It would be a lie to say that Chill Season 2022 “pulled me back” to Splatoon 3, because the truth of the matter is that I never left. Ok, that sounds less scary in my head. What I want to say is, it’s still a great game and the update has done its job excellently giving me more proof that despite playing for hours, I still play this game badly.
Looks like I’m drawing near the end fear of Metroid also. Despite my best efforts to stretch it out for as long as possible, those damn suit upgrades are really ramping up now and my experience just keeps getting better. I haven’t done any Google to confirm my progress, mind you. Who knows? I could still have hours to play…

I’m still playing Pokémon Violet – I’m almost done with the Pokédex at this point thanks to some friends with Scarlet. So I just went into online Raids and tried to evolve all the rest of my Pokémon.
Stick with Pokémon, I’ll pick up Capture new Pokémon this weekend. I never bought it when it first came out and only played a little with friends, but I’d love to take a look at it in its entirety – Pokémon and the ecosystem and how they interact with each other are my favorite things about the series. story, after all. And in the end, I got Mythical Ocean at cheap prices on eShop; I’ve been wanting to try this for a long time, so this weekend looks like a good opportunity!

In case someone keeps updating my gaming adventures — I’m done dishonest. A bit disappointed with how quickly things ended, but now I’m starting Shameless Bo Doan 2!
I’m also enjoying Pokémon Scarlet, it feels like exploring a world and going places I shouldn’t be. It’s fun! I can’t help but like it even though it’s a huge pile of sundries!!

Did you know there is a demo for The North Star’s Boxing Fist on Japanese eShop? You can bet I’ll spit out “You’re dead.” throughout this weekend and perhaps until the right player arrives next March. Two visits to reality got me hooked again with Shin’en’s masterpieces: FAST RMX and tourists (must beat high-scoring video games). Great stuff on the eShop I’ll also learn about: sword hero, Astronomy, rail and always brilliant Elevator Action -Returns- S-Tribute.
Game of the week is Mission Ahead 1: Redo. There will never be a consensus on what this remake does and does not do. It’s a niche franchise that means different things to different people even today. The allure of once again giant footing with metal legs up Huffman Island proved too much of a thrill to ignore.

It was that time of year when I crammed to sample a whole bunch of games before submitting my GOTY picks, but while I dipped my toes in a variety of things (including moon, White Neon, Back to Monkey Islandand Prodeus) and will do my best to spend more time with them, Fraudulent Legacy 2 keeps pulling me back for ‘just one more’ time and again.
I find myself in a similar position to the first one Fraudulent legacy — it completely took up my gaming time until I beat it. Therefore, despite all the other stuff I need to play, I’ll do my best to get the latest Cellar Door out of my system. Great game.
As always, thanks for reading! Be sure to leave us a comment below with your weekend gaming plans!
