I played a little Mario Party 2 (N64) and Mario Golf (GBC) for my weekend retro dosage. I also continued on the expansion of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (Switch) and finally I decided to continue a save file I had abandoned over 3 years ago on my DS. I'm talking about Dragon Ball Z: Goku Densetsu. I had played over 30 hours, so it would be a shame if I don't beat it at some point.
1) The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (Switch): I'm playing the last main quest (2nd expansion).
2) Super Mario Party Jamboree - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Jamboree TV: I'm playing the Jamboree TV expansion with my friends.
3) Mario Golf (Game Boy Color): Yeah... On the original cartridge! I just decided to continue my old save and beat the game. I'm about at 60%.
4) SpongeBob Squarepants: Battle for Bikini Bottom - Rehydrated (PS4): Started playing it with my gf.
After beating FINAL FANTASY TACTICS ADVANCE (GBA) 2 weeks ago and NEED FOR SPEED: PORSCHE UNLEASHED (GBA) last week, this week was the time of MOCO MOCO FRIENDS (3DS). So, in the spirit of wrapping up old game saves from handheld consoles, this weekend I decided to continue my almost 10year old save from MARIO GOLF (GBC). I also continued my 100hour save of THE LEGEND OF ZELDA: BREATH OF THE WILD (Switch).
I also started playing 2 more new games: LUIGI'S MANSION 2 HD (Switch) and FAR CRY INSTINCTS (Xbox)...Yeah, on the original Xbox.
First of all... I finally beat FINAL FANTASY TACTICS ADVANCE on the GBA during the week and I'm really proud about that! I also played some Mario Kart World and Super Mario Party Jamboree: Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Jamboree TV with some friends.
Now for the weekend... I'm out in another city to enjoy the carnival, so I thought I should only bring something light for the "dead" spaces of time in between, which are gonna be only a few... So I brought (and started)... NEED FOR SPEED: PORSCHE UNLEASHED on the GBA! Just continuing my GBA streak with my only NFS on the console. 😜 And yeah, it's bad.
I first played (and beat) it on the Game Boy Advance as NES Classics: The Legend of Zelda (here in Europe). But... I can proudly say that I now am an owner of the original release on the NES in its complete state and am going to play it there too soon!
This weekend was FINAL FANTASY TACTICS ADVANCE's (GBA) 23rd birthday and coincidentally i reached the final mission of the game after spending another 8 hours playing and reaching 61h total doing almost every side quest available too...! I'm going to beat it this week though... No more sidequests!
Apart from that, I made progress with my cousins on MARIO PARTY 2 (N64) during our retro evenings and some progress on THE LAST OF US REMASTERED (PS4) with my gf.
P.S.: I had preordered Mario Tennis Fever and I received it on Thursday, but didn't get the chance to start it yet!
My birthday presents on Thursday (35 now...) were Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade and Donkey Kong Bananza! Buuuuut... I'm spending the weekend continuing The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild on the original Switch 'cause I'm hooked and want to finish it. 😊
This weekend I kept it simple and casual...! 1) Hello Neighbor (PS4) - I'm halfway through Act 3, so almost done with this weird game. and... 2) Moco Moco Friends (3DS eShop) - I decided to continue my save from the times I was working as an editor/reviewer in a Greek gaming site and the Chief Editor decided against publishing a review for this game, so I was left with it in my 3DS memory! I'm on chapter 20 out of 27 btw.
1st) The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (Switch) - 80 hours
2nd) Mario Kart World (Switch 2) - 56 hours
3rd) Super Mario Party Jamboree (Switch) - 35 hours
I played 17 games and 222 hours. It was way more than I expected, since this year I also played and beat games on GameCube, Wii, 3DS, PSP, PS4, PS5 and PC!
This weekend I continued playing Final Fantasy Tactics Advance (GBA) and I also started playing for the first time the original Paper Mario on the N64 as a retro event with my cousin.
I am continuing my first playthrough of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (Switch) while also making progress on Final Fantasy Tactics Advance (GBA). I also just beat Puzzle & Dragons Z + Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition (3DS) after more than 5 years of playing it piece by piece! Finally, I started 5 days ago and moving on with The Callisto Protocol (PS5).
Mostly continuing my saves from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (Switch) and Final Fantasy Tactics Advance (GBA). I also played a little of Puzzle & Dragons Z & Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition (3DS), on the final world of the Mario game, having already beaten Z.
Finally, I also played some The Last of Us Remastered (PS4) with my gf.
Super Mario Party Jamboree (Switch):
4-player offline with the gang. Party mode/Motion Island, gathering achievements.
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (Switch): Took me 8 years to finally decide to start it. Now I'm clearing my 2nd Divine Beast.
Mario Kart World (Switch 2): Free roaming for P's and Peach Medallions (365 & 152 respectively), online play with my buddy.
The Last of Us Remastered (PS4): Progressing the story with my gf. I have also beat the original on the PS3 and the standalone expansion Left Behind on the PS4.
Final Fantasy Tactics Advance (GBA):
Progressing the story in between other sessions in order to get my body ready for The Ivalice Chronicles. I have also beat Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift (DS) around 15 years ago.

Re: Poll: Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 Has A Final Title, But What Could It Be?
Final Fantasy VII Reset.
It's on the same pattern for something that it's beginning again (like Remake and Rebirth), but more "final".
