What are you playing this weekend? 2023-07-08

Hello Everyone,

This week passed way too quickly. It seems like I didn't do much. There aren't any significant updates form my side.

Still playing The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, thought I would be able to finish it but I couldn't. So, no changes here.

In non-nintendo gaming, still playing the same games, without much change:

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge
Monster Hunter: World
Marvel’s Avengers

For Marvel's Avengers, the game started strong, but went downhill quickly due to all the Live Service elements. It could've been a fun game if they had stuck with single player. I am near the end of main campaign, and will delete it as soon as I complete it. Probably just need 2-3 hours more.

That's all from my side, what about you guys? What are you playing? And how are you enjoying it?

Tears of the Kingdom FTW! Just... So beautiful
Still working through ToTK tbh ngl. That game just has SO MUCH CONTENT.
Same with TotK. Trying to finish all side quests and getting all armor before the final boss
You’re not alone on TotK. I’m still working on it too. Been taking my time to enjoy it, and the number of hours of gaming time isn’t what it once was.

Very much same. Though not exactly that I could not, more like I do not exactly want to. I am pretty advanced on the plot, so now i am exploring the depths, finding side quests, seeing caves, finding wells. This game is endless.

And maybe I should start helping the korok find their friend, bless them.
Hey, im gonna be playing some Mario kart this evening we should organize some lemmy races
Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1+2

Zelda TOTK
I've been mainly playing Zelda and ignoring main quests as much as I can. But this weekend I'll play the new splatfest in splatoon
I keep playing TotK. I've done a few more shrines, caves and got the Master Sword.

Also, for some reason I got Sonic Origin Plus and finished the first Sonic game. I grew up with Nintendo and only rarely played Sonic at friends' house. It's not the first time I play it, but definitely the first time I finish it. I feel like this game had so much potential, but the level design is pretty bad, and ends up being the poor man's Mario. It's still fun at times, but I hope Sonic 2, Knuckles and CD get better.
I've been trying out the Pikmin 4 demo. I'm not totally sold on it just yet.
Mario Kart Wii. The GameCube/ Wii era was the best imo.
Playing Advance Wars. I finished the first campaign couple days ago and now I'm trying to get the 100%
I want to try out the Pikmin 4 demo and finally launch Mario Rabbids Kingdom Battle. I bought it ages ago, but haven't even tried it yet. I have a disgusting backlog. But this weekend, I want to give my Switch some love.
I’m just on the cusp of beating Metroid Prime. Amazing game if you haven’t played it.
Still rocking Tears of the Kingdom, awesome game
I am almost done with Pokemon Ultra Sun and will be starting Signalis this weekend; I don’t usually play a lot of horror games anymore but this one reminds of me the older Resident Evil and Silent Hill games.
Finishing up Pikmin 2 endgame before 4 comes out in a couple weeks
Also slowly wrapping up TotK, trying to savor it as I wrap up final shrines and things. Besides that I've started another run of Minish Cap in the virtual GBA which is a blast. Messing around with Infinite Fusion has also been really fun
@slimerancher primero zelda tears of the kingdom y después mario maker 2
Just got a Switch for my gf and me soooo… Animal Crossing lol.

Need to start BOTW too.
Probably Tetris 99 (my go to "I just want to zone out and play" game), and I might pick TotK back up (I'm really early in the game). I bought The House in Fata Morgana last month and haven't started it yet, so I've got that for an option too.
Ori and the will of the wisps
I just finished up with TOTK today. I still have a bunch of minor side quests, but after 175 hours and squeezing as much as I could out of it I think I'm good for now. I decided to go for all the shrines and all the bigger quests.

I have no idea what to do now though. I've got a number of games to play but TOTK felt like a black hole. It absorbed my attention and I feel like anything I play next will feel mediocre in comparison lol.

I'm thinking I might play splatoon 3 finally. Or jump over and try some xbox gamepass games for a bit. I also want to try persona as I haven't played those before. But I am not sure if I'm ready for another 100+ hour experience yet haha

At some point I need to finish monster hunter world iceborne dlc and I would like to play rise. But I have to get in the mood to play those kinds of games I suppose. I find if I get stressed IRL about various life stuff I gotta switch to more casual games for a while.

I've been enjoying power wash simulator when I want to just turn my brain off
Just bought the Escapist 2 because my niece wanted to play it with me online. In all honesty I am not that interested in it but it was 5€ on discount, so it's not a huge loss 😅
I honestly don't know.

Finished the pack of VNs I was playing previously and now I'm trying to decide which game from my gigantic backlog is next.
Okay let's try again now I'm actually commenting on the relevant week post ...

Planning to try and complete paper Mario 64 on nso ( currently on chapter 5 ) . Recently got my GameCube repaired and modded so will most likely move onto the thousand year door next.

Also just bought gunfire reborn on steam and have been enjoying that .
Splatoon 3
Pikmin 2 and Zelda.
Pikmin 2 will be my go-to most if this weekend if i get the chance to game, trying to finish it before pikmin 4 drops. It's also a community day weekend for Pokemon Go so will head to a park with some friends for a while to catch some squirtles.
started playing this town building sim called dago noka! it's mindless enouugh to just unwind with.
Finally finishing up Code:Realize! I also bought Collar x Malice and am excited to start that .
Probably some BotW and maybe trying the Pikmin demo.
Dying Light 2. it was a little rough on launch but recent patchs have improved it a lot
Tears of the Kingdom. I could finish it right now but I don't want the game to be over. So I am just going around completing everything I can think of
Mario kart 8 on Pretendo
My friend played Avengers and then later played Guardians of the Galaxy. He really enjoyed Guardians more and said it was what he wanted out of Avengers. So if you're looking to scratch that itch, it might be worth checking out.
I'm a week into Tears of the Kingdom and slowly unearthing my dormant skills from BotW. I don't remember basic enemies being as strong as they are, or else I missed something about gaining stronger armor/defense. Plugging away and will get better over time, though.
More Dragon Quest XI for me. I’ve got what I think is my full team together.

Also, raiding in Pokémon Violet. If you have the game, don’t forget there’s a 7-star Delphox raid going on this weekend!
