Yeah I think he was right on this one. Jungle Beat was great though!

I had Gamepass for a few months and then realized it was kinda stressing me out with too many game options and I wasn't even playing much from it, so I cancelled. Got a ton of games from itch.io bundles to play anyway.

I've gotta get more excited for this game. I loved Splatoon and Splatoon 2 so much, but I'm worried I may not be ready for more just yet? Guess I'll get it and find out!

First big reason to look forward to 2023! We've still got Splatoon 3 this year, and lots of other great games to play in the meantime.

I haven’t played Coffee Talk but I’ve listened to the soundtrack on Spotify a ton. Great calming music for when I’m having a hard time. My condolences to his friends and family ☹️

Aww I don’t normally play mobile games but I put a lot of time into this one. I’d love to see it come to Switch in some form, it’s got some great characters. Sad to see it wrap up ☹️

Looks kinda cute to be honest.

It makes me sad to think there will be no legitimate way to play the Pushmo and original Box Boy games after this ☹️

Guess it's time for me to play through Earthbound again haha. This release was pretty unexpected.

Yay! I haven't watched many of their videos lately but always liked them. Glad they'll keep creating content together!

This oughta look great on the Switch screen.

Well this is kinda insane. Is there anything the original Gameboy can't do? haha

I'm trying to be skeptical, but this game really does look good and is sorta winning me over! I think the most impressive part for me is the really nice UI art. The last few Pokemon games haven't been so great in that department, but this one looks really slick.

Just Shapes and Beats made me a fan of these devs so I'll definitely give this a try.

This is cool! Rive was a blast.

How the heck am I actually excited for this. Video game movies aren't supposed to be good!? And this is a sequel even! From that little clip Knuckles does sound pretty great, Tails too. Can't wait to see more Jim Carey as well.

This does what Nintendon't.

So cool! I'll be going back for this for sure. I still haven't "finished" this game and I wish I was better at it so I could. Such a tough game.

Ooh I've been waiting for this.

A more powerful Switch might be able to run Hollow Knight at 1080p in docked mode. This means we need a more powerful Switch for Silksong. Everything else is irrelevant.

I'm so happy this chair, and gyroids, are finally making an appearance.

This is sorta weird? The whole point of a glass screen is that it's more scratch resistant, but it can shatter. So they put a non-replaceable plastic film over it to protect you from shatters, but this film is probably more likely to get scratched? I would have just preferred a plastic screen that I could put a replaceable glass screen protector onto

I was really hoping they’d increase the music volume in the first patch. I’ve been playing with the sfx at half an my tv volume cranked 😅

So much Silent Hill inspiration in the fonts and UI. Looks neat though.

I loved the first two and this one is definitely looking to exceed them! Also loved the Lappy cameo, does this mean there's gonna be some crossover with the Astral Chain world?

Guess I can dismantle my coffee shop placeholder since it's going in the museum after all haha.

I tried the demo for this today and it's gooooooooooooooood. If it had come out in the GBA days it would have been one of the best games available I think.

Ooh great update! If they're taking requests, I'd love to see button remapping in the final update.

Actually I'd really just like to be able to use "B" as cancel. It works in the menus, so why not have it work everywhere?

Ooh Sufjan Stevens inspired music? I'll have to keep an eye out for this one.

I enjoyed this game but I found the amount of limited time events and content actually became overwhelming after a while. I’d rather they slowed it down a bit to be honest.

Pretty cool move! How is the ping system in Apex Legends different from the one in something like League of Legends though? I haven’t really played it much.

I’ve listened to the Celeste soundtrack more than anything else I’m sure. Such a talented composer!

This is one of those games that would require minimal effort for a remaster. It still looks great with the pixely low res graphics. I just hope they can license the fantastic soundtrack, it just isn’t the same without it.

Maybe this fixes the weirdness with Fi’s dialogue font?

Well this is a great surprise! I'll check it out later today. Loved this game.

I played this for a few minutes over the weekend and it looks sooo good. Anyone else notice the glitch with Fi's dialogue font though? I wonder if they'll patch it.

Unless my current Switch suddenly bites the dust I'll past on this. Those white joycons however! I hope they sell em separately!

Gotta say I'm excited this game is getting another chance. I hope people will go back to it and see how great it can be.

• Streamlined item information: Explanations for collectable items, such as insects and materials, only appear the first time the item is collected

This is probably my most wanted change!

I just got this game recently and am enjoying it, but there are definitely improvements that could be made. Maybe the devs read this site, so I’ll list my thoughts:

• No way to view the area goals once you’re in a level? I figure having this would be obvious, even if it was just thrown on the quests menu.
• Double tapping to dodge on the analog is very hard to do I find. Would be nice if a single quick movement left or right would trigger it.
• When moving the analog just a little left or right the character moves really slow, but her animation is running. Feels like the animation could be slowed down to match.
• Maybe enemies could get up a little quicker? Or have less invincibility time when they’re down?
• Also the recovery time after dodging is just a little too slow, making it feel clunky.
• I would love it if the character could dash somehow. The movement speed makes exploring feel a bit tedious.
• Your hat and mask change in 3D sections, but the clothes are always the same?
• The character seems to fall out of the bottom of those water orbs a little too quickly, considering it’s water.
• Some sort of notification to let me know when there are new items to craft/forge. Checking those characters every day for new stuff is pretty repetitive as their dialog rarely changes.

Probably sounds like nitpicking, but I really like the game and find it very addictive. These little things do hold it back a bit however.

Looks nuts, I'll have to check it out.

I tried this demo with pretty low expectations, and was really surprised! The game looks nice, runs really well, combat feels good, and it seems to have an interesting story. I'm not sure how it holds up to the original as I haven't played it in ages, but I have to say I'm almost sold on it. (Oh and the loading before and after battles is a little long, but it's not too bad since you've got some decent music to listen to while waiting.)

I'd actually enjoy it if they gave Fi more casual lines of dialog. Stuff that isn't "tutorial" related, but just maybe have her comment on things in the world occasionally without slowing you down. I liked her as a character, but wished was around a little more outside of the constant reminders.

I've been playing this daily lately actually. Just recently realized how fun the multiplayer is.

Congrats to the development team! This has been on my wishlist for a while so I'll play it eventually for sure.

Apple Arcade does have a couple neat games, but it wasn't enough for me to stay subscribed to it. I really enjoyed Card of Darkness and Inmost.

Breath of the Wild looked pretty rough when we first saw it as well, but then didn't Monolith Soft get involved? Maybe they'll be able to help with this game as well.

Wario Land 3! And then probably Metal Gear: Ghost Babel. (I refuse to call it Metal Gear Solid.)

The art and animation in this look fantastic! I've been listening to the 2064 ROM soundtrack quite a bit since I played it. Maybe I'll give this one a try when it comes out.

Me and my girlfriend noticed that the current seasonal item is different in each of our games. She has a cool doll display, and I have a little pink lamp, so make sure to check with friends in case there are others to get.
