🇬🇧 The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time launch in the UK • Biggest physical game launch of 2026 • 2nd biggest Zelda launch (retail) • 35% bigger than Zelda BOTW launch (Switch + Wii U) • About half of Zelda TOTK first week
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake is the second biggest Zelda launch in UK history, beating Breath of the Wild (physical sales only). It is easily the biggest physical game launch in 2026 (so far) substack.com/@christopherdri…

Nintendo pulls this off with $40M and will make around Over a Billion dollars in sales. On a tablet handheld that barely uses 15 Watts of power. Let’s hope the rest of the industry takes notes. Instead of wasting $300-400 M USD and firing people.
🚨تطوير لعبة Zelda Ocarina Of Time استغرق 3 سنوات فقط 🔹بحسب اونوما ، تطوير لعبة Ocarina of Time بدأ بعد الانتهاء من تطوير Tears Of Kingdom و بمشاركة من 3 استديوهات تطوير الخاصة بنينتندو 🔹قرابة 200 موظف عملوا على اللعبة لمدة 3 سنوات 🔹ميزانية تطوير اللعبة بحدود 40 مليون دولار فقط🤯

The rest of the industry won't dog. Nintendo even had to check themselves a few generations back. They saw the trap of the whole "most powerful console ever" BS and how it was a money pit. Their ideology is to create fun and addicting games. Microsoft and Sony are still trying to create powerhouses because they know third-party developers are lazy and don't want to optimize their shit. And also those keywords look good to investors. Now their next consoles are going to be around 2k. Switch 3 probably going to be literally half the the price. Nintendo won before any of this shit started.

The new Stellar Blade Nintendo Switch commercial is peak gaming. IGN: 4/10. “It’s not realistic unlike Dragon Age: The Veilguard”

Ferngully: The Last Rainforest is now airing on #metvtoons for the very first time. This movie takes me back to my 90's childhood. 🙂

The Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s was built on this premise. It had nothing to do with respectability politics, or christianity. And the participants, Black folk and our allies, were trained this way. All of them. Black, Jewish, and White. 🙏🏿
