Nintendo Switch

Nice, glad you're liking it. It took a while, but I ended up courting Leah and now we're married with a kid. I got $20 in eShop giftcards for Christmas so I'm probably going to get Zelda soon.

Zelda will be my next purchase as well, whenever I get sick of Stardew Valley.

Update on Stardew, now have chickens and cows plus 2 silos stocked ready to go 1 day away from winter. Upgraded Axe and Pickaxe to steel, have about 7k in gold, up floor 85 in the mine. In the winter plan is to reach bottom of mine and get as much gold as possible and focus on the comunity center bundles. Really want to start making beer and wine for next yr.

I'm telling you, get some pigs as soon as you can afford it.

Oh for sure, that's on the list. Hope to have them by the end of the winter. Reading/watching through some speed runs (racing to $1M) I'm picking up some tips and seeing how I was off to a slow start when I first started playing.

This was announced yesterday, I think. It looks pretty cool, but geared towards kids.

Haven't been playing much as nothing is really out that appeals to me (outside of Zelda).

Played Stardew Valley, Resident Evil Revelations 2, Mario Odyssey.I have Sonic Mania but it doesn't hold my attention. I got Golf Story from a rec, but I can't get into it. 

Anyone got any other game recs? Or are you excited about something coming out?

Super Smash Bros was announced recently, which I'm looking forward to. Also considering Wolfenstein II and Metroid Prime when they are released later this year. I hadn't played for a month or so but ended up starting a new story on Stardew Valley this weekend.

I'll be all over prime if it's like the sidescroller. If it's the the gamecube version, I'll pass.

I've thought about starting a new Farm, but I really want to play with Mods on the computer.

Update: I've been playing Skyrim a ton on the switch and it's great. I was a bit concerned about the port as the graphics were reduced. However the loading time has improved dramatically, ton of fun to play. I'm roughly 25 hours into it and barely scratched the surface.

Waiting for Dark Souls to come out, but looks like that was pushed back til the end of the summer.

Anyone else get the Switch online service? I've been playing the hell out of NES Open (golf) and Tennis.

I have not, hadn't even heard of it until you posted this.

It's a pretty good deal. I think $3.99/mo or $20 for the entire year. It gives you access to a decent catalog of old NES games, that I believe they will be adding to every so often.
