It was the philosophy of Gunpei Yokoi that the entire company ultimately adopted. He called it "Lateral thinking with withered technology". The basic idea is to take a cheap, mature and well known piece of tech and adapt it to new ideas. I think their application to their next Zelda game might be taking this too far. Triforce does look cool tho' 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a3quit4s | 4,098 Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Seems like GameStop’s got extra collectors editions in. Had the standard paid off but they let you come early to claim your spot in line - I was able to grab one of the extra collectors editions. Get to GS early if you are doing midnight and they are doing numbers for the queue early and you might get lucky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacepup | 2,404 Administrator · Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 I have a regular edition scheduled to arrive tomorrow. Unfortunately, I'll be pretty busy this weekend so I may not have time to try it out, but I'll get to it relatively soon. A few people have received today even. Hope everyone enjoys and has a great weekend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloves | 11,778 Administrator · Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Mine won't arrive until Next Tuesday cuz Amazon just straight up refuses to offer faster shipping for the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven’t ordered a new release game from them since they did away with the 20% off and even that was almost not waiting until like 3-4pm on release day lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OptOut | 8,884 Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 You guys will have to get back to me here once you've had the chance to play it. I am pretty burned out on BOTW, and this game looks very similar to me, so I am probably gonna put off buying it for a while. If you guys think it's worth playing even if you've already done the original to death then I'll give it a go, so lete know how you get on!

Not a troll question, but does Like to the Past actually get enjoyable? It's the only Zelda game I haven't played and I'm currently playing it but it's a bit boring. I just got up to the Dark World and so far A Link Between Worlds is far superior. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LBW is pretty sweet though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
