  "account": "The Legend of Zelda series, one of the most iconic video game franchises of all time, has been a staple on the Nintendo Switch since its inception in 2017. The series, which follows the adventures of Princess Zelda and Link as they battle the evil Ganon to save the realm of Hyrule, has seen a significant boost in popularity with the release of landmark titles such as Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.\n\nTo date, five Zelda games, three Hyrule Warriors games, and one spin-off game have been released exclusively for the Nintendo Switch. These games, spanning from 2017 to 2024, include both mainline entries and spin-offs that offer unique experiences within the beloved franchise. Notably, all of these Zelda games are compatible with the newer Switch 2 console.\n\nThe Ocarina of Time remake, set to release in November 2023, marks the first Zelda game exclusive to the Switch 2. This remake brings a fresh take on the classic game, offering players a new way to experience one of the most beloved titles in the series.",
