Super Mario Odyssey for me, I loved that game. BotW just didn’t click with me like past Zelda games.

Article of the year right here. Lol

@yeayeanaynay I’m sure you are right about that, but I am in the “please god, not Skyward Sword” camp. I really did’nt like it.

@yeayeanaynay I really want Wind Waker and Twilight Princess HD on Switch as well.

This DLC is pretty disappointing, hardly the “story DLC” it was billed as.

@SLIGEACH_EIRE welcome to the dark side! Lol. Enjoy

Just finished Steamworld Dig 2, look forward to this one.

Nice to see Nintendo sell well. I don’t see many TV commercials though, even on the stations that have usually have PS4/Xbox ones.

Ouch!

Maybe I’m in the minority, but I would love if Nintendo ported a bunch of Wii U games this year for Switch. I would double dip on Wind Waker and Twilight Princess HD for sure. Smash would certainly sell like gangbusters.

@faustcoolio yeah, it’s pretty disappointing especially when billed as “Story DLC”. Uninspired is how I would describe it at a minimum.

How did this game get on eShop? Nintendo needs to step up the quality control/curation.

@rjejr lol, your comment about your son made me laugh.

@rjejr that sounds awful, what the hell Nintendo. Guess I’ll put in on the back burner and continue with Steamworld Dig 2

@DairyOverdrive no, Sega still owns the IP.

It is strange, in a fun and weird way, that Bayonetta is part of the Nintendo family.

Day 1 for sure. Loved that game and was easily GOTY when it came out.

That is awesome. Another great reason to own a Switch.

Still a mediocre game.

I’d like to hear more about 2018’s lineup and plans for VC.

Nothing from that list, but I picked up Steamworld Dig 2 and Oceanhorn.

@MaSSiVeRiCaN I know, it’s crazy to expect a game that marketed its Kickstarter by promising a version for the Wii U and then launched to middling reviews (68-73 on Metacritic) only to come to Switch after the excitement has long since died to not be full price! /sarcasm

@zool don’t expect a 9. I have it on PS4 and it is a solid 7.

Yooka-LATEly and more expensive, what a joke.

That is a very cluttered screen when in combat

Not sure I’m crazy about the art style.

@LUIGITORNADO long read, but you hit some good points. I am one of those was that was disappointed in BotW.

The DLC better be worth it story wise and by that, I mean actually having a story.

Maybe next Nintendo will make a Splatoon timeline.........

The game looks fun enough for a family party setting and some of the stuff has high comedic potential. The problem is the game should have been a pack-in title.

Can’t wait to find this in the grocery store, and by “grocery store” I mean eBay.

I bought this on Switch and have yet to start it, glad the save issue has been addressed.

The Last Samurai and The Martian ones are pretty good. The IT poster is more creepy in the Mario version.

So the Breath of the Wild section will be long stretches of silence punctuated by a couple of piano keys here and there?

I hope the switch version will get the same inevitable markdowns that the other consoles will get. I would get it the $20 for on the go.

Okami on Switch seems like a no-brainer especially since the HD version is being re-released on PS4/XB next month. A real sequel would be awesome as would Viewtiful Joe since I never played it.

I’ll have to add this and Oceanhorn to the watchlist to pick up at some point.

@thewoosp yeah that’s the beginning of the last, I think it was the last one anyway, DLC pack Dragonborn. Definitely meant for higher levels.

I wish Nintendo took more cues from Skyrim for BotW in terms of overworld design. Skyrim’s world is much more “lived in” with tons of villages, keeps, caves etc to visit and explore. Interesting to note that between Oblivion and Skyrim, Bethesda dropped weapon degradation.

@dumedum it was too different, IMO, to be have been conceived from day 1 to be a Zelda game and I still have serious issues with certain design choices. Who knows, you could be right, I would love to hear the inside story someday though.

@carlos82 I felt the same way. I am convinced BotW started as a new IP and along the way got changed into a Zelda game. I think I would have liked Wild more if it was a new IP, because as a Zelda game it didn’t work for me.. The exploration was/is fun and I’m still “seeing the sights” even after beating the Ganon.

Nier wasn’t even nominated? What a crock.

@Tsurii why is that funny? The game is top notch and the story is very good.

As I recall you go to the Throat of the World fairly early in the story. What is grueling about that?

@MarcelRguez Nier not being nominated is a travesty.

Best score/music for BotW? The music, or lack thereof, was a far cry from past games and was barely there.

I thought Sun/Moon were the best Pokemon games I played in a long time. Too bad this isn’t on Switch, I’d get it day 1.

@Biff_ARMStrong Still doesn’t change the fact that the DLC is the most expensive in the industry. Some of us don’t care about the figures and the only way to get certain content is through amiibo. It is symtamatic of the horrid methods companies use to squeeze more and more money from players.

I’m sure this game will be a PS plus title sooner or later.

This is the worst (most expensive) example of DLC I have ever seen. Why does Nintendo get a pass for this?

@Neferupitou yeah, that was just one of many issues I had with the game. Enemy variety was sorely lacking for sure.
