Had to pause with the chickens
HAHAHAHA
New Nintendo has to have a /gimmick/ or a /new thing/ for their "new stuff" - I would say this started around the N64 but really game cube era. At least in their mainline stuff.
Whoever posted the history video of Twilight Princess explains it and Nintendo's hubiris on this. Yeah, they /generally/ do knock it out of the park - but at the same time we do not get new stuff as often as they could.
Look at BoTW to ToTK - a direct sequel that is rare, but even then they could not make plots work together because the /had to make it a high % DIFFERENT/ - The stupid sky things where not enough, the stupid depths were not enough - we could not expand upon the story from BoTW, or continue the setup they gave at the end of the DLC, no no, we have to do the stupid GO BACK AND BACK AND BACK to explain stuff because ALL NEW. They could have added the building stuff to the sheika tech - had the robbie and the pura lady develop it or whater and fleshed out and explained that calamity ganon was just an aspect of ganon and there are more - it turns out to be 3 total from back when Ganon had the triforce in X-game (people would love the connection back to whatever random zelda you choose) Make BoTW into a trilogy, have it re discovering the triforce etc. because neither BoTW or ToTK really talked about it - but no.. we have to reinvent the origins of the world / kingdom again because stupid skyward sword was not bastardized enough.

Nintendo somehow patented flying mounts a couple months ago. And the patent says it’s retroactive into the past lol.
I’d love to see them try something on Sony and lose money but they won’t, they only go after small guys.

That patent hasn't been granted, and is unlikely to be as there's prior art in basically every 3d game predating the application date of May 2024. If it is somehow granted there's a 0% chance it's upheld. (Obviously there are valid concerns of barratry.)

The new Zelda is growing on me, i am not really a super fan of puzzle. But the freedom per say of being puzzle based allows is great.
The music is really good, that or the lack of music in the last 2 games makes it noticeable
Also no spoiler spoiler- its very much the LttP world and the music even is based on it.
Also I find it odd that even this game shy away from the tri force. I am wondering if there is some big plan for a big tri force rennesance game…. But know Nintendo and their story telling… no

Makes me wonder why Temtem didn't get the "Copyright Treatment" that Palworld did:
Even exists on the nintendo switch:
Temtem for Nintendo Switch - Nintendo Official Site
Buy Temtem and shop other great Nintendo products online at the official My Nintendo Store.
www.nintendo.com
I'm guessing it all has to do with how much money Palworld made.

Sorry ya, question still stands, why does this game that has more elements pulled from Pokemon and exists on the nintendo store get a pass and palworld which can really be best described as a "Fan Creation" get targeted? Just seems odd.
