Turns Out Drunk Navi Is Just As Annoying As Sober Navi

I, like everyone else familiar with this beaten to death meme, am pretty tired of the “shit X says” videos. Regardless, the irony of featuring Navi for this video is enough to warrant another pass through the joke made popular on the internet.

Kotaku AU

Wow. This is just… wow. Minecraft is home to some of the most incredible user creations I’ve ever seen, but this nigh on perfect reconstruction of Ocarina of Time is absolutely breathtaking.

Gametraders Vs Nintendo And The Retail Stalemate

Kotaku AU

Mark Langford sounds a little tired, and you can’t blame him.

As Managing Director of Gametraders, Langford’s company is at the forefront of another street date drama. After Gametraders grey imported copies of Super Mario 3D Land — selling ahead of Australia’s official release date — both EB and JB Hifi are reportedly selling official Australian copies ahead of Thursday.

For Better Or Worse, Ocarina Of Time Feels Like Coming Home

Kotaku AU

There’s a comforting wave of nostalgia. Then, slowly, the creeping sense that everything seems a little bit smaller than you remember. You wake up on the same bed, hear the same voices.

Ocarina Of Time As You’ve Never Heard It Before!

Kotaku AU

This video is like eating an entire bag of sherbet at once. It seems like a good idea at the time, but it just makes your brain explode and gives you an ulcer. This video is a bit like that. It takes an old classical song and uses sounds from Ocarina of Time to recreate the music. I think I have a headache…
