That's not an infographic, that's just a bunch of game logos. Infographic is when we get some insight missing from a plain list of titles.

Why use mangled music from the "pirates"? It lost ots original charm and gained nothing.

The title is funny because in Russian "ikai" means "start hiccuping". And this is a horror game, so that's a possibility.

Note that DLCs are included with the Switch release. And it's often discounted to ~7€.

At last! Almost finished XC1, and will watch XC2 cutscenes on youtube just to get the entire story. I absolutely love how they introduced music to this new chapter.

I'm in the penultimate chapter of Xenoblade Chronicles DE right now. I don't plan to play XC2, but I hope they announce XC3 just to marvel at graphics.

I know chances as slim, but I really hope The Artful Escape goes on sale

@Coxula it's a private weekly newsletter that aggregates Switch news. I checked a few past entries and decided to subscribe. They've been doing these surveys for ~five years it seems.

The most difficult question is to pick ONE thing to improve. Yeah, I chose folders of course.

I'm absolutely amazed at how I didn't drop Switch after three months of playing. Like all other consoles I have. It's been a fantastic year with the console, I've finished like 40 games and have a good backlog to keep me occupied for the next few years.

I'm finishing Murder by Numbers — already at A rank at the final case. But I missed one puzzle in the third case, as did many. Here's a spoiler-less hint from Steam: "When a character called Crispin or something similar turns up, make sure you do all your inspects first in the bar or you can miss something".

Got it recently from german amazon for €25 — it's sold out now.

As for multiple accounts, I have a regional and an US one: two is enough for region-locked and discounted games.

Nintendo Windows release confirmed!

Original Switch: 2017. Lite: 2019. OLED: 2021. There's a high chance we'll get something in late 2023. Which is still a long way away though.

Weird to have "kinda small" and "6 hours" next to each other, especially for an Annapurna game Also, it's closer to four.

Switch has enough rhythm games, so one where you have to press Y to shred is not a bad thing. I just hope the presentation can reach SWH's heights, so you feel the awesomeness of the moment and hair rise at the back of your neck.

I agree with anoyonmus on that cloud gaming defeats the point of Switch: playing on the go and resuming instantly in a game. Selling the access for a full price of a game is ridiculous.

Also, I've recently played demos of the first two games (Control and Guardians), and it felt strange to me that they both had a complex weapons and fighting systems, and lots of random creatures to shoot at. What's the point, and why can't I enjoy the story without killing hundreds of living creatures behind every corner?

So yeah, downloadable indies on Switch >>> cloud-based AAA on Switch.

The narration is quite engaging!

Proof of stake is a nice idea, but no popular crypto implements it, including ETH that NFTs are based on.

I recommend this great 2 hour video by Folding Ideas on the topic of crypto, NFT and popular pro-NFT arguments: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQ_xWvX1n9g

Has anybody seen Artful Escape? Can't find it on the russian eShop, and it isn't in this list.

I should mention there's a Twine literary game called "The Uncle Who Works For Nintendo": https://ztul.itch.io/the-uncle-who-works-for-nintendo

Cool, now can we have Supaplex and Rollin please All the great games we played in school.

@CharlieGirl Yeah, Pico Park is among the best multiplayer games, and it supports 5+ players. I guess it's the only co-op game for a group of that size. We had so much fun with it!

I'm pretty sure Kinduo would be a great introduction to puzzle-platformers to play with a kid. And it most likely will go on sale this year.

Looks like Pode 2D.

I so hope it is a long awaited sequel to Sayonara Wild Hearts — full of music and ambition!

I like how every review mentions low difficulty. Maybe this could be a shmup for me

I again would like to remind you all about Hexceed — a Minesweeper turned into a puzzle game, with 472 free levels, full touch screen support, and a dozen addon packs with hundred more levels each. Spent ~35 hours on it, feels like a good alternative to picross puzzles.

Finished Yoku's Island Express yesterday (well, decided to stop at 88%), and it was so much fun, can't recommend enough. Finally a metroidvania that's not too punishing.

To me, the best tetris is Tetris II on ZX Spectrum, but alas it's in past. Great list — I've played only Tetris Effect from it, bought Fata Morgana and low-key looking for discounted 3D World and Quake.

Of five 2021 games I've played, Doki Doki Literature Club would be the best.

Amazing news! I hope they also include translations — Russian pirates did a great job on these.

Side Stories of DDLC were to me as great as the game itself. I even made my daughter watch these, and she liked the stories a lot.

This one was the highlight of the show. Finished Wandersong recently, and would love to try something new from Greg.

For picross fans I'd recommend hexceed: first 400 levels are free, excellent touch screen support, and engaging enough to sink hundreds of hours into.

(It's not picross, closer to Minesweeper, but feels similar)

Getting Thunder in Paradise vibes from the trailer.

Moments like this one I regret having a non-EU account.

Yay, new hexceed levels! Spending as much time with it on Switch as with various picross games on 3DS.

This looks sooo much better than the original!

«My games reviewed to games owned ratio is now 1615/2312» — from eShopperReviews, my favourite games journalist. This reveal puts these numbers in perspective I wonder who else has 33%+ of all games on eshop.

Came here late to share the joy of Hexceed. It's a Minesweeper with additional rules and levels! And it has half a thousand levels for free, with more in paid DLC. Do try it, to me it's better than picross now.

This DP teaser trailer is even better than the movie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmnkAOO6Qo4

The Sonic one was great, I'm eagerly waiting for the sequel. Pikachu movie... Was fun, but I'd prefer the game.

Hey! Pikmin is the only one I've finished, and the 3 Deluxe is waiting on my shelf, I've done the demo for it. I'd say the 3DS game was quite relaxing and straightforward, I liked it for its simplicity and visuals.

Peppa and George are voiced by other actors

Love this style, for that price will probably buy on the first day.

Playing it and why it get so unexpectedly fast at some levels? Very frustrating Amazing experience, just not very relaxing.

Regarding rhythm games like Cadence of Hyrule, most of these have a calibration screen that measures your reaction and audio lag, and adjusts the gameplay accordingly.

I'm both happy and... yesterday I got my bluetooth to usb-c adapter on which I've spend 40€ specifically for my Switch

So this game has got an online multiplayer this month, and its new trailer caught my attention. I immediately bought it, and oh my god how good it is! Basically it's a puzzle-based cooperative multiplayer for 2 to 8 (!) players. We had five people play it at some point, and it's so fun! No task is too hard, but cooperation — and learning the rules — make playing tricky and rewarding. The game is cheap, and unlike many party games on eShop, delivers quality gameplay on each of its levels. I'm honestly impressed, and puzzled at why there's zero coverage for this game. If you've got people to play with, install Pico Park, you won't be disappointed.

Reading this, tried to enter the code on the page. Didn't expect it to work and it didn't

Just stood up from playing SWH in the album mode. Just because I felt I needed some music in my day. This game is amazing.

$5 on eShop until 23rd. I'm tempted to buy.

@Little_Squee It's been on sale this June on the russian eShop, maybe in others too: https://psprices.com/region-ru/game/2608240/firewatch (use this site to email you when games you subscribed to are on sale. Works without paid subscription)
