Been continuing Letter Quest which I'm slowly becoming addicted to for being such a chill time lol. May also start a cute looking pixel art homage to Donkey Kong Country I recently discovered called Windswept.

Turned out to be a good call lol. Loving Letter Quest so far.
The simple but effective "word battle RPG" gameplay loop is something I'm finding low-key addictive and... I guess kinda soothing in a way?
Perfect "turn the brain noise down & just unwind for a bit" kind of game.

#RandomGameSaturday? Cool! Sure, why not.
I'll go with Skies of Arcadia Legends for GameCube.
Finally found this complete copy at a retro show last year & happy to have it. I hear nothing but good things about it, so I may bump it up the list of next year's priority games to try, ya never know lol.

Anyone remember the Bookworm games? They were word puzzle games I have some nostalgia for. Apparently there was even a Bookworm RPG where you fought enemies with words you spelled.
Wish I could've tried it, but I've found Letter Quest, a spiritual successor of sorts, on Steam, so I might try that!

For me personally, it's a neck-&-neck, basically unbreakable tie between Grant Kirkhope & Yoko Shimomura. Can't choose just one.
They're both geniuses & their compositions have followed me the vast majority of my gaming life.

Rolled credits on Pokémon Legends Z-A.
Pretty fun time overall. Narrative is serviceable, but that new combat system definitely does the heavy lifting. Turning Pokémon battles into fast-paced, real-time ordeals was a good call.
Here's hoping Gen 10 builds on this game's strong points.

My wife wanted to watch some evening TV, so tonight was my first time spending a good while using the Switch 2 as a handheld, and I gotta say, *way* better than OG Switch.
For me personally anyway. A way more comfortable fit for my gigantic meat claws lol.

It was actually a bit of a rush to find stuff in the Pokémon Legends Z-A game box besides just, y'know, the game! And I mean, it's at least a *little* nifty! Comes with a handy little type matchup chart 👍
Took me back to the good ol' days of game manuals for a moment there.

I'll go with Samus Aran from Metroid
and
Shadowheart from Baldur's Gate III
I don't usually tag that much, so anyone feel free to join in & share your opinions too if you'd like!

Rolled credits on Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac.
A lovingly crafted remake right here. You get level design tweaks, voice acting, different bosses, time trials AND a postgame all for $30. Great value.
Had a delightful time overall, even if I found the postgame levels to be more tedious than rewarding.

Idk who came along & decided jump landing indicators should be added to 3D platformers, but whoever you are, please know you have my thanks lol.
I'm not saying platformers without them are a dealbreaker, but when they're included, they wind up being pretty dang helpful.

Hard to put into exact words how being in my Nerd Cave with the windows open on a crisp evening makes me feel, but what I *can* tell you is I've reached peak zen-like vibes atm.

Sometimes fans really do what Nintendon't!
Super Mario Bros Remastered, a fantastic fangame, just dropped last Saturday on Mario's 40th.
Graphics tweaks, 4 games included, achievements, challenge modes, resource packs, a full level editor -- it's a *beautiful* love letter to SMB & I love it so far.
