Reilly Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Celebrating the one-year anniversary of the release of Breath of the Wild on March 3rd, followed by St. Patrick's Day on March 17th, so let's kick off the chat thread with some Celtic-style Zelda music! I picked 'Fang and Bone' for the chat name because it sounded most like it'd be the name of a pub. Doc Brown and EH_STEVE 2 Link to comment
Stephen 776 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 okay, now it's a chat thread. Link to comment

If I ever get this game (and a system to play it on), this track convinced me to put effort into trying to main Hit. I love the weird-ass saxophone noodling at the 1:05 mark, followed by at least two quotes of The Lick™. Link to comment

Probably the first time I didn't feel a burning desire to punch something upon hearing Kaepora Gaebora's theme. Still a mild desire to punch something, but not too strong. Link to comment
Stephen 776 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 One more question in switch: are games with one save slot (e.g. breath of the wild) one save slot per console or one save slot per profile? Link to comment

Profile. But with BotW one Profile can have a Normal and a Master Mode (if DLC paid for) slot. Doc Brown and Stephen 776 2 Link to comment

Not exactly; rather, hard (master) mode *itself* is part of DLC and they figure you don't want to override your old save file for your new hard mode playthrough. As such, it's effectively a second save slot. Link to comment

Stephen 776 Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 (edited) Like, I get that Nintendo isn't always the best developer, but I don't see them getting as greedy on the switchy as the rest of the AAA industry anytime soon. The worst that can be said about Nintendo's switch games is their DLC can be expensive by Nintendo standards--such as Xenoblade 2 and FE Warriors. And I specify switch games because FE heroes is a moneygrab and let's not pretend otherwise, but it's on mobile, so doesn't bode much of anything for the switch.

I don't find it to be as much of one as Pokemon Shuffle. It's impossible to get a lot of the rares now so I don't try that often. The odds are far more in favor of the house these days. They really, really want people to spend money on it. Found out about a worse one though: The X Files: Deep State. As bad as Shuffle's prices can be, this game out does it. $349.30 -- a combination price for 'special offer' bundles. No thanks guys, I'd rather get a Switch or a PS4 instead.

I don't really think of Pokemon apps as Nintendo's. The Pokemon Company is closer to a business partner than subsidiary of Nintendo, and so the PC can do what they want as long as they don't publish on competing platforms. That's a reason Pokemon showed up on mobile well before any other Nintendo franchise. Link to comment
