I'm workin' my way trough the Temple of the Ancient right now. And you know, there was something that surprised me pretty much. This temple, containing many amazing artifacts, also of course has an amazing weapon for Cloud. So, what did the ingenious Ancients think was a good weapon?
Nail Bat.
Yes! It's not just a bat, it's a bat with a nail in it! Wow!
Hell, that sort of weapon belongs in Earthbound if ya ask me.
