Yeah comparing it to the 86 zelda seems pretty apt
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

It was really Link to the Past that started the modern Zelda formula.

A little bit off topic but I'm traveling through Canada and I'm not sure how the stores work here. Two days ago I entered an EB Games (I think that's the name) because I saw a stand full of Nintendo switch boxes with their price on display. As soon as I entered an employee told me if I was looking for something and I said I wanted a switch. He told they were out of stock here and everywhere. This was the day splatoon released so I thought they would have at least some but oh well it was in a big mall so I assumed they didn't and the boxes were just for display. The next day I went through another EB store but noticed there weren't any switch boxes in display and of course they told me it was out of stock.

Not seeing the boxes got me wondering though...did that first guy lied to me and those were real? How common is to have empty display boxes in Canada?

Having an hour and a half train commuting every day, I'm seriously contemplating buying a Switch (playing Zelda seems a much better use of my time than sleeping :D). Thing is, I kinda got annoyed when I bought my PS4 just to learn a few months later that they were working on the Pro version. Better hardware, more ergonomic controllers, I mean, I see no reason why Nintendo would not do the same... On the other hand, waiting a couple years seems an equally stupid idea... To buy or not to buy, that is the question :D

you get about 3, maybe 3.5 hours of battery life playing zelda

it's more for games that are less demanding. I played that and MK on a long plane ride recently.

I travel about 2.5h by train every day, of which I game around one hour to the full 2.5 hours.. battery only gives a warning when I'm playing at 100% brightness.

Unrelated: how good is Splatoon 2's campaign? Is it worth paying €30 for (I've got some games I can trade in)? I may play the multiplayer occasionally, but it won't be the main reason why I want to get the game.

The only reason for nintendo to build a different version is to check if they can use different hardware that doesn't depend on the same factories as Apple. The reason for switch shortage is that Nintendo is competing with Apple for hardware manufactures.

One interesting thing about Zelda is that the 2 most recent 3d Zeldas are the completly different ones. Skyward Sword is the most railroad and story intensive zelda, the game is pretty much a big dungeon.BotW is the most exploratory one, it even has more freedom than 2d Zeldas like ALBW. And it's dtory is pretty badic and unrelated to other games in the franchise

Alright. Guess I'll just wait for RiME to come out, or the Rayman Legends ultimate edition whenever they plan to release it.

Then again, still having fun with BoTW, 140 hours and counting now. Sure the story is pretty basic, but what sells the game world, at least to me, are the dozens of little vignets of environment-based story telling. As a somewhat seasoned Dark Souls player I can clearly see where they got the mustard from (pun unintended).

I think I've done the first world in Splatoon singleplayer, figured I'd just try online games and haven't done anything else ever since?

The final boss of Splatoon is one of the best executed bosses ever. But the rest of the single players is not that great

I can't get comfortable in Splatoon 2 control wise. The motion controls are weird and the traditional ones seem way sensitive.

Took me 10ish hours to get used to the gyro aiming but now it feels fairly natural, only thing i'm still having a big of trouble with is sharp turns and then readjusting my aim. I have to git gud.
I want to hit S- rank.

I'm sure they were just display boxes. Nintendo sent out a ton of empty Switch boxes back before release for stores to put on display. I'm guessing the manager of the second EB store you visited decided to take theirs down since the Switch has been out for a couple months now.

Good luck on your hunt to find a Switch!

Considering Ganondorf was the only male born in a hundred years to the gerudos do you think he lost his mind because he was literally drowning in pussy? Hard to imagine someone becoming so hateful with that kind of background. Also kudos for not being super effeminate.

Also, after you got the Master sword and did all 4 divine beasts is there any main questish thing left to do? I did all except the big thunder camel and I'm hoping it won't be a straight march to ganon after that because i hear there's not much to do there as well.

Ganondorf/Ganon is the result of a centuries old curse by the Demon King Demise(reincarnated as Ganon/Ganondorf going forward) against the goddess Hylia("Zelda" going forward through bloodline). OOT Ganondorf is killed in Wind Waker during the adult timeline. He's executed after Majora's Mask in the child timeline. He dies in A Link to the Past in the downfall timeline.

You can still seek out the 12 memories in the Sheikah Slate if you want to pursue the true ending. Everything else is non-critical. Do you want the tunic? Do you want the Hylian Shield?

Doesn't mean they all wanted to bang him. A big part of Gerudo culture involved either attracting men from other races or straight up kidnapping them and... alluding to raping them. We know at least Nabooru resented him because their culture made him the leader just for being born. Who knows how many else held the same views.
