To achieve the true ending, one must become ambidextrous and wield the sword in the left hand. Then they must go to a stylist.

I'm not clicking that and it might be about time to go into blackout mode for anyone who wants surprises.

This game more than most because even if you and a bud are both 20 hours into the game, beyond the initial setup you might have seen and done NOTHING the same, so literally everything is a spoiler, which is both awesome and terrible simultaneously

Maybe don't read the Zelda thread until the games out? That preview article also said nothing fwiw

I could I guess but it's honestly nothing. The worst thing in that article is a super vague description of what one of the bosses looked like. It was till all nintendo curated content.

As for the statement Enter the Gungeon has a amusing zelda throwback level in it that ends with you fighting a Aganim and Ganon knock off... who both use guns as enemies tend to do in that game.

Has anyone seen the hardcover strategy guide for BotW for sale anywhere yet? I don't normally buy strategy guides anymore, but Zelda is the exception. I even have the one for Spirit Tracks and that's basically the only Zelda that I don't own (I bought the treasure chest).

Aren't those usually released at the same time (or after) the game comes out?

I wonder what's going to happen if the Switch tanks, will Nintendo scramble to release something else to replace it or do the third party thing? I can't wait to see the hacking scene rip the thing open.

If Nintendo actually goes third party they'll just make bad but extremely profitable mobile games for the rest of time. Enjoy your fantasies

Yeah, it's cool that a "collector's" edition finally comes with something that's useful and practical. I was going to get a case for my Switch but Zelda solved that problem. I just hope it doesn't dirty easily, though I'm sure it will, the details look like rubber.

Remember when everyone lost their poo poo about Wind Waker being cel shaded? Has the Zelda fan community gotten over their hard-on for "realistic Zelda"?

As it is, I haven't played Wind Waker since like '03-'04 and it is the game I want to replay the most. I hope the HD version gets released on Switch.
