Then Fi piped up with: “My sensors detect there is a large tree ahead”, or something equally stupid and obvious, and I decided then and there that there was no way I could put up with another 30-odd hours of this. “Finally I’m getting somewhere,” I thought. Who the hell thought she was a good idea? The moment I turned off the game for good was when I finally got to the Great Deku Tree, which totally filled the screen ahead. Oh, and don’t get me started on Fi, your robot-like, sword-based companion. The motion controls make a slightly dull game simply infuriating. And trying to get Link to charge his sword by thrusting it into the air is frankly comical. I remember actually exclaiming “ARGH, this is awful” as I attempted to control my flying bird by wobbling the remote around in the palm of my hand. But worse than that are the motion controls, which are a form of exquisite torture. The tutorial is excruciatingly slow and boring, and it was literally hours before I was let off the leash to actually do some proper adventuring. Good gag, Nintendo, good gag.īut it’s all downhill from there. After decades of Link entering people’s houses and gleefully smashing up their property while they impassively gaze ahead, finally someone has called him out. It starts off amusingly enough, with a great little scene where you smash up pots – as per usual in a Zelda game – only this time one of the other characters tells you off. That news might be shocking to some, but I just did not get on with it AT ALL. So I’ve spent the couple of weeks or so whizzing through the games left on my Wii U backlog – here are my thoughts on the stragglers. So yeah, I now have a Switch! But I also need some space under the telly – not to mention a spare plug socket – which means the Wii U will have to go sooner rather than later. I went into town to trade in some old PS4 games, and I saw the Switch sat there on the shop shelf, and I thought: “Dammit, I’m just going to buy it.” Anyhoo, my noble task just got a bit more urgent, as I’ve ‘accidentally’ bought a Nintendo Switch. I’ve finally gone back to ploughing through the last of my Wii U games (although confusingly for anyone who’s just joined us, most of them are actually Wii games or Virtual Console purchases).
