Ok so we should definitely preface this entry a little.

Gannon as a character is one of the most feared adversaries in video game history. No matter his form, whether pig demon or gigantic entity of destruction, one thing has remained constant throughout, namely that he's capable of enslaving the world with his almighty power and that fighting him is akin to trying to swim the Atlantic but the water is made of acid in that it is a horrific challenge and you're bound to loose some skin on your thumbs.

So with this in mind, how do you think fans felt when they experienced a Ganon boss battle in The Legend Of Zelda: The Wand Of Gamelon which ended in just one hit? Pretty disappointed I'd reckon.

To be fair, the disappointment levels were already at an all time high in these CDi titles mainly because it looked like it was bashed out at a Game Jam weekend and then animated on MSPaint, but this final boss battle truly was the final nail in any hope fans had of an enjoyable time.

Here this master of magic stands perfect still on a small platform hurling what look like moldy Jack O'Lanterns (which might as well be called Cack O'Lanterns) and awaits for you to climb a later and throw a wand in his face. It's over before you know it, and you know what? Maybe that's a good thing. Woof.
