A whole week in between updates. ... And also a whole week of Metroid Prime 2: Echoes and PlanetSide. Really, I've just sort of stopped caring about writing updates for myOtaku, when I could be playing one of those two instead. And my semi-regular pattern of updating probably won't resume until I beat MP2 -- or at least not until I stop spending nearly all my free time on it and PlanetSide. But who knows when that could be.

About the new midi, though. ... I've sort of been trying to think of a tune from each of the oracle games in the Zelda series to put up, since besides those, I had a midi from each game besides the two Four Swords ones. And finally I remembered the Tarm Ruins theme from Oracle of Seasons, which I really like, and I was able to find a good midi for it, so up it goes.

Oracle of Seasons has always been my favorite of the two oracle games. I think it's because OOS is the one focused more on combat and less on puzzle solving. ... Though I also think that's just because some of the puzzles in Oracle of Ages were really aggravating. Some were really simple for figuring out what you needed to do, but figuring out how to do it required a lot of trial and error. Such as those stupid floor tile rooms, where you have to step on every tile without crossing over any that you've already stepped on. In the end, I just found most of OOA's dungeons kind of boring in comparison to OOS's.

And in PlanetSide news, I killed me a BFR (BattleFrame Robot, i.e. a giant mech) last night. The thing came into our base's courtyard by itself, so a bunch of people on foot rat packed it and took out its shield generator (small arms fire pierces their shields, and they have a hard time aiming down at people right next to them) while I shot anti-vehicular Phoenix missiles at it from the base's roof. Got 900 experience for killing the bugger, and finally managing to take one out made my day; I've damaged BFRs before, but I had never landed the killing blow.
