Most of this weekend will be spent playing Luigi’s Mansion. Outside of that, I’ve also been revisiting my island in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, over the last couple of days as well.
Much like last weekend, and for that matter, the majority of this week, I will be dedicating time to playing Pokemon Legends: Z-A this weekend. As for the NSO side of things, I’ve been playing some F-Zero GX on the GameCube app. There is also a game called Cocoon that I’ve been playing as well, on my PS5.
If there is one thing that I've learned, since becoming a dad, it's that Bluey is right up there with Paw Patrol and Peppa Pig, as things I'm OK with never seeing again.
For me, it was between Tepig and Totodile... ultimately I ended up going with Baco... err, Tepig. That said, I already have my all-time favorite starter Pokemon, that of course being Squirtle, so I'm a happy camper, no matter what.
I kicked off my weekend of gaming, by playing some G-Darius HD, I’ve played through it a few times now, it has always been a fun game IMO. With that said, the main game that I’ll be playing is none other than Pokemon Legends: Z-A. Last but not least, I’ve also been playing Mario Strikers on the GameCube app. I'm currently sitting at six wins, three losses, and one sudden death loss, via the Custom Battle mode.
I've already pre-ordered my copy, just a couple of more days, and I can't wait to dive into a new Pokémon adventure. I already decided that I will be picking Tepig as my starter Pokémon (debating if I should call it Bacon or not).
I finally got myself a Switch 2, so a good portion of this weekend (when not spending Canadian Thanksgiving with family), will be spent playing Mario Kart World. Outside of that, Sunday is also the Solosis community day event in Pokemon Go, so I’ll be playing that for a bit as well.
Somehow that doesn't surprise me with Nintendo. Love the company, but that's some BS. After everything with Palworld, seems hypocritical to release a game with Minecraft elements.
Yea, if I'm expected to pay more, for first party games, then I think it's more than fair, to expect Nintendo to be putting out 10/10 games. At the very least, this just means that I need to be more selective on what games I buy, and Nintendo might not always win out.
This weekend, I’m looking to go retro, with some recent additions to Nintendo Switch Online, with Fatal Fury 2, and of course Super Ninja Boy. On the Game Boy Advance side of things, there is Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team, so it should be a fun weekend of retro gaming.
This weekend sees a community day classic event in Pokemon Go, so I’ll be playing that for a bit. I will also continue to play through some more of Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League.
The main game I’ll be playing is Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League on my PS5. With that said, I did play some of Vectorman earlier in the day as well. I might throw in some Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, as I’m still hyped AF about the Switch 2 first look trailer.
I started my weekend of gaming, by playing F-Zero: GB Legend via the GBA app, earlier in the day. In a bit, I’ll finally be diving into Sonic x Shadow: Generations, no doubt playing that for the majority of the weekend. I might squeeze in some time for WWE 2K24, play through a few shows in universe mode.
It’s a new year, which means another playthrough of my all-time favorite game… that of course being Super Mario World. This weekend also sees Sprigatito getting the community day treatment, in Pokémon Go, so I’ll be spending some time with that as well.
As for me, I'll be playing Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow, as my primary game. Outside of that, I’ll probably play a quick(ish) game of Super Mario Party Jamboree, with my wife and kids as well.
I recently started playing Maneater again, because nothing screams spooky season, quite like going around and eating people as a shark. I will also be playing Pokemon Go, with Sewaddle being featured as this weekend’s community day Pokemon.
As far as this weekend goes, I’m still making my way through Coromon, should have that wrapped up this weekend (will definitely be doing future playthroughs). Once I finish that, I’ll be looking to start Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance. Maybe some Super Smash Bros: Ultimate, with the kids as well.
The main game, that I'll be playing, is Coromon, which I've been enjoying. I’ll also be playing some Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, with my kids. With Battletoads & Double Dragon being added to Nintendo Switch Online, I’ll play that for a bit as well.

Personally, I wouldn't mind voice acting, for the cut scenes.
Re: Poll: Which Starter Pokémon Did You Choose In Pokémon Legends: Z-A?

Re: Review: Pokémon Legends: Z-A - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition - Stellar Battles, But A Step Down From Arceus

Re: Pokémon Pokopia Looks Like An Adorable Mix Of Minecraft And Animal Crossing
I'm getting some Minecraft like vibes.
Somehow that doesn't surprise me with Nintendo. Love the company, but that's some BS. After everything with Palworld, seems hypocritical to release a game with Minecraft elements.

Re: Switch 2 Games Cost A Bit More Than You're Probably Expecting
