I havent bought anything from Nintendo exactly for this very reason in ages!!!
I remember buying Zelda:OOT and Majoras Mask, and as I played this so called "sequal", I was thinking...Boy this game sure looks familiar...than I realized that the characters where just copy and pasted from the last game :-|
Unfortunately Nintendo is Lazy...But who can blame them, people gobble up there stuff anyways, So why change
