    We are so lucky Nintendo sells shitty video games instead of health insurance. It could always be worse, folks.

      Yeah no shit. They haven’t released a decent Zelda since Minish Cap (Link’s Awakening doesn’t count cause it’s a remake). Not a decent Mario game since Super Mario Sunshine, either. They actually went backwards with that series, and started doing side-scrollers again! I got sick of 2D games in the 90s!

      I just don’t understand why people keep giving this company money. They haven’t released a decent game or system in over 20 years!

        I’m not a big fan of Breathe of the Wild but Odyssey is superior to Mario 64 in every way imaginable. The game play is similar but the worlds are bigger, the puzzles are more varied, the controls are tighter, more stars to collect, etc. Sunshine is good but I always perfered its predecessor (I still watch speed runs for it.)

        For a non-Nintendo platformed, Shadows Legends has the tightest control of any 3D Sonic game. Best 3D Sonic since Adventure 2.

          I disagree whole-heartedly. The maps in Odyssey feel so empty and devoid of life. And there’s way too many moons to collect, completely ruining the sense of accomplishment you get grabbing one.

          I tried to enjoy the game but I couldn’t force myself to play it for more than a couple of hours.

            That’s a fair opinion. It’s how I personally feel about Switch Zelda.

            I think the amount of stars does make watching speed runs more interesting. It’s more varied than Mario 64.
