Just watched the trailer. That looks like a lot of game, jeez. How do they even fit that much game onto a Switch cartridge?

Well, it is in fact the first Switch game to have a 32-gigabyte cartridge (until now the biggest game cards were 16 GB). However, the game still only takes 18.2 GB, which is impressive.

I was always under the impression the 3 main goddesses were pretty hands off when it came to Hyrule. Have they ever actually physically appeared anywhere in the series? I guess you could argue the Triforce is part of them

Removed all the 1s. If you only code with 0 it cuts filesize in half.

So what you're saying is... the game COULD have been 13.8 GB bigger? :thunk:

In terms of physical card capacity, yeah. But of course plenty of people buy digital and Nintendo is pretty good at optimizing for space so they're not gonna waste space for no reason.

Mortal Kombat 11 is like 32GB though and 64GB Switch cartridges appear to exist :confused:

Also I was wrong. There's been 2 games with 32GB cartridges already: The Witcher 3 & Attack on Titan 2: Final Battle.

But those seem to be the only ones, in the west at least.

Huh, that's really neat. Is there a list of those games somewhere?

Zat
Jan 16, 2008

gently caress, there might be more 32GB cartridge games; I was operating on some very old info. Those games I saw mentioned are old enough that there may well have been more since and not get mentioned. Didn't find a list though.

The one thing I do know is that no Nintendo 1st-party games have used 32GB cartridges. But TOTK probably will.

This one's a lot more string and corkboard but perhaps Zelda's location in the last scene?

The horizon looks like open sea and no prominent mountains in sight so off the coast to the south seems? plausible, if she's not just looking out from a cape or is in the sky; terrestrial just came to mind first since the trees didn't look quite as bright as the yellow ones we've been told are mostly to be found on the sky islands. But it could be a trick of the rendering distance.

As Sages, not goddesses. They show up as visitors in Minish Cap too, but they just seem to be humans in that.

Definitely at least a few years between BotW and TotK then. Maybe the timeskip is after Ganondorf awakens, would give some time for him to influence Hyrule

I wonder if Yunobo got replaced or at least got a massive facelift they want to keep secret still
