Zelda BotW was so masterfully crafted, I never once minded the vast expanse. Most other games, it definitely would have been an issue. But not with Zelda. You’re always on the lookout for a puzzle, or a shrine, or a hidden secret... and there’s always something within a stones throw. It never got boring, and was a constant thrill from hour 1 to hour 200.

@gcunit The Switch was also my first day one console. After following news about it for so long, finally holding it in my hands was surreal. And playing BotW undocked that same day was even more surreal: I never fully believed in the hybrid potential of the Switch until I could actually try it out for myself.
@k8sMum
Hate to be the negative Nancy, but if you thought Mario 64 was whole lot of "nothingness" in the world, BotW will show you just how large "nothing" can be lol
It's a fine game, don't get me wrong, and I've spent over a hundred hours and done pretty much everything except getting every Korok Seed, but it's not a Zelda game and the world could have/should have been about a third smaller than what it is.
I really don't agree on that. The small bits of 'walking around in nothingness' made it all the more fulfilling when I stumbled on a Korok seed, shrine or other secret. I totally agree with @JaxonH on this, so it seems to be a matter of taste
Honestly it's weird that they designed the app to need specific games be added into it, instead of just being a general chat room that you can invite anyone into. You'd think since it's not even on the dang Switch itself that it wouldn't need game-specific chats lol

I'd forgotten how much I adore Dragon's Dogma (since my 360 isnt hooked up). And it is so smooth on the go!
-Still wish it had gotten a true sequel though. I know the story doesn't really allow for a sequel with some novel new ideas but it would have been nice to go through the cycle again with say DMC5 graphics. lol.
Taiko is good for the soul, Hoisa!

@IceClimbers game looks super fun. The original grand theft auto on PlayStation was one of my most played games back in the day. But I'm already thinking of getting at least one of the RE games( maybe the origins collection which obviously has two), and castlevania collection. I still have cuphead to finish, xc2 torna, Celeste and gungeon which I picked up in an eshop recently and yoshi which hasn't been opened at this point. But damn shakedown looks good
Yet another game to add to May... Pixark. Thankfully it looks like this one will actually run well.
Mortal Kombat XI plays great on Switch btw. Definitely can notice the graphical downgrade on the TV, but, it’s still 60fps and doesn’t have super low resolution, so I’m happy. On handheld it looks just spectacular, and again, great resolution with 60fps. The game is fantastic. It’s been about 15 years since I’ve played Mortal Kombat. Series has really come along way and it feels so good now.
Dragon’s Dogma, also a winner. Doesn’t look quite as dazzling as on my GPD Win 2, but the Switch doesn’t heat up like a toaster oven when playing it, so I say fair trade.
And we have SteamWorld in 2 days. Sigh... multiple great games releasing back to back, but I just can’t. I’m neck deep in Final Fantasy X, and I intend to finish my 2nd playthrough since I’ve come this far (and I wanna give X-2 a proper go this time too).
What am I gonna do with Final Fantasy XII dropping in a week. A FF marathon, that’s what. FFX, then FFX-2, then FFXII. Practically everything in May is gonna pile up in the meantime.

That was you who posted about Saint’s Row preorder discount, right? Thank you. I jumped on that. $35 for digital, which is only 7gb total... need that kind of variety on the SD to have at all times.

I caved and got both games. Loving them both. I just admit I'm already in love with my Switch. I had to google where to put the sd card! I'd never have found the spot, heheh.
A couple of questions: do I put it on sleep mode when it's docked overnight? Are the joycons charging when connected to the console? How do I find out how much charge they have left? Thanks for any help.
@k8sMum I bought mine near launch and I don’t think I’ve ever switched it off. It’s always in sleep mode in game and when I have the time to play again, boom it wakes up straight to where I left off which is one of the best things I love about the switch.
You can see how much charge it has left by going to the controller icon on the home screen and leaving the joycons on the switch charges everything.
We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.
