I think they're doing the cave where you have to be a wolf that's only in the WiiU version which has an effect on the Midna/Link amiibo to transfer a powered up wolf to Breath of the Wild...so no magic armor.

I thought it was really cool that they brought all the context sensitive moves from WW and put them into TP so you could do them whenever, I think it added a lot to the combat system

I did not like that all the enemies were drooling morons and could never kill you in a million years, rendering the improved combat pointless

Breath of the Wild has gone gold, so they are probably working on the day 1 patch that makes the game work right now.

I saw a cool theory on Reddit that the giant robot guardian animals aren't dungeons themselves, but you have to use them to get to the dungeons.

They all start off kinda berserk so you need to go inside them (the big mechanical dungeon-like sections we saw in the trailer) to fix them, so those could be kinda mini dungeons (but bigger than the shrines); then once you've fixed them they take you to the 4 main dungeons, like the giant turtle does in Majora's Mask.

Camel guardian - Carries you through the huge sandstorm in the desert (which is visible in the trailer)
Lizard guardian - Takes you inside the otherwise impenetrable Death Mountain
Bird guardian - Flies you to the dungeon? Which could be that giant square structure at the top of the map
Elephant guardian - Swims you across to that big isolated island in the bottom right corner of the map

Maps in question:

I'm expecting that they release a new Switch only Zelda game within 18-24 months. Now that they have the game engine and a team experienced making a massive open world game they can easily put a Majora's Mask-like sequel together since all you need are new locations, new characters, new story, and then QA to make sure everything runs smoothly. Plus a BoTW follow-up by the same team with some unique twists would also probably prompt a second wave of mass Switch purchases as people who held off and kept their WiiUs just say gently caress it and buy for the new Zelda. Nintendo really, really needs the Switch to be a runaway success and if sales look weak 1 year in the internet will be full of bloggers proclaiming the death of the Nintendo console for all time.

Or maybe some Switch exclusive DLC, like "Travel to the Island of X and discover the mysterious Sheikah ruins" and you get a new decent sized map to roam in.

Honestly, they should just start a 3D-2D Zelda cycle every year or two on the Switch. I'd love to see what kind of interesting top-down games they could make in full HD.

If you burn your eyes with a flashlight in the right spot and always look at the same part of Link so the afterimage lines up on his head you could make his hair look pink to you
