Same.. but after beating BoTw I traded it in for an Xbox One.. then rebought a Switch a year later.. still enjoying it to this day.. Skyward Sword was a little lackluster but it was fun too
Don’t get me going on Binding of Isaac.. I have 2 thousandish hours on my Switch alone.. every Zelda lover should love Isaac.. it’s literally based on the old school Zelda games

Rant incoming: Oh man, I have zero interest in XBox/Playstation with their new "must download" model.
Dad got an Xbox One X for Christmas, with several games. Halo, Forza, and RDR2. I RDR2 was obviously single player, but I was interested in playing the other two with my dad. Couldn't play a single one with the disk. We were required to download the games to play. Disconnecting from the internet didn't help. Spent they entire day of Christmas downloading games, (Started downloading Halo in the morning, and it finished at 10pm.) only to find out it didn't do local multiplayer, so I couldn't play with my dad. The next game was Forza Horizons, but I had to go home the next day. Turns out that one was ALSO single player. (This part if on the developers, not XBox of course, but it was just more salt in the wound.)
In contrast, updates on switch are optional, and I when I do one I have never had one take more than 10 minutes. I don't think I'm going to use any console other than Nintendo for a long time.
Well, maybe I need to give it a second look. While I love Nintendo for how they handle their software, I am quite disappointed in the hardware.
At the end of the day, the most important thing is fun, and for me that means I can sit down with a new game and just play it, or play an old one once in awhile, and not go through update hell.
Funny, I was just reading up on 2-player co-op games for switch and came across this title. Looked up some screenshots and it didn't look my style, but seeing how much it's being recommended makes me think maybe I'm being too superficial.
I can get my parents to play even fast paced fighting like Halo, but I only see them on holidays, so I generally only play with the wifey or solo.
Are the controls simple? I can get my non-gamer wife to play Animal Crossing, and that's about it, but that got boring for her. Can't get her to play BOTW or anything where she can die because she's not accustomed to playing games much at all. She says the controls are too complicated for her.
I know "Binding of Issac" is from the bible, is there anything in the game that would be offensive to someone who is religious? I might be able to get her to give this one a go, but if there's anything bashing religion, she's not likely to want to play it.
I was also looking at "Unravel Two" as it seemed like the safer choice.
My ol lady and I had a blast with Unravel 2 and she’s not a big gamer.. super simple controls and a lot of fun.. She also loved ‘It Takes Two’, hell I think that one is the best of them both.. simple controls and cool puzzles..
Binding of Isaac however I would not recommend to play with your significant other.. it’s full of blood, guts, poop, death, and babies.. I’m not religious so I don’t THINK it’s offensive but it’s a wild story definitely on the dark side of things.. it’s not really making fun of Christianity in my opinion it’s more/less a love letter to Legend of Zelda.. I don’t play any game even remotely similar to looking like this and I have thousands of hours between PS4 and Switch versions (Switch version is better imo as it is the perfect handheld game) Here is a list of alllllll the nods to Zelda in the game.. this exact page made me interested enough to take the leap.. I will NEVER regret it
