I'm including anything only available on other Nintendo systems as exclusive for this.

I've got a $50 eShop card I figure I should spend before gold points go away.

I have BotW. It was alright, but it didn't excite me enough to get TotK unless it's on a deep discount.

I've also already got Mario Odyssey and Metroid Prime Remastered. I have a handful of other games but they're not Switch exclusive afaik.

I'm mostly using my Steam deck for handheld these days, so I'd rather not get anything non-exclusive on the Switch right now.

TOTK makes BOTW look like a simple tech demo. I wasn't very whelmed with BOTW, either, but I am glad I checked out TOTK because it is, IMO, the best exclusive on the system.

I just got totk for $20 black Friday a few months ago. I got through the first two or three minor dungeons and it didn't really grab me. How far do I have to go before it becomes addicting?

I do agree that TotK was a better game than BotW, though I can also see how someone who may not love the BotW model wouldn't be enamored with TotK either.
