There's been official map measurements that say otherwise. XCX is 404 km^2, while Zelda is around 370 km^2.

In XCX you run faster, and using Skells flying and driving around Mira makes the world feel smaller.  You'll feel the world is much bigger in Zelda because you move slower compared to XCX. Even wandering on a horse is slower than driving around with a Skell

Its factually smaller than XCX. Thats all that matters. Plus there will probably be some warp feature in Zelda that will make your wandering point mute anyways.

But its quite amazing a Zelda map is going to be that big, but if its just big and mostly empty its going to be quite annoying to manually travel over. The game sounds great but im going to need more incentives than a big Zelda map to buy a Nintendo Switch Day 1.

It looks like there's going to be a lot of stuff to discover. There's at least going to be plenty of stables around the world where people gather and where you can get the horses you've tamed and registered. I don't think they're going to make the mistakes of previous zelda games where there's nothing in the open world areas.

And not to mention the hundreds of dungeons scattered everywhere.

cause i would aminly get Paper Mario Thousand Year Old Door

Super Mario Sunshine

etc

Well Super Mario Sunshine is one of the rumored games to launch on the Virtual Console, so you'll probably get that. I'm also hoping Fire Emblem Path of Radiance gets a VC release along with Radiant Dawn, seeing how we're getting so many FE games in the next 2 years.

I really doubt that for anyone who only buys Nintendo games that they would even care about skyrim tbh, and for anyone who does care about skyrim they probably have a Pc, PS4 or Xbone so why buy it for the switch?

let me know if im misinformed or wrong about it.

Oh that is lovely.

People complain about Nintendo's lack of third party support and then when Nintendo does get them, people do not care. LOL

I might get the Switch for the new Mario and third party support. It looks incredible. I also like it's portability functionality.

I'm just a little disappointed that they still haven't given up on motion controls.

But there are people that like motion controls

I wasn't complaining about them have 3rd party support im glad they got it, im just stating that skyrim on the switch isn't something to be hyped about. pc xbox one have skyrim and mods for it, ps4 and pc have good graphics for it, Nintendo switch is just really late on it. im sure most people who buy the switch either have skyrim on a different platform or they arnt interested. of course most of this is my opinion, so I ask if im misinformed on what I said let me know.

Mobility. People are excited about the mobility with Skyrim more than anything.

I generally prefer the PC but if i decide to buy a current console, it will be the nintendo switch. the Xbone and ps4 are just computers with a locked up environment and no upgrades. it has some minor advantages but those aren't things that i value from a gaming device...meanwhile the switch actually offers me more than that. The things the nintendo switch has to offer are more valuable to me than what any other console offers. portability, interesting exclusives, etc

So here's my thoughts on the Switch. As a handheld (What it actually is) it's superb. As a console (What they're claiming it is) It's a piece of garbage.

From my perspective Nintendo has given up on consoles and is now company that makes portable devices but they're marketing campaigns are spinning it like that's not the case.

So, let me get this straight, the Nintendo Switch is both a handheld device and video game console.  Wow, that's something you don't see everyday.

Except it isn't. They want you to think that because they can't admit they that they can't make good consoles anymore.

The sad thing though is if they market it as a console I have to criticize it as one because as I said above the biggest game it has is a 2011 release which means it has no upgrades from the Wii U.

Funny, IMO the last time Nintendo made good consoles were the Gamecube and Wii (IMO at least).
