The Nintendo Switch

I like the shrines idk

botw was good for wandering around looking at stuff but the meat of the linear progression bosses shrines etc wasnt that cool imho, i did like the master sword trials and the part of the dlc with the one wit obliterator both of those required you to actually try to be good at the game

i liked getting all the outfits and all the outfits for the horses

I wouldn’t bother recommending anyone buy a switch now

But why? Cos they'll come out with a new one soon?

Maybe a s/h one? They don't seem much cheaper. It's, as I say, because I've foudn there are games I have on my PS that I don't play because they're not big action games - puzzlers, retro-RPGs and platformers etc

idk i think 'trying to be good at the game' has never been a zelda thing the combat has always been a bit janky. which is fine zelda's an adventure game not a character action game

yeah clearly its not an integral part of the game but it is good and fun in this case, tho the getting good in the master sword trials is more about planning your attack than being good at the mechanics, im sure if youre really good at the mechanics it is easier, the only mechanic i ever got good at was the shield parry

from battling lynels and guardians of course, i like to kill and plunder those guys, same for taluses

my only wish for TOTK is that the word "Hookshot" appear onscreen while the item-get fanfare plays

Hmm, I don't know why I thought not being backwards compatible was a Nintendo thing. Maybe because they've had so many goofy systems/cartridges? Anyway, I hope the new one, whenever it arrives, still plays Switch games!

climbing kinda killed the hookshot's purpose sadly. everyone loves the hookshot

bring it back why not let the people hook around if they want

I hope the new one, whenever it arrives, still plays Switch games!

The clincher for me, spent too much on retro games/ previous gen stuff to then have to buy it all again...

Nintendo: ".....buy it all again, you say???"

Me:"No, thats not what I meant!"

Nintendo: <Snaps fingers>

4 extremely tan beasts

4 divine beige

Hookshot would allow you to jump over wet surfaces instead of failing to climb them

they should introduce climbing gloves in the new game (allows you to climb wet things) (first thing you get)

first task link builds a car. first "dungeon puzzle" link must find parking at the downtown REI.

to buy very expensive climbing gloves

to free solo Death Mountain. No ganondorfs this time. Just a person, a mountain, and the family that person leaves behind. 2nd half of the game is zelda pitching link's doc to the streaming giants.

lol

need new thread imo

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

SORRY, you can't climb the kingdom. Too many tears, please try again later

Nintendo Direct tomorrow 7am PST

what if mario was on drug's

pretty weak 3rd party stuff, 1st party saving it as always. Elephant Mario already giving me the creeps, bravo.

yeah not much for me otherwise, but i definitely went from disappointed its not a 3d mario to hype over the course of taht trailer so well done

i guess theres a nonzero chance i play the star ocean 2 remake someday

wonder for sure

can't lie Wonder looks dope

also nice to know i can play all 4 pikmin games if ever i get the itch to try that series

As someone who hasn't played any since the first, are 2 and 3 really worth going through, or it is the kind of thing where I should just wait for part 4? The games seem incrementally designed

yes v incrementally designed. 2 and 3 are really good games and well worth playing, but you might as well just wait for 4.

Nintendo Direct tomorrow 7am PST

how time flies

is it Metroid Prime 4 time yet?

broke my switch lite replacing a joy stick rip

or at least it wont currently turn on

dont think theres any rumors about prime 4 its total radio silence there still. theres been rumblings of a new donkey kong game for a while thats the only thing i know

yeh I'm not getting my hopes up really, probably moved MP4 to Switch 2 launch.
expecting a lot of ports in this direct which I'm ok with at the end of a gen.

yeah not sure what there even is left for them to do this gen besides DK unless theyve decided they dont hate f-zero anymore. everythiung else has a game or two

as always would love to see a totally new first or second party thing. have they even put out a new IP game since astral chain

Yeah I dunno, everyone always thinks they want new Nintendo IP but then they release stuff like Arms and it’s like, ok actually, just give us another Mariokart.

i'm dying for them to bring back Elite Beat Agents

Arms was pretty fun for a bit, it just didnt have legs

new SaGa game hell yeah

new vanillaware rpg too, looks like kinda standard unstylish medieval stuff though

hey look, the only really good Paper Mario game.
also surprised that the Another Code rumours were true, was convinced that was some internet prank. loved the DS one so much.

don't think i'd even heard of that one
