2025 is a year of change. I’m returning to YouTube in a limited capacity, which got derailed due to personal issues. Will continue to grow at my day job, which has been such a strong experience overall. One of the main goals is to improve my writing further. I want to be the best version of myself.
I arrived safe and sound in Osaka. Just a little bit of train action and then we can finally relax! #Japan2026

Heading to Japan at the end of this week. It has been a while since I had a proper holiday, so being far away from home will be nice. At least for a bit. I have some new places to visit planned!

In about 45 minutes, I am playing around on two islands in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Let’s make my secondary island prettier! www.twitch.tv/nintendaan

This week’s travel game is Big Hops. A beautiful 3D indie platformer that came out yesterday. Use your tongue to pick up items, swing across gaps or move objects. There are momentum moves like a roll and jump combo that feels real good. Climbing and collecting too! #NintendoSwitch2

So we’ve been completed snowed in. A rare thing on this side of Europe. I might as well enjoy it when I can as it won’t last. The good thing is that I’m staying warm and safe at home. No traveling by train this week!

This year’s first game is Cast n Chill. A fishing title where you travel to 13 different locations and catch creatures in approachable fashion. As you play, you unlock tools and experiment. There is an idle mode, if you need a break. Cast n Chill offers beautiful landscapes too! #NintendoSwitch2

Happy final day of year! I was a bit less on the internet during the second half of 2025, mostly due to being over the place. Work was busy, emotionally I was a bit exhausted and mostly trying to enjoy board and video games. I will be around more once the new year hits! The last week did wonders! 🥳

PEGI has Switch 2 ratings for every Switch 1 game that got a free Switch 2 upgrade. Splatoon 3 got one earlier this year. They forgot to set a date beyond the year so it defaulted to the last day of the year. This is normal. Please go about your business.

And just like that, I am off from work for the next 2.5 weeks. The biggest order of business is that I will finally play Expedition 33. Otherwise, a bit more chilling and unwinding. Maybe I will talk more about games since there is room to think. The last two months have been a rollercoaster!

This week’s travel game is LOK Digital. It is an excellent puzzle game in which you have to string words together to solve a grid. Every word removes tiles in a different way, forcing you to think about the right solution. Super relaxing with nice music to boot! #NintendoSwitch2

Funny update on this: I am now flying a few days earlier. The airline kept changing the potential flight I could take. But ye, all ends well. Now I am nearly three weeks in Japan. Welp!
I will be back in Japan from January 28 until February 13. Leeeeesgooo! 🥳

Thank you all so much for tuning in! I had a lot of fun playing Kirby Air Riders with @nintendaan.com and friends! Once again, the game is pure chaos and fun! Thanks to @clarksmadness.com for the gifted sub!

This week’s travel game is the Mega Dimension DLC for Pokemon Legends: Z-A. Just played through the opening and I’m quite intrigued. Enjoyed the base game well enough, so interested where it will go from here. The tutorial fight sets it up nicely! #NintendoSwitch2
