You guys never run out of Link reaction faces 😅

I wish all his soundtracks were available for streaming

@neufel @Tharsman yeah, what better way to have the look and feel of the authentic thing, than using the shell and buttons of the real thing.

This also can give new life to an old broken controller, it’s pretty cool.

Edit: there. Preordered. It’s coming directly from China so I probably won’t see it in like a year, but it’ll be worth the wait since, evidently, Nintendo doesn’t want me to have one of their wireless N64 controllers, and the last imitation controller I got was really bad.

Oooh I actually have an old controller with broken joystick, so I’m definitely interested in this.

Party like it’s 2008

Or at least that’s what comes to mind when I see that mask.

Guess they do say a picture is worth more than a thousand words

@Ryu_Niiyama I do really like how many places have sources or equivalent spots in the depths.

A really cool detail is how all the hot springs in Hebra have volcanic activity underneath.

It’s a little weird how they completely tore down the Shrine of Resurrection. It felt almost slightly disrespectful, with it being such an important place in Breath of the Wild.

Unless it was the new inhabitants who did it, in which case, point taken.

I remember Harvest Moon Seeds of Memories being announced for WiiU, but I don’t think it ever actually came out. I still rated it though, because I have it for mobile, but perhaps you could consider removing it….?

I like the american one but the quote ruins it for me

Huh the previous Switch game had only one map, not three!

@Wild_Silvally_Dreams well this is a blast from the past! Glad you also enjoyed these games. My favorites would have to be shark and penguins. The horses one also had fun mini games.

@Anti-Matter @ComfyAko the girls in the backgrounds of the pictures look very much like updated interpretations of female main characters from previous games as well (Sara, Claire, and Holly), so these are likely just all examples of player characters.

The person brushing the cow is a little hard to make out, but I think I see them wearing a hat and blue overalls, so it might be supposed to look like Pete?

I’ll keep an eye on that single player one

@Burning_Spear To be fair this cow design has been around since their first non-marvelous HM game. It was honestly about time they made a game-accurate cow plushie.

I love these plushies. I'll try to get this one.

She does the same remark about freedom when you talk to her wearing the Yiga Clan uniform. Except she also says it’s in poor taste.

Ah yes, the iconic duo, Umbreon and Leafeon. Can’t have one without the other.

@Bret now now let's not assume. They perhaps had to write a letter.

I wish they would remove the Miiverse icon in one of these updates…

@TeaCatherine it's just a tiny house with a hole in a corner. where a ghostly hand resides, so we could say it's supposed to be an outhouse. However nothing in the game really designates it as such.

@Scooby-Doo and debatably in Oracle of Ages, too.

I think it still takes place after Skyward Sword. The original Zelda from that never really showed interest in starting a kingdom, so it wasn’t until her descendant Sonia married Rauru that they founded Hyrule.

So that puts the ancient history in this game somewhere between SS and Minish Cap... Probably closer to SS though.

And of course, that would mean there were always two Master Swords going around at the same time for millennia.

@marsbitrona it’s not so rare when you consider Age of Calamity has canon elements, and was made in close partnership with the Zelda team. Of course they would want to keep the character designs consistent.

The Age of Calamity design was based on a concept art of Purah they made for BotW, too.

The red glasses have always been there.

For those curious about how long it’s been since BotW, her diary says she aged herself up artificially so her present looks are not a good way to judge it. The time skip was probably about 5 years tops, given the existence of a certain child.

@Tyranexx in my very first interaction with him, he let the sign fall on Epona, who then proceeded to kick me off her back.

@OFFICIALMichi to be fair, there's some games in the series that imply Pokemon don't just come out to everyone, only to those they find worthy, and our characters just happen to be so good and pure that every Pokemon wants to join us.

We must support and protect Addison at all costs.

Even if it means surrounding him with boulders.

@OFFICIALMichi duh, the other evil teams, of course

Meanwhile I just glue one log to another to make longer log

I misread that as handsome

@Aerona @Greatluigi @Joeynator3000 yeah in Let’s Go using it actually starts a cutscene, it doesn't let you fail.

It wouldn’t be surprised if they do that here too.

What can I say, we like fun movies.

But, Madre mía, that’s a lot of people going to the cinema.

So what you’re saying is now I have to complete that dlc

@rjejr due to the way terrain is generated, you may already notice how existing caves in BotW seem more tacked on to the world instead of being part of it. I can definitely see how building an extensive underground system would’ve been difficult to to accomplish in time.

I’ve had it on preorder for at least two years now

I was on a Game and Watch kick a little while ago, I really wish I had a few actual real G&W units.

A new collection would be nice, or another entry in their new “color screen” series too. The Zelda model is actually my favorite way to play TLoZ, though I’m not sure there’s any other NES games that I would want to buy a specific handheld device for.

But what I truly want, is re-releases of the original hardware.

Haha I love these, glad to see someone else talk about them

@Cashews they could also give him a funny accent!

@Themagusx1 huh. This would be a weird counterpoint to that, since technically that would make any and every piece of media that has been dubbed to different languages “diverse”.

Like, it’s a given fact that movies dubbed to different languages will be dubbed using different people.

As a bit of a contradicting fun fact, for The Lorax, Danny DeVito voiced his character in Spanish too (and a few other languages as well!). He did it without being a fluent speaker by reading phonetical translations, which gives him a fairly unique sound.

Cool concept. They should make a movie franchise out of it.

@Serpenterror huh and what did the luigi voice actor say that needs shutting up?

@Rayquaza2510 yeah the pricing is weird. With FS20 at least you could say it’s because it’s also a retail release, but I haven’t been able to find any physical preorders available for this version.

On the flip side though, based on my own experience with both versions of FS20, the game on the Switch seems better optimized. On iOS, it feels like my fairly up-to-date iphone and ipad skip frames even on the lowest settings, while the Switch plays it with no hiccups at all.

It looks like a good improvement over the last one

Funny enough, about 20 years ago, Pokemon ruined my Gameshark

Made it blow up by battling Professor Oak

Best power: Urbosa
Best personality: Daruk
Best music: Revali
Best divine beast: Mipha

Oh that’s a shame, his work while at Nintendo was quite iconic. Here’s hoping he continues doing well.

Batman looks like they forced him to pose for the picture

It’s one of those rare NES games that still hold up fairly well, and can be enjoyed as games on their own right.

That said, I don’t think a remake would be able to get far enough into development without becoming a new game midway through. It’s just so, huh, basic that any attempt to modernize it will change too much.

is it yellow and white, or blue and black
