Okay, so here we go. The whole Nintendo Switch 2 launch thing—madness, right? It’s like when you rearrange your living room and suddenly all your furniture feels new again. Well, in this case, it’s old games getting a new spotlight. You know, like rerunning your favorite series.
Anyway, so Breath of the Wild—yeah, that gem from 2017? Suddenly, it’s strutting like it owns 2025. I mean, who knew something from eight years ago would be headlining again? It’s like music from your high school days popping back on the charts.
But, oh wait, forgot to mention—they’ve jazzed it up for the Switch 2. Yep, shiny new upgrades and all, thanks to the console’s extra juice. Not just Breath of the Wild, either. Its sequel, Tears of the Kingdom, got the same glow-up—though, word of warning, your wallet might feel lighter since these are paid updates. Seriously, who needs spare cash anyway, right?
And get this—here’s the kicker—the darn thing’s topping charts again! Breath of the Wild now rubs shoulders with 2025’s freshest like “Clair Obscur: Expedition 33.” They’re both chilling at the top with a cool 93 MetaCritic score. And poor Blue Prince, just a point behind. Imagine putting out something new, only to be overshadowed by a blast from the past. Life, huh?
Oh, and big changes mean some games get the boot. The Hundred Line? Yeah, see ya later—knocked out of the top 20. And with Tears of the Kingdom waiting in the wings for its grand Switch 2 entrance, bet there’s more reshuffling to come. It scored a 94, so brace yourself.
You might be eyeing those Zelda upgrades if you’ve snagged a Switch 2. And in case your memory’s like mine—constantly MIA—check out the Breath of the Wild guides. Or, you might be a newbie in which case, welcome! Jump in with both feet, because these guides could be your new best friends.
So yeah, that’s it. Can somebody pass the popcorn?
