“Right now our highest priority is to create an interesting game, first and foremost. Sometimes that means not worrying about the joints not lining up perfectly, which is inevitable anyway. Excluding really obvious, big breaks in continuity, we ignore the little inconsistencies.” —Shigeru Miyamoto In an interview with Japanese gaming magazine Famimaga 64 back in August 1996, game developer Shigeru Miyamoto was asked about upcoming titles for the recently launched Nintendo 64 system.

Arguably, this title improves upon nearly every aspect of its predecessor, Breath of the Wild, and a key improvement has got to be the music as there is a lot more quality in the newest game.
