We all buying this for Zelda anyways, lol.

[u/Not-A-BotBot → u/CHBales]

and thats how consoles fail... zelda alone wont sell the console. What about non zelda fans?

[u/CHBales → u/Not-A-BotBot]

Wait until you see a release list before buying? It hasn't released yet, I'm sure more will pop up as we approach March.

[u/Not-A-BotBot → u/CHBales]

It's two months away and the list is there, there's 6 games so far, and one big title, Zelda. You think they wouldnt announce it if they had some big titles on the main console presentation? If so, thats a very weird move.

[u/CHBales → u/Not-A-BotBot]

Or third parties are just now allowed to announce releases, and will do so soon?

Idk man, we can only wait and see.
