@bfa1509: Nintendo Direct is like a series of mini-E3s for Nintendo games.

Don't forget Metroid Prime. One of the best games ever made.

Just play all 3 of them. They're all amazing games.

I miss Miiverse and the Internet Browser... still my favorite console Nintendo ever made, though.

Not much. Great level design and gameplay... what else can we expect from it?

Being only halfway through BotW, I felt like voting for it would be dishonest. Went with A Link to the Past instead.

Can't believe I actually sat through the whole OP. My head kinda hurts now...

Watched a few of his videos before and... yup, that sounds like something he'd do.

These threads are always one of two things. Either an intelligent, articulated opinion... or really just a bunch of random, half-thought ''truths'' the OP wants to force down our throats. Seems like we're going with choice number 2.

It's a hard question to answer. Both games excell in certain things, while being lackluster in others.

They're the only two games I currently own on Switch and I find myself switching back and forth between the twos rather often for different reasons. Sometimes I miss Zelda's combat and superior exploration, sometimes I miss Skyrim's more interesting world. Let's be honest here : Zelda's world is a little shallow. It's pretty, but Skyrim manages to be pretty too while being more interesting. Zelda's shrines are also a little disappointing. Not enough towns, and not enough to do in what they have. But, Zelda's spontaneous and random encounters in the wilds, plus the incredible gameplay involved behind everything you do, makes the adventure more exciting than Skyrim. I would say that Skyrim seems more intellectual than Zelda, who seems to be focused on being a fun and engaging adventure. No weapon upgrading in Zelda, no guilds, no books laying around you can read, no leveling up your abilities... everything is centered around gameplay in Zelda.

They're about even to me. I like both immensely for different reasons.
