Been replaying BOTW via the switch 2 version I can’t get over how insanely different this game feels at 60 FPS

WHEN YOU LOSE A FEATHER IN MK WORLD IT FLOATS DOWN LIKE IN SMW The details man

Probably going to do a track tier list this week but MK World has maybe the most improved retro track ever for me in Sky-High Sundae and the biggest downgrade of a Retro Track in Wario Shipyard. I’m getting used to the water controls but Wario Shipyard is just a mess.

@ash.gvg.io found this NES at a used game store

I don’t know what the intended solution is, but this was mine

Mario Kart World is probably a top 10 gaming soundtrack of all time and I’m not even kidding I’ve teared up so many times from how many songs that have never been remixed officially before got remixes It’s like what Smash does for every franchise, but for the entire Mario and Mario adjacent series

WHY WAS HE IN THERE???

Man, Mario Kart World is the most fun I’ve had with the series since Mario Kart DS. The contextual world and grounded world, the soundtrack (dear god the soundtrack) knockout tour, and free roam are all so much fun. I wish Free roam, tracked completion, but I still enjoy it.

A couple random positive thoughts on MK World - I’m astounded at how much Yoshi’s Island music got new remixes - Sky High Sundae was terrible in MK8, but is FANTASTIC in World - The Open World is addictive, BOTW vibes honestly - Character/Kart balancing feels, well, balanced!

You can still avoid Blue shells with mushrooms in Mario Kart World!

The Switch 2 era starts today!

Well, tomorrow is the day!

1 WEEK UNTIL SWITCH 2

Finished The Last of Us Season 2 The game absolutely tells this part of the story better, but there were some highlights. The raid on Jackson was an awesome original set piece, and I like how Jesse was handled/ fleshed out. The last episode cut so much from Seattle day 3, and felt very rushed.

Been playing Majora’s Mask 3D lately. I never actually finished this version back in the day, as I was super mixed on the changes. While I still don’t feel all of them are for the better, I’m having a blast and feel confident saying this is the better version.

Ah yes, my favourite character: the Nintendo 64 Rumble Pak

Every time I see Bananza, I go more and more feral. This game is cooking with GAS 🔥

Replayed Metroid Zero Mission yesterday This game would be perfect if the Mother Brain fight wasn’t faithfully obnoxious to the original game.

Been thinking about the story a lot. I think peaks in the mid-game. The ending (without spoiling anything) didn’t hit as hard as I was hoping. I also feel some parts of the game, like the platforming segments, are not good. I loved it overall though, and it’s a great first game for the studio!

I’m 5 hours into Expedition 33. Holy… COW this is already Game of the Year material! Do not sleep on this game!!

SWITCH 2 PRE-ORDER DAY

You ever have the first 2 hours of your day go so fucking badly that you just want to pack it in and skip ahead to the next week?

Just watched episode 2 of TLOU Season 2 10 out of freaking 10 episode. I LOVED the changes/additions to the story here. I already knew what was going to happen, and I’m still shaking from those last few minutes…

The Switch 1 generation is almost over. To me, this is the Nintendo console with the best exclusive library since the SNES. Here are my top 50 titles on the Switch! I counted upgraded ports/ remakes, but didn’t include multi-platform releases (sorry Dragon Quest 11S & Octopath 2)

34 years

Is it weird that jumping wasn’t really added to MARIO Kart until it’s 9th mainline entry?

Comfort game 💚

Now that I have finished Xenoblade X definitive edition’s epilogue, I think I can conclude that it is still my least favourite Xenoblade title. However, DE cleans up A LOT about the Wii U version, and is a great game - there’s no weak Xenoblade game at this point! 3 still remains the best for me!

This game’s soundtrack is so special to me. How did Jeremy Soule compose this masterpiece of an OST AT 19 YEARS OLD??

(Spoiler free) Just watched the first episode of The Last of Us Season 2. It’s a very well made show, but without saying anything, there’s some narrative rearrangements and changes that I straight up, don’t like. I’m someone who never had a problem with TLOU 2’s story for context.
