The Tears of the Kingdom have fallen | Kaser Focus

Happy Zelda launch day, everyone! I hope you all enjoy your time with the latest Nintendo title, and I’ll check in with all of you next week after we’ve all had a chance to indulge in it over the weekend. And hopefully none of you got spoiled by that leak that happened last week. It feels that this whole week has been a holding pattern, waiting for Tears of the Kingdom to drop — but we’ve still had an interesting week anyway.

Nintendo and Electronic Arts both posted their financial earnings reports this week. While Electronic Arts’ numbers appear to be stable — though not stable enough to spare layoffs earlier this year — Nintendo’s Switch sales are slipping. If the report is anything to go by, the company has anticipated this and has prepared accordingly. I have the feeling we’re not going to see that oft-rumored Switch follow-up any time soon.
