I've been playing through Zelda on my NES for the first time and i got the map in Dungeon 3 and i was like...WOW!

its a swastika..i'm jewish and i'm not offended or anything i'm just surprised..actually i think its hilarious...is it in the VC version?

i know its a symbol in the Asian world for good luck but i'm really surprised they didn't change the dungeon around in the US version..

anyway..thoughts?

Exactly... The Swastika is a symbol for good luck UNLESS its slanted.. that's the Nazi swastika. The one in Zelda is not slanted, therefore it is an Asian symbol of good luck. Do you really want Nintendo to change a classic game that's 22 years old just because some people don't understand what a Nazi swastika looks like?
