlight Manifesto The Divine Comedy Blood, Sweat & Tears Eagles Kansas My favorite composers: Claude Debussy Thomas Tallis Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Johann Sebastian Bach Maurice Ravel Antonio Vivaldi George Frideric Handel Antonin Dvorak

Well, actually the New Super Mario Bros. title shown there wasn't an official title. In fact I believe it was just a tech demo much like the Zelda one. I will be disappointed if it launches with a New Super Mario Bros. game. I honestly thought that was an incredibly odd choice to be the first thing to show us of their first step into HD, but maybe that's just me. Hopefully Wii U launches with a Mario title like Super Mario 64/Super Mario Sunshine. That is with open worlds and not the linearity that they've been stuck with for the past few 3D Mario titles. Honestly, if I wanted linearity, I would play 2D Mario.

Considering that they had not even a single awesome title to show off at this last E3 it is a bit worrying! They didn't even have a single first party title. =/

Majora's Mask was a direct sequel to Ocarina of Time. While it's not completely out of the question that they'd do that with the Wii U Zelda, it's VERY unlikely. Especially considering we already have Skyward Sword. MM was released directly after OOT. Besides, the Zelda games have never looked like the tech demos.

It's not likely anything with happen with it, to be honest. They could really troll us and bring us a new Toon Link style. I'm not a hater of that style or anything, but they really need to give us a realistic Zelda for the introduction to HD. Either way they won't use that exact style, as that is just HD Twilight Princess. I'd love it, but I know they won't go with that. Hopefully they'll go with something close! I suppose that would be because they unveiled the 3DS at E3 2010 and released it before the next E3. That's not happening with the Wii U.

But what if it has good games? Then it is worth it, that's all a console is to me: Its games. The Wii's gimmick got in the way of its games, and it didn't have very many good games IMO so that's why I do not care for the Wii and its annoying gimmicks. However, I will give the Wii U a chance.

Fine, I can't argue much with that. In that case it's just a really "meh" remake. It's still very much a waste of my money. They played it so safe they might as well have never done it at all.

#1. That's really hard to believe. Unless it was only done for making it in 3D because nearly everything looks identical to the N64 game with updated textures. It's impressive how well they implemented the textures, I'll give them that. #2. Grateful? I'll be 'grateful' for Four Swords Anniversary, because that was free. However, for Ocarina of Time 3D, I spent my own money and I have no reason to be 'grateful' whatsoever. I wish I had never bought it because I gave up $40 that could have gone towards clothes, or even Skyward Sword which I probably won't be able to get for a while now. So... I chose a remastered port over a new Zelda. If only I had known. =(

I'm not big on cars. Just give me one that works and has air conditioning and I'll be happy. This was supposed to be my car, but stuff has happened. For example, right now it has an major alarm issue.

Marching band! Also college basketball and college football. I can't believe I actually enjoy football now. D:

Considering Microsoft's last couple of E3's I honestly wouldn't be shocked if they went down that road. I feel bad for Microsoft fans, those E3 conferences must be painful lol.

I understand. I'm really tired of Nintendo's gimmicks. However, at least this time it's an actual controller. lol

While I have my concerns of how it might hold up power-wise to Sony and Microsoft's next generation consoles, I'm not that worried about it myself. I am just happy to see Nintendo going HD, and lets be honest, due to how little Nintendo really showed us at E3, we haven't seen much of what the Wii U can do.

While I'm not 100% convinced right now, when we see Super Smash Bros. 4 I'm sure I will be. And if the Zelda is in a more realistic style (like the TP-style although obviously they can't go with that again) I will have to get it.

I already had Master Quest, and I bought the original OOT soundtrack a couple of years ago. Boss Rush mode is not something I would pay anything for. Now if they had given us the CD that's coming with Skyward Sword's first run that would have meant something to me. I want that one so bad. D: But with OOT3D I only gained a portable OOT/Master Quest port and one orchestrated track from the OST.

I only know English. I learned a tiny bit of Spanish in elementary school but I hardly remember any of it. To be honest, I don't have much interest in learning any other languages. Just knowing English is fine to me. Knowing Japanese to be able to import manga and read it would be cool, but then again that's just flat out stupid. There's no reason for me to need to learn a language for such a silly reason as that. Plus, learning Japanese would probably make me hate the American anime fanbase even more because then I'd realize even more how misplaced their random usage of Japanese words is. So... I'll pass. I don't need to be anymore annoyed by them. lol
