@kitosan The universe is celebrating the anniversary of BotW.

[Zelda Universe @ZeldaUniverse]

🎉 HAPPY 40TH ANNIVERSARY 🎉

The Legend of Zelda on the Famicom Disk System first released in Japan on this day, 40 years ago!! (February 21, 1986)

@BobTehbuilde @kitosan I suppose saying "The games got better" didn't portray my thought accurately.

[Stephen Root @Stepghad]

@BobTehbuilde @kitosan 1/2 I think you might misinterpret my perspective. The question is very vague. I see it as which title would I retire from my library if I had to. I have the most fond memories with OoT, but I've also completed it more times than the others. I see the OoT influence

[Stephen Root @Stepghad]

@Crossontwt @kitosan 100% and that's part of the reason why I interpreted the question the way I did. If I had to remove one title from my library, it'd be OoT. I've played OoT so many times and have so many memories of it. The influence is clear in the following titles.

[Stephen Root @Stepghad]

@BobTehbuilde @kitosan 2/2 in all the following titles.

@NintendoAmerica Oblivion!!

[Stephen Root @Stepghad]

@NinWire Rebirth, Oblivion and the Resident Evils (counting then as one since you can get them in a bundle 😏)

[Stephen Root @Stepghad]

So stoked to be able to explore Cyrodiil on the go!

Samus. That’s it, that’s the post.

@thetruebowser That defense is fun to watch!

[Seattle Mariners @Mariners]

The most wholesome gift 🥹

@jrodshow44 and @NintendoAmerica teamed up to surprise five-and-a-half-year-old Quinn, a devoted Mariners fan, with a Nintendo Switch 2 and an unforgettable visit from Julio himself! #NintendoPartner

@AndreSegers Every time I start up the game, I listen to full title track before going in to play 😅
