    I want MK8D, but I dont think I should have to pay $60 again for it. Since Nintendo never drops prices on games guess ill never have it.

    Im still loving Zelda. Im 65 hours in and have never gone west of Hyrule castle.

    Don't play yourself.

    Finally beat the fourth divine beast. The one on the volcano. Probably the easiest one.

    Just picked up the Neon Joy Cons today too. Gonna play some 4-player Mario Kart on the weekend.

    It only save at your pervious save not after the fight. However there should be a symbol or something by your last save to let you know you beat the game.

    I think I just about surpassed 70 hours on this game. Got 70+ shrines, 4 Beasts and all but one memory.

    Not sure when I want to go get at Ganon.

    I probably have 70 hours in, only 1 divine beast and 1 Zelda memory. Still crazy to me how everyone has a different experience with this game.

    @Karl I couldnt find concrete first 2 months, U.S. only PS4 and XBO sales, but if I remember, neither were tracking ahead of the Wii, which Switch currently is.

    And, again, the key differentiator is that Switch launched in Spring, not during the Holiday rush like every other console. Crazy.

    Yo so really you can just walk right up to Ganon and beat him, innit? From after you leave the plateau. Coz
    the Divine Beasts only take out half of his life
