the delay of totk was so gross when you see the final product. i could play botw from zero a lot of times and still feel special, totk feel soulless and lazy, the story is lazy, well the game is lazy, 4 dungeons, the same history involving the 4 races, shrines again?
This most be the worst upgrade to a main line series. And the fact this and the galaxy pack were the biggest game announcement for the 40th anniversary... Honestly idk what nintendo is doing, but the switch 2 is closing their 1st year with nothing impacful or iconic as it was switch 1st year.
It's so dumb to release a new console with no system seller. No Mario 3D, No Zelda? No even a hint. It's kinda pathetic what the are doing with Wonder with that expansion, there's no hype, nobody asked for that.
Oh god, Nintendo Life keeps falling down with bad articles, weird clickbaits and ragebaits, what happened? The only point I see from something like this being published is 100% ragebaiting for more ad revenue which is the lowest point a website can go. Be better, you were better.
Looks like a good game, but MK isn't a title that would make me buy a new console, and the new DK is too new conceptually to use nostalgia as trigger. I'll wait.
Some people are missing the detail that this is not the default way to sale games, cartridge with full games still exists. It's just a replace for download cards with codes. Also, the games which would use this will have the information in the cover.
The price discourse it's the most entitled stuff going on later, seems like xbox and sony fanbots have been trying to stir the pot in social media pushing a lot of anti nintendo narratives. Just a little reminder, gaming it's not a right so you are not entitled to anything.
@JohnnyMind If big and old Nintendo IPs keep going strong to this day it's because of how they take care of them, so keep going nintendo, also that's why other franchises like sonic become a joke.
What's the news? Almost every single japanese digital store work like that. Music, movie, streaming, all work the same way. Some digital stores are even more extreme and require connection from inside Japan to even open their page.
I think the lack of hype in 2024 games it's because people, the industry, everyone it's expecting console new, not more games. It's been like 7 years already.
Sony put a lot of money tonight it seems, or just a little something for the exclusive cutscenes tonight. The game even wasn't the most sold from the list, what a fraud lol Sony paying a lot to trying to look relevant and successful.

Re: Talking Point: Age Of Imprisonment Could Inspire Next Zelda Game, Say Devs, But What Does That Mean?
No more shrines, the same 4 tribes quest, tokt was really lazy in recycling stuff from botw, the depths were a waste, and the island were a big flop.
