After leaving fans starving for more, Nintendo and Mihoyo released a gourmet selection of new games and updates, including a long-awaited announcement about Breath of the Wild 2 at E3 and Genshin Impact 1.6’s release. Thanks for the food, guys. But before you RPG fans dig in, here are some spicy memes to whet your appetite.
1. We get it, Fi
Forget Demise and Ghirahim, the REAL antagonist of Skyward Sword is the game’s motion controls. With Skyward Sword HD coming to the Nintendo Switch on 16 July, fans have been memeing about a possible repeat of their greatest nightmares. Nintendo better come through.
2. Zelda, where you at?
Fans of The Legend of Zelda want one thing, and one thing only: gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss Zelda. And a playable one at that too. But in the latest BOTW 2 trailer, with Zelda apparently falling into the depths of hell itself and the little screen-time she has, fans might have to kiss their dreams goodbye.
3. Never-before-seen pyro DPS
That feeling when bombs named Floaty Spody and Hot Pod do more crit damage than your main DPS. My whole life is a lie.
4. …I can explain
Ever wanted to play The Sims while…not playing The Sims? Genshin 1.6’s got you covered with their latest major feature that allows players to invite characters into their house. And, uh, pretend you didn’t see that one room with four beautiful women in it.
5. I’ll have one of each, please!
I mean, you can never have too many games, right? Just shut up and take my money!
