          Would the digital release be the quickest and most certain way to play on release day? I am expecting it will go live on eShop before the stores open. I am travelling on May 12th, so hope I can download it before getting in the plane.

            @Mikeer: Don't get the digital version in my opinion. The physical version will retain it's value for at least the next 10 years.

              @Cjdanger: @Mikeer @CjdangerIf you don’t want to sell the game.. ever, would you still consider buying physical over digital?
              I was inclining towards digital (using the eShop 2 game voucher) and then not switching cartridges between ToTK & ring fit.

              • Cjdanger on 14/04/2023 - 16:39

                @kc7: Both digital and physical have their positives and negatives. You do what's right for you mate.

                Though chances are you'll be paying a premium to have a digital copy if you are buying it on release.

                EDIT: Just reread your comment and saw you have a voucher. Considering you've already paid for a voucher you may as well get it digitally.

          30 minutes isn't enough to get a good feel. To be honest I've played about 30/40 hours and only now starting to "get it".it is a bit of a grind and the environment is pretty samey.

          Doesn't change the fact that they're all garbage. Someone further up suggested that Nintendo could have included a small game manual inside the case like they used to with older games - which I def would have preferred to any of the current options.

          Spoon, fork, luggage tag, pins, coin, shirt, etc etc they're probably just going to end up in landfill.

            @DeToxin: The wall scroll and blanket are cool

            They won't end up in landfill even though they're otherwise garbage. Because there's enough people that think a Zelda spoon is too valuable to chuck out that they'll horde it for 80 years.. Sigh

      The RRP is $89.95. The best price over the next year(s) is on release, while every retailer is in competition. Buy now and save or buy later and pay more. In 2024 you could still sell both and possibly break even.

        It has as much story and lore as most Zelda games. That is more than enough.

        At least it isn't filled to the brim with cutscenes and irritating voice acting like many "AAA" games these days. Give me good gameplay over cutscenes any time. If I want to watch B-grade cinematics with horrible acting, I'll go to the movies. Games are for gameplay.

        • justtoreply on 14/04/2023 - 16:44
          +2

          That's just your opinion. To me it's not enough. Improved story would help.

          The reason i play Zelda though is the puzzles. Which they lost their way at. I'll buy this game because i know i can sell it for about what i paid, but my hopes are low.

        • Flying owl on 15/04/2023 - 11:23

          There are plenty of games with a combination of great cutscenes + gameplay.

          Why do we have to choose only one or another?

          And I am not trashing the game or anything like that.

          • axyh on 15/04/2023 - 19:06
            -1

            @Flying owl: I've honestly never seen a "great cutscene" (i.e. one I didn't feel like skipping) in my 30-odd years of gaming. They're all sub-B-movie quality, and come at a time when I've sat down to play a game, not to watch a short film. Any longer than 30 seconds starts dragging and has me reaching for the "skip" button.

            If I want to watch something, I'll watch a movie, not play a game.

            However, I realise that others have a different opinion. That's fine. But just because a game doesn't have "story" (i.e. endless cutscenes), doesn't automatically make it bad. Nor does it mean it's lacking in lore or characterisation. It's just prioritising gameplay over non-interactive narrative.

        EB Games does price match, but generally only:

        • If their competitors that you are price matching against has a store in the same vicinity.
        • The competitior has the product in stock at that store.
        • It's the exact same SKU (so they might use the different pre-order bonus as an excuse to deny the price match).
        • Plus whatever arbitrary rules the employee/manager at that EB store comes up with to deny the price match.
