I hate to think how much grinding this would have had without the MissingNo glitch lol

Looking at this it's fairly evident when I got my Switch 2.

And the covetted LaserGlow Game of the Year 2025 award goes to... Hollow Knight: Silksong! I'd say Kirby and DK would have been in the running for the honour too but upon reflection, I'd say this game delivered the best overall package as well as me enjoying playing it the most overall.

And the last game I snuck in towards the end of the year was Curse Crackers. Awesome little Game Boy Colour tribute 2D platformer with a banger soundtrack to boot, also my god the lore in this game goes insane for a 2D platformer, big fan overall.

NOW THIS IS A GAME! The original Air Ride holds a special place in my heart and a sequel was something I always wanted but never expected and boy did this game deliver, it's not perfect but what is here is sublime! What a great lineup to kickstart the Switch 2.

Legends ZA is a weird game, I appreciate many things about it including more focus on battling and the real time combat being a nice shakeup but also don't fully appreciate the devs homogenizing it so it feels extremely main series adjacent rather than being parallel but doing its own thing.

First up is Donkey Kong Bananza! I wasn't hugely optimistic on this game but it simultaneously surprised and impressed me, particularly with its finale. You can easily see the Mario Odyssey DNA in here but for a while it was my favourite Switch 2 game. The DLC was certainly a choice though.

Thank goodness that's over.

Completely escaped me to update this, but I'm a proud completer of Silksong! Throughout my time with this game I was on constant surveillance in order to ascertain why it took as long as it did to come out, safe to say I saw a few reasons. Still, I'd say it stands as one of 2025's finest.

The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. The Redeads and their horrific shriek had me completely terrified, even the prospect of facing them on replays would spike my anxiety, thank goodness for TV muting lol

I love that the last couple of Kirby games have been pushing a modern interpretation of Dedede's 64 design only for Air Riders/Sakurai to say "nah".

It's about time. I've completed A Hat in Time. Think I've had my eye on this game since like 2013 where I watched a Youtuber play a beta version of the game. Very charming and fun 3D platformer, there were times I had a smile stuck on my face subconsciously while playing it. A lovely gem of a game.

MOVE IT GRANDMA! MARIO KART WORLD COMING THROUGH! Big fan of some of the innovations this game has, such as the artstyle, items and control adjustments. However I just really don't jive with the hard commitment this game made with free roam and the intermission courses. Not exactly what I wanted.

The Thousand Year Door, far from a bore! This getting announced is perhaps the most flabbergasted I've ever been so I absolutely had to pick it up, especially because I've never beaten this game before, one of the few games from my childhood that still had that "honour". Glad to report it holds up.

Few days late, but here we have the game arguing with MHW, Tales of Graces f Remastered! Not my favourite Tales of game but it has a special place in my heart for being there for me 10 years ago during my lowest mental state, I enjoy the characters and quite like some of the story drama.

Why does Donkey Kong Bananza have an in-game purchases warning, is Donkey Kong gonna charge me £5 to replenish my stamina?

Next up we have Monster Hunter Wilds, pretty good overall, as a hammer main I love how they iterated on it following Rise, they just need to make it not the weakest weapon in the game. Will say though. I kind of preferred playing a MH game like 2 years late than at launch.
