I think it’s a littlesilly for him to have it on his hand his whole life and all of a sudden one day “ZOMG, you’re a chosen hero, Link! who would have guessed?!?”

but really- in the end it doesn’t matter, i guess. it’s just a game (*gasp* oh no she didn’t just say that?!”

oh yes. I did.

Miyamoto is left handed and he said the controls were fine for a left handed person.

Besides, the GC version has Link left handed.

I tried to post a mailbag a week, but I stopped for a month. Even when I waited a month, no good questions came in. All I keep getting is “when is a new Zelda coming out.”

What am I supposed to do? I don’t have much to work with and if I don’t post one, it’s forgotten. It is a slow Zelda time, and not much on the Nintendo front. So, that is why you got this.

I am sorry if you are not happy with it, but give me more to work with and I will work with it.

There had to have been more interesting emails than this to pick from, and on top of that I think you could give a little bit more thorough responses.

I don’t mean to offend at all.. but like Sam said, the mailbag is supposed to be helpful and and interesting. And this was just kind of bland.

Please, just consider my critisim. People who don’t submit questions need to have a reason to read a mailbag. Some mailbags are funny, some are informative. Yours is neither. You have answered most of the questions with “I’ll email so-and-so and get back to you”.

That immidiatly can be helped by one simple thing; don’t post the question in the mailbag until you have the reply from so-and-so and can give an half interesting answer. That might mean holding the question from the mail bag until the next week, but so be it.

Your writing is hardly very interesting either. A sentance or two at most containing nothing but a straight non-answer. Try and make it funny, or, if you can’t manage funny, interesting. Write about things relating to recent gaming news and talk about theorys you might have about the industry. Make sure you tell people that these are your own views, but make a personality for yourself, don’t be a robot.

You can’t be blamed for it all, of course, you don’t seem to have much to work with. So advertise the mailbag a bit on the forums, if you’re allowed, or even take unanswered questions on the forum and answer them yourself.

If you can’t make the mailbag an attractive feature, maybe you shouldn’t be writing it.
