Am I the only one who likes the crying (and Zelda's voice overall) in the English dub? It sounds very believable to me, whereas the two other voiceovers strike me as odd in the pacing of their delivery. It could be the British accent - similarly I quite enjoyed the Xenoblade voice-work whereas many people hated it.
And, oh man...I've actually done well in not getting too hyped about this game. And then somehow they blew me away with this trailer.
The king sounds fairly distinctive in each language, old lady too.
As a side note, in the European Spanish dub, the goron says "espero que le saques partido" which can be translated to "use it well" or "make the most out of it". Which means whatever he's doing with his blue magic, he's giving it to you.
So many conflicting reports of BotW being 900p and 1080p on the Switch. Anyone know? I'm not going to get BotW on the WiiU because after experiencing Xenoblade Chronicles X in 720p which looked dreadful on my display, I don't want to ruin BotW with that horrible blurred display.
I do realize that this might have been discussed already, but are there any news as to what the contents in the Master Edition of Breath of the Wild, PAL edition? Why on earth is it less contents than the NTSC?

The dubbing teams are top notch, almost Disney level to find voice actors that match the pitch of the original Japanese actors.
Going by the trailer and comparisons, I think I'll just have to suck up my dislike of the Hyrule pronunciation enforced by Nintendo for the Spanish languague (Latin America does not use the same rules for that as Spain, damn it!) and use the LA dub. I loved it. English sounds nice, but Zelda's cry feels so empty considering she throws herself in Link's arms, wailing, due to seemingly screwing up something important.
Don't mind the voice overs, but this video from DF shows that there's a ''Main Quest'', presumably this means that there will also be minor or side quests, and by the looks of it you can select them and they will point you in the right direction; like any open world RPG from the last 10 years, but it's nice to see that it's also making an appearance in Zelda. Hopefully this means that we're getting some substantial side quests this time.
Seems like I have to import a ME from the US.. Does anyone know if more will be available? It is sold out everywhere.. But, then again, knowing Nintendo, they probably won't..
@espresso
I'm sorry, but Reggie did say in the Treehouse stream that the Master edition would be "extremely limited" while the Special edition would have a bit more stock - but not much more.
@Octane I detest side quests. Either it somehow links to the main campaign (and therefore not a side quest), or it's irrelevant filler only there to pad out the supposed gameplay hours.
Please don't let BotW be stuffed with needless filler.
You guys had me at blood and semen.
What better way to celebrate than firing something out of the pipe?
@gcunit Sorry. Was not aware about that point in the community rules. Never seen that before on a forum, so not used to it. The message was good, though, so I have taken away the profanity.
"I'm so sick of this. Nintendo is the worst when it comes to supply. They always have to release like 10 units at a time to create hype. And 90% of them are bought by scalpers who sell it at triple the price on Ebay. It happened with the Majora's Mask 3DS, Amiibo, NES Classic, and now this. I hate having to sleep with one eye open because they pop up on Target.com at 3 AM with no warning whatsoever. Nintendo really needs to change this extremely annoying marketing."
@Octane @gcunit
One of you is going to be happy and the other not, it seems. Side quests were confirmed in one of the Treehouse streams https://youtu.be/qadzCB3CLlI?t=16317 . He even accepts the quest, which is about a legendary white horse roaming nearby.
I don't mind side quests as long as they're not exclusively of the Ubisoft variant: i.e. go here and collect/kill/protect 10 flower/enemies/cargo items. Good side quests can be mini stories on their own, flesh out the world and reward those who go the length.
Xenoblade looked just fine on my massive TV. Were you sitting too close?
Hah, no, my 1080p PC monitor, not ideal for games which don't run at 1080p, but SM3DW, NSMBU, Wind Waker and Twilight Princess look fantastic on this monitor, I put Xenoblade Chronicles X on and I wince at the loss of quality.
@gcunit I love side quests, especially if they're given similar treatment to the main quest, with its own helping of back-story and drama, and give you a proper incentive rather than just rupees I can just find on the ground. Perhaps like some kind of minor item you can't get anywhere else that upgrades the experience without making it necessary or too easy. Oh, and you're never forced to do them, but they're also not too hard to find, all being in some kind of central location. One with a complex time-based schedule, perhaps...
Why yes, Majora's Mask is my favorite Zelda game. How did you guess?
