Been ripping my CD collection to my Mac the last month or so, and been really enjoying listening through it. Here are four of my personal favorite albums recently.

I’ve uploaded a new, easy level on Mario Maker 2. Feel free to check it out and let me know what you think! I haven’t done much of the level creation because it is so awkward feeling compared to Wii U

Super hyped after having the NS2 officially revealed! Even though it matches all the leaks, it’s nice to have confirmation and a date to expect more major news for the system. Really hoping the mouse functionality helps with bringing Wii, DS, and 3DS games to the console!

In keeping with my unintentional tradition for the last couple years of playing a Final Fantasy VII game first thing in the new year, the first game I play in 2025 will be Final Fantasy VII Rebirth! Very excited to dive into this one! What are you playing first in the new year?

I have decided that Sea of Stars is just not for me. Disappointing, since I was really looking forward to it, but after about 20 hours, I just can’t keep playing it. I thought it might have just been the timing that was bad for me when I first started it, but I’m permanently shelving it this time.

Finished Animal Well yesterday! I had so much fun with this one, and I’m glad I listened to the advice to go in to it blind. Such great atmosphere and gameplay

My Nintendo Year in Review! Switch was definitely my primary system this year. Over half those hours are Balatro, btw 😂

Played it for the first time last year! Great game. This was the more affordable way for me to play it. I’d still like to eventually get the SNES cart, though.

Also, I was getting ready to play Ocarina of Time 3D. While waiting for my 3DS to charge up I started reading the book, only to be greeted by the first game entry. A fun little coincidence.

Finished Astro Bot 100%! What a blast of a game. Hope this game helps kick off a new golden era for 3D platformers.

I’d argue that the 6th generation was also crazy good

The NES has become a very important console to me over the last ten years. I’ve put my collection expansion on hold currently due to lack of space, but I’m looking forward to playing and collecting more for the system. Any favorites you see from my collection?
