I finished TOTK. Took me a bit over 60 hours***. I did 76 shrines, got two extra Stamina wheels and 18 hearts. Great game worth a play-through, but not really better than BOTW, imo. Both games are 8/10 for me. Just way too bloated (especially TOTK), and I still don't like the breakable weapons/shields. I hated the Depths too, just drab and dark (and endlessly huge) with that annoying gloom everywhere -- not very enjoyable. Dungeons were pretty good overall, but I didn't like the last one at all, and the lead-up to the final boss was more annoying than fun. No real challenge in the game once you upgrade your armor and cook a bunch of stuff. I did like the shrines in this game, though.

I still strongly prefer the classic Zelda games: Zelda II, A Link to the Past, Ocarina of Time, Link's Awakening, and Wind Waker. All of those are 9/10 or 10/10 in my book.



***In contrast, BOTW took me about 45 hours.

Kayar got over 6 trillion in SDOJ with B-Expert, which is an incredible achievement!

No Hibachi fight in this one, though, so it doesn't overtake his 5.8 trillion Hibachi-ALL score, but I'll include it in parentheses.

I updated the Mushihimesama Cave Matsuri 1.5 PCB estimate to 50 (maybe higher), due to finding an MHN-40003 serial, which means at least 43 were made. I previously estimated 25 ~ 50.

The PCB is shown in this video at the 22:25 mark:

I just finished my RTA/speedrun for this.

My final score was 1,613,400. I will try to achieve the HI-SCORE next time.

Apologies I accidently posted the score for the Black Label version here.  For this version I score 392000. Here is my RTA/speedrun for it. https://www.twitch.tv/bo55cat/video/1796451307

I played through Shadow of the Tomb Raider and Rise of the Tomb Raider recently, both on my PS5. I really enjoyed both games, though I think Rise was better overall (Shadow has better graphics, though).

This month I bought a Switch OLED and Zelda: TOTK, so I've been playing that the past few days. So far, so good. I thought BOTW was a good game, but I prefer the more traditional Zelda games. I don't like playing games like this on my Switch Lite, and I gave my OG Switch to my son, so I had to spring for an OLED so I could mainly play on my monitor.

Finally got over 200mil in MMP with Momo (PCB Version)!  :righton:

202,888,130 - Momo - 1-ALL



I killed the final boss before I could do the gold cancel, costing me a few million. I also missed the first two cancels on that boss. Oh well, maybe next time! Otherwise a pretty good run. 145mil at the end of ST4. A run with full boss cancels and no chain drops would put me at about 210mil.

I did a credit in MMP Ver 1.00 (X360) and improved my Momo score by quite a bit:

188,549,170 - Momo - 1-ALL



I missed the last two cancels on the ST4 boss and the last cancel on the final boss, costing me around 10mil total. Also one chain break that cost me several million!

Pretty close to my best Momo PCB score of 191mil!

Thanks for the info about CV-1000 lithium batteries. :righton:

I think I will just solder the PGM batteries off just in case.

The lithium batteries on CV1000 won't leak but they will obviously expire after a number of years.

The PGM ones definitely need keeping an eye on. A good quality battery like Varta shouldn't have an issue with leakage for a good 10 years or more but I believe they can be removed without issue.
