"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 update was highlighted by YouTuber Zeltik during a recent Nintendo Treehouse Live stream, focusing on the Zelda Notes app—a mobile companion exclusively designed for these Switch 2 versions.

The Zelda Notes app introduces a Daily Bonus feature where users can roll for various in-game perks, such as meal effects, health and stamina recovery, and crucially, Equipment Repairs. This addition is particularly noteworthy given the controversial durability mechanics in both *Breath of the Wild* and *Tears of the Kingdom*, where weapons, shields, and other items eventually break. The prospect of repairing beloved items like the Flameblade is certainly appealing to fans.

However, it's important to note that the Equipment Repair bonus is not guaranteed. It's part of a roulette wheel system that randomly selects the daily bonus, and players must wait for a timer to reset before they can spin again. While this feature could be a lifesaver in critical moments, it's not likely to revolutionize the gameplay entirely.

Beyond equipment repairs, the Zelda Notes app offers a range of other engaging features. Both games will incorporate achievements through the mobile companion program, and special audio memories will provide new lore and enrich the background of different areas in Hyrule. These enhancements, combined with performance improvements on the Nintendo Switch 2, promise to elevate the open-world experience of Zelda, especially for those who were frustrated by the constant breaking of their favorite weapons.
