I picked wisdom since to much muscles slowes youre brain, wile when your wisdom is at a very high level you can pick up stuff like martial arts pretty quick and you probably know how to move objects with bare mind power, and transport youreself without airplains.

Yes, courage is what I would take. It whats I need the most, by far.

Wisdom easily.
What is the point of having courage if you fail to grasp the concepts of reason and consequence?

i am defenitly not fit for courage you don't want me to cover youre backs, I'm to frightend and I rearly gamble on things which aqueires risk taking and would probably not stopp a bullit, with wisdom you can talk your way out of strugle or ease things up for your friends

I think I'm doing quite well with wisdom, and think deeply often (probably too much). And being a cold hard realist....courage comes in a bit more handy IRL.

but with massive power I could be a gangstar or thug with a lot of street creditt, or a power-lift champion, or become a lomberjack

I'd rather have the courage to act on my preexisting wisdom than have more wisdom and not the courage to act on it.

But with added wisdom, you may not need to act at all.

But isn't courage dependent of the wisdom of action?

Could be, I don't know if it is dependent or not.

The proportionality of any action is based upon the relative outcome. Courage may be needed to achieve any outcome, but only wisdom and knowledge is capable of grasping the proportional actions required to attain the outcome.
First with the head, and then with the heart, essentially.

That's true, but my reason is that I am not courageous enough to act upon the wisdom I already have. I guess it would be more beneficial to the short term that way, although with more wisdom it seems that there could be a larger benefit in the long term.

Wisdom is for chicks and power is for douchebags, so courage, obviously.

I just got through watching the premiere of Boardwalk Empire, so I'm all about 'power' right now.
Wisdom is something you can gain naturally throughout life. Power isn't as easy to come by.

What do you mean by "power"? If you mean superhuman power, then yes, that would be awesome, I would Ka-me-ha-me-HA!!! If you mean like the President or the Godfather, that would just be a hassle. If I had courage I wouldn't be so dumb, while wisdom would just make me acutely aware of how dumb I am.

in the game it allows you to have super-human strength, the ability to levitate and hurl fire-balls and turn into the beast known as Ganon. Dat's "power" for ya.

Well levitating would be pretty awesome. I'm not sure if I could resist that.

He could do the fireball thing before he had it though. He knocks over Link with it when Zelda runs from Hyrule Castle.

Courage. Wisdom is nice, but without courage we'd never try things, take risks or strive to do more than just accept what we've got or have.

I really don't remember any branded merchandise from my early childhood. I that's because my parents pretty much only let me watch PBS and I didn't get into videogames until later.

Of course, I don't mean that I didn't get into videogames as a matter of will, my parents didn't like them so I wasn't really able to play them until after like 3rd or 4th grade or something with some RTSs and then my grandma got me an SNES. The only two games I had were a Micky Mouse platformer and Starfox, and I sucked so bad at Starfox. I didn't even play Mario until the Gameboy Color reissue, lol. Except for some of those educational games, but we all know those weren't very fun. My dad claims I learned to read in a weekend with Reader Rabbit, but I don't remember that at all so I don't believe him.

Good God, I played that. My old man hooked our Tandy 1000 to our TV and I was in business.

It was one of the sequels, guessing from wiki, probably Reader Rabbit 3. I'm pretty sure my dad went straight to the Pentium, although I don't remember so I don't know, but I think it was Windows, I don't remember ever having DOS. At the very least I can remember him spending an inordinate amount of money on a Pentium 3 in early 2000. Which is incredibly hilarious in retrospect.

I highly disagree. It was very innovative for its time, and seeing as how it was the only other Zelda game in existence for a time, it only seems like the black sheep these days since most Zelda titles afterward followed the original's formula more.
