So I've never played Zelda games...

For my birthday this year I got a Switch and Zelda: Breath of the Wild. I've never played Zelda games, and I was planning on streaming my way through the game. My question is, do I just jump right in with BOTW, or do I have to start with a prior game in the series?

You can jump right into BOTW. There are some callbacks, but you won't be lost.

Also, all the other Zelda games are still worth playing today, should you want to go back and do so. But it's not necessary in order to enjoy the new title.

If you have Switch Online you'll have access to NES and SNES virtual console games so you can play Zelda 1, 2, and A Link to the Past if you feel like it. Link to the Past has always been my favourite of those I've played in the series so I'd recommend it if you enjoy BotW. For an action RPG the Zelda series has always been fairly light on the story. Link is the hero. Zelda is the princess. Ganon is the villian. Usual hero/villian/princess hijinks ensue but you have a shield and sword this time instead of mushrooms.

I do still own an NES and have wanted to buy the original Zelda to have/play. I think I'll go through a couple of the originals first, it sounds like fun.

I've never owned a single piece of Nintendo equipment.

Your loss, kind sir.

Ocarina of Time is one of the greatest games ever. I say this as I also own a NES, a SNES, and of course a N64.

Ocarina of Time is the best. I also love Majoras Mask but that game is an acquired taste.

Wasn’t a fan of Breath of the Wild but it sold bucket loads and the in-thing seems to be open world games.

The prejudice against gambling is connected with the opinion that its outcome depends solely on luck. In fact, there are games in which a player's skills are essential. Playing poker is no easier than speculating on stocks, and blackjack requires outstanding math skills and observation. Bankroll management is another skill that any player should master, even one who prefers to play on slot machines, a large selection of which online-pokies-au.com/ registration offers. So it's not such a frivolous pastime. But in lotteries, nothing depends on the player. For some reason, no one is in a hurry to anathematize lotteries because the organization of lotteries is a state monopoly.

I hope you had an amazing time on your Zelda journey! And also, can someone suggest a place to find CS2 skins?
