Mostly Cyberpunk 2077: map is almost empty, time to continue with the story, mid of Act 2. Hello Kitty Island Adventure: done for today, some new things will open up in Merry Meadow and Icy Peak tomorrow.
@Friendly Thanks for checking, but I would rather hear from experience of those who had problem with it. It is marked compatible from the start, still it was not working for those who have it from eshop.
@Yalloo If I exclude the recent big games like ToTK, Xenoblade or Cyberpunk, such games are in my top10: Final Fantasy X Front Mission 3 Zelda Oracle of Ages/Seasons Pokemon Gold Dragon Quest Builders 2 Tony Hawk 3 Dark Cloud 2 Diablo 3 As for rhythm games, my big favorite is Theatrhythm.
Mostly Cyberpunk 2077. Only at the beginning of Act 2, but already level 30. I’ve been doing side content all week, now it’s time to make some progress in the story. In Patapon 2 finished the story this morning, but surely won’t stop here. Also ticking off some quests in Hello Kitty Island Adventure.
@Ramouz There was a big update on the base game not long ago when the new paid DLC was released. I did not buy the DLC, but @FishyS put many hours in it.
@Ramouz I feel similar to @slowpoke_tail, although the burn-out came a bit later, like after 40 hours. Still I sometimes get back to it and have some fun.
After finishing Bananza I decided to start the other game I bought with Switch 2, namely Cyberpunk 2077. (Pokemon Z-A was the other contender.) I was afraid that the setting and the gameplay are too far from my taste, but after a few hours I got sucked in. This is the western answer to Final Fantasy, an amazing game! I am at the part where the whole city opened up, lot of side quests to do. I am also playing Hello Kitty Island Adventure and Patapon 2.
I’ve already played some Patapon 2, where I’m closing to the end, but each mission is a new level of nightmare now, and Hello Kitty Island Adventure, well, this one will never end. My main game will be Bananza, where I’m at 737/777 bananas. Thinking on what to start next. Did not dare to buy Pokemon, waiting for opinions from fellow players.
I’m in the last dungeon of Wind Waker, must be very close to the end. I loved it, especially the earth and wind temples. Now give me TP! After I finish WW, I’ll be back to Bananza, Hello Kitty Island Adventure and Patapon 2.
In Wind Waker I’m on my way to the 4th dungeon, I want to complete that and maybe the 5th. Doing some rounds in Bananza, at 565/777. Might look back to Hello Kitty Island Adventure.
Doing postgame in Bananza, I already collected about 60% of the stuff. In Wind Waker I’ll do the 3rd dungeon and beyond. Maybe a bit of Klonoa on NSO, 2nd world. Patapon 2 and Hello Kitty Island Adventure are on hold, I simply cannot juggle between that many games.
Too many things going on. Yesterday started Wind Waker on NSO, this will be my main game for the weekend. I am a bit burnt out on Bananza, still I’ll surely collect some dozens of bananas. And the usual rounds in Patapon 2 and Hello Kitty Island Adventure.
This morning I finished the story of Bananza, now collecting stuff. In Patapon 2 I’m stuck at a hard mission mid-game, I want to pass somehow. And the usual rounds in Hello Kitty Island Adventure.
Last weekend with the new Switch 2 and Bananza, a bit of Patapon 2 and Hello Kitty Island Adventure was like Xmas, birthday and children’s day at the same time. I’d like a similarly good weekend this week.
Patapon 2: I wanted to take a longer break between 1 and 2, but could not resist. Octopath Traveler 2: finished one chapter 1 and I’m not hooked at all. I’ll try to do another one this weekend. Hello Kitty Island Adventure: thanks to @FishyS ‘s nice comments I got back to it and enjoying much more than before. Fantasy Life i: I’ll try to find some rare material collecting groups.
Fantasy Life i: grinding for materials for the last 2 hero crafting lives, doing mainly treasure groves in multiplayer. Patapon 1: grinding for level 4 materials before starting the last few missions. Return to Monkey Island: want to finish finally this afternoon. Let’s see if I can start my next game, Octopath Traveler 2.
Fantasy Life i and Patapon fighting for my time. In FL working on master and hero ranks. In Patapon grinding for a better army, because stuck on the desert worm boss.
Finished the story in Fantasy Life i, now mastering lives: blacksmithing, tailoring, paladin. Also a few levels in Patapon. This will be rather a weekday game, my hurting thumb is not able to do much at a time. One of the best games ever!
Fighting oak and palm trees in Fantasy Life i. Started yesterday, I could not resist anymore. Rarely buy digital games at full price, but had to make an exception with this one. Also try to finish Return to Monkey Island, which was my main game last weekend. If Fantasy Life allows.
It rings a bell, but I enjoyed the rhythm, the sound so much, I didn’t mind it. I also remember grinding a lot. I had much more patience back then. I hope it won’t be a disappointment this time.
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.
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.

Re: Hello Kitty Island Adventure - Switch 2 Edition Now Available, Includes Paid Upgrade For Switch
No way I pay 10 euros for this, game is already running perfectly as it is, at least for my taste.

Is Klonoa already fixed?
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (6th November)
Mostly Cyberpunk 2077.
Some Patapon 2 post-game.
Hello Kitty Island Adventure, where it seems the story will conclude soon, but who knows.

Re: Hello Kitty Island Adventure - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition Has Been Rated
After 50 hours I still cannot decide whether this is a game or a task list covered by pink icing

Re: Nintendo Expands Switch 2's GameCube Library Next Week With A Spooky Classic
@SirLink Thanks, I enjoyed Wind Waker. There are games with poorer graphics released nowdays. Switch 2 was worth for this game alone.

@Nintendo4Sonic I really care about others. And if no one cares about me, I don’t mind, at least this is a nice diary to look back to.
Re: Community: 32 Switch Games We Missed, As Recommended By You
@psyraven76 I would give an arm and a leg for Caesar III, Pharaoh and Zeus on Switch!

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (30th August)
Finished a short but sweet game called “transfer account to Switch 2”.
Now I’m a happy monkey!

Re: Feature: Nintendo Life eShop Selects (July 2025)
I got Patapon, it’s as good as I remember. Might be a bit grindy, but not annoyingly. A delightful cozy little game.

Leveling Lives in Fantasy Life i. No time to comment more.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (28th June)
Fantasy Life i took over all my free time. I am so happy to work all day!
Re: Nintendo Download: 26th June (North America)
In my opinion Front Mission 3 is the real highlight of the week. One of the best games on PS.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (21st June)

Re: Beloved PSP Title 'Patapon' Looks Adorable In New Remaster Overview Trailer
@Princess_Lilly I don’t remember them being extremely difficult, but let’s see how it works now with my arthritic hands.
Re: Beloved PSP Title 'Patapon' Looks Adorable In New Remaster Overview Trailer
One of my all-time favourites. Both this and Ratatan will be day1 for me. Who needs a Switch 2?
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition (7th June)
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.

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.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (10th May)
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.

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.

Re: Talking Point: How Does Switch 2's Launch Price Compare To Past Nintendo Systems?
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.
