@LightSpirit Wholeheartedly agree !!! I played the crap out of this game in 2020 and into 2021. Would be interesting to see if a Switch 2 cart would have the DLC though. Although I think I already know the answer to that lol.
I haven't come across the save data items so I must be missing something. Had a helluva time to get the audio to work correctly in docked mode. .... Also where is the Mineru amiibo ???
@Gaymer90 How much of the attach rate is due to the bundle - especially with the essentially $ 30 discount on the game ? I bought one bundle console for a friend and one basic console for myself. I'm not an MK fan in general and have no interest in playing the game. Don't forget, when the OG Switch launched, there was a better than 1:1 attach rate for BotW because people bought the game at launch who could not buy the console.
@Johnny44 Ohhh I didn't know there was such a thing. The original Dallas pre-dates the original DK in the arcades. And I think the original Dynasty came out around the time of the original DK. ... So there's my age !!! LOL
Ugh ... Nintendo reverting back to sidekick characters .... no thanks. Was not a fan of the Direct ... showing my age but the the visuals were overwhelming and the narrator was annoyingly over the top.
Oh and btw ... you can reset most of what you find on Zelda Notes .. if, God forbid .. you delete your save data when you start a new game. Although I don't think it resets the Voice Memories or the My Play Data.
What is it with the truly bitter comments ? If you don't like it, don't use it. Otherwise get a grip, people !!! ... Having played through both games without a guide, I think it will be useful with replays to speed things up a bit. Zelda has never truly been a collect-a-thon - and the items you get for being a completionist are rather disappointing ( not only the Koroks, but the depths towers and Addison's and Koltin's rewards ). But Zelda Notes is very useful if you want to pursue them. The question is I have for Nintendo is ... now that they have given this to us ... how long will it be before they take it away ?
It will have to do until a Switch 2 version of the grip case they had for the OG Switch was released. That was awesome. They did not update it for the OLED so I do not have my hopes up. Satisfye is good but I prefer first party or other official accessories.
The Hori case is the best !!! Just bought two new ones for my potential Switch 2 games ... although that was before I was aware what game key cards were.
The game looks and runs incredible !!! ... Zelda Notes is alright although I use a tablet instead of my phone for the bigger screen. .... Gonna miss my easy dupe glitches from 1.1.1 version though. LOL
@Ryu_Niiyama Update ... I just happened to browse the Nintendo Online Shop again today ... and lo and behold I was able to order a GameCube controller AND an extra dock without having to need an invitation.
@Ryu_Niiyama Would have been nice to receive actual notice from Nintendo. Instead all I have received are offers for downloadable wallpapers for having played Mario Wonder, Echoes of Wisdom and Tears of the Kingdom. Who else but Nintendo comes up with this kind of garbage ?
And of course it's listed as being Sold Out on the US Nintendo Shop Online ... having previously been listed as ''Invite Only'' ... for which I am still waiting for my invitation.
My preorder arrived from Walmart early this morning before I had to leave for work. Well at least part of the preorder. The console and the pro controller arrived this morning. The other accessories and the amiibo I ordered will arrive tomorrow. The two items I received this morning were also each accompanied by a promotional walmart gift bag with a can of Pringles and a bottle of orange cream coca cola.
I will just have to remember the good time I had with the handheld game. I am not forking over a dime for a game key card. Which means unfortunately I will likely never play any SquareEnix games on Switch 2 - including Final Fantasy VII Remake - as it appears none of the pending SE releases for the Switch 2 are actual game cartridges. Alas. it was too good to be true to have SE games on carts on 2. And it will likely apply to any Kingdom Hearts which of course had the lame cloud version releases on 1.
SquareEnix is all in on the game key cards - even for their smaller games. I suspect they will re-release the Kingdom Hearts games for Switch 2 as game key cards as well - and probably at 80 bucks a pop.

Re: Japanese Charts: Switch 2 Storms Past 1.5 Million Units Sold
85 % attach rate for MKW. What was the ratio of bundle to basic consoles ? .. 60 bundle / 40 basic ? 75 / 25 ? 80 / 20 ? Just curious.
Re: Donkey Kong & Pauline Amiibo Is Now Up For Pre-Order From Nintendo (UK)
