Link’s Awakening HYPE

Nintendo is actually being good.  I’m so glad Nintendo has decided to make a Switch remake of Link’s Awakening.  It’s a comparatively old game in the series, and was beloved by many who played it.  It was never as big, because it was on the GameBoy and not a console like the SNES, but it sure did have a good story.

Canonically, it’s in the downfall timeline right after A Link to the Past.  It’s actually quite a weird game, due to it spoiler warning not actually being a real adventure.  It’s all a dream, and it happens as Link is going on his own journey after A Link to the Past.

What’s even more interesting about this game is that it was originally meant to be a combination of Nintendo’s most popular series, Mario and The Legend of Zelda.  That’s why there’s a chain chomp in the first picture.

I’m glad a new generation is able to get to play this.  Not many people own a GameBoy (the Advance in specific I think) nowadays, so not many have played this game.  It can often be overlooked by many as being a great game.  I can’t wait for this game coming this spring.  I also can’t wait for Metroid Prime 4, which I’ll talk about next week.  Until next time, have a nice day.

SUPER SMASH BROS ULTIMATE

Probably the most anticipated game right now, Super Smash Bros Ultimate is coming out on December 7th of this year.  The Switch really got Nintendo back in the U.S., so it’s not like Nintendo stuff is irrelevant.  I’m super pumped for this game, really just because of the mass amount of characters there are.  Of course, unlocking them may be annoying, but it’ll definitely be worth it.  Of course, I’ll be going with your good ol’ boy as ____, and ______ as my mains.  SIKE, I’ll reveal my main later in this post, but for now I’ll just talk about the game.

This year’s new Smash game is not just going to be a repeat of previous Smashes.  THERE ARE SO MANY NEW CHARACTERS, 76.  Technically 69 unique characters, but shhh that doesn’t matter.  Ultimate is the fighting game with the largest amount of playable characters ever, so of course, it’s really hyped up.  There are going to be some DLCs, 5 I believe, and there is also a pre-order bonus; you get Piranha Plant as a playable character.  This character won’t be available immediately, but will be soon after the game launches.

Alright so you guys have waited long enough, my mains are Link and Samus.  Yeah I know, very original, but Metroid and The Legend of Zelda are some of my favorite game series.  I prefer using characters I like rather than characters that are good.  Of course, I’ll also be using Zero Suit Samus, Dark Samus, Zelda, Sheik, Ganondorf, and Ridley, but probably not as much.  I’m positive Link will be good, at least A tier, but I’m not sure about the others.  Dark Samus is an echo fighter of Samus, and is more or less a redesign.  I’m still really hyped up for it regardless.  Super Smash Bros Ultimate definitely deserves the hype.
