Went to get my pre-ring done so I can get in and out super fast at Gamestop. At 6pm there was a huge line of people even though the store only has 8 consoles and one dude in a truck was basically doing doughnuts while screaming "I'LL GIVE 100 BUCKS TO WHOEVER GIVES ME THEIR SPOT IN LINE."

Can't wait to go up there in a couple hours again and see if anythings changed!!

almost through prering myself

Yeah, it's good. You can use the left buttons as a dpad so can be more precise than the stick. I already have it for PC & PS4, but it plays as good here as it does on either of them.

sweet thx

Hey man, I followed your harrowing journey of not having a Switch pre-order. Just wanted to say that I'm glad you found one. Also, gently caress you for finding one.

Okay goddamnit. I know BOTW is good.

But the acid test: is it better than Ocarina?

The former, for sure. Because that was the best they could do at the time.

The reality of playing OOT now isn't fair to it; our expectations have understandably taken leaps and bounds in the 20 years since. My question could be put better: "Is playing BOTW in 2017 better than playing OOT was in 1998?"

yes it is

Man I have such a great time when I play this game. I've been lost from the main quest for like 3 real days and I refuse to read where to go next because exploring this map is the most fun ive had exploring in any open world game ever

awesome

There have been lots of questions the last few days on what case to get. I picked this one up the other day and I love it. This is the PDP Nintendo Switch Starter Kit, in Mario graphics. It runs 29.99 and I got mine in Gamestop.

The case is a thick molded vinyl and it feels rugged enough that you can throw the Switch in a bag or something and not worry about it like one of the soft cases. It has room to hold a few accessories in there, like the included ear buds and screen cloth. It has a strap to secure the Switch and an additional padded middle section (which can store game carts) to keep the console from rubbing your accessories. I like the included screen protector as well. They make it in several designs. The kit also includes JoyCon covers, but those feel like garbage so I don't have them on.

I have one of these cases for my N3DS and its served me well for several years, so I see no reason why this won't do the same. So yeah, there you go for those wondering. I really like it!

i have this case. its good

Sounds like you're playing the game the wrong way, idiot. Go watch some Twitch streams.

Called every store in a 50 mile radius this morning. No switches but Targets around here may get some tomorrow?

good luck on getting a switch

That's what I did last night. But at like 11 PM I was like OK, I've got like 2 hours, I can go to (first dungeon) now. I've got enough hearts, food's good, weapons good... Next thing I know, it's 1 AM, and I've got a friendly NPC telling me I'm about halfway there. I forgot, the trek to Zelda dungeons are usually dungeons on their own.

it feels properly like an adventure. i remember getting zelda 1 and seeing that cover and its like. thats what this game really is. its great

Ok, last big picture post. But I am posting this here since I am avoiding the Zelda thread for spoilers, but my strategy guide came in today (yes, I see the irony in this sentence). It looks great and comes with a cool map. Definitely some good shelf candy and something to flip through to put next to Hyrule Historia.
