Nintendo has confirmed that The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild will not support dual audio (EX: English subtitles/UI and Japanese voice-overs), news that has been met with immediate disappointment.
NE: "We're looking at every single Nintendo franchise on Switch and evaluating how they grew and changed during the Switch's life cycle."
The composer took to Twitter to share that he actually stepped back from the position in July 2023, though this is the first time he has publicly acknowledged it.
Polygon: "To get back to the way Ocarina made us feel, it was necessary to reject almost everything about it."
The feeling this game gave me the first time i had my hands on it is indescribable.. i still get the chill from that day..
botw is like a spin off of the series.. it’s fun but with many flaws and the most important which is Zelda formula isn’t there..
I can't even remember how many times I played through OoT, I finished that game, and collected everything so many times.
I generally agree with the author here. However, if I had to point out a single game as the 'anti-Breath of the Wild,' that would be Majora's Mask. Pretty much everything in that game is interconnected, relies on something that the player must have done previously, is timed, and can be considered a puzzle in itself.
but still considered the best of the seties.
i would have liked botw to be more like ocarina.
25 years from today whatever Zelda is out people would too be looking fondly at Breath of the Wild.
Ah the more simple times of the 2020s.
F u Nintendo... I cant. belive this crap .
So all your western fans get a gimped game.... What are those board members thinking singing off on this shite .
The last time i bought anything Nintendo. Was the n64 .... And everything before it.... I don't remember Nintendo being this shite .... Definitely not the Nintendo I remember.
well that's a shame. Here's hoping Nintendo can release an update somehow to correct that since the Japanese voices are all on the cart. Can't be that hard to be able to pick the audio track and the subtitles track separately.
dang. I guess imma have to deal with Zelda's English Voice Actor terrible performance with Zelda's crying scene.
I always try and play Japanese games in it's original language. Just something so cringe worthy when playing with English voices.
Lot of members of the sub master race on here....
