The new legend of Zelda is a toy box of delights
I only peripherally pay attention to games, but is my impression right that Nintendo is just a brilliantly innovative company, light years ahead of any other (major) gaming developer?<p>Off the top of my head, I see the Wii, Pokemon Go, and now this.<p>In addition to being innovative, they seem focused on artistry, creativity, and positive experiences for their customers. Wii in many ways encouraged collaboration and activity, playing with others (i.e., rather than alone with pizza all night long); it focused on that over flashy graphics and shock-and-gore. Pokemon Go got people out on their feet, interacting, exploring and engaging with their towns, creatively rather than garishly introduced them to the possibilities of new tech (AR), and was fun but not violent.<p>Perhaps that&#x27;s already Nintendo&#x27;s reputation; I don&#x27;t know. But they don&#x27;t get enough attention and praise IMHO. They seem to me to be like the Pixar or Apple of games, or better.
