I can’t wait to boot this up!

Phones have been waterproof long before removable batteries were removed.

I only played Pikmin 3 (and 2, but briefly, never finished it), and tbh I never perceived it as stressful. In fact I would say I loved it because I found it quite zen.

I just hope it doesn’t come out before holiday 2024. I’m too broke Nintendo, you already took all my money this year, let me recover for a bit

I wouldn’t have high hopes for anything published by Microids, but this looks alright. The music is nice.

That doesn’t seem like a severe enough penalty imo

Really fun game. Personally, I like the newer ones as well (especially Origami King) but I take them for what they are: a different series by the same name. Although I’m probably a bit of a heretic since Super Paper Mario is my favorite.

Yeah unfortunately I really didn’t have the time necessary to immerse myself in Zelda. Playing in small bursts was starting to feel annoying, so I just quit for a bit. Now that I have a little more time I’m picking it up again. I’m not complaining too much tho, the longer it lasts the better - although I may have to make a tough decision if I don’t finish it before Pikmin comes out.

What have you been playing after pausing TotK?

I have been playing some Disgaea 1 on PC. It’s a series I’ve always been curious about and tbh it required me a lot less attention than Zelda. So it was a good distraction.

If Microsoft started releasing DLC for Minesweeper they’d make more money than the Acti-Bliz acquisition will ever make them.

Rayman Legends I assume? Amazing game, maybe the best 2D platformer I’ve ever played.

I’ve paused ToTK for a week or so (35 hours in, only 1 regional questo done lmao) but I may resume this weekend. I need to catch up or I’ll never finish that game at this rate, wish I had more time…

Other than that, eventually I want to give MH: Rise another try. Bought it on switch when it came out, played it for a week then dropped.

Lots of great suggestions, but I’d like to add Captain Toad Treasure Tracker to the list. The puzzles are fun and they encourage you to think outside the box. Not too difficult and you don’t really need to understand the language.

Yeah, looks real nice. Now I’ll just have to convince someone to play it with me…
