life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb
that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze
bad things happen, no one knows why / the sun burns out and everyone dies
Like, Skyrim's getting held up as an example of a fantastic game coming to the Switch soon

It's a good thing that Zelda is crazy awesome because the Switch has a definite library problem that's looking like it's going to be extending well beyond launch

Something few people are talking about with regards to the Nintendo Switch is something that actually might be most significant in the long term across all of our electronics: the USB type-C power supply supporting USB Power Delivery 2.0.
People have been testing the Switch with various USB-C power adapters and it seems to properly implement PD 2.0. The adapter that comes with the Switch can deliver power in two flavors: 5V==1.5A (7.5 watts) or 15V==2.6A (39 watts). The 7.5W mode is enough the charge the battery while it's sleeping, or greatly extend its runtime without charging while in use. The 39W mode can run the console docked and charge the battery at full rate.
Another company recently committed to USB-C and USB PD also: Apple. They've shipped a couple laptops that charge exclusively over USB-C and shipped a few USB chargers. Apple's adapter can supply 20.2V==4.3A (86 watts), 9V==3A (27 watts), or 5.2V==2.4A (12 watts).
If you connect Apple's laptop power adapters to the Nintendo Switch, the Switch queries the power supply, picks the 9 volt mode, and draws 9.6 watts. That's enough to run the system and charge slowly. Not totally ideal, but the Switch is talking to the Apple hardware, negotiating the best power plan both devices support, and, most importantly, it works. The Switch isn't even using a mode that Nintendo officially uses anywhere else.
I know it's funny that I am excited about this but Nintendo and Apple have both taken a common standard and implemented it and their products are interoperating correctly! These are two historically notoriously proprietary companies, embracing a consumer-friendly standard with little fanfare, and a couple of their released products are interoperable. This is huge.
We might really finally get a universal DC power supply specification that works across devices and isn't a bunch of undefined borderline dangerous crap with only bad connector options like USB type A's 100mA / 500mA / 1A / 2A nonsense. It's happening guys.

You could resell the switch and zeldo after you finish it
I don't recommend this course of action because zelda has been shit since it went 3d

meanwhile, they did something to trash up the USB-C video standard to it will only output video via their dock

There are a mini-game collection.
bayonetta 1+2 hd would seem like a natural choice
which is good, because it's $20

drop considerably less to get a wii u and get it on that along with bayonetta and hyrule warriors
yeah! mario! and then smash!
but those aren't put yet
is it considerably less though? $100?
There will be a mario. It will also be good.
Everything else is a crapshoot.
Just one other game:
idk I paid $175 for a wii u like 2 years ago

Yes Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask were awful and absolutely not some of the best games of that entire console generation.
I don't wear pants unless I have to.
I agree with this assessment of Zelda but the game sounds like it's genuinely challenging and very different
