I have been finding this as well. I havent taken my switch on the bus to work in a while, its slightly too big, while the gba sp slips in and out of my pocket, doesnt need me to do a wide arm grip and can packed into 10 min levels. I do love it. I have gone for the 3ds recently, but it depends on what games I have on the go and when. Flights and longer trips, switch, short trips to work.. gba! Especially with a modded screen....
I have recently replayed Link to the past and Minish Cap. I have also finally completed Wind Waker after 20 years ( I really thought I got further as a kid). Currently working through oracle of ages, before I dive back into Skyward Sword or Link between worlds(*edit)... I also really want to replay the DS titles... Goddam I just want to play Zelda all the time. So excited for Tears of the Kingdom
@somebread holy moly, that’s so on the nose they must have been pissed off! Hopefully the patch sorts it all out… I won’t be starting it till a patch comes!
@BlackenedHalo fair play, do they interlink at all? I don’t have loads of time to play games anymore so that’s my reasoning for potentially starting with IV or VI
I haven’t really played final fantasy before, im guessing this is the best place for me to start? I was planning on playing 4 or 6 on my gba via ever drive but might do this instead. Any advice from anyone?
Haven’t played COD since the Wii days - which was great fun with the point and shoot controls. I don’t really care for multiplayer but if there was a game with a good single player story… I’d be tempted to dive in again!
I name my team, none of the others. I always have a Batman (Crobat) in my team, or Flame Boy (the fire starter), sometimes a Fatman (Snorlax)... my names arent great, but I like them.
@abbyhitter thats just journalism though, im enjoying the hype! Ive enjoyed looking for leaks, the constant conversation around the new games... its all part of the fun!
A link to the past brought me in, Minish Cap cemented my love, Wind Waker opened my eyes to the 3d console games... I would start my future child with A link to the past, it has everything!
Hi Instagram post gave more insight into his first game being blue then yellow, then his fav game being Silver and still playing it on tour, which resonates with me HARD - that is my childhood too <3
Love this game. My personal favourite mainly due to nostalgia. I remember replaying at finally completing it at uni and reawakening the love. The completing it again on switch. Pure joy but man did I suck as a kid haha!
Can confirm, with a little messing around with the gyro controls sensitivity and turning off that dude shouting RELOAD, the gun was great fun to play with! Not as good as the one with Overkill... but still, fun!
My switch was running out of battery super fast, I followed these instructions years ago and it sorted it out. It must have just got used to how long I would play it undocked before charging again. All good now!
Will see how the gyro aiming holds up. There needs to be a switch zapper / gun holder thing to make this a pure experience. Overkill on wii was just GOLD. I loved it so much, I want that experience again!
Have the leaks caused anyone else to actually preorder the game? I was a bit worried it was going to be a bit sparse and then saw more info and was like yeah lets go...
Haven't played in a long time, but looks alot of fun. Im too old and slow to play with the younglings. Ill stick to my single player games for max 15 mins a day haha
I've completed it on Normal and again on Hardmode - DLC included. Im still on around 35% on both goes - mental! I did think about doing all the koroks then I... did other stuff instead. Its a slow process. I love this game.
