Kent is cooked.

Libreofficedoes, what Nintendon’t.

Yeah, I’m surprised how many go to Bluesky. It’s just Twitter all over again, controlled by a single company.

Another tool to search in terminal is https://github.com/junegunn/fzf .

I don’t even know what All Night Nippon Super Mario Bros is.

It’s basically an official licensed Romhack, mostly (if not only I think) for graphics. “All Night Nippon” was a radio show and game was sold through lottery.

Nope she does not.

Not being an active gamer does not mean knowing nothing about the stuff. And yes, she does not need to play 200 hours like a sweaty gamer to understand what she is selling. It’s not the job of the CEO.

Lol same for me. Link’s Awakening was the first Zelda game I played through on my own Game Boy. This was basically my dream game from the SNES in small format for me. I have so much memories of this game too, the entire game was not even about Zelda. After that I got a SNES and well the rest is history.

I did not say a CEO should not know anything about the product they are selling… Can people not read?

I’m honestly completely blown away at the number of people who can’t read, but are able to type. And are able to hallucinate things into existence. Where did I wrote “absolutely anything”??

Taking 2 minutes to post 2 sentences is not the same as playing a game for 200 hours.

To me its clear that it meant to have a successor. That is my interpretation.

If Nintendo is issuing refunds, then its really bad. Even a free update that ruins a game could be a reason to refund, but this one even asks money.

How can one be the CEO of a gaming division

By all respect, a CEO does not need to be a gamer. Also 18 hours versus your 200… Maybe she does not have the same time as you to play? I honestly don’t know why people think that a CEO have to be this junky like us and play all day long.

I didn’t expect such a good fight in Tears, after the battle in Breath. BTW I completely ignored Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, until 2024 / 2025. And in fact, in the beginning I “hated” Breath for some of the concepts like breaking weapons and no classic dungeons. But I’m so glad to played them, because they are great experiences in their own right. Shows we should not judge too fast.

The last dungeon theme of Tears, when you enter the flying Castle on the outside, also impressed me a lot. And yes, the story, as it unfolds the truth (we don’t spoil here… :-)) was heart breaking, a feeling I never had before in a Zelda game. As to which is my favorite Zelda game? I really don’t know anymore. There are couple of games I need to play, especially Wind Waker and Twilight Princess. There was a time in my life when I didn’t play much games… and I missed some of the greatest classics.

I can recommend you to play A Link Between Worlds on the 3DS. It is a successor of some kind, playing in the same world. And man, the Dark World music remix is excellent.

Also Final Fantasy 6 has a mind blowing moment of this scale too. Nowadays one expect games to be big and we know beforehand how long it takes to finish them. One of the downsides of the internet.

The game is single player game, not like their previous multiplayer game. It’s entirely possible they pull an Activision-ass-move, where they released games on launch without microtransactions to get good reviews and then added them shortly after. I am not arguing this could not happen. On the other side, there are good stories too. In example Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order from E.A. never had microtransactions.

Zelda A Link To the Past was for a very long time my favorite game of all time. There are so many great moments during all Zelda games I played, but one particular moment still is my favorite. See, back then I didn’t own a console and could only play A Link to the Past on the friends SNES whenever I visit him. It was also my first Action Adventure game I ever played and I didn’t know games could be this big.

The moment was, when I defeated Agahnim for the first time (after the 3 medallions) I thought that I finished the game. What happened next was unbelievable. (Sounds like clickbait YouTube title, lol, but I try to avoid any spoilers… just by principle.)

They already commented that the game will not have microtransactions (at least on launch, who knows what happens later…). You buy the game fully and that’s it.
