Whoa this game immediately reminds me of Zelda 3 (A Link to the Past). I know I'm not the only one to notice that, right? I'm happy that the Switch is doing well so far. Now we just need a Vocaloid game for it... <_<

Ah, finally I know what the gameplay is like. (This has been low-priority, so I never really seeked it out.) I remember the previous coverage of this game on this site didn't say what the gameplay was like.

April 27th is pretty short notice though. Also two days after Puyo Puyo Tetris and one day before Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. It's going to get completely overshadowed, though I take it the reallydedicated got it in Japanese already.

Interesting that they show off that this is an easy game too. I guess people are getting burned out by gruelingly difficult games.

It's super cheap though, so being sandwiched between 2 higher profile releases during a week where the Switch is getting restocked might actually be beneficial, attracting both new and current Switch owners looking to pad out their library.

People often talk of smaller games getting drowned out by bigger ones, but it's also possible for them to piggyback off of them. My life has been consumed by Breath of the Wild, but I also wound up picking up games like Snipperclips and later VOEZ as palate cleansers.
