Just playing some Mario Kart World with the girlfriend and some Hypnospace Outlaw by myself when I have free time. It is a very unique game.

As much as I do want a new 3D Mario game I have waited for a new 3D Donkey Kong for much, much longer. If this game causes a 3D Mario game to arrive later when it is usually an early game for a systems lifespan I guess that is a price I am willing to pay to get a new 3D Donkey Kong.

That being said I don't think it is going to be 4 to 5 years for a new 3D Mario. Maybe a couple years at most is what I am thinking.

I have found myself using Luigi, Lakitu, Donkey Kong and Mario the most. I used to only use Mario with the B-Dasher but I am diversifying my selections in this game. I love the designs of all the characters in this game.

I grew up renting Gex 3 Deep Cover Gecko incredibly often so I have a fondness for that game. It is one of the best 3D platformers on the N64 in my book, I am looking forward to experiencing this whole trilogy again, I never really thought it would be rereleased.

It always seemed like a series that was destined to be forgotten and I am glad that is not the case.

This is excellent news. I am currently playing the first game on Switch 2, one of my all time favorite rpgs and I have never played this one. I really hope it is a solid port and runs well.

I am actually pretty excited to try this version of the game on launch day, for too long I have dealt with a gimped version while playing portably. It will be nice to get the full experience with high frame rates, even with mouse controls on the TV.

Just beat Bear and Breakfast so I am not sure what I am wanting to play next. I am more or less just waiting for the Switch 2 to release so I can revisit some older games with upgrades.

Good thing I am not a real fan of them, mainly Randy himself. He gives me a very weird vibe.

No I am not personally, heck some of the games I plan on playing first on Switch 2 are Switch 1 games, with the free enhancements.

I know I have been going back to older games that are cheaper myself, last new game I bought was probably Tears of the Kingdom.

I have no intention of paying full price for games when I already have so many older games I have yet to experience. With sales and whatnot for me personally I have probably spent less on games than I ever have before, but I am still enjoying what I am playing.

I don't really ever get hyped for new games anymore.

F-Zero 99! This game is seriously addictive, don't know why I haven't played it until now.

Somehow yes I did. I had all sorts of issues trying to get one when the preorders opened last night but after I went to bed and woke up at 4am I tried again and somehow managed to snag one from Walmart. Very lucky because they are all sold out now.

@Ganner Ah so it essentially just gives you extra motivation to continue playing and challenging yourself. That's about what I expected. Luckily the game is pretty fun.

Still playing Hades myself. Just rolled the credits this morning so I am seeing if the game still has longevity beyond that in terms of the story before determining if I want to move on to something else. It has been a great time though.

I am currently playing through Hades. I have managed to get to the surface twice already and each time it is a really nice feeling accomplishing that. Game just gets more addicting the more stuff you unlock.

After finishing up DKC 3 I have decided to start up Hades on Switch. I know the game is old news at this point but I am having a good time with it.

Honestly since the Switch 2 is backwards compatible I am fine with them continuing to release games on the Switch, we can still enjoy them even on the new hardware hopefully with improvements.

I have been in an SNES mood recently so I am currently playing DKC 3 and am having a great time.

The soundtrack definitely isn't as good as the other games since it has a different composer but the gameplay is once again top notch. Looks really good on the OLED screen too.

It looks exactly like I expected, I can't believe after 8 years we have finally got the first look at new hardware. I don't tend to get hyped for new consoles or games but this probably will do the trick!

Well deserved. I recently bought it again on Steam Deck and have been enjoying it all over again.

Finished TES IV Oblivion this morning so I was ready to move on to something new.

After the recent Okami 2 announcement I was inspired to pick up the first game on Steam Deck in order to revisit it again. Still absolutely holds up.

Well deserved. It is a really good game with good vibes, something we need more of.

Technology like this is really cool. I am a big fan of preserving history for future generations to enjoy and reflect on.

I wish we could get a regular Sims game on a Nintendo platform. I know the Sims 4 port on PS4 isn't perfect in terms of control schemes but it would be the perfect type of game to play portably.

I finished up Dave the Diver and now I am playing Balatro. The dlc added into Dave the Diver gave me a taste of how Balatro played and I decided to delve into the full game and I am having a good time so far despite not managing a win just yet.

Great addition. We have been needing some F-Zero music on the service!

That Ho-Oh plushie looks awesome! Heartgold was the first Pokemon game I played and I have always enjoyed his design.

Donkey Kong Country is one of those few games that I can replay almost infinitely. It is like Jet Force Gemini, where I play through it almost yearly sometimes a couple times in a year even.

I still love the way the game looks and sounds, it brings me back to a simpler time and it is always fun when I can get my brother to join in for some co-op, me using the obviously superior Kong, that being Diddy. While I will agree the gameplay has been improved in the sequels that came to follow there is something about the original that makes it more likely for it to be the one I replay. It's such a timeless game.

I am currently playing Dave the Diver and it is a gem of a game. The gameplay loop is super addictive much like Stardew Valley so I will likely be putting alot of time into it this weekend.

This was fun. It is very interesting learning Switch user's habits. Next year should make for a very interesting survey with the Switch 2 most likely being out!

@GamingFan4Lyf Very true. Perhaps with more games added even, an upgraded version I would hope.

Dang. Glad I got it physically then on Switch. Wonder why it is being delisted since these are their own games and I would assume own all the licenses to them as a result.

It's my favorite indie game ever made so I am ok with him continuing to work on it honestly. It's so very good, one of the all time greats imo.

40 hours for a Mario and Luigi game is pretty beefy, between that and the positive impressions I am getting more excited for this game of a series I thought was dead after Alpha Dream was unfortunately shut down. I am glad this is a proper game in the series.

I am trying to finish up Banjo Tooie and if I manage that I may be starting up Dave the Diver.

I would hope adding music to the app would be a much quicker process than adding games to the Switch Online service. If they get their whole catalog on there someday that is some pretty solid value.

Obviously it is very early days but there are so many games I hope to see added, basically their entire N64 catalogue, but so far it is very promising. I am having a really good time with it.

I have been trying it. It is actually pretty cool although it isn't anything you can't already do on your phone via YouTube Music. It is kind of cool to have an official way to listen to the music though.

@ChromaticDracula I agree sometimes it is nice to play the games as they were originally intended. Warts and all. Hence why I am playing Banjo Tooie on the Switch Online service at the moment.

It is interesting that these games are remastered and also available on the Switch for purchase.

I don't see why I would play these OG N64 versions instead of the remasters other than trying to save a couple bucks but I am glad they are added nonetheless.

I did notice that when I left my OLED system in sleep mode over 24 hours it would lose 60 percent of the charge, I don't know if that has anything to do with the battery issues mentioned.

Having beaten Jet Force Gemini, I am currently playing through the newly added Banjo Tooie. Also have Dave the Diver and Balatro arriving physically today!

I was always hoping this would come to Switch as I had a hard time getting it to emulate properly. So far I am impressed with the results, it looks and plays great.

Perfect timing. I just bought the physical versions of both Balatro and Dave the Diver, it will be cool to see how they are implemented.

Dave the Diver has been a bit of an indie collab mecca recently.

In anticipation of Banjo Tooie coming to Switch Online next week I am playing another Rare classic, Jet Force Gemini!

Hope to have it finished by then.

@FredsBodyDouble Yes it is. I prefer the other two games I mentioned but Darkwood has a great atmosphere to it, lengthy too at around 20 hours for me to beat it.
General gameplay is gathering resources and exploring during the day so you have better odds of surviving the night, successfully doing so grants you extra resources to spend on traders for stuff like ammunition. After while you can get loaded on ammunition but you never feel like a one man army. Every night is tense even if nothing ever happens.

I was considering getting this one to play for spooky month but I already played Darkwood, Crow Country and Killer Frequency so this one may have to wait until next year or whenever I need another horror fix, moving on to a different genre for now. This game has always intrigued me though.

Awesome I have been waiting on this one for awhile! I was wondering when they were going to add it!

I am attempting to finish up Darkwood and if I manage that I may end up getting Crow Country to give that a try.

I have had my eye on this one for awhile, I just love the look of it. It could be a great game to play for spooky month.
