Anyone own Zelda TOTK OLED Switch?

[hypercybermegatron]

I know it doesn't come with physical game, but what about download code?

Other special edition Switches came with one which is why it's unclear. Deal breaker if no game in my view for the price.

Wasn't there talk recently about the Switch 2 being worked on?

Expect Nintendo to cease all support and online services for current gen hardware before too long. If they release a new SKU, it's just to suck out the last millilitre from the dead horse, to mix metaphors.

Why would they cease online services and support once a new Switch comes out? If it can play 1st gen Switch games, there's no reason to terminate support and split their consumer base.

I share your cynicism to a degree. I really enjoyed BOTW quite a lot but don't own a Switch so I'm prepared to buy TOTK console if it comes with download code.

I buy consoles these days at the end of their life cycle for a number of reasons. 1) More refined than initial release. 2) more games than initial release. 3) easier to buy second hand games

I wouldn't call it a dead horse by any stretch. What it shows is good games are more important than hardware and graphics capabilities.

Can you buy physical copies of switch games? Because if not, I probably will never buy it or even play botw or totk

Nah, Zelda boring

Nah. I already held off during the original rumors of an O.L.E.D. switch, and bit the bullet when the HAC-001(001) with the improved igzo L.C.D. was released, under the assumption that Nintendo wasn't going to do O.L.E.D. this generation.

I've been considering it anyway, but I am also thinking that the Animal Crossing switch was actually available for quite a long time so this might be too, and if I am being frank O.L.E.D. burn in on a portable game console does not sound too appealing.

On phones, it does not matter so much because most people replace those on a regular basis due to phone plan subsidies, but a handheld game console is something you kinda want to keep with you for life.

Also, d-brand kinda made their own knock-off skin to approximate the aesthetic.

Yeah, you can. They come on proprietary cartridges that resemble a full sized S.D. card. You gotta be careful to avoid buying something with a download code in the box at times though though. I've been spurned that way on a few purchases.

For example, Final Fantasy X comes on the cart., but then to get X-2 you have to use a redemption code. You get Megaman Legacy Collection on the cart., but Legacy Collection 2 is a D.L.C. redemption code. Sonic Origins comes on the cart., but then the Plus content has a D.L.C. redemption code. It's not terribly common, but companies need to stop this and spring for a higher capacity cartridge, 'cause I don't buy physical copies of games just to have to download content. v_v

This is probably the main reason I am not going to buy Sonic Origins Plus, since officially playable Amy Rose would be pretty awesome.

It doesn't actually come with Zelda though. It just has a zelda inspired design if you don't want plain black.

Yea, but they shut down DS services when the 3ds could support DS games

wont matter since switch people own their games on carts

you can buy the carts 10 years, 20 years from now and play
