But but...the nostalgia argument doesn't hold much significance for Mario as it does for Zelda. Phir bhi 82 Metascore, despite including not 1 but 3 Mario games 🤣
I mean, imagine the score if nostalgia wasn't at play :ROFLMAO:

You just paid $60 for a version that hasn't aged well at all despite the countless "improvements" you posted in this thread. Lets hope you somehow get your money on the double with this one :ROFLMAO:

3 hours into the game and I feel that Skyward Sword charm is still fresh. The only gripe at the moment is the awful camera control. Thats the only thing that has not aged well for this game. But i do think that i might get used to it after a little while. Convoluted control schemes are endemic to Zelda games. BOTW's only issue for me was its confusing controls that took a lot of time getting used to.

The motion controls in the game really give you a good sense of being ‘one’ with the game. It takes some getting used to but really fun to play with.

I am actually used to play all games in the handheld mode but you are right the game did make some great use of motion controllers even on the WII with the motion plus accessory. I'll give it a try with the joycons detached.

The moment of taking out the goddess sword and then when to use the full light power, it really gave a good sense of playing an immersive game. So far my favourite moment in it.

Context bhi tou samajh lou lol.


It's translating the Wii's graphics APIs to that of the Switch. Emulating a Wii game has less hurdles compared to native Switch games. And lmao @ only testing the opening area :LOL:

No emulator is perfect. There are shader cache related stutters even in BOTW running on CEMU (Wii U Emulator) today whenever assets with shaders that can't be cached asynchronously are loaded.

Held off my Skyward Sword HD playthrough as I was waiting for these joy-cons to arrive. My cellphone camera doesn't do them justice; they look way better in person. Worth every penny :love:

Special thanks to @amaga e-shop for making it happen 🤩
Congratulations CT
Another worthy Addition in ur collection.

Damn!!!! Those Joycons look freaking amazing.

I am 15 hours in the game and really enjoying my time with it. I wish i could play more of it in docked mode since the motion controls are very intuitive but it is a very enjoyable experience nonetheless. After playing this i wish i could have played Twilight princess on the switch too since i never completed it on the WII. Heck i would even be down to give a Wind waker a try too since i didnt particularly enjoyed it back when it came out.

Can anybody explain me what's the hype xDDDDDDDD Nintendo decides a decade later to release an HD version while people played the shit out of this on the dolphin with HD texture pack in 4k. People are paying 60$ for this, lmao. Though seeing it's Nintendo fans, it isn't that surprising :ROFLMAO:


Nintendiots 🤷‍♂️ :ROFLMAO:


(Note: Digital sales not factored in for Nintendo's games)



8 of the top 20 games are Switch exclusive. Why are Sony, Microsoft, and Valve even trying 🤣

    The only valid thing from his pov he said in the video is AC dead since Black Flag. According to woke police that game was woke too. Welsh man in West Indies. So atleast he's consistent I guess lol

    Nope. They have a very valid case. The above video explains it all.

    Did y'all see the new Assassin's Creed trailer? They finally made a AC set in Japan & then they put a negro as the male protagonist. Ubisoft is taking cues from Disney, and it isn't gonna end well for them, just like Disney. Go woke, go broke!

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.
