@LillianC14 Give it a try. It's a fantastic game and brilliant to finally have it on Switch. Great graphics, incredibly challenging puzzles and a really intriguing story. What's not to like???
@Alucard83 It's a fantastic mix of puzzle and anime drama. If that's not your thing then fair enough. A lot of people would disagree but that's what's so great about games being available in all flavours.
This looks bland and over produced now. I loved this game on Xbox because of the striking visual style. This looks less like a comic book and strays from the original beauty. Fingers crossed the gameplay still holds up.
@JimmySpades Wow! Bit aggressive to my fairly innocuous comment. Thankfully I don't spend my life reading through all of your previous comments. Although in future I'll make sure I set a reminder to check them just in case I agree with your choices and you still get salty.
@nessisonett You don't have to buy them. Farm the games out to a port specialist so it doesn't hinder Nintendo's new output. Where's the harm??? Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has made Nintendo enormous amounts of cash that helps fund new games and future consoles. It's a win for Switch owners who have never played them. It's a win for Nintendo's bank balance. It's a win for fans who have played the ports because it means tons more money and time for Nintendo to create new IP and new games in existing. Everybody wins surely?
It's a golden age in the sense that we have complete access to every previous generation and therefore gaming in general becomes a richer and more diverse medium with every year that passes. I have amazing memories from the 8-bit generation onwards and still get that same buzz today. NES - buying a copy of Metroid from Boots for £40 with my birthday money. SNES - importing my first Japanese game (Ranma 1/2) but then having to wait a further 4 weeks for the adaptor/convertor to arrive. N64 - playing Super Mario 64 in a kiosk in Beatties with a crowd of other kids trying to work out how to use an analogue stick. GameCube - marvelling at how small the discs were and thinking that graphics would never better than Burnout. Wii - getting an Uncle who had never played a videogame in his life to try Wii Sports and laugh his arse off while challenging me to one more tennis match. Wii U - using the GamePad to scan for security camera in Zombi U felt like the future. Switch - playing a fully fledged, no compromise Zelda game in the palm of my hands. The fact that I have all of these memories and can still enjoy all of these games if I want to is pretty special. Oh and my Famicom GB Micro is the tits.
I had this when I was a kid and didn't get anywhere near completing it. Can't wait to download it to see if I've got better at games as the years have gone by.

@kirbygirl Me too. I played it to death on 360. Got the PS4 version last year and just got my Switch copy today. I love, love, LOVE this game!

Re: Can You Match These Links To The Zelda Game They're From?
Question 3 - I'm really hoping they release 'Majora's Mash 3D' on Switch. Lol. Definitely my favourite potato themed game on N64.
Re: Rumour: A Tomb Raider Collection Might Be On The Way To Nintendo Switch
@Zenszulu , You're right. I have an Atari Jaguar and I adore it. The best version of Rayman is on Atari Jaguar.

@ChromaticDracula As long as it's physical I'm in too.
Re: WayForward Confirms River City Girls Will Be Returning To The Streets
I adore this game. I'm still hoping that Scott Pilgrim Vs The World will be re-released on modern platforms at some point.
