    I bought Sonic Adventure 2 Battle cause I watched Sonic 3 this weekend and it was fucking awesome.

    This is the first 3D Sonic game I’ve really played, and I’m having a fun time so far. I’m actually really liking the Chao Garden too.

    Found my old GBA that I thought I’d gotten rid of because the battery was borked. Turns out the battery still works, it’s the charging light that’s borked. My 6yo saw me rocking Tetris and I let him take a crack at it. He played for two hours straight.

      Yeah, Tetris still got it. The DX version was my most played game on the Steam Deck for a few months, despite hundreds of other games waiting the backlog. Kid made a great choice.

        We were playing on the GBA SP, but the cart was the GameBoy original that came with my (definitely dead but I still have it) grey brick GameBoy.

        I sold all my GB/A carts except that and FFTA.

    Mainly Celeste, Darksiders Genesis co-op, and Eiyuden Chronicle Rising. Celeste and Eiyuden are great, Darksiders is fine, it feels a bit generic. I was way too scared of Celeste, it‘s not as hard as I feared it would be without assist mode.

    I’ve mostly thought about playing Balatro, but haven’t gotten around to it as I’ve only watched numbers go big in Untitled Space Idle (idler/clicker/absolute-timewaster).

    It’s been a slow gaming week for me. :D

    edit: maybe I should actually elaborate a bit on the idle-game.

    Essentially: you have space ship, space ship must fight other space ships, which get tougher and tougher the further you go. As you go, you research, build, etc. more things to your ship to make it sturdier, deadlier, and faster, then reset and do it again, but BETTER. Rince and repeat, the usual idle-game loop.

    There’s so many different ways to make the ship better - but you’re gonna need them all anyway, having multiple systems you can/need to level up, but usually can’t do so in one go is just a time sink.

    It’s a simple game but if you identify as “scandisk/defrag watcher”, it’s for you.

    Still trudging around Daggerfall. I did touch the story briefly but since my character is mostly non-combat oriented I don’t even have access to the quests needed to progress anywhere (not that I mind).

    I also started playing original Sims again. I expected to have a lot more problems getting used to the lack of quality of life changes and features present in the later titles but it’s not too bad so far. I guess I really did take the “just immerse yourself in the world” approach to heart recently.
    The only slightly annoying things is the fact I couldn’t get the widescreen patch to work but whatever, it’s not the first game I’ll play in 4:3 aspect ratio.
