GBA is retro right?...
The Zelda games on the Game Boy and Colour are unique within the Zelda series as a whole. Strange plots, enemies, music, mystery and even gameplay plague the three games.

I wrote an article arguing that Web1.0, 2.0 and Web3 are all incorrect and inaccurate ways to categorize the web's history. Originally I was just going to write a post about how I didn't like the term Web3 but after reading about Web1.0 and 2.0 I don't like those either. It feels way too high level and ignores that the Internet...
