@JaxonH Is there anywhere you can get it for relatively cheap? I see the price of that thing online and quiver.

Here's one on eBay from a seller with 98.3% feedback rating and 56 confirmed transactions. Includes the Mew amiibo card. It's $63.55 with free shipping. Used condition but the analog seems white, indicating little to no use. Heavy use usually shows a yellowed analog.

Then again, if you're on a budget you can make due with the joycon. Personally I feel like it's such a unique experience it's worth it, but, I bought it at launch for less, so there's that. And I have a reasonable budget allotted for gaming.

If $60-70 is a lot to spend on enhancing a single game's experience (and keep that in mind, it only works for one game) maybe skip it. Then again, you can always resell it afterward and recoup your initial investment (minus eBay's cut, obviously)

@JaxonH I would love to go for it, but that price, even at used, is a bit too much for me to bare. The game itself will probably be around the same price anyway so I'll just make do with what I have. Thanks for the suggestion though!

@Ninfan Happy birthday! I hope you have a good one. Yeah, it's a pretty decent gift, especially since there's more enticing rewards on My Nintendo now.

I saw an interesting point on Digital Foundry that it seems unlikely that the BotW 2 delay video gameplay footage was actually running on the Switch (24:37 in the video).

More evidence seems to be stacking up in favour of a more powerful Switch within the next year.

All I need is for my current Switch to last a year, then. As long as this more powerful model is a Switch and not something designed to disregard everything the Switch has done (including the ability to run its games). I'm sure it will, though. Nintendo would be silly to just throw everything they've built up away.

Only two things in this universe are truly eternal: entropy and Switch Pro rumors.

Well, anyway, if you're going to launch more powerful hardware, doing so alongside BotW2 is the way to do it. The original moved mad units at launch. Truly one of the all-time great launch titles.

As long as it also has the OLED screen, I'll be preordering. No desire to choose between superior tech and a higher quality screen.

I think a new generation is more likely than a switch pro. Hope the game is backwards compatible tho, it took me six months to just track down an oled.

As much as I don't like to get caught up in Switch Pro rumours, I'll give my two cents...

If a new model was intended to launch with BotW sequel, I suspect Pokemon was baked into that launch as well (all targeting holiday 2022). Is it still possible that we'd get a model revision this year?

It just feels too soon after the OLED (which I'm still absolutely in love with)...

Another possibility is that a revision is planned for next year and BOTW was purposefully delayed to tie in with the revision (and not planned from the get-go).

Crossposting from LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga thread because I feel people need to hear how great this game is.

LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is freaking excellent!

Seriously, I'm blown away by how good this game is. It may be a LEGO game but my goodness, it feels like the Star Wars game I've always wanted. Even more so than Jedi Last Order (which was also great, mind you, but THIS feels like the most definitive Star Wars game of all time).

It's interesting, combat is so much more fun versus prior LEGO games, the skill trees add just enough depth to make it engaging, and exploring the worlds feels like you're experiencing the movies interactively. The LEGO format actually enhances the experience, I'd argue. The levity it brings makes every custscene feel like a treat.

I'm honestly astounded at how good this game is. I've NEVER loved a LEGO game like this... not even remotely.

Just a PSA. AmazonNA has a B3F2 deal going. The cheapest of the three games in your cart is essentially free. Some newer games are in the mix, including Elden Ring.

I've had my eye on the Gear Club Unlimited 2 DE for a while; it's the "all on cartridge" fourth (perhaps fifth?) release of the same game.

It’s to match Target which is currently holding the same sale.

If anyone has ever ordered from Simply Games, may want to check you got a refund. It’s rather sad to see another game retailer go under but it’s going to get a lot worse as physical media disappears.
