I guess it’s a good time to get Candence of Hyrule. After all, I own every other Zelda game.
Hey mynintendonews team! First of all, thanks for all the hard work you put in with this website. I visit it just about everyday, and wanted to let you know I really appreciate you all!
That said, can you please go back to the old layout? It’s pretty rough navigating the site (especially the home page) on a desktop browser now.
Thanks for the feedback can you explain “rough” do you mean because it is scrolling rather than magazine style format?
Thanks for the reply! Yes, exactly that. Specifically that each article “header” takes up more than the whole window vertically, so it’s just a LOT of scrolling to be able to see everything I haven’t read yet. Previously, with the rows of 3, I could glance over it all a lot quicker to see what news I had missed.
I’m glad you changed it back. It added a lot of extra, unnecessary browsing time just from having to scroll through headlines

This must be why A Plague Tale: Innocence is being discounted (again) as this is the 3rd time in just a couple of months now. *checks with the website for PS Store* Yep. Unfortunately, they only got the deals up til the 16th of this month so theirs will end 2 days before Ninty’s.
