Hopefully I’ll be able to put in a little time in Fire Emblem Engage this weekend. I’ve been following character reveal how I feel for 18 years now, so I’m excited to finally see what all these guys are up to. Fortunately, I also have a fair amount of traveling to do over the next few days, so that should give me some quality game time.

If I could make some time for anything else, I’d probably spend the Super Metroid ending in the NSO SNES library. Yes, I said I would do this last week, but it turns out I was a lot further from the end than I thought. It’s still an amazing game, though it’s a shame about wall jumping which is what I stand for being one of the most frustrating mechanics in video game history…

I have to be honest, guys, I think I’m about to go back to my Stardew Valley stage. I ran the game to take screenshots the other day, and oops, I spent a couple of days in the game wandering around Skull Cavern… maybe I can convince my partner to do a co-op farm with me, even though I’ve turned into an inventory management monster every time?

I recently got a strange craving for playing Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Ultimate again; It’s been a long time since I last turned it on and part of me felt like I was done with the game. Anyway, I basically deleted the entire save file and started from scratch, and doing so honestly rekindled my love for this game. Like, I really love him! Playing through the classic mode with each character and unlocking new ones is a real treat; I even stumbled across some stages that I completely forgot were there – New Dunk City? what! Very good, man.

Elsewhere, I bought Persona 4 Golden when it launched on Thursday and have been enjoying it so far. I originally played on the Vita nearly ten years ago, but it still holds up remarkably well today. I’ve never played Persona 3 Portable before, but since it’s primarily a visual novel outside of battles and such, I’m going to give it a try on Game Pass before committing to a purchase on Switch. Best of luck everyone!

I’m still playing Disco Elysium at the moment – what a great game. I enjoy being a total disaster in a video game (just like in real life), but it’s incredibly thoughtful and provocative as well. I bought a boom box! I passed out reading my clipboard. It’s temporary for all of those two things alone.

But I made a mistake. I picked two new games this week. Persona 3 Portable marks the first time I’ve played the FeMC track, as fans have lovingly called it. I’ve heard amazing things about this route, and Persona 3 is my favorite character from the recent trilogy (for story reasons). Plus, A Space for the Unbound got some great reviews and I’ve been excited about it for a while, so I got it. Buying things I’m passionate about and supporting my indie developers – two of my favorite things. Stay warm guys!
