@speedracer216 I agree the original is a 6 or 7 for me. But replaying on the switch I am having a lot more fun this time around, I think because of the controls.
Gathering the tears of light in Twilight Princess was always a chore. I think they even removed some for the HD remake. Also, I love Splatoon, but I can only play Splatzones and Tower Control; I DESPISE the other modes.
Playing more Subnautica. I am still trying to figure out what to do. I built a base but can't find the right resources to upgrade certain things. I forced myself to play Pikmin 3 on the Wii U again. After four separate attempts of starting this game and not getting into it. I can confidently say I am hooked and am now a Pikmin fan.
I am replaying MGS5 right now on my PS5. The game is fantastic and is years ahead of its time. If it were released today, it would still be a high-quality modern experience. It's just a shame the game is incomplete.
I went to the midnight launch at GameStop here in southern California (9pm). There were about 200 people there. I brought my 3DS thinking it would be the only place where I would find some streetpass hits in 2023. I did not get a single one :')

Re: 3DS Emulator Citra Is Coming To Meta Quest Next Week
Why are all these nerds so anti piracy.
It's illegal because of capitalism, not because its morally wrong.
