Close-ish to beating Anno: Mutationem.
I don't like the beatemup combat but the world, graphics and story are interesting enough for me to finish it since it's not that long.

I'll also play a bit more of Oddworld 1 and Metal Gear VR missions.
Later some co-op with Bite the Bullet and/or some Contra games.

(Maybe) Finishing up Revita and Silent Hill 2 remake. Revita is a really basic but fun roguelite.

I'm about 3/4 through SH2R and loving it. Playing that with surround sound and true blacks on my OLED tv is just horrifying.
The melee and dodging feels a bit too much like calisto protocol but thankfully much better.

Played the original ps2 version for the first time last year and it's impressive how good the remake is although both are very much worth playing through.

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

I've been knee deep in Castlevania lately 👻

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 🦖

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.

Also some Breath of Fire 3 and Gimmick 2

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

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

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!

@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.
