    The Nintendo Switch when it came out. I was super hyped and somehow the console even exceeded my expectations.

    Playing Breath of the Wild for the first time was amazing and even after 6 years the console still feels modern to me.

      Yep, every time someone mentions how long it’s been out, it surprises me again. It still ‘Nintendo’s brand new console’ to me.

        I feel you. The PS3 is still “last generation” to me and a Core 2 Duo still feels like a powerful new processor.

      The concept feels modern, but I wish they made a second Gen model of the joycons by now.

        Or a second gen model of the Switch. I was really hoping they’d announce something at the direct today but nope!

          Yeah it’s about time for that haha, I’d guess we’re still 2 years out or so. I think Covid still has a lot of stuff on delay for a year or three past when one might expect.

      And then Tears of the Kingdom in turn lived up to the hype set for it. So great

      To add to that, I’d also say a lot of games on the console lived up to the hype. Mario Odyssey, Metroid Dread, and of course both Zeldas are some of the best games of the past few years.
