My interpretation of what’s going on with Nintendo is that the Switch 2 is probably going to be fairly early on next year, maybe around May, and that the only reason they’re not announcing it now is they don’t want to put anyone off buying the current Switch at Christmas. Did they expect reviewers to be more negative? I wonder what they thought might not go down so well? The reused map maybe? It doesn’t seem as if there were really many performance issues, Digital Foundry’s report was a lot more positive than I was expecting. It makes me wonder why the embargo was so relatively late though, you would’ve thought that if Nintendo was confident about the game they wouldn’t have done it so late. Maybe they’ll be the sort that has their review go up later but every source that I took notice of seemed to love the game, including GC. I expect it but, as another reader said recently, I was expecting some sites to be contrarians. I love to see the universal praise for Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom. GC: Some dungeon puzzles do require the use of Ultrahand and the other abilities but it’s mostly elements intrinsic to the dungeon. I can imagine though if the bosses are old school ones, where you’ve got to learn the one trick that defeats them, that doesn’t really match up with the freedom you have elsewhere.Īre the dungeons the same problem? Are they just ordinary puzzles or are you using Ultrahand/Fuse with them as well? It seems to me it would’ve probably been better to have these dungeons in Breath Of The Wild and the Divine Beast in Tears, but never mind – it doesn’t seem as if it spoils the overall experience. I was most interested though, in why you thought the dungeons and bosses still didn’t quite hit the mark. I had no idea about the underground as well and that’s actually bigger than the sky islands?! If that’s what you get for reusing the same map as the last game I am absolutely all for it. I’m definitely going to try and repeat some of those myself. I appreciate the depth you went into and loved your examples of how you used the Ultrahand. Great review of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom, GC. But I look forward to that OpenCritic top five being all Nitnendo games before too long. ![]() I’m not sure why anyone doubted your or why they will end up doubting you again the next time you have a big game out. So well done Nintendo, you’ve done it again. Especially as there’s a big question over its new direction. Final Fantasy 16 is the only possible contender that’s not out yet and I think that franchise is far too divisive for it to ever be considered the best of the year. ![]() Unless there’s something amazing hiding in the background, I don’t see what could possibly beat it. ![]() Before I even get that far though I’m going to assume that it is a dead cert for game of the year.
