Releasing soon, hyped or no?

Sure.

In a few years when the price drops and a better Switch comes out.

Super hyped. Last time I was this hyped for a game was Breath of the Wild.

Nah. Only played Breath of the Wild for maybe 20 minutes and was "bummed" that they turned Zelda into an overcomplicated "modern type" game....

I'm a way bigger fan of the traditional style of zelda where you beat dungeons in order and use the items you acquire to progress thru areas you couldn't before, I liked breath of the wild a lot but I don't love open world games, and when diaper babies complained that all zelda games are the same after skyward sword (they arent) I got kinda soured. I put probably 200 hours intro breath of the wild so not saying I didn't like it, I just got bored of it after a while, defeating the same Lynel enemy a bunch of times. I'm sure I'll get this game at some point but I just don't really care right now, I'm playing another game that's taking up my time

nintendo doesnt do price drops. You could grab a used copy though...

Im going to play this and pretty soon. I'd prefer a traditional dungeon -> field -> dungeon game though. Hell id rather have the wiiu WW/TP ported to the switch.

I think this is what I will do.

I'll wait for the GOTY edition that will launch with the Switch 2 next year.

Still not convinced 2024 is the year. It could be for sure but spring 2025 is where my money is at

Still have to play breath of the wild.

So many games to play.

Hellish.

I lied. Gamestop running a promo where you can get the game for cheap if you trade in 2 games from a pretty long list. Traded in Octopath 1 and Last of Us Remastered. Then the rewards card made the trades worth more and I had a monthly 5 dollar off to use. In the end I paid 12 bucks after tax. How could I not?

Well....my switch loses connection to the dock after 30 seconds in this game. Other games no sweat, just this one bugs out.

Oh well, guess I don't feel bad about bootlegging it for the PC since I did buy it.

I havent seen any reports about that but the game uses a a chip thats only ever been used in splatoon 3 and wii sports for the switch... whatever they titled it... i bet it has something to do with it

Game is pretty good btw

Yea I thought it was the wired controller I bought because my kid lost the pro controller and we cant find it. But nope, wasn't that. Did it with Joycons on the grip thing too. Then I thought maybe the dock was bad, but I have 2 and they both replicate the error. Same with multiple HDMI cords and power sources. Try other games and it works perfectly fine. But put ToTK in there docked and I get 30 seconds max before its black screened. And its still connected to the dock too because it's still charging, you still get sound, controller thats plugged in to dock still functions. Just no video signal. Mad lame.

Runs like a champ with ease on Yuzu though. Way better than Xenoblade 2/3 and SMTV did.

Might do the same.

If you ever intend to play it you may as well. It's unlikely you'll ever see a price like that for it again, and if you do it'll be a long time from now with the way nintendo prices go.

Traded in Smash Ultimate and the New Mario Rabbids; haven't played Smash in years and Mario/Rabbids will quickly be only worth around $20.

Ended up getting the game for under $7.

The 1st rabbids game was good but sparks was trash

Yeah I wasn't as invested as the first one, I kept picking it up like once a week and kept trying to get my bearings on what to do.

It's deals like this that make it clear as day why Gamestop always ends up struggling. Giving us brand new games for 10 dollars because we gave them 2 old games they'll probably never sell lol

The guy at the store said managements aim was to get more sales on the extended warranty.

He didn't even attempt to sell it to us though, lol.

Oh our sales guy pitched it HARD. Said he insisted on everyone buying it and he was adamant. Had to tell him no on like 7 consecutive pitches especially when most of them were outright lies he was telling me because he must have thought I was an idiot.

Extended warranty on the game?

I think it adds another year on the standard warranty in case the game gets damaged, not sure how much it cost but ripoff either way.

Haven't played the second one yet but enjoyed the first game.

The only real issues I had with it was the game starting to feel like a chore to get through during its second half and how the game breaks its rules for combat in the last world and/or second half.

That rules breaking stuff also ended up being the main reason why Ubisoft never bothered to include Donkey Kong and Rabbid Cranky from the DLC expansion pack for the playable characters for the game's multiplayer modes.

This game is overwhelming

I see the complete play through’s on YouTube are 20 hours long.

I’m probably not watching that.

and they are using the term complete very loosely. VERY.

Then just watch this:
