He's finally back to kick some tail!

I have it but have almost no use for it. The only reason I got it was because I was needing to repair my Switch and wanted my save files on the cloud. When it runs out I won't renew it.

What about Doshin the giant?

Why new ideas or sequels when we could have more Wii U on the Switch?

I think this is the best diverse list of RPGs but maybe not the list of best RPGs. Are they all great and unique, yes. Are they the best... That's a hard argument to make if you have Mystic Quest but not FFlII/6. Are they all the best in their subcategory, probably.

Either way I'm glad to see this here and I look forward to the next write up!

They should definitely be 18+

It is the best Zelda. By far the best story in a Zelda game. The best antagonist, the best items, the best music. Of course there are a few complaints I have but the goods far outweigh the bads.

What about old hacked save files?

I noticed you don't have Ocarina of time Master Quest.

How do I get in on the Beta?

I think you mean unironically celebrate...

@1ofUs I hope they do!

@stuN_zeeD_kiL thanks! I'd probably love the rpg, if it was in english. Oh well.

At this point I only care about the new Amiibos.

REKT and #racedierun are pretty good. Though Rekt is way better. Very similar to Rush 2049 stunt mode.

Why dust off what is already used daily? I can't really until Wii U gets Mario 3D, mariokart 8, BOTW and all those other great Switch exclusives!

I love Robotech the anime but unfortunately I don't think I've ever played a good Robotech videogame.

No Skyward Sword means trash list. I think most people didn't get into it because it was at the end of the Wii's cycle we opposed to the beginning. I think the reason botw is so highly rated is for the opposite reason. Though there are short fallings it has far and away the best story of any Zelda game. BOTW has just about the worst. There's also obvious short fallings of Wind Waker, though obviously a good game, that people seem to ignore these days.

Joy cons sold out everywhere. I love bots!

They have 4 reds and none of them are my favorite red!

Better than Breath of the Wild. I said it. Also I remember other journalist saying "if I played this more I would have given it game of the year instead of zelda". Glad it's getting the recognition it deserves.

Whether can I pre order the joycons in the US? I don't really care about pre ordering the game.

Umm triangle strategy demo?

Ghirahim is one of the best Zelda villains. I think it is great that he borders on disturbing and I always appreciate it when they push the envelope with villains in Zelda. That's one of my many complaints of BOTW actually. No memorable villains.

@Sahnec I'd rather play it at 4k which we can now that I have a 4k TV than use an analog stick to swing the sword. But yeah even though it's probably my favorite Zelda game, the motion controls weren't my favorite.

But yeah you're right, streaming quality is always sub par. Even non-live streaming like Netflix compared to 4k bluray.

I mean, I'm excited about the amiibo but their is no way I am buying this game again. I dumped it and emulated and to be honest, it looked better. My wife even asked when we saw the trailer "didn't the Wii version look better". I had to remind her we emulated it at 2k.

This is my favorite Zelda game! But... I'm more excited about the controllers because I've already played through the game twice and don't want to drop money on something I already have.

But also me and the people I know don't have the kind of money @TurtleTurtle has. So yeah, if money isn't a question I would probably recommend a Switch.

Yeah I have it on Wii U... so no. Just like practically all the other Wii U ports, I already own them. Unfortunately that means my Switch doesn't get too much action. I've just started playing Mario Kart 8 again. Actually I still just recommend people buy a used Wii U instead of a Switch if they don't have either yet. Because for the price of a new Switch you can get a Wii U with all the Switch ports, plus many games that are yet to be ported. Recently I saw a Wii U with 13 games including MK8 and Super Mario 3D world, and 4 extra controllers for €150. And if you don't have either yet you're probably not thaaaat into needing the newest thing out there.

I'd much rather have a Tron movie or series or game or new Daft Punk album. But Tron is Tron I'm excited for anything I can get

Switch Pro Confirmed.

Yes I preferred the variety of the first Hyrule warriors, but the story in this game and it's more focused connection to a single game made it ever so slightly more enjoyable to me. Personally I hate DLC as it is almost always 1/10 of the gameplay for 1/3 of the price so I probably won't buy it. But I'll definitely be looking for it because you never know, and the main game is quite good. My wife thinks the story is better than BOTW and honestly I'd trend to agree. The lack of story in BOTW was my main turn off.

Since I enjoyed, especially the humor of, the Skylanders games this nail in the coffin is kind of sad. Were the toys overly expensive, did they abuse their system by making previous toys les powerful, did the games get incrementally worse after the second installment... Yes. But I enjoyed them all the same, and got all the toys on deep discount.

Probably everyone that played games back when they were standard misses them. It's frustrating when you play a bit more complicated game and have to search online for hope to do things that would have previous been at your finger tips, much more easily found, in instruction manuals.

Anyone care to write out the list?

Anyone else think the joycon straps look like they have little gold coins on them?

@Clyde_Radcliffe Yeah it's great! Unfortunately I never would have found it if it wasn't discount.

Also I picked up conduct together for pretty cheap and ended up moving it. Also Rekt was pretty great to play with my family. Unfortunately the other 15 or so games I got for cheap or free were basically a waste of time. At this point there's enough games worth my time that I'll shell out the money for them.

If there's anything I learned this past year it is to trust big business and not complain.

So in theory with digital sales the numbers could be way higher! Why don't we know digital sales of AC but we know them for seemingly every other game on the list?

How much bad news do you think your readers can take in one day?!

@AndyC_MK84 yes where one person with the gamepad was the ghost and the others tried to catch the ghost. But yeah I recently played them all and the out of I believe 12 games only 2 or 3 were bad for me.

@AndyC_MK84 So then the PC is the best place to game in your opinion because it has essentially an infinite catalog?

Definitely agree with what you said to killer Bob

@AndyC_MK84 yeah f zero was bad, but Zelda, Metroid, Luigi's Mansion, and others used the gamepad exceptionally. Many are still a blast if you get a group of 3-5 people together.

@AndyC_MK84 I didn't say they haven't put out any new games on switch. I only said that the majority of the games on switch are Wii U ports. Mariokart, Pikmim 3, Super Mario Bros U, Zelda Breath of the Wild (which they took away gamepad functionality so that it would be the same on switch), Captain toad as you mentioned. Mario Maker 2 though technically not a port is clearly a port because it still has the exact same glitches from Mario Maker. But like most of the ports they added some new functionality of levels and took away some as well, as is the case of Captain Toad and others.

@AndyC_MK84 Nintendoland, Batman Arkham, Assassin's Creed, Xenoblade, Skylanders, Mario kart, Call of Duty... Honestly it's harder for me to think of games that didn't have extra futures with the gamepad than games that didn't. But you're right that some didn't use the feature.

As far as social interactions I guess it depended on having friends that also had a Wii U... But at it's release you could even comment on sports games while watching TV and the gamepad would show you where each shot was attempted in basketball at least.

@AndyC_MK84 Yes removal of the DLC and even the game for a time was ridiculous. My only hope is that they were preventing unknowing parents from getting it for their kids on the wrong console around release date on the switch.

@AndyC_MK84 Most every Nintendo released Switch game is a Wii U port... Even 3 years later. The Wii U had the virtual console and full Wii functionality. Most other games are ports available on PC at a lower price. If you only care about the number of games available you should just stick to PC gaming. If you want to play Nintendo games the Wii U is the system with the most Nintendo games available. Your argument doesn't seem to hold up when you think about it.

@Bret I think it's the best Nintendo system by far. It has better social interactions, better functionality with the gamepad, better user interface (though load times were admittedly atrocious), better backwards compatibility. Anyways in many areas the Wii U was the best Nintendo has put out. Unfortunately it also had the worst marketing of any Nintendo system. I actually own every Nintendo system, including virtual boy, and the Wii U is the only system I own two of... Because I moved overseas and got one that was compatible with the region I moved to.

As are most things with the Wii U... This was the best way to use Netflix. You could brows movies with the gamepad or if you needed to leave the room, say go to the kitchen or bathroom, you could take your movie with you.
