In the week that brought us the results of Splatoon 3's first Splatfest, we have been busy with lots of quality gaming content over here on Nintendo Life. September is now upon us which not only means that we are preparing for a complete barrage of new gaming titles coming to our consoles over the next few weeks, but also (as is bound to happen) we have begun talking all things Nintendo Direct, with rumours already circulating.
For those of you looking for something new to kickstart September, we have been getting hands on with a wide range of hot-off-the-press titles including ANNO: Mutationem, Ooblets and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection (come on, we couldn't make a wider-ranging trio even if we tried). Elsewhere on Nintendo Life this week, we have been following Pokémon Scarlet and Violet's cryptic clues, ranking each game's Pokédex, and leaning forward with our tongues out as we compiled a list of the hardest games on Switch.
All this means we're ready for a weekend of relaxed gaming. Here, a collection of our writers tell us their downtime gaming plans and we would love to hear yours too! Just leave us a comment down below to let us know what you are going to be playing!

What can I say, my WiFi still isn't functional so that means this weekend will once again be one of no new downloads. This being said, it has given me the chance to get back into my games that I have been sitting on for a while.
This weekend I will be playing more of Moonlighter - a wonderful little roguelite that I have been loving so far. And while I am in the nostalgic mood, I might just load up the DS and continue with my Professor Layton play-through - I believe I'm onto Professor Layton and the Spectre's Call next which was a favourite of mine when I last played it so I'm excited to get puzzling again.

Well, September looks to be a quiet month, doesn’t it? *sweats*
This weekend is going to be a bit of a washout down south, so to brighten things up, I’m going to check out the ANNO: Mutationem demo on the eShop. I’ve mentioned that I’m a bit of a sucker for pixel art visuals here before, and that’s the big draw for ANNO for me.
But I’m mostly going to be giving my Switch a break. My eyes have turned to Sam Barlow’s latest game, Immortality, on Xbox Game Pass. The critical buzz surrounding this has me very curious. I know nothing about it, so we’re going in completely blind – a rarity in this day an age! I’ve also heard stellar things about Tinykin, which looks to be a mix of Paper Mario and Pikmin. That one is on Switch, but I’ll be giving it a whirl on my little Series S.

I'm in London this weekend, which means... well, it means I'll be playing Dungeons and Dragons IN PERSON with my online D&D group for the first time in about 6 years. I'm alllllmost at the end of 13 Sentinels, though — if anyone's been following my extremely slow progress — but I don't think I'll finish it this weekend. I think I have to look up a plot explainer first!
Other than that, I also have my 3DS with me. Maybe it's time for a replay of Ace Attorney or Fantasy Life...?

There won’t be a great deal of gaming for me this weekend, but I do plan on continuing my playthrough of Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc whenever I’m able. I’ve played through the first game a couple of times, but never really experienced the sequels properly. I want to get through the first game before I move on, though, so hopefully I can get a good chunk of it done before the week is out.
Elsewhere, I’ve been playing a bit of Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty on the Series X (yes, before the rumours of a new remaster), so I’ll probably bash out another hour or so on that if I can. I love that game so much; it’s one of my favourites of all time, and I can’t wait to find out if it’s coming to the Switch!
As ever, thank you for reading! Make sure to leave us a comment below with your weekend gaming plans!

I decided to go ahead and start Xenoblade 3 and come back to Future Connected afterwards. I just couldn’t wait any longer! I’ve only played about two hours, and most of it was me just messing around in the first section you get to walk around.😅 Also, is Specter’s Call the European version of Last Specter, or is it a separate game on mobile or something that I haven’t heard about?
Don't have a lot of time so I'll only be playing a few stages of TMNT: Shredder's Revenge
@Mrkittyhead Pretty sure Specter's Call is the European name for it, in a similar way that EU have Pandora's Box (another Professor Layton) whilst US call it Diabolical Box if I'm not mistaken?
Mainly focusing on Skyrim (on Switch) this weekend. My first playthrough, and so far it's going rather swimmingly as a firebolt-blasting high elf, no use of swords here (not for now anyway) lol.
Only if I fancy, will I try and make more progress in Rain World. AI and environments are great no doubt, but the risk of getting eaten (and losing karma) almost every 20 seconds it seems lol, not so much.
This week I will be mostly playing
Phantasy Star
Pokémon Shuffle
Nintendo Switch: Still hunting daily in Sunbreak, and still having such a blast! Have now cleared all the 5* Anomoly Quests, and working towards AR100 (currently AR87). I’m fairly happy with my build now, but I still have 1 Armor piece in my main set that has potential for a better Quirio roll. Still maining GS - using the Lucent Narga variant, love the aesthetic and the skills are solid as well. Currently doing a lot of Multiplayer anomoly investigations to build my AR, mainly with ransoms, and having a good time. I’m hoping TU2 gives me a reason to keep playing, maybe new armors that lend themselves to GS skills etc
PlayStation 5: Carrying on with Bloodborne, and managed to beat Vicar Amelia first try last night… albeit I must confess I’ve been doing a lot of exploring/grinding, so perhaps my level (34) helped me out there! Found VA to be far less punishing than Father Gascoigne, who was a real wall. Flirting with the idea of going for the platinum, which seems to be doable based on some guides I’ve read
Next up: Xeno3 on Switch, and maybe Thymesia on PS5 (still can’t decide, reviews have been divisive…)
Gonna play Elden Ring as much as I can!
Not much to audaciously plan due to a conspicuously busy weekend, but in what time I'll manage to allocate, XC3 - possibly the first game I'll have ever played for 100 hours in less than a month - is a given while RF5, the other two Xenoblades plus variable doses and combinations of Isaac, Little Noah, Saints Row 4, Code Shifter, Danganronpa, Long Live the Queen and SSBU (where I've started World of Light at long long last!😅) are highly probable. I've also finally started the next Layton in my franchise binge (Unwound Future) so it and Endless Frontier have the highest odds of attention on the dual screen while the Vitas, if tended to, might see more Gravity Rush, God Eater and/or Eternia.
I’ve just beaten Xenoblade 3 and it was fantastic. I’m on holiday until Monday so not much time to start something properly and perhaps a little break with smaller things before diving into another epic JRPG is a good idea.
So I might mess with some Streets Of Rage 4, or classics like Mario Kart and Smash.
I played these games. 🙂

1. Ni no Kuni PS3
2. DDR MAX 6th Mix PS2
3. Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly Gamecube
This weekend i'll be playing:
Dead Island: Definitive Edition (PC)
Wario World (NGC)
Guild Wars (PC)
Soul Hackers 2 (PC)
Finishing up Nier automata this weekend.
Starting Ooblets after that which i've been looking forward to a couple years now
Probably more focused on the Xbox side this weekend. I haven't played the new Forza Horizon 5 side story yet which released a few weeks ago and maybe return back to Shadow of the Tomb Raider.
On the Switch front, probably a mixture of Switch Sports and Pac-Man World.
I decided that it is the time to start playing Dark Souls!
So I am on the first one now!
I have just beaten the Bell Gargoyles! The game is damn hard but I like it! I thank for those summoning signs before the boss!
I'm finally nearing the end of Xenoblade 3's main story, so I'll definitely be getting in more of that this weekend! I doubt I'll finish it since I work weekends, but I should be done with it before next Friday at least! I'll likely still work on side quests past that point, but it'll be more to the side of other games. I'm loving the game even more as I continue playing, and I can't wait to see where this crazy story's going!
On other systems, I picked up JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R on Steam, so I'll be playing that on my Steam Deck. I've messed around in it a little so far, and it's a lot of fun! I've been working on catching up to the anime while waiting for the game's release, and while I didn't quite make it in time, I'm still enjoying all the fun references to the series in the game! I'll also be playing more MultiVersus to get ready for Gizmo's release next week! He was my most-wanted character from the datamines, so I'm super excited he's coming this soon after launch.
Mario & Rabbids DLC - This week finished all the challenges now I am ready for Sparks of Hope.
Celeste - I've collected all the strawberries I am almost done B-side only 1 level (the summit) left, but let me tell you my fingers are hurting is THAT HAAARD....!!! gosh it's rewarding when you finish a level, I think I am addicted to the pain and suffering at this point 🤪 😃
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - trying to get 3stars on the new cups.
Maybe I will start a new game too from my backlog like Luigi's Mansion 2 or Kirby's Dream Land 3. Or something else....
Happy gaming everyone!!! Bless
After wrap up my time in XC 3 (finishing main story), now I'm trying to do post content. First thing is to hunt all unique monster to get the sweet skill and do some grinding stuff I guess....
Dolmen. Another Dark Souls clone but in an icky sci-fi environment. The creatures could be from Dead Space. Also, got Chocobo GP on the cheap and it is better than expected.
I’ve said this before, but I wasn’t exactly head over heels for Breath of the Wild back at launch. But I’ve been playing it again for the past several weeks and this time around, however, I’m having a blast and absolutely adore the game. I’m two Devine Beasts down with two more to go, but I really am taking my sweet time exploring Hyrule.
I’m also playing Animal Crossing: New Horizons for the first time. I started it a couple weeks back and I’m currently about 30 hours in. I just can’t put the game down. Well, except for Zelda of course.
Between Zelda, Animal Crossing and my recent holiday overseas, my PS5 hasn’t had a look in for over two months now. And I’m back in love with my Switch. Crazy what a holiday and a portable console can do for your gaming enjoyment.
Have a wonderful weekend everyone!
In 2-3 week i will get my steam deck, until then i try to finish as many games as i can. Omori and 13 sentinels area a must to finish. In the meantime i also started Gerda, a flame in winter, a game that have such a beautiful story.
Pokemon Legends Arceus for me. Might play some Fire Emblem Birthright too.
Just finishing up the Scarlet Blaze route on Fire Emblem Warriors Three Hopes which will be my first route done. After that I'll probably have a break from it for some time before starting the Azure Gleam route. As to what I'll play after it, so many options... Astral Chain, Kirby and The Forgotten Land, Live A Live, Metroid Dread, The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles, Triangle Strategy... so many games I bought that I still need to actually get round to finishing.
I just had surgery on Thursday and will be recovering for two weeks, so most of my gaming time will be spent with my Nintendo Switch. Right now, I’m playing (and the list is long):
Shovel Knight Treasure Trove. I remember buying this game day one when it originally released back in 2014 on the PS4, and loving it so much I got the platinum trophy for it. Since then, I haven’t touched it at all, including its subsequent DLC expansions - but I did buy it for the Switch and have been replaying it. My goodness - it’s such a masterpiece in all facets of its genre.
Continuing with my retro kick - I finished Super Castlevania 4 for the SNES. It was a tough game, but fun as hell. I thought the environments were really interesting, and the room spinning in circles was such a cool moment. Onward to Castlevania III: Dracula’s Curse (or a replay of CoTM - one of my favorites from the entire franchise).
I also completed two modern retro throwback games: Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon 1 and 2. Those games are short, sweet, and a total blast to play. There is a ton replayability with character swapping and branching paths. Moreover, Zangetsu’s character is really interesting and I love how in the sequel you can acquire an ability to provide a moveset up to three attacks with his Soul Eraser and then ultimately the Zanmatou. Also, Dominique is cool - and I just have an affinity for spears in a video game.
Another game on my list is I’ll be ANNO: Mutationem. The cyberpunk aesthetic will always garner my attention. So far, the pixel art and combat looks gorgeous and is fun to play. I almost bought this game for the PS5 when it released months ago but held off on the hope it would come to the Switch. The performance is great, too. The only major downside is the long load times, but that’s minimal compared to the complete package on offer. I can’t wait to see where the ride takes me.
Lastly, I’m going to be playing The Last of Us Part 1. The original from 2013 is my all time favorite game. It had a profound effect on me and changed me as a man, father, and simply impacted my life in ways I never even considered. I was initially skeptical about buying the remake - not because I don’t expect it to be phenomenal - but because I was worried whether or not it would have the same impact as it had before, or if its appeal would run dry for me. It’s safe to say I had nothing to worry about. I know for most people the $70.00 price tag might be too much for a remake, but I personally don’t see it that way. I can spend $25.00 for a two hour movie experience, and if it was good then I won’t have any complaints. So, spending seventy dollars on a product that I’ll always have and will spend a significant amount of time on is not a bad deal in my opinion.
Mahjong by Microsoft (Android) - Starting on this months challenges.
World At Arms (Windows Phone) - Just starting on.
Temple Run 2 (Windows Phone) - I love me an endless runner.
We Are OFK on Switch: it really clicks with me on the "dream job" issue, and I like all the characters.
On my 3DS, slowly doing puzzles for Layton and the Diabolical Box.
Slowly getting through Somnium Files: Nirvana Initiative. Not as interesting as the original, but I like how it tackles certain aspects like mental health and depression. Also playing Eastward. Pretty good game!
On other platforms, I am finishing Dragon Quest XI on Stadia. I started it on Switch, but for some reason dropped it there.
Omno, got it on sale about a week ago and I am loving it! Cool visuals, relatively easy but fun puzzle solving and chill atmosphere. Picked up Plantera, so simple but so addictive. And then a little Rocket League.
Happy gaming everyone!
Hoping to finish Live A Live before I resume studying in earnest. Absolutely fantastic game and just the right length for those of us sick of million hour rpgs 😅 Really interested in Anno and Tinykin too but the backlog be screaming at me 😂
Anno demo for me
Gonna play some more JUICED! and see if I can finally manage to beat that boss rush
I am on my holibobs, but will find some time for Xenoblade Chronicles 3. 80 hours in, and have just started Chapter 5. Amazing game, truly, and I am hoping that I still have a long way to go with it. I think that this would make it into my all time top three JRPGs, along with YS VIII, and Eternal Sonata. Have a lovely weekend, all!
🌙, Ultra 🌙 Just not into this one as much as I thought I would be, or as much as I wanted to be. It’s still too similar IMO. But I did catch a Caterpie earlier 😛 so my Dex is well on its way to completion. Again.
The same thing I have been playing exclusively all week; THE COWABUNGA COLLECTION. (Cheers to everyone going to see JAWS this weekend, btw).
@BigBoo enjoy the mario + rabbids DLC, I thought it was really good!!
I'm on stage 5 of Streets of Rage 4, hoping to finish it this weekend!
I’m starting Xenoblade chronicles 3 this weekend. It’s my first Xenoblade game, I like it so far. A little lost in the combat system but I guess I’ll get better as I go….
It’s hard to make progress in any one game with so many releases and deliveries lately! I’ll keep sidling through MH Rise but will have to give the first NES and arcade games in the TMNT Cowabunga Collection some quality time. Bugsnax just arrived, too, so I might want to preview that w the kiddos and see if it clicks.
Next weekend I’ll be laying down ink in Splatoon 3 so the game overload will only worsen… 😅
Have a fun weekend, everyone!
Just completed chapter 5 of XC3 ...... Wow. Keen to finish now. It's taken about 45 hours so far. I'm guessing another 15 or so over the next few weeks and I will be done. What a game!
It’s Labor Day weekend in the States, so I probably won’t be doing a lot of gaming, but if I do get the chance, I’ll continue plugging away at Xenoblade 2 (chapter 5). I just played through Paratopic last night. What an experience that was! Might have to do another play through and make some different choices. Anyway, happy weekend!
Xenoblade Chronicles 3
70 hours in. Still in chapter 5. I've been doing side quests and exploring the map for the last 10 hours and I still have some I could do but I'm ready to make some story progress next time I boot up the game.
Splatoon 2 - Octo Expansion
Started earlier this week. Thought I'd play it before 3 comes out. I already finished the main story couple of months ago in preparation which is literally the same thing I did with 1 when 2 was coming out. I've heard universal praise when it comes to Octo Expansion and it didn't disappoint. I think I'm almost 2/3 done.
PICROSS S MEGA DRIVE & Master System edition
Got this from the recent sale and started playing last week. Already done with regular Picross and Clip Picross. 6 pages of Mega Picross and 10 Color Picross left.
NES Remix
Picking up games for 3DS and Wii U before the stores close and this is one of the games I never got for whatever reason. It's great. I wish I had played it sooner.
I've beat XC3 after 100+ hours... Now I have to face that void of beating a game... Trying to find a filler until Bayonetta 3.
More Rocket League ( PC). Might find some time for The Last Story (Wii), as well.
Earlier in the week, I started a second playthrough of Super Mario 3D World, so I will continue that over the weekend. I’m also diving back into Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove, for the Plague of Shadows campaign. I’ll probably play some Super Smash Bros.: Ultimate with the kids as well.
Lots of Steam Deck
Still playing Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition. At around 67 hours now and on Chapter 12, which is now possibly my favorite chapter so far.
I haven't been playing it quite as much as I should have been this week, as I think I only completed one chapter all week, but that will change this weekend.
@MarioBrickLayer Thanks! I've been truly enjoying it sweet and short. Loving DK & Cranky their attacks are op, feels so good when you are destroying your enemies and getting that perfect score on each stages.
I've been looking out for Street of Rage 4 for a while, I heard very positive reviews. Now It's COWABUNGA!!! for me every evening I forgot to mention it. What a great collection...So maybe after I've done with it. Have fun!
On PS5, continuing my play-through of FF7 Remake. I’m on Chapter 11 & I must say even though it feels very “visual novely” with light action I truly enjoy the story so far. Many twists and turns keeping me on my toes. I hope to go back to OG and play this first part in its true PSX form
On the Nintendo front my sisters fiancé and I tackled a few rounds of Super Smash Bros Ultimate where he won a best out of 5 meanwhile I balanced out my graphical powerhouse of a game with a environmental puzzler called Limbo whilst in bed. Well beyond worth the 2 bucks I spent on this clever critter
games Im playing this weekend
Xenoblade 3
Resident Evil 5
and either Paper Mario Origami or start playing Ni No Kuni 2
Some Monster Hunter Rise and some Destroy All Humans 2 Reprobed.
Chugging through Paper Mario: The Origami King. Can’t say the puzzle combat clicks with my head, but it’s a really charming game. Don’t regret the purchase.
I’m just counting down the days to Splatoon 3 at this point. While I wait, I’m playing Fortnite and Sonic Unleashed.
On PS5 i will be continuing with Soul Hackers 2, 27 hours in and it's been ok so far but the soul axis dungeon is starting to bore me, they should of made each floor look slightly different but no, the most generic dungeon I've ever experienced in a game which bumps the score I'd give it right down.
On switch I will be continuing with the masterpiece that is Xenoblade chronicles 3, just reached the castle and even though I'm only half way through I've sank 50 hours into this and is my game of the year, so far.
On my series S I have just done the first big area in far cry 5 (John seed), but I will now give it a rest whilst I try and complete guardians of the galaxy and downloaded Tinykin for my next game.
I have actually been playing a lot of Wave Race 64 on the switch. I had an N64 back in the day but didn’t have this game. I maybe rented it at some point. So I have no real nostalgia for it specifically, but I have really been enjoying it. It has aged quite well in terms of gameplay and controls. And I like the N64 3D graphics in a nostalgic kind of way.
Ooblets is on my todoozies, and I’ll prob continue Owlboy and jump in on a few Fortnite rounds with the fam.
Just Tinykin for me (if I can find the time). I absolutely love what I've played of that game so far. Most fun I've had with a platformer since Bowser's Fury.
Mostly more Xenoblade Chronicles 3 on this long(!) holiday weekend. I'm currently in the middle of Chapter 5 - 55 hours in - and getting sidetracked like crazy! What can I say, Monolith has REALLY improved the quest system in this game and made a lot of them interesting.
Not much else on other systems, though I'm diving into the puzzles of Stretchmo on my N3DS XL. I bought the entire bundle, so it'll keep me busy for a little while. Probably a bit of Pokemon Go this weekend as well when it isn't raining.
Happy gaming!
I finally finished Xenoblade 3 last week! Now to do the many post-game quests and to tackle the superbosses!
I'm investigating some of the more obscure titles on the NSO app. Been playing some Jelly Boy and Super Valis IV on SNES.
Still playing Xenoblade Chronicles 3! I'm about 125 hours in now!
Oddly, I'm playing Shantae and the Seven Sirens. I didn't think I'd play it again, but the updates do improve the experience. Whilst they may have thrown a bit too much at it, you can see how they were going for a really top-class Metroidvania.
Started The Last of Us Part 1 last night, and what an upgrade visually and sound quality wise from the Remaster on PS4. My most favorite thing about the game is hands down the included gyro controls, thanks Naughty Dog! Made in Abyss Collector's Edition was delivered yesterday also, but that and Soul Hackers 2 will be on the backlog until I Platinum TLOU Part 1. Other then that, I'm still finishing up side quests on Xenoblade Chronicles 3 (120 hours) it seems like this game will never end! I love it but I'm kinda getting burned out and ready to move on. I'll probably play some TMNT Cowabunga Collection on the side, when I need a break from the other 2 games.
Have a great weekend, everyone! Happy gaming!
Pokemon Unite got a great new update so I'll mostly be playing that in addition to some Shiny Hunting across Pokemon Shield, Brilliant Diamond and Legends Arceus, getting some more arcade mode runs of Street Fighter Alpha 2 done (just got Rolento done yesterday, about to go Adon) and finally finishing WinBack before Splatoon 3 comes out (one shooter to another, you know?). There's also the matter of 100%ing Splatoon 2 before 3's release but I'm going to get most of everything said prior done before tackling that can of sea worms (Inner Agent 3 is going to slaughter me).
Crypt of the NecroDancer, just released a mod for it on PC!
I´ll continue playing Xenoblade Chronicles 2, I´m at the end of chapter 7 so hopefully I´ll be done with it this weekend. I want to continue with the Xenoblade series but I´m torn between moving into 3, playing Torna or playing the first one, any recommendations?
Skyward Sword on switch came recently but I'm holding off. More tales of vesperia on 360 for now
Yesterday I finished Pumpkin Jack. Disappointing.
And today and tomorrow I might try a couple of games on the 3DS: Mighty Milky Way, Maestro and Pictopics. And perhaps I'll resume Fire Emblem Fates
TMNT Cowabunga Collection, Animal Crossing, and Xenoblade 2.
Super Mario Galaxy - When I first got 3D All Stars I hated the Galaxy controls and didn't get too far. But now I'm playing with pro controller, minimizing motion controls, and loving it. This is basically my first real playthrough of the game.
Anno: Mutationen Demo - very quirky and interesting game. I'm not yet sure if I'll buy it, but I'm enjoying the demo and extending it by finding all the funny dialogue and collectibles.
Rite - fun and pretty little platformer. I beat the first 80 levels in a couple sittings when I first bought it so now I need to go back and work on the latter somewhat harder half.
I'll probably play other things too since it's a 3-day weekend in the US, but a lot of real life stuff also, so not sure.
I’ll be playing Guilty Gear Strive on my pc and a bit more of Kirby and the Forgotten Land on Switch. I want to get as close to 100% as I can before Splatoon 3 comes out!
Nothing as I’m away from home without my switch. I would play more of Rayman Legends as it is my current game from the backlog.
Portal (on my son’s Xbox) - doing the challenges. Maybe a bit of Enter The Gungeon on Switch. Not starting anything new until I’ve spent some time with Splat 3
Thanks to Zion's wonderful "the mother we share" I've decided to play Mother 3
Got a busy weekend ahead of us, but xenoblade and cowabunga collection.
Xenoblade 3, 43 hours and just wrapped Chapter 5. Dying to see where the story goes from here but the side quests just keep on coming and I can’t stop myself from clearing them out before moving to the next story quest 🙄
I beat Xenoblade 3 last weekend, but I'm still working on Hero Quests and maxing out classes. I also picked up all the Fire Emblem Awakening DLC the other day so I might play a few maps later today. On PS4, I'm continuing my Persona 5 Royal playthrough after taking a break for a while.
Me and Wife:
Me:
I'm at a lake and offline - but the weather is awful. I usually play games that dont require graffic fidelity on handheld mode. The retros are great for trips like this. I'm halfway through Breath of Fire so likely that. Picross 7 and maybe Three Houses to round it off. cheers all
Getting hyped for Splatoon next weekend.
With the kids definitely a little Mario Party Superstars and for myself Xenoblade 1. I am halfway through my second playthrough and I’m noticing the connections to XC2.
Basically I want to refresh my memory before I get into Xenoblade 3.
@Edukun Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is massively enriched by having played 1 and 2 so given you started with 2 I'd recommend this path: XC2 -> Torna -> XC Definitive Edition (the main game and then Future Connected afterwards) -> XC3
I'm still playing Saints Row 2 on co-op, which is taking up a lot of my gaming time. Otherwise I am playing Cannon Fodder on the Evercade and, on Switch, Fashion Princess (basically Qix with different arena layouts and a number of other twists).
I'm kinda between things right now. I finished Live A Live a week or so ago and now I'm waiting for the next thing to grab my interest. It will probably be Digimon Survive or going back to play another route on Triangle Strategy. I tried out the demo of Anno: Mutationem and I love the art style, so I'll be looking for a sale on that one.
While waiting for inspiration to strike I've been playing through Pokemon Black 2, and I think I'm finally going to finish it this time
Just finished moonlighter and the dlc. So started play new pokemon snap. And loving it 😁
I started with a little Save me Mr. Tako! to get a feel for it, then went to MK8D for a couple rounds. I'm going to get back to Torna: The Golden Country now, but I'll need to do a special tribute play for Double Dragon 1 arcade as I learned of Yoshida-san's passing, for the honor, and the memories.
@Zuljaras Enjoy it man. I beat it again a couple of years ago but want to go back soon.
Xenoblade Chronicles 3 and TMNT: The Cowabunga Collection.
I'm playing Cult of The Lamb and I love it. Also playing some Xenoblade 3.
im playing alot of world of tanks and forza 5 on the xbox this weekend.
I would play my new acquisitions of August: Kirby's Dream Buffet, Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury and Mario Strikers: Battle League if it weren't for the fact I don't have my Switch dock, my nephew has it.
I have a rule that says new games in my collection won't be played in handheld or tabletop mode after I beat them at least once, unless the game is designed with handheld or tabletop mode in mind, like Brain Training Switch (why that hasn't been released in the US?).
As for games I'll actually play this weekend, Super Mario Advance 4 on the Wii U Virtual Console: some of the levels in World-e are legitimately as difficult as Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels.
Same thing I've been playing every day for over a year now: Genshin Impact. Due to me coming down with COVID the same day the new region, Sumeru, was released, I am a week behind in a bunch of stuff.
I was able to power through the flagship event of Version 3.0, as well as finish the Aranyaka World Quest series. I can finish the Archon Quest tomorrow, hopefully, and then start working on the more minor World Quests and exploring the region, getting the Dendroculi, upgrading the Statues of the Seven, and whatnot.
Still playing Xenoblade chronicles 3. I’m only 95 hours in. So still a lot to do left. I’m not even in the post game 😅
Corpse Party: Blood covered... Repeated fear – Got Wrong End 2 ★4 after replaying Chapter 5. I had unlocked 5th Extra Chapter and completed it.
BLAZBLUE CENTRALFICTION Special Edition – Completed Arcade Mode playing as Bullet and Valkenhayn R. Hellsing.
Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary World Tour – played a little bit of Death Row level in 1st Episode. Had little progress.
Well... That's all what I've played on this week. Have a nice gaming weekend, everyone.
Finally having a crack at Slay the Spire. Not doing too bad - completed Act 1 first try, but the daily run was a bit… er, odd.
Mainly just been pushing on with Xenoblade 3, but also finished off a CrossDoors seed on Link to the Past Randomizer Really fun game mode
Xenoblade Chronicles 3. I started chapter 5, but going back to do a lot of side missions and maybe play some XCX.
Dark Chronicle for the Playstation 2. It is a great game so far. Shooting photos is a nice addition to the series.
Rage-quitting back and forth between Ys Origin and The Last of Us
Into the Breach on "Unfair" mode atm. Just beat hard mode. Grid Autosport. I may play a little Bad North, Xcom 2, or Dark souls, my current go-to games on Switch.
Still working on my initial play-through of Xenoblade 3. Almost 200 hours in now.

@Zuljaras I’m a simple gamer, I see someone playing dark souls… I click that like button
@SJW The game is fantastic but all the talk about how hard it is is totally true!
Just killed a singing butterfly thing ... and some stone knights are giving me trouble!
Every enemy has given me the "YOU DIED" screen at least once
@Edukun I highly suggest playing Torna immediately after 2 as it adds alot to the base story and you want 2 to be fresh in your mind when playing it. Its also only like 15-20 hours so it shouldn't be a long one
