see i admit to a point they are but to be honest most games theses days are just a copy of the old games with a little extra added u no like better grafics. but to be honest tho wen it comes to games if u gave ma a game cube to play for 6 hours or a playstation or x box i would easily go for te gamecube i mean x box n playstation r more advanced but there is soo much of that u can take while zelda is just plain old addictive lol
