Zelda Universe received this OST as a gift from forum member dark-hero (who personally edited all of the tracks!) in hopes we would stick it up on our soundtracks section – lo and behold, the soundtrack cometh, like a jackpot at a casino.

Hey there everyone. Matt here. You all know me as Μαtt on the forums. Let’s get started.

On December 17th, 2008, Liberty Mutual Fire Insurance issued a lawsuit against Nintendo of America. The company asserts that a fire that destroyed a Kentucky house was caused by a faulty Nintendo DS AC Adapter.  The lawsuit demands $236,304 USD be payed in damages to a Mr. French Harmon.

One of the many charges against Nintendo in this lawsuit is that Nintendo failed to “adequately, properly and safely design, manufacture, assemble, inspect, and test” the Nintendo DS AC Adapter.

Nintendo has recalled DS Adapters in the past. The reason being the apparent risk of overheating and fire.  However, these chargers were only recalled in Japan. The lawsuit is against Nintendo of America only.

Yea you read that right. I know that a decent number of you downloaded Mega Man 9. By now most of you that downloaded the game should have beaten it. You’ve probably gotten the DLC for the game and beaten it on hard mode. You think you’ve found everything thing there is to know about the game. Be prepared to be knocked off your high horse!
