Nintendo’s having a blockbuster year. “The Super Mario Bros. Movie” made more than $1 billion last month. This Friday, the company releases the hotly anticipated “The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.”
For the Washington Post’s Gene Park, the new game is well worth the six-year wait.
“I think anyone who enjoyed the game ‘Breath of the Wild’ is going to absolutely love this one,” Park says.

..."The story got tuned up as well. With spare dialogue and infrequent cutscenes, “Breath of the Wild” let its majestic world speak for itself. The sequel adds considerably more narrative, complete with side adventures.
“There’s even a quest where Link becomes a print journalist — there’s a whole newspaper company there.” Park says. “Part of your assignment is to find Princess Zelda.”

Zelda might be missing in “Tears of the Kingdom,” but Nintendo certainly doesn’t lack ambition.
“I think it’s safe to say that Nintendo is slowly approaching a Disney level in terms of being a multimedia company,” says Park.
But while it might enjoy success at the box office and in its theme parks, “Tears of the Kingdom” proves that the company still knows how to make games that keep people coming back to Hyrule."
