Via their E3 site, Nintendo has released a few more details about Breath of the Wild’s first expansion pack, set to release on June 30, 2017. The detail that will draw a sigh of relief from anyone who has pumped dozens of hours into the game is the fact that should you decide to begin a new…
When the NX was revealed as the Nintendo Switch back in October it featured the beloved RPG The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim — but neither Nintendo nor Bethesda would officially confirm the game was coming to the console.

Looking for a new way to listen to some old classics? Switched On SNES is re-imagining 16-bit era music using analog synthesizers and drum machines.

A new day brings a new, hilarious aspect of Breath of the Wild to the surface. This time it’s an honest-to-goodness glitch rather than some physics fun, and it offers you a view you may not have yet seen in the game. Swiffy22 recently discovered that if Link gets knocked back into Lake Floria with the helping hand (boulder?)…
Jammy likes to cook, and over on his YouTube channel he’s been taking inspiration from Breath of the Wild’s many recipes; bringing them to life and sharing how you, too, can enjoy some of Link’s favorite dishes.
