What an amazing day...

Let's see what this log is all about from the Herofox, shall we? *Opens journal*
I went to the Nintendo Switch Premier today and got to play plenty of new games! You can see more on my Twitter but I might upload it here too! https://twitter.com/maxthewicked100
The games I didn't get pictures of, I'll mention here:
Splatoon 2: As someone who didn't enjoy the matchmaking of Splatoon 1, but loved the single player content, I can happily say that 2 was a fun multiplayer game (even if I lost as usual ^^;) I just hope someone fixes the matchmaking who blood will be shed.
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe: What can I say? Its Mario Kart 8...BUT BETTER. For starters, it can play on a tiny tablet and still look and control beautifully and then there's the addition of Inklings as characters and the return of having 2 items at once, Bowser Jr, King Boo and Battle arenas! Definitely still fun to play even if you got it on Wii U.
The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild: Now...This was a very close call. This was easily the most packed and anticipated game in the premier. There was a chance I wasn't gonna be able to play this but despite having less time, I DID and skipping all dialogue and story (which is okay because I watched it thanks to other people playing) and my god...Its beyond incredible. You can explore to your hearts content! There is so much to collect, explore and just stand still and take in. Its a beautiful game and even on a little tablet its pretty. But without a doubt, this looks like its gonna be a lot harder unlike other Zelda games (since I saw a good few people get game overs even myself). For instance, there was no heart pieces or anything like that and HEARTS ARE NO LONGER A COLLECTIBLE ITEM. Instead, in order to get your health back, you can find or cook food like apples, meat, mushrooms and loads more probably and I do know that by cooking, you can temporary extra health. Speaking of loot, you can collect weapons that aren't even the master sword like an axe, branch, torch or any other kind of swing-able or ranged weapon. In total, this game is a good sole reason to buy the Switch.
Overall report about the console: The controls are first may look bad, but they're shockingly easy to control and as small as they are, anyone can use it with no issues. The HD rumble is also very accurate and satisfying. 1-2 Switch proved that with a minigame called Safe Crack where you move the dial of a safe while you try to feel for any pulse of a rumble and then hold it so you get a point and then do it 2 more times to win.
In conclusion, I'll be getting the Switch for Christmas but right off the bat, its better than Wii U!
