What is your favorite song of all time? And why it is Brutal Spiral of Emotions? lol youtu.be/_a0Q8Xu_QQ4?...

Repost if you have tinnitus.

In 10 hours Avowed has gone from fun to repetitive in an incredibly fast way. I’m still enjoying it, but I’m getting tired of fighting the same groups of humanoids paired with a bear over and over again. It’s getting old pretty fast. I hope more variety appears soon.

I played Avowed several hours today. So far I’m enjoying it quite a bit! I don’t see it becoming one of the highlight games this generation but I think I’m going to enjoy it well enough! The combat is actually quite fun!

Watching this convinced me that Elden Ring Nightreign is not a game for me even though I’m a huge Elden Ring fan. That game loop doesn’t attract me in the least and the lack of any kind of narrative makes difficult to become involved in the game. I think I’ll pass. www.youtube.com/live/S734J72...

Shinobi and Saros were my highlights in the State of Play. Returnal is still probably the best PS5 game that has been released so far, so I have high hopes for Saros too. Shinobi looks absolutely fantastic and I need it right now! I’ll probably be playing that on the Switch 2 though.

Quite late to the party maybe, but I’m now having such a blast playing Paper Mario RPG: The Thousand Year Door! I never expected to like it this much!

Name 4 games with a 10/10 soundtrack

Finished Cereza and the Lost Demon! What an absolute masterpiece!!!! I loved literally everything about this game! It has earned an honorable spot in my favorite Top 10 games list!

美味しかったけど、食べ切るのがしんどかった! 半分で良かった…

Cereza and the Lost Demon is an incredible game! It is like an awesomely done mix of Okami and Zelda. I’m literally in love with the art style and the music and the gameplay, from the puzzles to the combat is a delight. I highly recommend it to anyone who hasn’t tried it yet!

After finishing Famicom Detective Club: Emio (which I absolutely loved) the other day I’ve been playing Cereza and the Lost Demon. I’ve literally fell in love with that game. The beautiful art style, the incredible music and the really fun gameplay have all grabbed me with irresistible strength.

The Switch 2 is exactly how I wanted it to be: a better version of what is already a great console. We don’t know yet any of the possible features it will have so there might be surprises to be revealed April 2nd, but I’m honestly more than satisfied already. The only thing I want now is games!

If the Switch 2 won’t release until May/June at the earliest, that means we have almost half a year without any new Nintendo game with the exception of Xenoblade Chronicles X. I’m thinking we still have few more remakes/remasters that might be released to fill the gap until Switch 2 releases. 🤞🤞🤞

Perhaps I’m an odd one but I’d love an achievements/trophies system on the Switch 2. I’m not a trophy hunter by any means, but I actually really like them and always felt something lacking when playing on my Switch.

I tried the First Berserker: Khazan demo and although I really like the aesthetics, the gameplay felt kind of… meh? I don’t know… It didn’t leave me wanting to play more. I had the game on my wishlist but I think I’ll wait for a while before deciding if I buy or not.

Famicom Detective Club: Emio has left me wanting to play the other two games. They got remakes a few years ago so I’ll probably buy them soon. For now though, I think I’ll play either Cereza and the Lost Demon or Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Finished Famicom Detective Club: Emio! What a game! That epilogue literally made me cry and left me trembling. I’ve never been a fan of visual novels but this game will leave a lasting impact on me.

With the Direct being on April 2nd, that means the Switch 2 won’t be for sale until summer at the earliest. That’s somewhat disappointing for me. I wanted it on March. We’ve got more than half a year of waiting in front of us. And three months before we know anything official about the games.

来た! Nintendo Switch 2 youtu.be/S1CbhpKC6SE?...

Twitter is getting a meltdown because Nintendo’s Japanese account started posting stuff at 10am and NONE of it was Switch 2 related 😂😂 Can’t say I don’t relate though. I’m also anxiously waiting for the announcement… that never comes.

完璧な名前の主人公 😂 フャミコン探偵倶楽部 笑み男

The only thing I really want to know about the Switch 2 is if Switch 1 games will be upgraded somehow to run better on the new console. Even if it’s only Nintendo first party games I’d be even willing to pay a small amount for an upgrade that makes the games run at higher settings.

First game finished of 2025 goes to Metroid Prime Remastered! First time playing a Metroid Prime game and it was a real treat! Awesome game!

Metroid Prime Remastered has reignited my love for the Switch. Since I got my PS5 I’ve been playing it almost exclusively and I’ve been missing lots of real gems on the Switch. I need to remedy that! Thanks Samus for making me remember just how awesome this little machine is!

The Switch 2 leaks have gotten so out of hand that Nintendo has almost nothing left to announce 😂 It’s so sad that it’s even funny.

早速試してみる!

Found one! Only 3 left but one is mine! Finding a physical version that wasn’t second hand was an odyssey! I honestly thought I’d need to go digital this time. This, Cereza and the Lost Demon and Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 are almost impossible to find physical in Japan. I can’t find MUA3 anywhere!

Metroid Prime Remastered has reignited my love for the Switch after not touching it for well over a year. I’m now desperately looking for a physical (new) copy of Xenoverse Definitive Edition but it’s like trying to find the Holy Grail in Japan. I might need to go digital for that one.

I just started Disco Elysium and I must say that the first hour has been an absolutely disappointment. I don’t know, but so far nothing has really grabbed me in any meaningful way. I’m not liking the setting or the way things are going so far. I’ll give it a little more time but I’m not hopeful.

I’m playing Detroit Become Human and I’m finding the game incredible but at the same time more scary and stressful than a horror movie 😅 I always try to choose what I think might be the “best” choice but I’m constantly dreading of making a bad decision. Awesome storytelling but the pressure is tough
