    These past few weeks I got Switch and 3DS emulation running pretty well, so I’ve been bouncing between various exclusive games on both platforms lately. I just found out this morning that Puzzle Quest got a new release on Steam last September, though, so I’ll probably be playing that for a while as it always sucks me in when I start a playthrough. Planning to get Scott Pilgrim EX soon and play that as well.

    After the winter sale and some Christmas gift cards I was kinda paralyzed by choice and just stopped playing.

    I’ve been following “Video Game Club” on Mastodon and the March game is Super Mario Galaxy. So getting emulator and controller working for that and getting it going. The game itself seems decent, but has not become a total timesink yet.

      Switch or Wii version? The Wii one runs a bit better, but is more of a pain to set up controls. The Switch one is perfectly playable and gyro even works.

        I used the Wii version. There was a (mostly) helpful video that had links to pre-configured controller mappings so I can do all the motion control stuff with regular controls. The star aiming isn’t quite as intuitive, but I’ve not had an issue playing casually.

    Spelunky 2 and Final Fantasy 7 with mods. Took a bit to get running, but FF7 is great with widescreen and upscaled everything

    Jumping between Ridge Racer 2 (PSP one) and The Legend of Linkle: Breath of the Wild (BotW, just modded).

    With RR2 I pretty much stick to random tours at this point as I really don’t want to deal with playing the final duels of the pro tour (I cleared one, tried another and decided it’s just not fun). I’ve been on a bit of a binge of RR related media (videos, listening to the soundtracks) so I come back to this game regularly. I also decided to try out Ridge Racer Type 4 but I’m doing it on my PC due to laziness. Didn’t play enough to have an opinion on that one yet.

    With BotW I came back after a year or so long break and decided to start from scratch with refreshed attitude instead of continuing my previous save. I’m having a bit more fun and less pressure to progress this time so there’s a chance I’ll be able to finish it (I got about half-way on my first attempt). We’ll see how it goes.
    At the very least, I’d love a proper Zelda game with Linkle as a protagonist. Heck, I’d settle for a decent knockoff.

    New Star GP. I gave it to my son but ended up playing it way more than him as it’s a quite complex game for an arcade racer.

    Still, I’m trying to find other games to divert him from Fortnite and Roblox 😅
