It might be fun, but you gloss over the fact that it is literally the ugliest Zelda game since Wind Waker, which is not a compliment. It’s a photo finish at this point which game is more repulsive to look at.

Ditto. The lack of a manual in games is honestly the thing I miss the most. Everyone always talks about how no one ever used it, how they would just jump straight in without reading one page. I read the things cover to bad. Especially on the way home from purchasing it (obviously not while I was driving).

Same reason for CD longboxes. To circumvent shoplifting. Not saying it’s a practice that works, but it’s the logic they use.

How recent do you want? Will “yesterday” work?

There is nothing that Nintendo can say that will matter unless it is “We’re going multiplatform.”
