Here is the E3 video where the release date was revealed if you missed Direct. New gameplay is shown off.
am i missing something? I'm sure i'll buy it day one since i've never played, but it's essentially just a 3d remake, the mechanics should be same like a link between worlds.
Link's Awakening is a remake of the Gameboy Classic. A Link Between Worlds was a completely new game.
Right but despite moving to 3d, the game mechanics and overall feel was identical. That was my point.
New in the context of this version. As in: it hasn't been shown before.new gameplay...

I care more about this the BotW 2.

I thought A Link Between Worlds was a remake of A Link to the Past from SNES? I never played LTTP, but I bought a 3DS XL Zelda Edition just for LBW and loved that. When I saw this Switch remake was announced, I thought it was another remake of LBW, so I kind of dismissed it, hah. I never played the previous Game Boy Zelda games except for Oracle of Seasons I think it was on GBA. Since I never played Links Awakening though, now I'm just as excited for this as I am for the BotW sequel.
If the Switch is a GBA, why can't I play my GBA games on it?To be honest, i thought this would be 39.99 title.
60 bucks is steep for a GBA game.

You can play almost any game up to N64 on your switch very easily..If the Switch is a GBA, why can't I play my GBA games on it?
Better to buy a 3DS for all the portable stuff from Nintendo. You can play GBA/DS/3DS all on a 3DS without having to emulate, you just need a flashcart to play the DS games, and to boot it up to run CFW which allows you to run GBA games without emulation.You are about to get your chance

You need a flashcart for 100% DS game compatibility. You also need the cart for the easiest method of bootstrapping your 3DS initially. The latest R4 has a little toggle switch that switches it between boostrap mode to hack your 3DS, or just normal DS flash cart mode.
Don't see a GBA cart slot on my Switch, so I don't see how. If they are going to be doing the eShop bullshit where you have to buy all your games again, then Nintendo can shove that idea right back up their ass.You are about to get your chance
I don't see a slot for N64 carts, either.You can play almost any game up to N64 on your switch very easily..

That's what my PC is for.CFW + emulators
Aye, the best way to go. Though if you want do some of that while traveling, depends how portable you want to be with handheld consoles or a laptop.That's what my PC is for.
Been playing off and on the afternoon. It’s a good way to spend a sick dayIt's release day. Anyone picking it up? I think I haven't used my Switch in a year, but I think this is enough to dust it off.
CFW + emulators
Links Awakening is one of my favorite games of all time, but my backlog is still too large to feel any rush to go out and re-buy it.
