I get the impression the sky areas are in addition the ground/map from BotW.
I hope the ground / map is not the same. They had 6 years plus help from Monolith.
We need more information.

Now, this writer had absolutely no doubt about the pronunciation - just ask anyone - but Nintendo has now confirmed for definite, just in case you're still not 100% on the matter. The news comes via Eurogamer, and yes, as most of us suspected, the pronunciation is "tears" - as in crying tears (much like the tears you're no doubt shedding having to read yet another article on that ruddy title... grumble...).

By what metric?
Sales.
In Japan, Splatoon 3 sold more copies in 3 days than BotW has sold since its release in 2017. Or Odyssey has sold since its release in 2017.

I have a 4 day conference the week after the new Mario+Rabbids game releases. Looking forward to some time with the Switch in airports.

Will do! I had to turn off the motion controls for aiming. "Pro" players swear they make things easier/more accurate, but it was really throwing me off.

I've barely played it, unfortunately. It seems pretty solid so far.

Skyward Sword is $30 at Target. Time to scoop it up, I think.

I’ve been roped in to playing some Pokemon Brilliant Diamond because my kids can’t read most of the text.

I don’t mind it so much
