When you think about the type of gameplay featured in The Legend of Zelda’s mainline titles, three types should come to mind. First there’s 2D, which was obviously established at the very start and has continued into Echoes of Wisdom. Then there’s the traditional 3D, dungeon-focused games fans came to know following the launch of Ocarina of Time. Now more recently, Nintendo has put out the “open air” entries – essentially Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom – which look to be the focus going forward.
For Zelda games, which style do you prefer? Are you a purist that appreciates the 2D titles more than anything else? Perhaps you’d like to see Nintendo revisit the traditional 3D style? Or maybe you’ve only started to come on board since Breath of the Wild. No matter the case, let us know in the comments.
A good chunk of gameplay has come through for Critter Cafe. Those interested in the Nintendo Switch title can check out a half hour of footage.

Today, we’re looking at all the unlucky Pokemon who have not been obtainable in any main series Nintendo Switch games.
The Nintendo Switch has seen two generations of Pokemon so far – three if you count the Let’s Go games. We’ve got the eighth generation, which includes Sword and Shield, Legends: Arceus, and Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. And then there’s the ninth generation, which so far only includes Scarlet and Violet but will eventually include Legends: Z-A when it releases in 2025. With all those different games, though, there are still quite a few Pokemon that haven’t been usable in any new main series titles. To clarify what that means – today, we’re going to go over every Pokemon that has not appeared in Sword, Shield, Legends: Arceus, Scarlet, or Violet. Since Let’s Go, Pikachu and Eevee and Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl are remakes, we aren’t counting them for this list even though they are technically main series games. One final note before we begin – The Pokemon Company has clarified that the Legends games do in fact count as main series.
For the most part, the Mario & Luigi series fell dormant after the release of Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam. Sure, we got remakes of Superstar Saga and eventually Bowser’s Inside Story on Nintendo 3DS – but for the longest time, there were no new entries at all. Then AlphaDream closed its doors after the somewhat expected failure of the Bowser’s Inside Story remake, which seemingly sealed the deal on the fate of this franchise. To everyone’s surprise, however, Mario & Luigi: Brothership was revealed at this year’s summer Nintendo Direct, and it’s developed by Acquire, the team behind Octopath Traveler. And with this new game on the horizon, we figure it’s as good a time as any to take a look at the rest of the Mario & Luigi series and how each of them holds up today.
