I want to go buy a Nintedo just to have
a "new experience" in 3d gaming. Someone told
me today not to buy ZELDA because it is too addicting.

As for KIDE - this is how they make their money:
"In addition to Pokemon and WCW, the Company continues to expand its merchandise licensing program for the revolutionary Nintendo N64 video game system and its game characters, including Super Mario, Donkey Kong and the much anticipated holiday release of The Legend of Zelda, Ocarina of Time. The Company is the exclusive merchandise licensing agent representing Nintendo characters worldwide, except in Japan."

KIDE makes money off Merchandise Licensing Royalties.
Revenues from such and have no cost of goods sold. From the above,
it looks like KIDE will be aranging for ZELDA products to be produced
and sold. They signed Hasbro up to do the Pokemons. Wonder who they
will sign up to do Zelda? What is cool is that they don't have
costs of goods sold to do this! Another company has to produce the
items and KIDE just recieves checks in the mail ! Not a bad business
just collecting checks <g>

KIDE also has the number 1 watched TV show in the morning slot
across the country. Its the Cartoon, Pokemon. I don't know how
much they make off the advertisement slots. Has anyone seen the cartoon? Its a phenomenon.

Regards,
S.W.
