Might as well dump the edge review

I'm replaying Ocarina of Time right now, the last time I played Wind Waker was for a No Death 3 Heart Run and I wanted to fucking kill myself, Wind Waker is horrendous.

...

>What are you doing to pass the time Sup Forums?

Thinking about her.

>What are you doing to pass the time Sup Forums?

Working.

Wage slave life sucks, but I'll give it this; it makes the days go a hell of a lot faster.

Sometimes I feel that I like WW more than OoT, sometimes the other way round

But I only played WW twice though

Question: the charge that gamestop did, is it the real charge or is it one of those that pops up and then goes away in a few days?

you're just setting yourself up for disappointment if you hype the game up so much

Very spoilerish video, shows towns, a cave, some more advanced weapons and NPCs

I'M SO EXCITED

Watching some of the footage reminds me of when I first got OoT. I literally have not had that feeling with any other Zelda game.

Just enjoy the ride, nothing can stop the hype train for me after those previews so I just gave up

Playing it because my Switch and BOTW got here early.

Paya is going to be a lot of people's waifu

>5 days
>not getting it at midnight

4 days, baby!

I'm completing Twight Princess HD 100%

>What are you doing to pass the time?
Relentlessly consuming any and all BotW-related media. Previews, news articles, webms, anything.
It passes the time but at the same time makes the wait feel that much more longer.

Can't wait to pirate this. Gotta have a reason use my $250 paperweight.

The Gamexplain post-play 30 minute video said and I quote at the end.

"Make a good memory soon, because you're going to want to remember where you were at in life and what you were doing when you first played BoTW."

My hype levels are critical. I haven't preordered a switch or a Wii U version so I HAVE to pirate it for my homebrew Wii U.

I'm sorry moralfags. I'm sorry. But I have to. Don't blame me blame the industry.

We play videogames specifically to get away from shit like that user.

It's why waifus exist.

>tfw you have a job with leave days that can be taken for any reason with 1 week notice

Friday is gonna be good

You fool, an iron will avoids these things

Uni starts up again on Monday but I've only got classes Monday to Wednesday. If it somehow arrives Thursday then I'll be fucking stoked. Last time I pre-ordered I got XBC3D a day early which was nice.

>early
What did you do?

The music is so comfy

It's become a real balancing act with spoiling myself these past few days.
Static images I'm okay with, articles describing shit I'm okay with too.
But actual footage of what the game is going to look like in motion?

Augh...

Re-playing all my zelda collection why not BY TIMELINE

>she's sitting behind me

feels good

She isn't thinking about you.
If you ever do cross her mind, she sniggers to herself at the thought of your existence and moves on instantly.

Why did you scroll over this you idiot? It could have been leaked story spoilers.

cuck

Neither, play Majora's Mask

College and multiplayer games will keep me busy. Probably not going to get to pick the game up until Saturday.

>tfw you get the game on the 3rd, but the Switch arrives the 6th

Those three days waiting will be hell.

It's releasing on the e-shop at midnight, right?


RIGHT??

Heh, while you wii babies gather in front of the stores throwing a hissy fit when there's no copies left, I'm going to be on my computer emulating it on Cemu in crispy 4k 120 fps

Nothing.
UPS dude rolled around right before I got home from getting lunch and was about to leave, I caught him right as he was about to leave a 'we came by but you weren't here' note

I thought it was something else I ordered from Amazon a couple of days ago sinde I was expecting that. but nope, it was my Switch and BOTW.

My Bomberman copy wasn't in there though so I'm guessing that'll actually come when it's supposed to

buy it on the e-shop...?

Just stare at the game while you're waiting

Iron still corrodes and chips away...
Everything just looks so tantalizing and cool user!

Son of a bitch. Have fun man. I wish I had gone ahead and pre ordered it. Now after hearing about how the Wii U version goes down to the teens for FPS in some of the more heavy areas I just can't. Got to get a switch. At least I'll actually have more games to pick up for it in the months after, Mario Kart and Disgaea 5 complete and if this game is any indication, I will probably play it for months. Hell I played OoT and MM for years.

Hit a bit too close to home? :^)

really glad this is coming out at the start of Autumn here, seems like the perfect comfy game for the best season.

>Moblin swings big ass sword
>Link was so close he completely misses, but his back swing he actually pulls back, so the blade hits Link

It's the little things I swear. I don't think I have ever seen hitboxes this good. It puts Monster Hunter to shame and certainly kicks the shit out of Dark Souls. I don't think I will ever be able to go back to them after this. If things don't touch me, I shouldn't be hurt.

>Not taking your switch into work and playing it with your work wife and gay work buddy

Friday gonna be best day

WHERE IS THE WII U FOOTAGE.

I JUST WANT TO SEE HOW FUCKED THE FRAMERATE IS

It's actually not that bad.

Worse than the Switch, obviously, but still very serviceable. You will notice it maybe once your entire playthrough, in the exact places you'd notice it on the Switch too.

>What are you doing to pass the time Sup Forums?

I have uni homework but I can't fucking focus because of video game hype. I was in middle school last time this happened to me.

At least you're able to play the game on the same month. I'm panning to buy the LE when it's available here in SEA and buy the switch 3 months later. The launch switch units here are bundle with Zelda and 1, 2 switch. I'll wait it out till there's standalone units available and see the bugs from the early adopter.

ITS A HABIT AND I HATE IT

>early
crooked mailman confirmed

I vote Wind Waker because BotW is basically the game I imagined when I saw Hyrule in WW for the first time

FUCK FUCK FUCK
Why didnt I preorder it
WHY

oot

ww is shit

After you've scrubbed all the floors in Hyrule, then we can talk about mercy!

because you're not a faggot?

Pretty much nothing. I am playing some Spelunky while listening to podcasts/radio here and there because it's hard actually getting invested in anything when the game is coming out so soon.

My amazon order's delivery date postponed until further notice, so now I have another order with Best Buy. If I can't get my hands on either I'm prepared to drive around store to store so I can get a copy on release day.

It belongs to wind waker timeline so go with that one

Where's the source, your words mean nothing to me. Worse than the Switch is pretty bad in my opinion because the framerate looks shit on the Switch.

Also, is there a severe graphical downgrade?

One final point, please don't tell me you're basing everything off the 2015/2016 gameplay videos

because youre a retard who watches southpark

"lol dont preorder anything ever :^)"

>Nintendo does things right
>Kills entire genre

Open world games are going to go the way of the 3D platformer.

If it lasts only a little while then I'm sure people would be fine with it. I'm mostly concerned if Hyrule Castle will be fine. All those Guardians, lasers going off, explosions. Seems like it would make the Wii U slow to a crawl. Considering I was already thinking about getting the Switch, maybe it's better to just bite the bullet and get it now instead of waiting for a price drop.

It's one of the biggest developer's biggest (budget wise) franchise, I don't think a few sales lost is going to hurt

Oh god, FUCKING THIS.

One of the biggest disappointments of my gaming life was getting to Hyrule Castle in Wind Waker for the first time, seeing the vast, open fields, and getting super excited because this was OBVIOUSLY a Link to the Past/Ocarina of Time situation where the game was split into two obvious parts; in this case three dungeons above water, five dungeons in the vast fields UNDER water. It was going to be great!
And then it's not. And you don't. And then there's only two dungeons.
Fuck.

e3 2016 footage my dude

there is tons of it

You've preordered the amiibos, right?

Well reviews were saying this feels like a genre defining game. Where everyone would look to this to see what to do right from now on. So we either get a bunch of awesome Open World games years from now. Or we have everyone give up because Nintendo made them look bad.

Naked 3 heart mop only run when?

Preorders are usually bullshit, but for high-profile, highly anticipated games like this one, available copies are not guaranteed, so it becomes a necessity if you want to play day one.

If you're the kind of person to get anal about framerates to begin with, why the fuck are you so worried about games on the WiiU or the Switch? It's inferior hardware either way.

Any Italybro here? What's the preorder/stock situation here?
I've been a retard and din't preorder and now I want to buy it at launch or soon after. Will I be able to get it at FUCKING GAMESTOP?

>around the time when i woke up at 3am regularly even though i didn't need to go into uni until 10am
>preorder switch as it goes up
>know i'll have shit tons of deadlines around march
>do it anyway
>budget myself so i'll have enough
>manage it
>shit tons of report deadlines and work to do

should have just waited until the next payday but fuck it, i'll play it friday drunk af.

Play Nier

>thinking you will be able to download 14GB from nintendo's online store on launch day

you'll be lucky to get the day 1 update

Preorders can still be gotten in europe I think

bullshit. But*

No, I just don't have the extra money with all the games coming out lately. I'm hoping I'll be able to find some the week after the Switch comes out since I'll get paid again.

Im getting on the PEEU, how bad are the frame drops?

Even if it really bad, nothing is gonna stop me.

In the same boat user, didn't think that I would be getting a Switch and knew that everyone would just want the Switch version. Now too worried that the Wii U version won't be anywhere close to the Switch and buying the same game down the line just isn't smart.

Lucky for me, the Walmart near my house doesn't do preorders, so I'll just go in on Thursday sometime in the afternoon and simply wait until Midnight. Did the same thing for the Wii and Twilight Princess all those years ago. Man, that brings back memories.

Inside hyrule castle is actually perfectly fine. It's not the effects that do it, it's the space.
The slowest I've ever seen the game (Exactly like the Edge review, actually) was gliding down a high mountaintop towards a village in the rain. It's not the enemies and effects that do it, or the physics, it's just the sheer scale.

The game has never slowed down during combat, or boss fights, or in dungeons, and you get up to a LOT of crazy shit in those places.

I've never had problems before.
Zelda might be different, because it's bigger, but it should be fine, I'd think.

The edge article says it drops into the teens at the most intensive parts but rarely drops when it counts. That's good enough for me desu.

we haven't seen the wii u version

handheld mode seems pretty stable on switch, tv mode has more drops because it's playing 900p while handheld is 720p like the wii u

i don't get the appeal of zelda series
explain it weebs

So it's a problem of having to render so much stuff. Yeah, I can certainly see that. Good thing most of the time you are going to be on the ground or if you are in the air, looking at the ground in front of you. So slowdowns shouldn't really occur with any kind of frequency, or at least ones that you can't mitigate in some fashion.

Still guess I'm going to get the Switch. I keep thinking of the game on the go and I can't help myself.

it's sold everywhere in europe. there's either nobody buying or nintendo provided an insane amounts of consoles, games and accessories

here's from a damn grocery store in norway

>old build

Doesn't tell me anything.

Because I want at the very least, a stable 30fps?

All of the Switch footage has pretty significant frame drops and that worries me for the Wii U.

But in fairness, the Switch is running at 900p whereas the Wii U is 720p so hopefully the Wii U is smoother.

It's the Hero's Journey condensed into a video game. The Hero's Journey speaks to the human psyche on a deep and primal level.

the framerate issues on the switch has been exaggerated

>The last thing I’d like to spend a few moments discussing in today’s preview is aesthetics and presentation. While it’s long been debated whether a game should or needs to run at 60 frames per second or 1080p+ resolution, there are few if any reservations I have thus far regarding Breath of the Wild’s presentation. I don’t miss the resolution on my 65-inch 4K Samsung KS8000 LCD television, and the frame rate doesn’t bother me in the slightest. Drops are occasional but quite rare, and really never bothersome.

and he captured those two clips.

EDGE magazine said the wii u version would sometimes drop below 20 and it's definitely not better or smoother than the switch version, not even close.

Tells you more than your nonsense rambling, to be honest. You're looking for answers that people obviously don't have so why don't you just shut the fuck up and go back to staring at your wall.

Neither, dont burn yourself out before the game is out, hold your breath and let it go wild.

I broke up with my gf and lost my job. Nice memory I guess.

...

I miss the feeling of cuddling with a thicc and tall woman. I'm a manlet and I'll never learn but she made me feel like that was okay. When I played vidya with her and I die or get upset, she'd let me play with her tits to calm down. And she had a thing about being lewd around friends and family but trying to be secretive. But one day she just kinds stopped talking to me. We are a couple cities apart so we usually always talk to each other online. She's blocked me on Facebook so that was the final nail in the coffin of my relationship. I know she doesn't care about me anymore. I know she's found someone better than me. It's not hard to. So how can I forget her Sup Forums? She was so perfect.

BotW could be the greatest game of the past decade and Gamexplain would still sound like complete shills

>the framerate issues on the switch has been exaggerated

No it hasn't, virtually every video i've seen has had framerate issues, it's not a stable 30fps at all.

You're going to need to get me more than some literal who shill to prove me otherwise, especially when GameXplain and Digital Foundry noted Framerate problems.

>You're looking for answers that people obviously don't have

Thanks for wasting my time, this is literally all I was looking for you dumb shill

Reminder.

That is a great win win scenario

i dont get the appeal of whatever normie faggotshit you're into

explain it normie

After hearing Amazon has been delaying Wii U preorders, I am literally shaking I won't be able to pick up my Wii U preorder at midnight at Best Buy. What am I supposed to do bros?
Who am I kidding, I won't even have time to play it. Fuck college.

if she ghosted you she obviously didn't give a shit about you

it might hurt now but you won't even remember her when you're happily married and have a family years down the line while she becomes a fat used up roastie

>What are you doing to pass the time Sup Forums?
Playing games not meant for children on my console that has a superior open world game coming out even sooner
