"Switch 2 Zelda Ports: Repair Equipment Using Zelda Notes App"

The Nintendo Switch 2 versions of *The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild* and *Tears of the Kingdom* are set to receive exciting upgrades, including a new feature that allows players to repair equipment. This was discovered by YouTuber Zeltik during a recent Nintendo Treehouse Live stream, focusing on the Zelda Notes app—a mobile companion app exclusive to the Nintendo Switch 2 versions of these iconic games.

The Zelda Notes app introduces a Daily Bonus feature, where players can roll for various in-game benefits. Among these are meal effects, health and stamina recovery, and crucially, Equipment Repairs. This is particularly noteworthy because both *Breath of the Wild* and *Tears of the Kingdom* feature durability meters, where weapons, shields, and other items degrade and eventually break after use. This mechanic has been a point of contention among fans, so the ability to repair equipment could be a game-changer for those who wish to keep their favorite weapons, like the Flameblade, in top condition.

However, there's a catch: the Daily Bonus operates on a roulette wheel system, meaning the chance of receiving an Equipment Repair is not guaranteed. Additionally, players can only roll once per day, adding a layer of strategy and anticipation to the feature. While this might not revolutionize the gameplay entirely, it offers a handy solution in critical moments.

Beyond equipment repairs, the Zelda Notes app boasts other intriguing features. Both games will incorporate achievements through the mobile companion program, and special audio memories will enrich the lore and background of Hyrule, enhancing the immersive open-world experience. These upgrades, combined with the performance improvements of the Nintendo Switch 2, promise to elevate the gameplay for fans, especially those who have been frustrated by the durability system.
