Baten Kaitos and Metroid Prime Remaster... Wow.
Really hoping to pre-order that Collector's Edition of Tears of the Kingdom. Wish I knew when and where I could do that.
EDIT: Got both the CE & the Amiibo pre-ordered. Can't wait for this game!

When I worked at TRU it was on one of the demo stations. Looked cool but I just never had the chance before the Nintendo rep came through and changed it out again.

So for whatever reason, I couldn't get into Breath of the Wild as my wife did. We picked up our Switch in the fall of 2020, so we've only had about a good two and half-ish years with the system I just caught all the praise and hype for the game from afar as truthfully — the game I wanted to play the most was Super Mario Odyssey.
I just couldn't sink my teeth into BOTW so all the hype for Tears of the Kingdom kind of did nothing for me at first ... but I just kept thinking about the game.
I had like $50 in store credit from last holiday, so I bit the bullet and ended up getting TOTK and oh my god, am I in love with this. I must not have had the patience for BOTW at the time as I'm loving my time with TOTK now and my wife is really enjoying it as well. She put about 70ish hours into BOTW yet never got around to completing it as she made the mistake of restarting and then just fell off.
This is one that we're both going to try and complete as much as we can. Like your post mentions, it's crazy how her and I are having almost two completely different experiences with the game. I'm so thankful I jumped into this one.
on the 12th
Been using Kamek with the new tracks. I like them, fun. Squeaky Clean Sprint has a lot to explore...
Sometimes I wish I could turn off my ability to shop online after a certain hour. I definitely make more impulse purchases later at night. I just bought a GameCube on eBay. I gave mine away several years ago and have been regretting it lately.
don't feel so bad. I've been on a 2DS kick, purchased 3 different 2DS's, and a 2DS XL. It's crazy to see how much they've gone up in value. the funny thing is I just sold my collection last year/year before, before the prices spiked.
Started playing Hot Wheel Unleashed (Game of the Year edition)...
Diggin' it... more depth to the maps/tracks and upgrades than I was expecting, so I'll need to explore more of that.
A bit floaty on the physics but I can work with that.
Pikmin 4: maybe my game of the year
I dl the demo and hope to get to it this week
I'm sorry, how do you pronounce Lakitu? LAH-key-two? I've always heard it pronounced as Leh-KEY-two. The caps indicate the stress, if I recall from primary school?
edit: multiplayer is at 11:20 and, if you ever played the 4-player Mario games on the Wii/U you'd know that they are horrible multi games because your character cannot occupy the same space so you get very frustrated very easily. This one gets rid of that, woo!
and anyone can ride a Yoshi, even another Yoshi? frickin sweet. The elephant riding the Yoshi was hilarious.

I already pre-ordered Wonder for physical...I do love 2d Mario games.
hmmmmmm.... F-Zero 99
That direct had some real weird choices. Tomb Raider 1/2/3? Though it was funny that the HD version looks like what your memory says the game looked like.
I'm looking forward to that Atlus RPGs, as well as that spiritual successor to Suikoden (and impatiently waiting for the Suikoden 1+2 ports ) . wasn't really anything else that stood out to me in the direct but that's fine.
Paper Mario Thousand Year Door update for the Switch is pretty sweet. The GameCube version is pretty expensive these days.
