@JaxonH oh my word, I got the Portal Companion Collection a few months back and fell in love with the games! I have been researching all the lore since then haha, and yes, I am now among those who proudly show up to every game show with a "Portal 3 When?" comment ready to go!

@JaxonH wow! that seems like the ultimate list of recommendations for NSW1&2

I'm still quite new in this forum and I have not had enough time to read many pages of this thread, but your summary is definitely the perfect info to start.

Alright. I haven't gamed much since 2015. Got some catching up to do.
Should I get Zelda: Breath of the Wild or Metroid Prime Remastered first? Please tell why. Preferably from people who played both. Also, is the Link's Awakening remake worth it when I already played the GBC version? Thank you in advance.

@Redeemed_Knux Did you play the original Metroid Prime 1? If so it depends on if you want nostalgia. But if you really want to 'catch up', BotW seems more fitting since it is fully a post-2015 game.

@Redeemed_Knux Breath of the Wild is is kind of revolutionary. Nintendo really massaged the heck out of BOTW's production. It's really impressive. You want to play this.

I played Metriod Prime 1 on game cube back in the day. I haven't had much desire to play remastered Metroid Prime 1 on switch, but that's just my opinion. Edit: ...but understandable if you're just in the mode to play something you already know.

So I was thinking of picking up Dragon Quest HD-2D 1&2 for the Switch but I have read that I should start with 3 first. While I like to play games in order of release people have said the in the HD-2D remake of 1 and 2 there are parts that reference 3 so that's where I should start. I havent played 3 yet so should Instart with 3? Also how does it run on a Switch? I have the OLED Switch and wont be upgrading to Switch 2 anytime soon. I do also have access to a Series X and PC and wondering if I should buy it there instead. Any thoughts?

@Tasuki Are you buying physical or digital? The bundle of all 3 is $20 cheaper digitally. Although... DQ 3 HD is on a $20 sale right now so same difference I suppose.

@NintendoByNature It runs pretty well on Switch 2. Better than on Switch 1.

Thank you to everyone for helping me earlier. I got Breath of the Wild. Torn between three games now. They are Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered Collection, Captain Toad, and Skyward Sword. Please recommend me the games from best to worst. I have played and beaten Captain Toad and Skyward Sword like 10 or more years ago. Enjoyed both of them. Willing to play them again. Try to play Tomb Raider but stopped but thanks to the new controls and better graphics I'm willing to try it again.

How is Echos of Wisdom? I dont hear to many talk about that game. Its on sale right now and I have always enjoyed the top down Zeldas more. Is this a pretty solid game in the Zelda series?

@Tasuki I loved it and I wasn’t even sold on it when it was shown. If you can get past the more slower combat style since you’re picking your weapons before you use them, it’s an easy recommendation. The puzzles are top notch and so are the dungeons imo. You’re also going through Alttp world map with some minor changes in specific zones. Lots of call backs to the map in Alttp though.

@NintendoByNature I didnt realize it was a call back to ALttP. Definitely more interested in it now since that's my favorite Zelda game. Thanks for the info will be picking it up this evening after work.
