@SteveDaSteve I don’t support Switch piracy either, but older consoles and games are getting overly expensive which is one of the reasons why people emulate and homebrew them in the first place especially if they’re no longer available physically or digitally (3DS and Wii U eshops for digital)
Hope this gets revealed in a Direct soon! I’ve always been interested in playing it but haven’t been able to do so and it looks like something I’d really enjoy
Got mine on Friday and lesson learned that preordering amiibo early is always the right thing to do (I preordered them two days after the Sep Direct and I can’t believe they’ve sold out in like 5 seconds every single time they’re available to order)
When Nintendo randomly dropped the Future Redeemed trailer on a random Tuesday night with the release date being a week later alongside the Pyra/Mythra amiibos getting a release date plus the announcement of the Noah/Mio amiibo. Do the people who write these GOTY articles hate Xenoblade
When I went to go see the Mario Movie with my friends one of them and I we were pointing out the references in the theater, I loved seeing all of the Nintendo nods but I wish they referenced more modern Nintendo games too. I also watched Vinny’s recent stream of the Mario anime movie from 1986 and it was really interesting to see after watching this one
Really glad to see it did so well, it deserves it! Fun fact: while BG3 and TotK are tied on Metacritic, Prime Remastered is the third highest rated game of the year on there. It’s my second favorite I played this year with TotK being first so I guess it shows how much of a good year it was for Nintendo
@Fizza I played Splatoon every month this year and it was my most played for 6 months so that’s literally half the year 😂 Now I understand why people sank so much time into Splatoon 2 way before I got 3
“BotW/TotK are not true Zelda games”
On the other hand for me, I like both the linear and open world styles of Zelda so I don’t mind either of them being the main formula for the series. I put 120+ hours into TotK but I only put 30 into WW and they’re both some of my favorite Zeldas. I wonder if we can see a mix of them in the future?
@graviton Lmao that’s ridiculous. Xenoblade is kind of niche though and they probably thought it was another anime game but I’m glad it’s gotten the love it deserves. Also I’d like to play BG3 someday as it looks really cool but I’ve never touched DND in my life haha
Really glad TotK won something, it totally deserves it! I loved every minute of it and I’m glad I got to play such an amazing game. I’m also planning on playing the rest of the Zelda games I haven’t played because of it. Also to the Spider-Man 2 fans, congratulations as you’re now experiencing the same pain Xenoblade fans felt last year!
I had hope for TotK winning GOTY but I’m still glad it won something since it definitely deserved an award. I haven’t played BG3 but from what I’ve heard about it I’m glad it won! TotK and Prime Remastered both won GOTY in my heart, it was also nice seeing a game I played this year win something after XC3 won nothing last year. Flute guy was awesome too!
Whenever the Zelda movie releases I’m planning on going back and reading these comments including ones elsewhere online to see how well they aged or not (and if they were warning signs)
@FaroreAbhorsen the original Metroid Prime already won a lot of GotY awards when it released 20 years ago so maybe it’s why it isn’t there? It really should be though
@TruthisRare I’m playing WW HD for the first time and I’d love to see it on Switch. It literally has an option to play it in handheld mode, did Nintendo forget about that? I plan on playing TP eventually but I hope it comes to Switch too
Already voted for Tears, hope it sweeps! Sad there isn’t a section for remakes/remasters anymore since I would’ve voted for Prime Remastered. Also when is player’s choice open again?
@the_beaver Fellow Xenoblade fan here, I thought Torna was better than 2 and I’m sorry but I thought FR wasn’t very good compared to the base game. It’s still great but my opinion of it has changed a lot over time
@FawfulsFury What do you mean you didn’t sign up for the Korok space program?! Seriously speaking I didn’t bother finding all of them since there’s so many of them
