The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening - now in stop-motion!

Really hoped that you could share dungeons you make to other players and vice-versa

Yes I thought that's what they were leading up to. I'm okay that they didn't, though: SMM2 (a third-party game now apparently) has the creation side nailed down.

Looking forward to reading what our resident LA superfan BrownRakoon thought of all this.

I've just seen the amiibo which is adorable

Here it is


Definitely another one for the collection but as well as that there's this beauty too.



I want it all.

My poor bank account is going to suffer a fair bit in September.

SOLD

NOT SOLD, but damn it's cute!

It's nice to know they're adding some new modes and things to do - I did wonder if they'd just be giving this a visual overhaul. I didn't need to see a lot more to know this would be the business, mind you.

I say, that's a week before my birthday *does villain-y finger-y thing*. I love this more and more each time I see it. I hope you can make a dungeon that spells the word POO.

It looked like the rooms come pre-made, though, so this isn't really Zelda Maker so much as a procedurally generated Zelda dungeon. Sorry, Balls Man . . .

Nah I'm not fussed, I'm fine with procgen extras in deterministic games. Ever Oasis had the same. I probably won't spend years on it, but it might be a fun diversion.

so this isn't really Zelda Maker

I want Zelda Maker now.

I'm even more doubtful of the general public's ability to make satisfying Zelda dungeons than I was their ability to make Mario levels, besides balls-difficult ones and ones that play themeselves.

I think I'd agree with that - did anyone ever dabble with Zelda Classic? I think it's as Zelda Maker-y as it should probably get (although secretly I'd like it to be a bit more flexible). I'm still excited to have a go, after catching the Treehouse thing - if I can make "Octorock Around the Clock" I'll be happy.

IT SHOULD BE ORANGE

But who cares this looks incredible and I am all in for that special edition and amiibo too!

My only disappointment is the apparent cut of the camera shop and photos (replaced by the admittedly good looking chamber dungeons).

I'm excited for this as haven't played the original despite the DX version being on my 3Ds, I've preordered the collectors edition (mainly for the art book) and the adorable Amiibo

I'm only just now noticing that the Switch doesn't have a camera like the 3DS/ Wii U did . . .

Did someone say Switch Pro?

More like Switch No!

It's Nintendo the masters of upgraded systems

New Super Nintendo Switch XL SP Pro i

Ah so Switch Pro only games will be the ones that use the camera

It all makes sense now

Looking forward to GB Camera Switch!

Started this a tad late last night and even though I own this on GB and GBC, I've never really played much of it.

I'm getting real Minish Cap vibes though as everything is sort of cute.

It's adorable! Although the frame rate switches are a pain in the buttocks. I spent about half an hour on the Trendy Game though, and far too long again finding out how to dust the raccoon.

It's good fun, but it does feel slow and old to me. No dash (or roll or whatever) option for a start.
