Topic: New Camp Hyrule Open For Business

[WindyMan]

Nintendo's annual Internet get-together of fans has taken on a decidedly different look this year.

 In years' past, Camp Hyrule was an exclusive hangout of a thousand or two of Nintendo's most loyal and dedicated web-heads.  Potential campers needed to register in advance, and if you were lucky enough to register before the masses (or before the registration server crashed from the strain) you got to participate in games, activities with Nintendo of America staff, and even chat with high-ranking Nintendo personalities.  There have even been tidbits of new game information to come out of the events.    

Camp Hyrule has returned this year, but with a different look and format.  Gone is the interactivity of a week-long chat.  In its place is a simple website that shows a map of the camp.  Anyone is free to participate in a series of flash-based games, post (NOA-reviewed) camp memories to a message board, and download wallpapers.  Visitors can also enter to win a life-sized Link statue.    

As it stands, it doesn't appear that anything else will come out of this new Camp Hyrule, but the week is young.  Should any interesting things pop up at camp, we'll let you know about it right here at Nintendo World Report.

COWS BREEDING WITH HORSES?!

NOA!  This inter species mating is inappropriate!

On a long car trip with my wife a few years ago, we went crazy and were talking about all kinds of strange things.  Since we had passed many, many cows, we decided that cows aren't really that useful, aside from their meat.  We also noted that horses are good for riding, but there's not much to do with them otherwise.

So we decided that someone should genetically engineer an animal that looks like a horse but tastes like a cow.

And, believe it or not, there were no drugs involved during this trip.

That, and if you ignore the concept of dairy...

Actually, I think we discussed that too (it's been awhile...)  The solution was to give the Horse/Cows udders.

Also, we want "Miniature Giraffes."  We think someone could make a killing with those things.

Cows provide leather. Horses provide glue. Horses also pull wagons, plows, etc.

This is the worst derailed topic of the year.


On the subject, I would feel weird going to Camp Hyrule "summer camp" at my age.
