Ganondorf Must Go on STIRKE!!!!

   The long time villian of the Legend of Zelda series must go on strike! He's be working overtime for Nintendo, and needs to take a vacation during the next game. Seriously, this guy needs a vacation. Ever since the game's first release in the 1980's Ganon/Ganondorf has been working non-stop for Nintendo. So I say he needs to take off during the next game and give another villian a chance to show his stuff in this wonderful gaming series. If he does not get his much deserved vacation of Link and Zelda. Ganondorf should go on a strike against Nintendo for unpaid overtime. Ganondorf deserves respect! He's a hard working villain who needs a break! Let Ganondorf have a vacation!
