I would be. I've never played it and would really like to. I put it over Twilight Princess in game I want to get/play and under Wind Waker.

That said, Four Swords or Triforce Heroes, primarily the latter, would be great with a present online community. It's a super fun game.

I'd play Twilight Princess again. Skyward Sword too, but only if they added some qol stuff to Fi dialogue/item pickup etc.

the horse combat was fun and easy and they should’ve done more with it

Twilight Princess was a huge let-down, but it's possible I tried to play it too quickly.

It's very sad that in a lot of the directs they go out of their to explicitly say that "This and only this" is being presented today. They do that in the Smash trailers a lot so people don't freak out about reveals and it's kinda pathetic how immature the audience is.

I just got a standard Switch, is there a consolidated post covering what I should/shouldn't do? Should I install games or run then off the card, sleep mode versus turning the system off, wired vs wireless controllers, ect.

The Smash Brothers Community is honestly the absolute worst. Do you not remember the stinky day incident? Or the Grinch leak meltdown / Civil War? Or like 4 months ago where a whole bunch of Smash players were revealed to be literal predators?

get a decent read/write speed card for installing games to SD. internal memory is fine.
sleep mode is fine. it's basically a tablet.
whatever controller works for you. joycons are fine; might drift eventually, though. pro controller is fine. questionable dpad; doesn't bother some people. PowerA and 8bitdo make good controllers too. just check general reviews, really!
enjoy your mario machine!

There was some serious ooga booga bullshit on twitter and the leaker who leaked the Partner Showcase stated he wouldn't be leaking ever again because apparently it was very appropriate to harass and threaten him for leaking only the date and not "warning" them that the "partner showcase" wouldn't be showing 40 hours of BotW2 footage among other things. I saw a handful of tweets justifying it because "that's just how the internet works" and "if you didnt want the spotlight...", etc, along with more conspiratorial claims that in fact, it would have been a real direct if the leaker hadn't leaked, leading Nintendo to change it to a partner showcase out of spite. There's also many other weird conspiracies/accusations like "Nintendo is using the Coronavirus as an excuse because reasons!" etc etc.

As for Smash fans being physically disgusting balls of ball sweat and asscrack: https://compete.kotaku.com/smash-players-plead-with-each-other-to-please-for-the-1826150759

And for smash fans going insane, threatening journalists, each other, moderates on the side, accusing people of being part of a vast web of conspiracies of damage control for Nintendo (over what was a completely fake leak): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4jJBQSrIK8

Smash fans are bad enough they got me to stop collecting amiibos because the last time I went there to snatch up some rare ones in 2015 two of the guys there were just openly and loudly using homophobic and racist slurs in casual conversation while all the other people exchanged uneasy glances. That was also the year that I started treating Nintendo games as a hidden shame and ordering only from amazon because fuuuuuuuuuuck that.

Get a screen protector. The AmFilm one the OP recommended is the standard recommendation, but any would probably do.

Otherwise, not really much else. Sleep mode is fine, though if you're playing the same game for a few days you may want to exit out and restart it since a few games can get wonky if they stay up for too long. You may want a decent-sized SD card depending on how much digital games you plan to buy, so make sure to not buy counterfeits for those.

This. All fandoms have some cool people and some really broken fuckheads.

All we can do is try to be a thread of cool, mostly level-headed people who aren't creeps or entitled angry dipshits who also happen to like talking about games and other topics on the Nintendo Switch, good and bad.

I never played Spelunker but its music was one of the songs I played the heck out of when I was first getting into Taiko no Tatsujin on iOS, so basically what I'm saying here is I hope Spelunker is announced as a DLC song for Taiko Switch or something.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=So02NIq02r0

I love how every Spelunker medley has the death music in the first ten seconds.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AAAcPpNfZiA

While I never got very far in the original game as a kid, I liked the music. I knew about the Playstation remakes but I didn't know that Spelunker Party is out on the Switch, so I think I'm gonna pick that up because it looks great.
