If this is to be discussed further, open a thread in the "Other Topics Thread" and it can be discussed there. These forums are for discussion, but highly contentious issues shouldn't belong in regular collectible threads. I see that it was a mistake to post the original question and there is nothing I regret posting, but I didn't expect my original question to blow up the way it did nor did I expect the animosity directed towards my viewpoint on how to raise my children. I tried to be as respectful as possible in my replies, but this is obviously a topic that enrages and divides the collector community.
Batman wouldn't have any problems because he would already have all the gadgets in his belt and wouldn't need to run around a dungeon.
This and the outdated graphics have been our only complaints; I know the little bomb things have annoyed my wife, but that isn't really a complaint. She blows herself up trying to aim the things. I would have liked to see the shadow lady from the last game (Twilight Princess?) show up to guide Link instead of the blue-robot-lady.
My wife has this theory that this Hyrule is Hyrule pre-Windwaker. The cloud cities are now the islands in Wind Waker and the underwater is the land from Skyward Sword (did that make sense?).
This is, officially, the first in the Zelda series' timeline, so everything you see here is a precursor to everything in the previous games. This game follows the birth of the Master Sword, the creation of Hyrule, and the establishment of the cycle of Link, Zelda and Ganon fighting over the land and Triforce.
