This week went past so quickly! I had tons of work stuff to catch up to, so pretty much only got to play over the weekend, and hopefully will get to play on the weekend again.

Played some Snipe Elite 4, I think I am about 75% done with the main campaign, basing off the trophies.

Also played some Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 1. Nothing much to say about it.

Tried Air Conflicts: Pacific Carriers but couldn’t get into it, so dropped it after about an hour.

Started Powerwash Simulator and played a little bit. Not sure currently if I will keep playing it or not.

What about all of you? What have you been playing? And what recent or “coming up soon” game you’re really excited about?

    I’ve been playing The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons on my Analogue Pocket, in short bursts at a time. I’m on the third dungeon so far. It’s not as cool as Link’s Awakening I think, but it’s fun.

    Still haven’t finished Mario Wonder on Switch and haven’t even played Mario RPG for weeks. I need to get back to those, but recently all I’ve been able to play is those short sessions with the Pocket. Hopefully this weekend, though I’ve come down with some virus, so I don’t know how much gaming I’ll be able to do 🤒

      Wow, someone with actual Analogue device! I have always seen them completely sold out. Not that I would’ve bought any, since I don’t really have any cartridge for any of the older system and I am not going to start collecting them now, but still…

      How are you liking it? It looks really neat!

      Depending on the virus, it could be lots of gaming because you can’t do anything else, or no gaming, because you can’t do gaming either. Hopefully it’s the former one. May you get well soon!

        Thank you! I’m at the point where I can’t do much because I’m not feeling great, but will hopefully feel better during the weekend 🤞

        Yeah, I love my Game Boys, but the Analogue Pocket is amazing. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone wanting to play their old cartridges. The save states and the display filters are great additions. You can also install cores and emulate several other consoles like the SNES and Mega Drive. My only complaint is after I got mine (plain black version) they released a few limited versions like glow in the dark and transparent, which I’d much rather have, but they’re too pricey to buy again 😅

        I kind of regret not buying the Super NT, I know my SNES won’t live forever 😬 I’m still on the fence about getting the 64 one, Analogue 3D. I think what they’re doing is pretty awesome, hope they’d get to the point where they can sell the consoles at more accessible prices.

          Oh yeah, they do look great.

          And I agree, Analogue is doing great work for game preservation. If I had a collection of old cartridges, I would’ve definitely tried to get my hands on them.

          And don’t be on fence, get the 3D! Their devices are always sold out, so get one when it’s easily available, or you’ll regret it like you do for Super NT!
