Nintendo used their time at the Thanksgiving Day Parade to promote Switch 2 and the Super Mario Galaxy Movie.
They were even playing the Gusty Garden Galaxy theme as the balloon went by.

This particular part of the Zelda timeline that started with Breath of the Wild 8 years ago is coming to an end this week.
My biggest hope for the next Fujibayashi directed Zelda, is that it doesn't take place in Hyrule.
Take Link on an adventure somewhere very different.

The decline of third spaces and hangouts, such as malls, video rental places, arcades & skate parks has been a direct result of the rise of convenience and has also been objectively bad for society as a whole. Its not that everyone HAS to socialize, but having no option to without bars is a failing.
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?
