I was hoping to check out the nifty What They Don’t Sea, but it doesn’t seem to be on the EU eShops yet and I’m out of US credit. Luckily, I have a backlog of blush to make for the constipated elephant, so I’ll be good to go until it shows up in my local eShop.
This weekend will be some Llamasoft, some Pikmin 4 and some GBA Mario Tennis. Alternatively, I’ve recently moved a whole bunch of my retro collection out of a cardboard box and into a chest of drawers, so it’s not impossible to spend an entire weekend playing ISS64. We wish you all well.

I have some Metroidvania marathon at the moment, and would you believe it, after multiple attempts to get into the game, something finally clicked with Hollow Knight. I don’t know why it didn’t quite work out for me at first, but I’m really enjoying this latest attempt. I’m hoping to finish it before Silksong comes… Yeah, I probably will.
Elsewhere I started again Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition on PS5. It’s truly one of the best action games of all time and a real showcase for Sony’s latest console.

This weekend I plan to play TowerFall with a few of my friends. It has become a fan favorite whenever I have people over and the fact that you can play up to 6 people together on one switch is amazing!
I’m also hoping to throw in a few rounds of Balatra, but we’ll see if I get the time for that because as we all know, once you start, it’s hard to stop. !

Guys, I accidentally got back into Stardew Valley heavy. True, the 1.6 lure brought me back, but while we wait for it to come to the Switch, I’m actually trying to catch up on the 1.5 content — I need those boat batteries!
On the complete opposite end of the spectrum, I just beat my first Soulsborne in the Bloodborne, and now I’ve moved on to Dark Souls. Huh boy, that’s a change in pace and mechanics. I’m already sick of poison and I’m not even in poison territory yet!

Few more runs Contra: Operation Galuga are ok because i want those secret characters! Further progress in Unicorn Overlorda war for continental hegemony is expected and I added Earth Defense Forces 3 A Japanese import to my bug hunting / kaiju baslting collection. NSO is also the perfect excuse to replay GBA F-Zero: Maximum Speed. I discord crew also has another night session HELLDIVERS and EDF: Iron rain session up in the cards. This usually ends up with us all accidentally fragging each other rather than enemies of a managed democracy.
It’s the game of the week Xeno crisis… on Super Nintendo!? How did the Bitmap Bureau pull this off? I’m dusting off and reassembling my old trusty PAL Super Nintendo for bug hunting without blast processing!

I’ll be honest, I’m still stuck Dragon’s Dogma 2and Diablo 4, which was just added to Game Pass (I’ve never played Diablo before, despite being a loot glutton). In between I’m also playing Balatro — I can’t get past the 300,000,000 blind, so if anyone has any tips I’d love to hear them — and having just polished Paranormasight (what a game!!!) I’m also in the market for more murder-mysteries- plots-plots.
Oh, I just reviewed a game I really liked, but you’ll have to wait until next week to find out what it is!
That’s what we have planned for the weekend, what about you? Take the following poll with the game you’ll be running over the next few days, then slide into the comments to tell us what other titles are on the cards.
