Octopath is tearing up the sales charts and my biggest regret is that I didn't see it coming.  I could tell Zelda BotW was going to be the biggest Zelda ever just from the E3 2016 footage, but Octopath was just not on my radar.  Now I have to wait to get a copy.  Ah well.

The cool thing is how much the Switch is turning into a device for old school gamers.  BotW really is a game for old schoolers like myself, but we've also got Sonic Mania, Street Fighter, Bomberman, Puyo Puyo Tetris, Crash Bandicoot, and now Octopath.  Hopefully these third parties will get a clue and make more Switch games just for us old schoolers.
