Still getting through Breath of Fire 3 🐲 and Core Keeper. Will try to beat them before next weekend. Might do my first playthrough of the Remixed run in Savant Ascent Remix
I've been using dekudeals for about 4 years now. It is strangely therapeutic to block awful games. Just looked it up now and i've blocked/hidden just over 7000 switch games.
Got close to beating Shadow of the Ninja Reborn co-op last night. It got way to late and in turn our brains turned into mush at the most difficult levels so we decided to play through the final level tonight instead. After that maybe Gravity Circuit.
I got a grip for my analogue pocket which actually makes it possible for me to play with the shoulder-buttons without breaking my hands. Might play through the gba version of A link to the past for the first time
Today i'll play through Inti creates new zeldaish game Divine Dynamo Flamefrit. Going to a work christmas-party tonight so tomorrow will probably be a lot of hungover Dragon quest 3
Man, time flies. It's almost two years ago since i beat chained echoes and immediately ordered the collector's edition because i loved it so much. That was probably a waste...
I'm looking forward to play part of my backlog with hopefully better performance. Games like Monster hunter stories 2, dragon quest monsters made me nauseous. I beat echoes of wisdom but saved completing it for switch 2
Running around in The Pathless. Beautiful game as expected from Journey and Abzu devs. Close-ish to beating it. Continuing Dino Crisis 2 later tonight and might start Afterdream tomorrow.
Played through circle of the moon a month or two ago. Beat the other two gba games earlier in october, then Dawn of Sorrow and Portrait of ruin since last weekend. Just beat Portrait last night and started Order of Ecclesia today.
Will also start Dino Crisis 2 later today with a friend 🦖
Close-ish-maybe to beating Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance. Having much more fun with it than i had with Circle of the Moon but the map can be confusing
Well ZeldaZelda is the obvious one, but other than that i'm playing through Metal Gear Solid 3 again, trying to do a full non-lethal run while using the crocodile hat as much as possible
Trying to finish up Steamworld Heist 2. Loved the first one and while i enjoy this one too, the world exploration with the sub is really boring to me. Had the same problem with the mario+rabbids games. In my mind tactical games are best when they stick to tactics, planning and upgrading.
Started the DS version of Ni No Kuni for the first time. The "Wrath of the white witch" version is one of my favorite rpg's so i've been wanting to play the original ds version for years.
On playstation i've been playing Astro Bot the last few days. Just amazing! Definitively in my top 3 so far this year along Animal Well and Crypt Custodian
This weekend is all about modern sequels to 2 of my favorite NES games. Gimmick 2 and Ufouria/Hebereke 2
Only played the first level of Gimmick 2 but so far so good!
Ufouria 2 has maybe my favorite artstyle ever. It's such a wonderful/weird world!
If i beat both of those i'll try to play through the rest of "For a Vast Future" since i'm not too far from the end
Been playing Crypt Cystodian the last few days and loving it! Might beat it this weekend.
Later i'll play Beholgar with a buddy.
I've also been playing a bit of Castlevania Rondo of Blood for the first time. After too many replays of Symphony of the Night it's time to play the prequel
Wanna use my MiSTer alot this weekend.
Thinking of playing getsu fuma den on famicom and crusaders of centy on megadrive.
Will also sprinkle some steamworld heist 2 and Oniken in there
Beat castaway last night which was fun but really felt like a demo for links awakening styled zelda-clone. Hopefully they make a sequel. Might beat Odallus this weekend. Had it my backlog for a few years and started playing it this week. Pretty good so far!
Well Eiyuden Chronicle is finally patched to a playable state so I'll play a lot of that! Just got to the castle.
A store close to me had a nintendo sale so i grabbed princess peach showtime and mario vs donkey kong for about a decent price. Also grabbed You suck at parking on switch and klonoa on ps5. Might play showtime or klonoa if i need a break from Eiyuden
Finishing up Luigi's Mansion 2 HD right now probably. Just beat the train-level in the last mansion.
Tried to play this on 3DS many dark moons ago but couldn't get into the structure of the game. Also hated how much E.Gadd called you. Turns out it's much more fun when i skip all of his calls 📵
Might also finish up Silent Hill 2 which i'm playing for the first time. A bit more scary than Luigi's Mansion
F-Zero. Driving around in the blue falcon, hopping out and falcon-kick some fool, upgrade your car, upgrade your kicks do sidequests similar to the big goron sword where you need to drive really fast to just about make it.
It would be so stupid but i love it! Star Fox was such a "good" fit so why not
Unlike the stores close to my hometown in norway the gamestores here in spain actually have a great variety of games so i've bought too many. All indie switch-games.
Beat Lacuna, cotton reboot and started Souldiers today.
Also beat Master Key early in the week which i need more people to buy so there's hope for a physical release. If you like Zelda, Tunic and Animal Well then get it!
Went on holiday today. Played Master Key the whole flight. Instantly bought it after i read the n-life post a few days ago. Such a great zelda-like game!
After a couple weeks only playing rpg's (Paper Mario, Baldur's Gate 3) i had to play something short and easy. Just beat Kirby's Dream Land 1 an hour ago for the first time on my pocket. Want to play some metroidvania type game so might start Haak, Ghost Song or Arzette
@NintendoByNature Mr Gimmick on switch has insane input latency. Played it a few months ago and really hated it but decided to give it a go on MiSTer fpga which is accurate to how it's played on NES.
Turned out to be one of my favorite nes games when i could actually control the little green guy
Beat Animal Well a few days ago. My game of the year so far!
Playing paper mario again with the remake which has been lovely.
Got my physical copy of Eiyuden Chronicle yesterday so tried it out a bit. Runs terribly so far. Hopefully the next patch improves it a lot. Might consider another version if not.
Started Neon White. On episode 4 now. Really fun gameplay and perfect for gyro controls. Though I've never skipped this much dialogue before in a game. Thankfully there's a text fast-forward feature for people like me who can't stand the story and characters
Looking forward to see the end cutscenes having absolutely no idea what's happening
The NES version of Meta Gear 1. Never played through it and want to compare it to the MSX version. Added a QoL auto-card patch to avoid some frustrations.
I'll also play some Crab Souls, The Maw and maybe Ufouria 1
Just bought a physical copy of Arkanoid Eternal Battle so will be breaking some blocks.
On MiSTer i'll be playing Resident Evil 3 and try out the Saturn version of Castlevania Symphony of the night. Have played the PS1 version tons of times so it will be interesting to see the differences
PAC-MAN World RePAC, Two Point Campus and Resident Evil 1.
Finished Ship of Fools in co-op and Gunbrella yesterday. Really liked em both but ship of fools is way to janky to play at least on switch. Regular stuttering while reloading and moving cannons around really screws you over sometimes. Hopefully the team can make a better more polished sequel with more variation in levels and bosses
If i need a break from bigger games i'm currently playing maybe a quick playthrough of Aladdin on Super Nintendo, some puzzle bobble, few matches in rocket league or Suika game

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (New Year Edition)
I'm lost in the caves of Core Keeper and i can't get out. Love this game! Gives me the exact feeling Terraria gave me 10-11 years ago.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (Christmas 2024 Edition)
Just beat the christmas level and the time trials in Astro Bot. Awesome as expected although my hands hurt a bit after the monkey time trial.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (16th November)
Started Clive N' Wrench today. Pretty fun collectathon so far 👍
My copy of Dragon Quest 3 haven't gotten here yet so i'll continue my playthrough of Breath of Fire 3 to satisfy my jrpg cravings
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (9th November)
It's gonna be a dangerous mix of Stardew Valley 1.6, Balatro and Cassette Beasts.
Re: Reaction: Rest Easy, Folks, Your Switch Backlog Ain't Going Anywhere

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (2nd November)

Beat Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath yesterday which was really fun and odd.
I've been playing Eiyuden chronicles every now and then. Getting close to halfway.
Started Anuchard this morning. A top down zelda-like game. Seems decent so far
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (5th October)

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (10th August)
Kingsley's Adventure on PS1. Seems like a decent zelda-ish game with a fox using a sword and shield. PS1 Tunic 🦊
Also will play Steamworld Heist 2 and some replaying of the new version of Doom. The new Andrew Hulshult soundtrack is great so far 🤟
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (3rd August)
It's the 90's in my household this weekend.

In between double shifts at work this weekend i'll play some Toree and Pokemon Crystal Clear, a open world romhack which has me hooked.
Last night i beat Alone in the Dark 1 which was surprisingly good!
Love those goofy looking polygons
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (6th July)

In case of both Puzzle Bobble Everybubble.

Bomberman Hero on MISTer fpga.
Still holds up 👍
Also picked up two point campus and ace combat 7 in a bargain bin just now so might give them a try
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (30th March)
Double shifts at work this weekend so sneaking in some ocarina of time 3D when possible.
Today i realized the 3DS version now is as old as the original was back in 2011
Re: Talking Point: What's Your Perfect Sunday Morning Game?

Dragon's Dogma 2
Just accidentally threw a quest-giver in the river
Played through the pc remasters of CDi Link faces of evil and zelda wand of gamelon last couple of days.
Surprisingly kinda fun
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (16th March)
Maybeeee finishing up FF VII Rebirth.
Just got the white tights and earrings in the 3DS version of Ocarina of time. Never played through that version before.
Thinking some warioware move it and maybe broforce with some friends tonight
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (March 9th)
Taking a little break from Final Fantasy VII Rebirth with Dodgeball Academia.
Also got the fat baby yoshi avatar so life's good
