@waldo13 I was going to say the exact same thing. Exciting stuff.

@Ade117 Definitely VI. One of my personal favourite games of all time and often considered to be one of the best games of all time in general. Just an amazing experience all around. I really liked IV as well, it's shorter and more simple, but it's a nice bite sized introduction.

I bought it on release, still have it sealed. I had a lot of hopes for this patch, seems like it's still gonna be a messy playthrough either way. Pretty disappointing.

Wario Land 3 is one of my all time favorite games. Super excited to dive back into it!

I bought it day one but when II found out it's a slide show, I just kept it sealed. Hopefully 1.2 will bring some improvements. I'm getting too old to waste my time playing unfinished games.
A real shame since Arceus was my favorite Pokémon game since OG Gold and I was really looking forward to this.

Ecruteak city

This is one of my all time favorite games. I really hope they release a physical version at some point. Will buy it for sure, great opportunity to replay this little gem.

I skipped Sword and Shield mostly because I was just so tired of all the hand holding in the main games. I bought Arceus and had a blast, most fun I had with a Pokémon game since the original Gold version.

After finishing Arceus I decided to buy Sword and was immediately disappointed. The same hand holding was still there, but I also noticed something different that annoyed me even more: battles with wild Pokémon in these mainline games are extremely slow compared to Arceus.
Instead of being able to.walk around after the pokémon is defeated, you have to go through a not insignificant wall of text explaining the Pokémon fainted, experience was gained or new moves were learned if you're (un)lucky. I never noticed it until the snappy gameplay from Arceus, but now it's really annoying for me. If you dare to catch a Pokémon it gets even worse, with extra screens for nicknames, storage in Pokémon boxes and Pokédex entries.
In Arceus they just dropped all these and it results in a way more fluid and enjoyable experience that keeps you in the flow of battling and catching Pokémon instead of grinding everything to a halt with what feels like endless menus. This alone makes the mainline games obsolete for me.

I feel like I wasted my money on Sword. I'll finish it because I like the Pokémon designs and want to keep up with the new critters, but I'm not even half as excited to continue playing as I was for Arceus.

I feel the series has been in a downward spiral for a while now, replacing its sense of wonder with tedious hand holding and recycling overused formulas. I really hope this can be a Breath Of The Wild moment for the franchise as I still really love Pokémon. I'm cautiously hopeful.

@TheBigK If you like 2D Zelda this is a no brainer. No artistic skill needed. My game of the year for 2021.

This is hands down one of my favourite games of the last 5 years. The mix of PS2 era 3D platformer vibes and 2D Zelda dungeons is fantastic. The character designs are weird in a good way and the story is great. Definitely going to buy it again on Switch.
