    I was so hyped when I saw it, can’t wait to play it. I really hope that it will be for Switch (please don’t be for Switch 2).

          Or Breath of the Wild. It was a launch title for the Switch but also had a version for the Wii U.

              In terms of gameplay I think the Sheikah Slate functions were mirrored on the Wii-U pad (at least that was likely the original intent.

              The Wii-U emulator was also a lot more developed when BotW released, so if you pirated it at launch the Wii-U version was the one to go with.

        I don’t think they’d have announced the weaker version of the game first. The first preview of the game would have been from the best possible version they have to show off, so this trailer is probably exactly that. I think it’s unlikely that this will be a dual-release game.

        Which makes me worry for the success of the game. Having what should be a cornerstone game for the Switch being released on year 8 of the console’s life span is not a good look. I want this to be good; I’ve been wanting this game ever since I finished Metroid Prime 3 back in 2007, I just hope it’s not too late to still find success.

        I’m hoping it’s gonna be like a GameBoy Color game. One cartridge. Play on Switch, regular graphics. Play on Switch 2, next-gen graphics. Everyone wins

          That would be really cool.
          Fun tidbit: there’s a tiny physical switch in the plug in port that tells those systems which mode the game is for. So if the cartridge presses that switch in, the Gameboy will use the Color/Advanced software, for example.

          I don’t remember which way is for what specific system, but I always thought that was clever.

            IIRC, GBC cartridges could physically fit inside the OG GB, but would throw an error when it required the extra power of the GBC. The GBA had the notch that determined Advance/not-Advance mode and made GBA games physically exclusive to the GBA

      I’d rather it be on Switch 2 just so it can run better/look better. Plus 2025, i mean… Switch 2 is coming in what, March or so?

        Games and consoles are really expensive in my country and since Switch 2 will probably have 4K (at least from TTYD source code) I’m not sure that I’ll be able to buy it.

          Well I guess then we will see, maybe they will do something similar to how they did for some of the zelda games in the past, where it’s on both the old and new system at the same time (as a launch title).
