A thread more so for impressions, expectations and objections without any specific story or location detail to the game, perhaps? One thing Im anxious of is if Nintendo can keep Zelda at this standard and if so, how long will it take to get the next game....

@Rummy you see your post highlights the clicky, buddy defence thing that's going on here - it's especially obvious when moderators consistently lack the impartiality they're supposed to exercise. You knowing Flink personally really shouldn't mean his views or opinions are more so regarded than mine, if you're really about creating a fair community here. Likewise with Ashley too - there have been times when you've spoken on behalf of the person I quoted in a sort of support-defence way, ironically usually followed by "to be fair". I really don't know how disagreeing with a statement is dismissing it... I never insuated Flink was lying. I trust the experiences that members postbis factual. I merely disagreed with the statement and thought a main motivation to post this observation was because it kind of aligned with his own sentiment - I'm still not dismissing his point. I have accepted it and came with my own personal opinion as a live owner of the device in question. Im really not bothered by people disliking the things I like. I've been very critical of Nintendo too but that seems to disappear into mist. It's become a very toxic environment IMO. It's a consistent cycle of personal alignments and battle lines. I'm not leaving the forum to be dramatic but it just feels like a waste of time posting when all people choose to see are 'sides'. And yes I'm not going to lie it does get a bit personal - and that's because we've practically grew up together and personal life events were posted here... so it does feel a bit (sad?) when other members views and opinions seem valued more so than others. But hey I will take some accountability. If I've said anything that has offended you or made you feel ridiculed - please accept my sincere apology. That's not who I am and I always aim to discuss respectfully. A lot of us are friends on Switch so we'll still be linked. King_V salute.

Zealous? A good number of people who said they would not did buy it. I've here almost a decade, I would have hoped my character and intentions would have been acknowledged. Either way, I wish to ask to be deleted from this forum. I really can no longer tolerate the drawn out battle grounds/club thing that seems to be going on. Peace.

That beautiful theme of the town to the west is stuck in my head. Absolutely beautiful.

Ok good - so the discussion was your pupils felt there were no games on the Switch, you posted in a discussion board - my side of the discussion was simply to say as someone who owns the console I do not feel that way at all. I would have thought that was mature and meaningful enough as I would imagine that an opinion from someone who actually owns something people are critiquing would be of some merit. You claimed I only accept ultra positive views, but I have stated I have been very vocal about the lack of launch titles and some hardware issues. I would like to believe since I hold no extreme views for or against Nintendo, that this was a meaningful discussion.

Okay lets not have any discussion at all then and just post varied views without a counter-argument.

No. Not at all. I've been pretty frank with my opinion on what I call a fact that the Switch's launch was weak. But as someone who actually owns the system, I do not feel like there are no games to play. Pretty simple.

(But there are 200 channels with something worth watching...) But I take your point. In no way trying to patronise, I just can't help but feel - if Im being honest - that its your current opinion of Nintendo at the moment - that makes you more inclined to agree with such a statement. But anyway...

But the weather system is random so I doubt thats what its there for. With the sensor, I walk in 4 directions to see when it beeps and following the direction it beeps the most and Im usually right.

How old are they? [Edit: 10 year olds] While its brilliant raising the topic with pupils surely we must take comments such as "There are no games for it" with a pinch of salt as by definition that statement is false. When I was a 10 year old, I was more than happy/thankful with my console at the time and the one or two games I did have - for the fact that Im not paying for them. Im not sure if I can agree with the above statement especially when there are games available now.

Thus they are ignorant children.

I really,like really really love them. All it really takes is some patience and their pretty open ended, rarely having just one way to figure them out - and I especially love how the shrines are very diverse. (and their titles). I also like how the Runes use the motion controls.

Then do something else in the meantime. Thats the beauty of this game for me - and there are many things to do. I wonder where @darkjak is?

Couldn't have said it better. Glad you're enjoying it as much as I am. I think this game is a great example of when to allow a game to be delayed. This is the PERFECT Zelda - everything I've always wished it to be. Multiple things to do, multiple towns, expanded lore and history, a race that has mostly only been represented by one or two people, items put to good use on a regular basis... I could go on. SS I didn't feel like completing, TP I completed in like 3 days and never went back to - But this game... Im probably over 40 hours in and I haven't done much yet feel fulfilled to the point of actually holding back putting on the Switch today because I know its going to sap time. Nintendo's practices are mostly questionable with regards to their hardware but when they make stuff like this I cant help but forgive their trespasses.

I think it's a superb idea. The dynamic weather is outstanding. The fright you get from thunder and the panic when your gear starts gaining static... Hoping Pikmin 4 gets this.

I agree. The Switchs launch was an open invitation for an easy profit. You can see the developers behind FAST are raking it in by the speed of their announcement of the patch to allow friend races. With the low sales of RE7 across the board, for example, would have been boosted by a Switch port for launch, no matter how inferior the port. Though could be Nintendo's fault with the late dev kits.

Had some LOLs yesterday with the games we didn't touch yet: Telephone, Shaver and Fake draw... That Fake Draw loool.

I've got it. Its def worth it. Im thinking maybe its a bit too fast (lol) but there is no real emphasis on braking as opposed to the switching boost mechanic. Looking forward to the update for friend races.

LOL. Everyone has a unique story. Does anyone else feel sheer terror when those guys randomly appear? (keeping it non spoiler)... The smaller guys are fine and have good prizes but the bigger ones... Reminds me of the advice that dude gave Neo when ever he sees an agent...RUN! (but evening running might not save you). In these instances though I find the fast travel a bit cheap. I feel it should be inactive during battle.

I paired it with my PC and set up the button config, but it wasn't working in the Steam game (the controller lights were still acting as if they were looking to pair)... Though Im sure theres a way.

Ah... (What does that mean??)

LMAO I knew it was coming. Damn hackers. News gets weirder and weirder... Has anyone tried connecting their pro controller to PC? I wanna give pro evo a go with it.

Im thinking after the Switch presentation they will relax their on stage presence a bit... Im not too bothered really; a video stream of games is enough for me. And at least without a live presentation gamers won't moan about translation issues and the like.

Damn that volcano is daunting to travel up, I only just made it to the Shrine in the last few seconds so I didn't have to venture up it again without the neccesities. Love how they replicated the realism of going up a volcano. This is no friendly walk up a hill.

Yeah, even the difference between grip and handheld mode is noticeable - its the contours of the grip and pro controller that make it feel better (for me) - in handheld I find it to be too flat for intense games like Zelda, but fine with lower input games like Snipperclips (and games like Pokemon especially...ohh, cant wait for that beauty).
