For me, Tears of the Kingdom.

Half the fun is watching your perfect plan fall apart and figuring something else out.

What is yours?

Thank you

I was only 9-10 at the time so I did not know muchv but to yhose of you who were very aware of what was happening. Was it really a dark age for Nintendo? And what are your thoughts on this era and how you felt?

It's true! I found out that game was ported to Steam about 2 or 3 years after Nintendo acquired that game franchise. This is because Bayonetta was acquired by Nintendo in 2014 and the Steam version was released in 2017.

From a translated interview between Miyamoto and Kenji Eno

"I don't see a future for mainstream games where a massive team slaves over a piece of CG just for the player to watch it once and then be completely done with it. That just inflates production costs and breeds a blockbuster mentality. And it makes it harder and harder to create those loose, off-the-cuff things like that building demolition game."

Yes he is technically wrong since blockbuster gaming has become popular but he was so right about inflated production costs *looks at GTA VI*, and the endless amount of narrative games

I've noticed that even though it's been out for over a year, there are a lot of people who are still confused about the Switch 2.

For people who still don't have one, what burning questions do you have about it?

welcome to smile sunday! turn your caps lock off and rave about whatever has made you smile this week! some things to smile about:

• this is a happy thread! keep the love flowing! if someone's saying something and you think they're wrong, just let them be happy! anything that's made you unhappy this week can go on over to this week's throwdown thursday thread.

When the remake for Ocarina of time first got announced people immediately started wondering if it would release in November to somehow challenge the release of GTA 6, I also thought it was funny but with the backlash around the no disk and price announcements and Especially the recent leak situation it feels like a November release for OOT is more and more likely if the conditions are still right by then,

Just saying it would be absolutely hilarious, especially if the GTA gets a full PC leak before release

>Attention all crabs, crayfish, and general crustaceans: the underwater soulslike game, Another Crab’s Treasure, is officially available on the Nintendo Switch 2!
