Into the wilderness: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild invites players to scale an expansive kingdom.

Two launch-day releases have become de facto standard bearers for the Nintendo Switch, the new home and portable games console hybrid, and reaction to 1-2-Switch and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild could hardly be more different.

Even before the Nintendo Switch was revealed, Breath of the Wild was so central to Nintendo's vision that it was the focus of a day-long showcase at the Electronic Entertainment Expo, mid-2016.
