I don't need more reasons to be bitter I don't have a Switch.

The switch is the best console we've had in decades. Not the most powerful or best selling, but innovative and genuinely fun to use.

Like...woah.

The Spanish Inquisition was more expected than this.

As a person who knows only superficial things about CotND and Zelda, this seems like a neat idea. And no doubt the title is great!

BatmansUnderPantsAreSoSoft
I'm waiting for a hardware upgrade that they usually end up doing
IMTHEONEWHOSTOLEALLOFTHECOOKIESFROMTHECOOKIEJAR
Nintendo doesn't typically do hardware upgrades.
https://www.wsj.com/articles/nintendo-to-launch-two-new-switch-models-11553494773
Yes they do.
They don't? Isn't the New 3DS (and New 2DS) a hardware upgrade over the originals? Some games run better on them compared to the old ones.
BisAndThighHighs
Yes, there's a couple of exclusive games too that only work on the New consoles. They also did DS to DSi, which also had enhanced games.
3nd3rwiggin
Soon as I take care of some other things I will be getting a switch.
Wait till they inevitably upgrade the hardware like they always do

Topples
Her name is Cadence from Crypt of the NecroDancer.
That's outside of the legend of Zelda games right?
Correct.

I've always bought the new consoles but never played a Zelda game with much interest. BOTW sold me though. Amazing game.
ASDFFDSAASDFASDF
wouldnt expect the others to be particularly similar. botw was only technically a zelda game really. trivially reskinned into something else
should have said nominally, better fit than technically for what i meant
with absolutely none of the gameplay features
i really really hope botw doesn't ruin the franchise by making all future zelda games something completely different :(
Nintendo had made it clear they are trying to break into the PC crowd. With Zelda being so important for them, I'm sure they'll be cautious.
No... way different. The look and the feel and function. I've played others. This is night and day in terms of ability and functionality.
Xenarion
You joking right?
there were like 3 total zelda elements and none of them were necessary or particularly central.
call gannon "the miasma" rename zelda asuna and let the player fill in link's name, and change the koroks to moogles. totally different game
suddenly it's final fantasy going in a fresh new direction instead. complete with potential phone app integration. brought to you by ubisoft
TheGlow
On the inverse Ive hated all zeldas after snes. im forcing my self to play botw. 3 beasts down, still struggling to stay awake.
joeharri
Have you tried Link Between Worlds for 3ds? Very much in the style of LTTP. Only complaint, it's fairly easy but good story.
I started in an hour or so and was just bored of it. Theres no progression really, find hearts. thats it. I like Bloodborne/darksouls now
The quests in BOTW is the real draw as is all the gear and ability to cook food. Once you get a horse it makes the game more fun.
The quests have been highly lackluster and with so much verticality in the game I found horses worthless. Cooking is a time sink.
ILogInToUpvote
The biggest news is that Nintendo actually licensed their most iconic IP to an indy developer. That's huge.
dangerousDoc
This is the first time they have done so and they are trying to see the response
Askingforafriend37
I mean, I’m pretty sure Mario is their most Iconic, and I imagine Pokémon is more iconic than Zelda, especially after PoGos success in 2016z
IJudgeYourFavourites
Third most but yeah
TheMemeForge
Mario and rabbids kingdom battle?
That was Ubisoft. I said Indy. It's huge to license to a largely unproven indy developer.
HiddenSanity
Ooooh, someone arguing 'Most Iconic' with Waluigi or w/e in 3...2...1...
delmania
The Sony Cdi games are attempting to wave to you but I’m blocking them.
Gamerbelower
My optimism says they'll do it again my realism is that they will probably give out their IP's to more mobile devs for cash grabs.
Tesseract09
There will still want switch exclusives to encourage platform adoption. Supporting mobile could be a risk to their hardware.
They've expressed further interest in going deeper into the mobile market.
CeIebrity
Yea Zelda is more iconic than Mario /s
ChibiYui
LoZ > Mario
Hutchy01
I mean it's not unprecedented them licensing Zelda to a third party. It just went horrifically badly last time.
oneofthecalled
Well, X queues me, Princess.
buddyicon
Soul Caliber II?
Isorikk
Oracle of Ages and Seasons were amazing tho
They've always licensed to other large developers. Never a tiny indy (that I'm aware of)
GCRust
Horrifically badly is in the eye of the beholder. Were they bad games? Yes. But for the Philips CD-I they were the best on that platform!
Leodivinci
The shiniest of turds is still a turd
And I'm not disagreeing. I'm just saying for the system they were released on? They were pretty high quality.
ImHereToExplainTheJoke
That’s like saying it’s the least hot piece of lava in a volcano.
But in this case, it's the least hot piece of lava in a volcano. People forget there were three Zelda games for the CD-I. There's a reason.
No? Hyrule warriors, Minish Cap, the oracle games, Soul Calibur... it’s gone well plenty of times. In fact third party Zeldas have all been-
Well, X queues me, Princess!
Yotengo
The oracle games were amazing
Straga27
The minish cap wasn't a first party game? It was great
Nykidemus
I was pretty sure he was talking about Hyrule Warriors.
Great after the CDI mistakes.
Goldcart
To be fair, that was less “third-party,” more “bad-breakup.”
YOURFRIEND2010
Where do people get this from? Capcom made oracle or ages/seasons + minish cap and they were amazing
DanniLuxgarbe
The Oracle Duo was meant as a 'quick! Knock something together to get a handle on this' and recycles assets from LA. Still awesome.
takhat
It's quite a jump from capcom to indie
I think they were thinking about phillips cd... and oof
I did not realize minish cap was capcom. It was real good.
talanthalas11
Yeah, but they're almost forgotten when you think of 3rd party Zelda. Most people think Wand of Gamelon, etc...
gauntletw
which time do you think was the last time?

I mean that wasn’t the last time, they licensed to capcom more recently and they did ok
Huh, I just googled it, I didn't know Capcom did Oracle of Seasons, Oracle of Ages, Four Swords, and The Minish Cap.

Is Capcom an indie studio, though, is the point I think
