And the fight is on. Currys have it for £45 with the code ZELDA25 https://www.currys.co.uk/products/nintendo-switch-the-legend-of-zelda-tears-of-the-kingdom-10248678.html?s=09

It's apparently £50 at shopto I say apparently because it's showing me the price in Euros but it looks about right

Well I've got jetlag. It seems it hits (in the form of not being able to sleep) the day after I fly West. That obviously isn't good news as it's 2:30 here and I'm awake buuuut it gives me time to say I've spent today and yesterday (well technically yesterday and the day before) with @darksnowman in Madrid. Been good to finally meet another person from here and just hang out and mostly have food and talk about laundry (as you do).

None of your pictures from your last two posts are loading @Sméagol but maybe it's just for me? Travelling has got me itching to get a new camera again...

I've already seen people thirsting over Ganondorf so maybe the tears aren't going to be the only liquid at play (Too much?)

Well that's because you're a giant nerd who notices/knows stuff like that while I'm very much about the cosmetics 😋 Has it been tested following the release to see if they've addressed the difficulty when using rentals?

I'm kind of surprised they've not done a new box art removing the transfer pack reference

Maybe them realising their dads both had the same name. That's usually how conflicts are solved.

I heard the sequel in Japan is going to be a much more indecipherable version of the first while in the rest of the world it's going to be the Sonic movie with the characters digitally replaced. (Just realised this was basically your joke repeated but oh well!)

Well that's the sequel title sorted

Can't find many but this did amuse me: I think it's the phrase "gotten out of hand".

It's just "from Donkey Kong 64" in the movie.

Seeing them credit Iwata in the end credits was a really sweet touch. This however... He has admitted that he has no idea if there's a legal requirement to do so (and some other game composers aren't credited so perhaps) but it still feels shitty.

The phrasing of this sounds like something one of those vaporeon fans would say.

Maybe they're just grading their own game for you?

There is a scene at the very end of the credits

Just got back from seeing it

If anyone was wondering where the decision came from...

The Guardian doesn't like it, but their film reviews always tend to be bitter and angry anyway. A cinema chain has confirmed that their subtitled showing is English audio but there's another a bit closer that's not responded but think I'll give it a go. Conventional wisdom is that the word they've used indicates it's Spanish subtitles but original audio. Just a shame it's at 20:45 and I'm old 😅 Update On the flip side, The Verge is much more positive (giving credence to the idea it's main audience is fans as to be expected). There's nothing spoilery in that review but an interesting reference to a specific game early on may be one so perhaps worth avoiding until after you've seen it in case.

Why? The film is trash and you shouldn't waste your money. I waste my money on trash all the time. My money helps pay for you to be here 😋

Dunno but I'm looking forward to seeing the film regardless.

You seem to have mistaken what I said as criticism.

"overly goofy, bare-bones plot, filled with bad jokes" is what I'm expecting with the people involved tbh. Had a look at cinemas here and there's one advertised as subtitled but doesn't clarify what the audio language is so going to try and ask them at some point on the off chance it's English.
