I will get a physical copy for Switch & PS5. I hope it comes to Best Buy!

Made in Abyss Collector's Edition will be delivered tomorrow, along with The Last of Us Part 1.

Other then that, my Collector's Edition of TMNT Cowabunga Collection for Switch & Standard Edition for PS5 was delivered on Tuesday.

This week, I also picked up Dragonball Z Kakarot, Power Ranger Battle for the Grid Super Edition & Omori for Switch.

Plus I ordered a stack of PS5 games this week that were on sale. All $20 each, besides FF7 Intergrade, which was $40.

Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy
Babylon's Fall
Hades
GTA V
Godfall
Scarlet Nexus
In Nightmare
Final Fantasy 7 Intergrade

I don't worry about burn in, but either way, it's a risk I'll take. My LG OLED tv's & Switch OLED have me spoiled. I could never go back to a LED/LCD tv. I can't even play my Switch Lites anymore and my ACNH Switch consoles stay docked to both of my OLED tv's. The vibrant colors and inky blacks are a sight to behold!

Put my pre-order in for this and Death's Door today from Best Buy. I'm excited to play this in handheld mode on my Switch OLED!

How about a physical release for the delay? I want to play it but I'll hold out for a physical, just in case.

So glad I double dipped! My Collector's Edition for Switch & standard edition for PS5 will be delivered tomorrow! I never thought I'd see Turtles in Time & Tournament Fighters released on modern platforms, but here we are. I'll probably pick up a copy for Series X as well, when the price drops. These games are my childhood! I'm so excited!

I want it to be good, but unfortunately Sonic games have been more miss than hit over the past 20 plus years. With so many other games coming out for the rest of the year and early next year, I'll most likely have to wait for a price drop either way.

Still playing Xenoblade Chronicles 3. I should be done soon. After XC3 I was thinking of starting XC Definitive Edition over, since i didn't finish it last time. My copy of Soul Hackers 2 (PS5) will be arriving today, so I'll probably play that. And mabey some Dying Light 2 co-op on Series X with a friend.

Have a great weekend everyone! Happy gaming!

Was able to pre-order the Cowabunga Collection Collector's Edition last week! I'm so excited for that!

I finally ordered my own copy of Mario Party Superstars (played my sister's copy since release) which will be delivered tomorrow along with Soul Hackers 2 (PS5).

Give me local wireless play for the Switch version. Then I'll buy 2 copies. I was disappointed Moving Out didn't have it. The Overcooked games support local wireless, so why can this?

Even though I can play this on my PS5 at 60fps, I still prefer to play it in handheld mode on my Switch OLED. Day 1 pick-up. Hopefully Nier Replicant will come to Switch also.

@shinesprite That mabey true, but I don't have an hdmi converter for Gamecube to compare. The Wii to hdmi adapter looks good to me, plus I can use progressive scan for games that support it (Luigi's Mansion, Mario Kart Double Dash, Mario Sunshine, ect) I wanted to get component cables for my Gamecube, but those are really expensive nowadays...

@SilverdudeOmni Sorry, I wish I could help. I don't use an Elgato and I never have. Mabey someone else on here can help you out. Hopefully you get it figured out soon.

I'll stick with my WaveBird wireless controllers. I have 3, I just need to get one more. Besides, I usually play Gamecube games on my Wii, so I can use hdmi (Wii to hdmi adapter) on my LG C1 OLED.

@Mioaionios That's all I need to know. I'll be on the lookout for a copy. I appreciate the warning lol.

@Mioaionios That's interesting. I didn't finish XC1, even though I put almost 100 hours into it. Playing XC3 has motivated me to go back and start XC1 all over and complete it this time. I hear a lot of complaints about XC2, but I picked up a copy a few months ago anyway. I don't want to play it until I beat XC1 and find a copy of Torna first. Do you know if XCX for Wii U is worth buying?

@Mioaionios Respect to you! Finishing Xenoblade 3 and starting a new game plus right after!?
I'm loving the game, but I couldn't do that!
And playing with no fast travel this time? Madness hahaha. I'm curious, did you do the same with Xenoblade 1 & 2 ?

Still playing Xenoblade Chronicles 3 daily (80 hours) so many side quests. I must finish them all! Other then that, mabey Blue Reflection on PS5. But most likely XC3 all weekend.

Pre-ordered a physical copy of Quake for PS5 & Switch from Best Buy! It's amazing how much support this game has received! However, I hope the Switch version gets local wireless play support soon.

These look nice, I'll get a pair for my Switch OLED. I have 3 pairs of Split Pad Pro's which I like but don't really use anymore because I kinda replaced them with the Bin Bok Joy Con, which are more comfortable, plus they have gyro and standard rumble. I usually prefer to play in handheld mode but lately I've been playing my ACNH Switch docked to my LG C1 OLED tv with the Pro Controller. Mabey these will help me go back to playing handheld more often.

I'll check out the demo. If I like it, I'll hold out in hope of a physical release!

I'll be picking up a physical copy asap! I bought True Colors on sale for PS5 because of the delayed Switch version, but I'll pick up a copy for Switch when it goes on sale.

Edit: Since both games won't be available on the cart, I'll wait for a price drop of around $20 to pick it up.

Never played the original, so no nostalgia for it here. I'll wait until it goes on sale for $20, then pick up a copy for Switch & PS5.

Chef's Luv Shack 2 confirmed?! One can only hope 🙏.

Still playing Xenoblade Chronicles 3 (50 hours) and loving it. GOTY contender definitely. Just started Blue Reflection Second Light on my PS5, I enjoyed it so much on Switch, that I had to pick up the PS4 copy as well. Nothing much on Series X at the moment, mabey the new Saints Row game will change that. We will see.

Have a great weekend everyone! Happy gaming!

@UltimateOtaku91 Even with the cloud version you never know. Not that I'm waiting for it, but shouldn't the cloud version of Dying Light 2 for Switch have released by now? Or was it canceled?

I still find it hard to believe this is coming to Switch, besides being a cloud version. The delay is fine. PS5 version day 1. I'll pick up a copy for Switch if it reviews well.

I must admit that I have seen more price drops than usual for Nintendo first party games at Best Buy. Usually no lower than $39.99, but it's something. I buy most first party Nintendo games day 1 anyways, and double dip on the ones that support local wireless play, but it would be nice to quadruple dip on games that support it (Smash Bros, Mario Kart, ect) but not at $60 each. Hopefully Nintendo Selects will be available sometime in the near future. If Switch was my only console, it would be a different story. But I have plenty of PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Series X games to purchase, not to mention all the 3rd party games that constantly release on Switch that I can't keep up with.

@Roz1281 I didn't know that. I appreciate the info. I have some imports I wanted to order from Play Asia, so I'll probably add that to the list. Even tho I just pre-ordered the PS5 version...

I missed out on a physical copy of the first game. But I'm glad to see it's coming to Best Buy for PS5, so I won't miss it this time! Hopefully this has a physical release as well, so I can pick up a copy for Switch & PS5!

I have around 300 Switch games with 255 of them being physical. I doubt I'll reach anywhere near 2000 games when it's all said and done. So I shouldn't have to worry about this. And I delete demos of games I purchase afterwards...

Love my horror games!
I was thinking about getting a physical copy for PS5. 7/10 isn't bad. Mabey I'll pick up a copy for Switch as well! But these next few months are pack with releases, so I can hold out for a price drop. Hopefully enough physical copies will be available so it doesn't sell out...

@Sam_ATLUS Xenoblade Chronicles 3 does look better in handheld mode, I agree. I haven't played XC2 yet (in backlog) but I heard it looks very blurry and low rez in handheld, so I'll probably stick to docked with that one. I love my Switch OLED and the gorgeous screen has me spoiled, so much so that I don't want to play on any of my Switch lites anymore unfortunately 😕. Same goes for my ACNH Switches, so I prefer to keep them docked on my OLED tv's. I guess I'm just being picky lol.

@Mioaionios It definitely is for me. When I'm sitting at my desk, I have my 48" OLED, so I would just use that. Can't really use tabletop mode comfortably in bed, so I'd play handheld. Plus I have a few portable monitors (15.6") that I barely use, but would be much bigger than the Switch OLED screen. If I didn't have a TV or monitor, I'd probably use it more often...

@Mioaionios oh, I see. Tabletop mode slips my mind, since I haven't used it much. Thanks for the response! Have a great weekend! Happy gaming!

@Sam_ATLUS @Mioaionios

After so many hours between you two on Xenoblade Chronicles 3. I'm curious. Do you play mostly handheld or docked? Or a mixture of both?

I've always been mostly a handheld player myself, especially with the Switch OLED. But lately I've been playing docked (ACNH Switch) with my non OLED Switch systems on my OLED tv. It's easier for me to play extended sessions in bed with split Joy Cons (for rpg & jrpg only) on my TV, compared to holding the Switch in handheld mode...

Switch-

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 of course (30 hours in).
I picked up Assassin's Creed The Ezio Collection yesterday for $20. So I'll probably start that today.

PS5 & Series X-

Might not get any love this weekend unfortunately. We will see...

I'm fine with my Switch OLED, ACNH Switch, & Switch Lite systems for the next couple of years at least. I've even been playing docked mode more on both my 48" & 77" LG C1 OLED's and games look great! If I want better visuals with 4K, 120fps, VRR, HDR, ect then I'll play my Series X or PS5. The games are what keeps my attention, and Switch has them in spades. That's why I play my Switch more than my PS5 & Series X combined.

@GrailUK No problem! Hopefully you will find a copy soon 😊

@GrailUK Bayonetta 3 Collector's edition is available at Best Buy. I was able to pre-order mine and Bayonetta 1 as well 😁

Edit: oh, you're in the UK?
Sorry, I'm in the States. I don't know if Best Buy is available where you live...

I've had my Wii U since 2013 and I didn't even know it had Crunchyroll. I don't like using my Switch systems or any gaming consoles to watch content anyway (YouTube, Hulu, ect) because I'd rather play games on them. But I recently upgraded to a few LG C1 OLED tv's and use the browser on those to watch Crunchyroll now. So much more convenient, and I don't have to use my phone or tablet to watch Crunchyroll all the time anymore 😁

I've been playing mostly on my LG C1 OLED tv, in bed with split Joy Con in each hand and the volume up high to fully enjoy that amazing soundtrack! And yeah it does get old hearing the same lines over and over again after each battle, but other then that I'm enjoying my experience!

Pre-ordered the special edition for PS4 yesterday and I'm glad I did because it's currently sold out at Best Buy. The Switch version is still in stock though. If It turns out to be great, then I'll pick up a copy for Switch as well!

I was late to Xenoblade Chronicles. Didn't play it on Wii. I skipped the 3DS version. Didn't buy Xenoblade Chronicles 2 on release. When Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition was announced for Switch, I finally decided to buy it and was hooked. After that I ended up ordering XC 2 on Amazon because I couldn't find a copy anywhere locally. Didn't make that mistake again, so I pre-ordered a copy of XC3 to have on release and I'm enjoying it more than XC DE so far. Now I just need to order a copy of Torna, because once again I can't seem to find a copy anywhere in my area...

I said I wasn't going to play Xenoblade Chronicles 3 until I finished XC1 and played XC2 first, but it came in the mail yesterday, so I popped it in my Switch OLED to see how it looks and wow it's gorgeous! And that soundtrack is amazing so far! The Switch speakers don't do it justice, so I'll be playing this gem on my LG C1 OLED. I still need to finish Live A Live, which I would have if I didn't start playing Ghostwire Tokyo (PS5) on the same day. So this weekend I'll be playing XC3, Live A Live, and finishing up the last few trophies for the Platinum on Ghostwire Tokyo.

My copy should be here tomorrow. I'm surprised it hasn't shipped yet. Then again, Live A Live shipped on release and it was delivered the same day. Not that it matters to have it on release. It will be sitting on the shelf for a while anyways...

I still need to get 4 of those N64 controllers. They sell out so fast everytime they restock. The grey color is fine, but I wish Nintendo had a variety of controller colors to choose from, like the N64 days. I probably wouldn't even use them anyway, like I don't with the Snes controllers sitting on my shelf.
But I'm a controller junkie, so I can't help it 😂

Looks amazing but I didn't expect a 10/10. Even though I won't be playing it on day 1( need to beat XC1 & XC2 first) I'm glad I pre-ordered this masterpiece! It'll be sitting on my shelf waiting until I get to it one of these days. Now I need to order a physical copy of Torna

I never heard of this game, but I'm interested. Reading other comments tells me it's getting a physical release. The lack of gyro controls is a deal breaker for the Switch version though. I might as well buy it for PS5 because it will at least be 60fps. Hopefully the PS5 version will have gyro, but I doubt it...

I'll give it a shot since it's on GamePass. If i like it, I'll buy a physical copy for Switch. From first glance it reminds me of Undertale. Which is another game I still need to play (in backlog)
