Really interesting to read through! Thanks for sharing :)

Maybe. It’s definitely good at what it does, playing music.

I really like this app. Though it does seem to have google tracking according to duckduckgo. Maybe inevitable because it’s getting the music data from YouTube? But that would mean that it wouldn’t work while blocking the trackers, but it does work. I don’t know, just felt it was worth pointing out.

Besides that, pretty nice app. Works well, has a nice UI.

But the gamepad battery is easily replaced? Easier than on a Nintendo Switch or Switch Pro Controller for sure.

Interesting that you dropped Octopath Traveler. Maybe it’s the better choice.

I for myself have still been playing Super Mario 3D World. Got to the last world, finally. And yeah, the last level, Champion’s Road, is indeed very hard. I’ve already heard of it multiple times and yep, a real challenge. Not sure if I even want to continue. I guess it would be a great achievement to have beaten that level, but it’s not really that much fun to play a hard level over and over again. So maybe I’m just gonna stop here, with everything else at 100% exept that level.

I have also been playing Okami. The start wasn’t really that great, but I feel like it’s getting better the more I play. I’m still not really that far though, so I’ll have to see what else that game has to offer. I do like the paintbrush mechanic, it’s an interesting way to give the player more abilities the further you progress, and I’m looking forward to see what other ideas the devs have.

The artstyle is obviously pretty great, Okami’s visuals have hold up very well. It literally looks like you’re playing a painting.

Overall, I’m looking forward to playing it some more.

In this weekly thread, we don’t mind where you play, you can mention all your current games

Oh, that’s great to hear

would love to hear what you think about it

I’ll let ya know when the time comes :)

Would probably just get Okami HD on Switch though

Yeah, that makes a lot more sense. Higher resolution, maybe better controls, and of course on a newer system. I just like to check games out on the console they originally released on, even if it’s usually not the best way to play anymore. I think it’s just interesting to see how a game was originally designed without any changes made to it.

Super Mario 3D World is very good. I don’t recall if I did all the endgame content or not, but I did finish it. I would actually like something like that again.

That’s why I came back to it. Having many, shorter levels is nice if you just want to play a while without sinking hours into a game at a time (but that’s still possible of course. Replaying a level mutiple times just to get every star, stamp or golden flagpole is cool, too). And besides that, 3D World is just a good game. Great music, controls, level design and a harder difficulty later if you want a real challenge.

I really hope the sequel is better. My brother got me a copy for my birthday a while ago. Haven’t played it yet, though I do look forward to it. I also heard it’s better than the first one. I’ll see.

I’m mainly playing Okami on PS2 currently, but that’s not a Nintendo console of course. When it comes to Nintendo, I’m playing Mario Kart DS every now and then. I’m finding a new appreciation for this game somehow. It’s really good. Great multiplayer game, cool courses, good music and of course the nice battle mode (forgot what it was called).

I’m also playing Super Mario 3D World again. I have a savefile that I started in, what, 2019? Got really far and played through the story, getting every green star along the way. I basically 100%ed the game until the Bowser world. For some reason, I stopped after that. I don’t remember planning that. I somehow just turned my Wii U off for the day and never returned to that game for some reason, I don’t know. In any case, I started playing through the extra worlds. 3D World really has a lot of endgame content. I’m interested to see if I can finally bring that savefile to 100%, even if it took me years. It’s still a great game btw, in case you never played it. I highly recommend it.

I wanted to love Octopath Traveler. I loved the music, story, battle system and visuals.

Unfortunately, I didn’t get much further than you are right now. Twice. I tried it twice.

The reason I gave up 2 times was the grinding. It gets ridiculous after you get the 8 characters. It got bad enough that it really destroyed any fun I had with the game. It really sucks, because I like everything else about OT.

It’s such a shame. MK8 is turning a decade old soon. I just want a new MK. Fuck the Switch, man

I mostly agree with you. But really, the Wii U wasn’t that bad. It’s slow af, yes, but it’s still fun to use. More than the switch for sure. I’ve been revisiting the console a bit lately due to the Nintendo Network shutdown, and the funky menu with the music and the Miis still puts a smile on my face.

Yeah, it looks pretty cool. I’m gonna take a break from the series, but I’ll definitely check it out at some point too.

It is. Finished Trials and Tribulations last week. What an adventure.

hey man, just wanted to say thanks for posting this! didn’t knew about the project before, so it’s cool that you spread the word.

Just downloaded the demo. Gonna check that out later. The game looked interesting in the trailers.

Have been playing the Ace Attorney Trilogy, Trials and Tribulations to be exact. I’m only at the second case, and it’s already pretty good. I love the storytelling and characters!

I got back into Super Mario Odyssey, after like 5 years. Just felt the desire to play it again and man, does it take me back to 2017/18. Still just as fun.

I hope they’ll do a physical release too.

Where’s the problem? I’ve just looked through their page and it seems like they really improved it. Now I might consider getting one too, dammit

Great question, always wondered about that too. Interesting to read through the answers.

they were great for a while still, after LCDs came on the market

and they are still great, if not better. I’d take a high-end CRT over a modern LCD any day.
