Screenshot dump from my time with Pokemon Legends Z-A so far! Been having an absolute blast with the game.
After 65 hours I finally rolled credits on Legends Z-A. Just finished all the research requests and got my shiny charm, so now the shiny hunt begins!

Decided to dive back into Monster Hunter Rise, since I never finished the last few title updates from Sunbreak and oof. I forgot how much time I put into this game. 😂
Goal is to finish the last of the title update content before Legends Z-A comes out next week!

The N64 was my first console. Had that N64 Christmas experience as a kid, playing Kirby 64 and Pokemon Stadium with my sibling. Great times.

Played the demo for Persona 3 Reload on Switch 2, very impressed with how the game looks visually. If ATLUS can iron out the frame pacing issues, it may be THE handheld Persona 3 experience.

Today is the 22nd anniversary of Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire, first released in Japan for the Nintendo Game Boy Advance on August 1, 2003!
It expands upon Pokémon Pinball and features Pokémon in the Hoenn Pokédex.

Probably the most hype part of the Direct for me was Once Upon a Katamari.
I’m so stoked one of my favorite series is getting a new console entry!

James Carter Cathcart, the voice of Gary Oak, James, Meowth, Professor Oak, and many more, has passed away.
He is not just a great voice actor; he is also an amazing and kind person who will be remembered for generations to come.
May he rest in peace.

The demo for Wild Hearts S dropped for Switch 2 today, so of course I had to play it.
Based on the demo so far, it seems like a really competent port! Performance is maybe on par with PS5, with a few bugs here and there, but overall very enjoyable, definitely better than my Steam Deck lol.

Local game shop came in clutch today! Excited to finally have a copy of Daemon X Machina, pumped to have Dragon Quest 11S return to the collection, and Sonic Superstars is a great addition.

Traded my Xbox and my Oled Switch and only had to pay $20 out of pocket for a Switch 2 Mario Kart bundle! Managed to get the last one at my local GameStop too.
Been putting a ton of time into Mario Kart and Pokemon Scarlet and I am loving it so far!

Such an overlooked game. If you still have a 3DS lying around, give it a shot!
It has been 11 years since Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth released on the 3DS. This dungeon crawler blended Etrian Odyssey gameplay with Persona characters and flavor in a really unique way.

Nintendo released the Switch 2 on June 5 specifically to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the release of EarthBound, which you can now play through Nintendo Switch Online on your new hardware. And you can't prove otherwise. Why would you even want to?
Ranking the top 101 Nintendo games: No. 12, EarthBound
EarthBound manages to be an incredible send up of its genre and video games in general, while also being a fantastic, memorable video game in its own right.
