Morsel

One of my all-time favourites. Both this and Ratatan will be day1 for me. Who needs a Switch 2?

I couldn’t get a Switch 2 this week, so sticking to the old one for a while. Last week I totally burnt out on Brothership, so couldn’t start something completely new. I played some of the Mario+Rabbids: Sparks of Hope (base game is so much better than Brothership) DLC The last spark hunter, I’ll try to finish it this weekend and maybe start Suikoden.

My 4th (and last) weekend with Mario & Luigi: Brothership. It had a lot of good moments, but was way too long.
Also a bit of Hello Kitty Island Adventure.
And have to find out, what to start next. Suikoden? Octopath 2?

I’ve just beaten my archenemy in Mario & Luigi: Brothership, his castle was a bit bland, but a big jump in difficulty. I’ll take my time with the rest, so probably finish the game next week(end).

Mario & Luigi: Brothership. I’m in the middle of the 3rd sea, so finishing that one and maybe the 4th, let’s see how long I can stay awake while playing. Game is starting to get very slow.
And a bit of Hello Kitty Island Adventure.

During the week I finished the Rayman DLC for Mario+Rabbids: Sparks of Hope. Not touched the other DLCs, because started Mario & Luigi: Brothership. I’ve just beaten the first big baddie, now doing side quests and heading for the 4th island. I’ve read so many negative critics about this game, but for now I love it.

7th and last weekend with Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition. 110 hours in, wrapping up the last affinity and story missions. Probably won’t go for 100%. My game of the year so far.
I’ll also boot up Hello Kitty Island Adventure, which I abandoned for XCX.
And maybe Mario+Rabbids: Sparks of Hope, as I bought the DLC pack in the latest sale.

My 6th weekend with Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition. Preparing for the big battle of chapter 12, wrapping up missions, leveling up, gearing up, etc. Let’s see what comes thereafter!

Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition on this nice sunny 4-days weekend. Started chapter 11, but not strong enough, so doing side quests and grinding a bit. Still so much to do after 70+ hours.

I wonder if people living with pacemaker can use it.

I have to take care of my joints anyway, so this is a big no for me.

Nothing new, same old Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition. 50 hours in, doing side quests, will start chapter 9 soon. So curious how the story unfolds.

If I think back how expensive SNES and it’s games were in Eastern Europe, I think now we are living in Paradise. I pray those times never come back.

@TrueBlueYoshi Just 2 problems: people without unlimited download limit are screwed and we have to pay for storage if we want to keep the game.

@Spider-Kev @Olliemar28
Yes, we need articles. We cannot leave a comment below a banner.

For me the biggest negative is to force us download games. I expected 128 GB cartridges.

@Teksette Ohh, I know now what twist you were talking about Yes, I was surprised, but I expect some more shocking twist. E.g. what are so many different aliens doing on this little planet?

@Teksette I am so curious, which chapter has this shocking twist? I’ll start 8th soon, am I far?

Finally weekend, this week was too disturbing, mixed feelings for Switch 2, crisis everywhere.
Not surprisingly playing Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition. Finished chapter 7, doing side quests. 39 hours spent, about 1/4 of the quests completed, this game is huge!

Not much to tell, Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition and nothing else. Finished chapter 5, currently doing side quests. Finally a game I can play for hours without falling asleep!

Why do we need Nintendo account for this? I never sign in on any other device than the Switch.

Amongst my all time favourite games, I’m so happy

Bye-bye Hello Kitty, moving to Mira. See you in 2 months!

@SGE2000 No. It still looks awful. I needed some time to get into the gameplay loop and turn a blind eye on graphics.

@FishyS I didn’t like it as much as DQ Treasures, but still think it’s an above average game. Definitely worth the double-discounted price.

@JohnnyMind How much do you pay for your discounted copies? Is there some extra discount or the usual 50 EUR price?

@CRB1984 I like it so far, although it’s quite simple: collect things, increase friendship levels, unlock and complete quests, rinse and repeat - with a daily limit. But my soul needs this at the moment.

Hello Kitty Island Adventure, which I bought today. Tetris and picross. Gave up on DQ3 for now. Waiting for XCX.

I really should get back into Dragon Quest III HD-2D and finish it before XCX coming. Collecting orbs, but I simply don’t like it. Also a bit of the new NSO GB games and Rayman Legends in the 3rd world.

@Zuljaras Yes, I wish the game prices were the biggest problem here

@Enigk I am one of them, but now I’m waiting for MK9.

Wrapping up the last case in my last AA game, Ace Attorney Investigations 2. So sad it’s over . If I have more time, then Dragon Quest III HD-2D and Wario Land 4.

I am even planning to buy more. What if the world turns upside down and Switch won’t be available anymore? If I have some spare ones, I can continue to play for decades.

Mostly Ace Attorney Investigations 2. Finishing soon the 2nd case (hilarious!) and starting the 3rd. Also a bit of Wario Land 4. Taking a break from Dragon Quest III HD-2D and Wario Land 3, but I want to finish all of these before 20th of March, guess why.

@1UP_MARIO Thanks, Alba looks really good, might buy it. It looks something like @Anti-Matter would enjoy too.

@NintendoByNature Same for me. Burnt myself with DQ3, FF Pixel Remaster, Chrono Cross. Back in the days I could give an arm and a leg for each JRPG, not many were released in Europe. But now I simply cannot get into them, meaning the old ones. But I love Xenoblade, big hopes in XCX.

In anticipation of Wario Land 4 I started Wario Land 3 on NSO and I cannot stop. So who knows if I can play my main game Dragon Quest III HD-2D, where I got the ship and have to find orbs, but still missing a key. Or progress in Ace Attorney Investigations 2.

During the week I finished Advance Wars 2 and started Dragon Quest III HD-2D. It’s the 4th remake/remaster I’m playing in a row. I’ll be playing nothing else in the weekend, as I want fully get into it. I already love the graphics and the music, but I’m not hooked yet.

Yesterday I finally finished Ace Attorney Investigations, the 5th case was terribly long, but all in all I loved this game. Time to start AAI2. In Advance Wars 2 I’m in the middle of the Gold Comet missions, starting to be tricky.

@AerosTactician If you think the 3rd case is boring, then wait for the 5th. I thought I would finish this weekend, but will not, it takes forever.

In Ace Attorney Investigations playing the 5th case. In case I finish this weekend, will start the 2nd game. Messing around with my backlog to find a secondary game, probably it will be Advance Wars 2 from the Reboot Camp. Played it on GBA, but never finished.

Same as last week. In Mario vs Donkey Kong, finished the plus worlds, now doing the expert levels. In Ace Attorney Investigations starting the 4th case.

After I finished the wild action game called Kirby and the Forgotten Land, I needed something more relaxing. So I started
Mario vs Donkey Kong, my 2nd Christmas game. Currently in world 6, loving it, but it’s not that relaxing, I thought it would be. Also playing Ace Attorney Investigations, starting the 3rd case.

I’ve been playing Kirby and the Forgotten Land whole week. It’s the perfect Christmas game! Yesterday I rolled the 2nd credits, now trying for 100%.
My plan was to finish Metroid Prime Remastered this year, but now I’m not sure I finish it at all. Arrived to Phazon Mines and it’s hard now and I suspect a lot of backtracking. Anyhow, I’ll give it a few more tries.

Where is Princess Peach: Showtime!?
I understand people think it’s easy, but not in the best 50 is unjust.
My personal best game of the year.

My main weekend game is still Metroid Prime Remastered.
But I have to admit, I could not resist anymore and started my holiday game (each year I have something cheerful and relaxing): Kirby and the Forgotten Land. I love how it’s full of ideas. Some missions are really mind blowing.

@FishyS I expected much higher number from you based on the weekend topic

I played most in 2024 (sub-titles are a must!)
1. Mario+Rabbids: Sparks of Hope
2. Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince
3. Master Detective Archives: Rain Code

Enjoyed the most
1. Mario+Rabbids: Sparks of Hope
2. Pricess Peach: Showtime!
3. Metroid Prime Remastered (not yet finished and might be replaced later by Kirby and the Forgotten Land)

Picross S6: finished during the week. Next will be the Sega one.
AW1+2 Reboot Camp: wrapped up AW campaign, now taking a break.
Metroid Prime Remastered: my main game till Xmas. In the snowy area. Progressing slowly, not an easy game going in blind.
BR Cyberfunk: playing when MP gets too much. In the 2nd big area. Very different from Tony Hawk, but still enjoying.

@JohnnyMind It’s enough to notify us if you get something not “physically discounted”from your usual retailer.
