Imagine if a theoretical game has 100 levels and the DLC is 33 new levels.

It's kinda like that considering they are adding a 4th dungeon.

That's assuming the Dungeons are massive endeavors, dungeons aren't that long in 3D Zeldas, and you spend a lot of time out of them, I'd say most of your time is spent out of dungeons if you're going for 100%. The new dungeon might just be another hour of content which isn't that great but who knows. I hope the DLC takes place out at sea.

Mine's getting delivered to work too. Hopefully early so I can set it up and download Zelda using our fat pipe. :fap:

Hoping to convince a couple guys on the fence to get one, getting in some early morning Mario Kart would be great for team building.

My workplace is really lax, and my boss is usually gone on Friday's so I'll probably be able to set the Switch up and get Zelda downloading. I just hope Nintendo's servers aren't being loving destroyed on release day (they will be) so I can get the drat game downloaded.

MH4U and MHGen were much better games than MH3U, but my favorite Monster Hunter experiences were 3 people on their 3DSes playing with a fourth friend on his Wii U. The fact that Switch will let us do that by default with its eventual Monster Hunters is going to rule hard.

This was one of the best things.

I'm planning on hitting up a midnight Best-Buy or two in the off-chance that they have switches available to the general public, then a 7AM Toys 'R' Us in the slim chance that the local homeless population has scared off all the other campers.

If I show up to work late, scruffy, and punctured on Friday, my boss'll understand. He also wants a Switch.

Also it wouldn't be the first time I'd shown up under those conditions.

I didn't even realize it was a thing until it was already sold-out, I didn't get interested in it until I saw the Mario Odyssey trailer (which evoked strangely fond Sonic Adventure memories), and I didn't get properly obsessive until a few weeks ago when I got bored at work and started reading this thread.

Basically, I blame all of you folks.

Nintendo is already in the process of downloading every rom available on [cheesy rom site] to stock up the VC.

e: Maybe shouldn't mention it by name, even if it's infamous.

On the Switch Nintendo will let you download any VC game for free but only if you promise to delete it after 24 hours.

Several of their VC releases and the NES Classic (iirc) have had the roms extracted, and said roms included iNES headers.

Real talk though a "Don't make me go Zelda on you" shirt would be horrible.

But not a King of Games shirt though they're always pretty classy.

Link goes to Hyrule Academy, where he finds himself surrounded by beautiful and quirky high schoolers!

The twist is that he's one of the love interests of Princess Zelda, and the entire DLC is about making her work for your affection by spending stamina daily and building her stats.

I don't have very high hopes for Dragon Quest Heroes' port, because the game already ran kinda janky enough on PS4. We'll see, though, that's just imposed/edited footage.

Hey, if you are looking for a case, I just ordered this one and cancelled my other normal grey case.

For some reason it was kinda buried in options and only seems to come with the $30 version but it's leagues better than the other Zelda version.

I have the BOTW Master Edition preordered online through Best Buy with in-store pickup but I don't have GCU. Is it possible to sign up for GCU and apply it to an existing order? Or is this something I can do when I go to pick the game up?
