Does anyone know if the Wii U pre-load is live and if Amazon is sending out pre-purchase codes if you buy through them?
 
One of my few problems with Skyward was no snow. It wasn't really a problem with the game, but a snow environment I think could have added even more variety to the game especially with that art style.

Needless to say, I'll be spending a lot of time in the snow region. A lot. Hopefully there's some really fantastic atmospheric music for it too. Snowpeak in Twilight Princess was incredible.
 
Anyone wanna do the same for the Famitsu cover?

Downfall timeline confirmed :p

Nah. Snowhead is GOAT snow region. ;)
 
I've never played a Zelda game before but I do like adventure games and RPGs. Will Breath of the Wild be a good Zelda starting point?

Yeah, it's beginer friendly. You're not forced to face a situation if it's too hard. It has a nice learning curve where you learn from your mistakes but isn't punishing. Just don't expect it to explain you everything like snowboarding with shield.

Seriously. That northwestern snowy region is the one l'm most hyped for, especially as we've seen almost nothing of it. lmagine if you stumble across the fucking Yeti and start racing him on your shield...
 
Really sweet dedication to Gabe. That article was devastating to read.

I'm so glad he got to play it, even if he didn't make it to today.


I wonder if there'll be any NPCs with his name.
 
Man I wasn't following the game too much but my hype went to midnight release levels as the reviews started dropping. Another Ocarina of Time level game forever enshrined in gaming legend?

I cannot miss this.
 
Bookmarking this epic thread until I beat the game because I suppose there are spoilers here, or will be in the next few days... :D

My Switch and game and accessories and Amiibos and Guide are on the way.... just a few more hours.... ^______^ I feel like a 10yo boy again...
 
From that Zelda day 0 patch thread:


It was teetering between a 9.5 and 10, but with the latest update that went live this morning much of the frame drops have been fixed. That was really my one main complaint.

This really needs to be either confirmed or debunked.

I can't even feel cautiously optimistic about the frame rate being improved, not yet anyway.

Hopefully both versions get a patch that improves the frame rate. So far, it sounds like Switch handheld mode is the smoothest?
 
So whats the word on amiibo stocking, will they have a problem selling out quickly or can i wait a couple days to get the guardian amiibo
 
New art from the Japanese Zelda twitter to tide you guys over

IT NEVER FUCKING STOPS

I've changed my background and lock screen on Windows 10 and mobile like 12 times today

Nah. Snowhead is GOAT snow region. ;)

Yeah, I liked that too! I like snow places in most games. When I got to the first snow level in Mario 3D World it was like hopping in a time machine back to my youth.
 
Has anyone mentioned if there are weapons in the game that don't break? I know how I am and I will hoard whatever cool weapon I find for fear of it breaking.
 
The next 4 and a half hours are gonna be excruciating.

On the bright side, when I went to reserve my place in line at GameStop, they had an extra Switch Pro controller for reserve, so I won't have to play this game with Joy Cons.

Ahaha, I might have to do this too.

I would've liked it to be a little higher resolution though. I'll have to see how it looks.
 
Anyone know who has received their copy of Zelda BOTW Switch/Wii U if there's a booklet included in the case? my switch case for the game just had the cartridge nothing else despite having slots to hold a booklet.
 
Not a fan of how the theme (which sounds great) is overlayed with what sounds like someone slamming their fingers on a piano randomly. Sounds pretty bad actually.

Yeah, it sounds kinda messy, but also kind of... abstract? I'll have to get back to this when I hear it in context. Fortunately most of the soundtrack is fantastic.

I definitely prefer the main theme over this but I still really like what they are going for with this version of it. Sounds weird as hell. I love Avant Garde sounding shit and I guess that's the vibe I get with this version, but that's just me. I can totally see why people wouldn't be digging this version too much.
