Okay padded out this remix of King Bowser's Castle 2 from Yoshi's Woolly World to be 3 minutes long specially for the new Bluesky upload limit please enjoy! It's pretty good!!

(couldn't think of a good ending though lol)

My Smartwatch said I'm overweight and whilst I DO feel like this is a conspiracy from Big Smartwatch I have started my day with two bananas and two glasses of water.

I miss snacks already.

Bought a £5 album off the Square Enix UK store. Didn't even check the track listing, and only noticed the word Relax in it.

Thought it might be a remix album, turns out just to be a compilation so I was like aw...

Until it went from Angel's Fear to Corridors of Time and damn that's a strong combo

Calling up EpicCoin in 2035 to verify my account and the AI bot asks me to confirm the last three Fortnite dances I did, wishing I'd moved to SteamBank

That really let that sink in

Also can they not afford the hall of fame any more??

Nothing will beat the peak of capturing nearly 200 Pokémon before I even got the legendary bike that was too much fun.

Christerious @christerious.bsky.social · 2d

So Pokémon Scarlet/Violet starts out really cool when you explore, then the lack of structure, linearity or Main Story-ness to the pick 3 quests thing makes for a really underwhelming mid game. The final challenges were fun though.

I feel blessed to be dodging it OR I am somehow simply unaware. They've yet to curse my YouTube recommendations

Okay my conclusion after playing like 15 demos is Monkey Ball cleared all of them. Bayonetta Origins was cool tho and I'd consider Miitopia and Warioware.

Finished up with Mario Strikers (eh), Another Code (tempted by the OGs more) and Emio (cool but not much gameplay)

Christerious @christerious.bsky.social · 5d

Playing a bunch of Switch exclusive demos to see what I'd want to dip back into on Switch 2

Yoshi and Pokken are ehs from me
Monkey Ball is peak (though I wonder if it'll come to Steam)

Christerious @christerious.bsky.social · 4d

Bayonetta Origins kinda cool as heck?? Finally a pleasant surprise among these demos

Christerious @christerious.bsky.social · 4d

Oh and neither are exclusives.

I did however play the PMD Remake demo and... yeah it's a remake of the first game. I think I'd rather jump back into the Explorers games instead tho.

Christerious @christerious.bsky.social · 4d

Demos aren't over yet.

Super Robot Wars Y is for the mech anime / tactics sickos clearly but I enjoyed the Code Geass jumpscare

Daemon x Machina is surprisingly boring for a mech game. It made me wishlist Armored Core 6 tho so thanks

Age of Calamity demo makes me kinda excited for Imprisonment... if it didn't cost £55 lol. Hyrule Warriors on Wii U was good fun, so playing a refined version without an awful frame rate...

Christerious @christerious.bsky.social · 5d

Not an exclusive but Crosswords is great but I've got my fill with MKWorld. I'm glad they managed to reach the peak of All Stars Racing Transformed tho.

MvDK I snooze because it's a fairly slow paced puzzler

Christerious @christerious.bsky.social · 5d

Warioware GIT and Miitopia are kinda tempting.

The former is pretty fun and I haven't Wario Wared since Gold. I'd get Move It if it was unique.

The latter, I'm not a massive RPG player, but the potential of using silly Mii faces makes it a pretty funny game

Christerious @christerious.bsky.social · 5d

Also Big Brain Academy is just a remaster of the Wii game with some online practically (better than the Brain Training game from the sounds of it, and cheaper) but I think it's a cute edumacational game so bought it for my nephew.

OH they made Wuppo! That game was amusing and ambitious but I kinda got bored of the pacing. This game is just a cute 2-3 hour sandbox and I like those.

Christerious @christerious.bsky.social · 5d

Tiny Terry's Turbo Trip is a cute lil hybrid of like idk GTA and A Short Hike or something anyway idc I got to space
