I grew up with the N64 and OoT. I quit console gaming after the GameCube, having loved WW, only to return to Nintendo for a year or so when the Switch came out. I was still able to “plug ‘n’ play” shit back then. I don’t own any consoles at the moment. I would like to purchase the Switch 2 in order to play the remake of OoT and then, probably, just sell it. No, I do not have friends to borrow shit from.
What should I expect privacy wise? Do I need to create an account, send Nintendo a saliva, urine and hair sample in addition to a voice sample and image and age verification? Or can I just buy the console, buy the cartridge and play and be happy?
How about replaying old OoT?
Replayed it on the 3DS two years ago. Then I sold my old consoles, keeping only the GBA SP. 🫠
A abuse relationship.
You can just create a local profile on the switch and not even connect it to the internet. No online services for OoT means it won’t require a connection.
But you also won’t get patches and Nintendo products aren’t as well tested before release as they used to be, unfortunately. Not that they were ever bug-free, but it is a norm now to release an unfinished product.
I would much rather play a Nintendo game with no option for a day one patch than anything from literally all other AAA devs. At least I would know the game will actually run.
Yeah, just wanted to mention since although there’s probably not game breaking bugs, there might be major annoyances.
Nice!!! Thanks! 😊
If there are any bugs, you’d have to turn the wifi on to update it, obviously. But as long as you’re playing a singleplayer / offline game, you can totally play on Switch 2 without internet. I tested this with a fresh copy of Splatoon Raiders.
