IGN has spent well over 200 hours playing The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, and we've been taking screenshots of our favourite moments throughout our adventures.

Here are 36 images from our time playing, including some at the end that may contain content you haven't seen before. There's a big image saying 'spoiler' before you get to any vaguely spoiler-y content, so stop there if you don't want to see more.

That said, this is a game that has a lot of value in self-discovery, so if you want to skip this slideshow so you can experience everything fresh, we totally get it. Click right to see all the images:

If you happen to take some awesome screenshots during your adventures in Breath of the Wild, feel free to share them with us on Twitter or Facebook. In the mean time, be sure to check out IGN's review of the game.

Nintendo has released a troubleshooting guide for people experiencing problems with their Joy-Cons.

The official Nintendo support page is aimed at Switch owners whose Joy-Cons are "not responding" or "responding incorrectly."

Many reviewers testing out the Switch before launch complained of problems with the left Joy-Con dropping out during game play. We had the same problem and noted it in our Nintendo Switch review, having it happen "relatively often" during play.

Among the steps are making sure the Switch has the latest system update, but also checking for other sources of interference like wireless headsets or even microwave ovens. Also, don't put it near an aquarium. That's a suggestion.

Despite Amazon's preorders for Nintendo Switch offering a day-one delivery, a number of Amazon users, including some IGN staff, have still not received their consoles or seen their systems even ship. Some have also reported that their ship date has been moved.

Multiple IGN staffers have Amazon orders that still say Switch systems will arrive today, however the progress is stalled at "shipping soon" with no tracking or shipment information available. Several IGN staff members have also had their orders from Amazon fulfilled.

Shuler Donner went on to note that while Professor X and Magneto are "always essential" to the X-Men universe, "there are other stories to tell."
