Oh dear, Bravely Default 2 really hasn’t done well over there at all. That’s not a good sign for the future of JRPGs.
I always gravitate to the XBox sales, and it never disappoints.
Shame to see the Series S selling so poorly as it is an amazing console for the price.
@Mr-Fuggles777
That may be all Microsoft is sending over to Japan, 23 Series S consoles a week.
Which would be hilarious now I think about it!
GOOD! Mario 3D World deserves to sell a gazillion copies...my favourite game of ALL time. I still own it on WiiU, but the Switch port is just SO much improved!
@Toads-Friend It can't be the best game of all time, it doesn't have playable Yoshi.. or have him in there at all.
I kid, I kid. It's a great game. Not the best imo but it's certainly really really good.
It's insane. The sum of every other console is less than Switch lite and if add Switch lite to the sum it's a little more than the standard Switch
3D World still doing well, I was dubious about re-buying it but I'm so glad I did, so many levels have had me laughing, I'd forgotten how much fun and how creative it is. I haven't even touched Bowser's Fury yet either.
@Mr-Fuggles777 Xbox consoles have always gone down badly in Japan, they've never had software on there that appeals to their market. Big budget western "AAA" titles in general sink without trace in weeks.
Can't wait to see what Monster Hunter Rise does in the next 2 weeks....
@Mr-Fuggles777 From what is said the issue with series s is that its playing xbox one s version of the previous games, opposed to the series x that makes them look better and run better
Ring fit is still on the move! Wonder how...probably covid because its a workout game
@TheLightSpirit Pretty much the problem with most Square Enix turn-based titles. I have been playing FFXII on Switch lately, but even with the high speed mode, I have grind fatigue. Everything's smooth-running for hours and then you hit a boss that is inexplicably high powered and you realize this is the point where you need to go in and out of the same area for hours to level up... Ugh...
@nessisonett Part of that is because of Square-they published it in JP, Nintendo published it everywhere else. For some reason, they left the game understocked, just like they did with Octopath, and retailers ran out.
And the Switch has taken over the top 10 chart once again. The PS5 is going to get a lot more momentum in time after stock issues are resolved, but I'm wondering if they'll try to regain ground in Japan. They seem focused on the West and fighting over it with Microsoft.
@Doktor-Mandrake there's definitely performance improvements on the Series S like massively reduced (to almost non existent) load times and increased Framerates upto 120FPS.
Destiny 2 now runs at 60 FPS on Series S and the load times have been drastically cut back and Gears 5 runs at 1440p and 120FPS online. For less money than a switch I definitely can't complain
One drawback is that most optimised game don't run at 4k on Series S but as I havnt bought a 4k TV yet that isn't a problem.
@Mr-Fuggles777 Like you said they're definitely good value for money when you look at the power of them under the hood, even as a pc player I'm a little jelly heh
Dont think I'd ever get the new consoles though I'm quite happy just playing on my switch, pc and my old consoles.
I guess a lot of that is that I dont have interest in many new titles these days that call for an upgrade, the new halo infinite looks like might be decent but my pc can run that, exclusives definitely played a big role for my in the past probably why my only current console is a switch
@nessisonett https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/189706-nintendo-switch/79329611
@Doktor-Mandrake I sold my Xbox after gears 4 and nothing else was announced so I've got a few titles to catch up on. I also love how I can try new games with GamePass I would normally take a chance on and I dont need to worry about buying new games as they are already free (with the subscription)
Saying that, if you have a PC you already have access to the service so an Xbox would definitely be surplus to requirement.
@Mr-Fuggles777 Crossbuy is another nice thing they did, not all games use it but I think most if not all 1st party Microsoft titles you dont need to buy twice, if a pc player was to buy an xbox or vice versa
Yup game pass is good value for money really, played through gears 5 campaign and a lot of sea of thieves for £1 for a month so cant complain. Its handy for games to complete but know you'll never touch again after finishing them, makes more sense then spending £40-£50 a pop
@nessisonett Future of Old School RPGs, people probably started realizing those aren't very interesting anymore, modern RPGs like Xenoblade and Dragon Quest are doing fine.
I want future 3d Mario games to be more like bowsers fury
@Andrew5678 I don't think Sony will try that hard to be honest, they will want to sell well, but the west is their mainstay now. I think the PS4 showed them that. Of the 116+ million they sold only 9 million were in Japan. Now of the 80 million switches sold so far, nearly 19 million of them was in Japan. Its crazy to think that nearly a quarter of all Switches sold are in one country! The Japanese must really love the hybrid design.
@ObeseChihuahua2 me too! I mean, MS don't need my empathy but I can't help feel it' a bit of a shame.
@WiltonRoots "Big budget western "AAA" titles in general sink without trace in weeks."
Yeah, but that's probably because these games are boring af. What's the point of maps that have the sizes of entire planets (that get thrown into the bin with the next game...), when there's nothing to do in it besides having random icons all over the place and a "story" system that isn't really telling a story but making you run at the "other end of the world" all of the time for no reason? Like, when I played FarCry New Dawn, which I only played because someone gifted it to me, I wondered all the time when it's going to start. And who are all this random people that seem to be important in some way. The only NPC that's worth remembering is Joseph Seed. The others... eh I don't even remember the names of the bad twin girl finalbosses. Then suddenly the game told me to kill them. And then one of them suuuddenly had regrets and you can decide to let her stay alive. Which... doesn't impact the game in any way. In general, that game was so incredible boring... If I wouldn't be a completionist I would've never beated that game because everything was so extremely boring and horribly written. Western games have no soul, no heart... And from the gameplay it doesn't matter if you play 3, 4, 5 or ND. Heck, it's basically an Assassins Creed with guns. Triple Meh bLockBusToR games are boring...
Fenyx Rising looks nice at least, and not as boring like other Ubipoop games... Realistic graphic styles are incredible boring to me, sorry... But the demo was enough to tell me that it's your usual Ubipoop game.
Hmm... I'm currently playing an indie game called Game Dev Tycoon. It's cute. I like it... but after some analysis (it's an ingame function to help you design better games) I realized that western people apparently have an entire different idea about RPGs. For example in that game Sound is rated "- - -" for RPGs, which means it isn't important for RPGs (and for whatever reason RPGs are "+ + +" on PC. LOL!! RPGs ON PC!!). Well, when I think about it... When do western RPGs have music... Dragon Age is silent nearly all the time, sadly, but then when you see a dragon it's suddenly playing some "not as exciting as you would think"-dragon-boss track. Heck, people even defend this artistic inferiority and laziness (I wonder where all the budget went... graphics, marketing and the CEOs pocket, eh?), say it would be "minimalistic music". That's sad... Because FOR ME sound is "+ + +" in RPGs. I love how Japanese RPGs give you so much music you want to download from Youtube and listen to on a nearly daily base... I always wonder where Japan draws this creativity from. How can all these games have so much music? And it's different every time. I couldn't even compose an SMS-NotificationSound without getting copyright problems...
But in the west, these so called "big budget AAA blockbusters" are mostly about running around in silence and killing random enemies for no reason, because you always have faceaggro. Oh and there is a flower. And there. And there too! And lumber! And ores! You can loot garbage with every step you make... imo games shouldn't be about running around aimlessly in a way too big but empty world just to get loot... If that's really all what it takes to please the western audience... That's sad...
@WiltonRoots,
And the fact the Japanese do not seem to like buying western consoles.
@TheLightSpirit "Agreed. This sort of repetitive gameplay was ok back in the day but today? not so much."
The CEO of Ubisoft just fell off the chair while laughing at this sentence. And you probably triggered all the people who enjoy MOBAs, MMORPGs, Battle Royales, and the other "cool" genres people love these days.
Wow the Switch Lite took back its place from the PS5 twins. Impressive indeed.
At this point Sony must be seething. It's struggling massively in its home territory. Even if it does better elsewhere, that has to sting.
@WiltonRoots If you haven't tried Bowser's Fury, you're in for a treat. UNPOPULAR OPINION! I've enjoyed it more than Odyssey. I would also note that the duration of the game is not an issue for me. Luigi's Mansion and Star Fox both clock in at about the same length (if you do post game). Having spent close to 200 hours on 3DW on the Wii U, Bowser's Fury was my draw and I have not been disappointed.
@Heavyarms55 I don't think they care to be honest, Japan is not their priority anymore. They've just shown that with the Japanese studio. They are sending nearly all the supply to the west because that is now their main audience, the main focus for the games. In the UK the PS5 was the top selling console in Feb because we got a big resupply. Nintendo have Japan with a brilliant hybrid design that Sony can't compete with so why bother. I'm pretty sure that sales number is every ps5 they sent to Japan, so don't think they are struggling at all.
@1UP_MARIO A true open World Mario Game would be Incredible!
@Altina
Um... I played some Ubisoft games such as Imagine series, Petz series, Gold Gym Cardio Workout, the casual games that published by Ubisoft.
Btw, do you like Japanese Rhythm games ?
PS2 is the right machine to play DDR, Beatmania IIDX, Pop'n Music, Drummania, Para Para Paradise, Taiko no Tatsujin.
Forget Just Dance, Guitar Hero, Rock Band, etc with too Western songs.
@TheLightSpirit I found the same thing when I tried to play the first game on 3DS. Really wanted to like it but was just bored.
@saotomemtl Out of all the JRPGs I've played on Switch, FFXII is the only one that I couldn't finish. Made it about ten hours or so before deciding that it wasn't worth forcing myself.
@nessisonett it’s doing well on the European eShop so hopefully that’s also the case in Japan
@Heavyarms55 "At this point Sony must be seething. It's struggling massively in its home territory."
Well the PS5 isn't really available (also has no games. Aside from FFXVI and Neps ReVerse all Japanese games in 2021 and 2022 will be on PS4 as far I'm aware of.). Also, Japan is currently kinda angry at Sony for multiple reason. I explained that often enough here already and I assume multiple people are kinda annoyed by me now and pressed the block button, so I'm letting someone else do it this time. This blog for example, if you care: https://outrageousfacts.wordpress.com/2021/01/07/blog-034-sony-and-japan-a-divorce-in-the-making/
@Anti-Matter "Btw, do you like Japanese Rhythm games ?
PS2 is the right machine to play DDR, Beatmania IIDX, Pop'n Music, Drummania, Para Para Paradise, Taiko no Tatsujin.
Forget Just Dance, Guitar Hero, Rock Band, etc with too Western songs."
I do, sometimes... I actually even bought a PS2 this year and softmodded it (You can buy an 8MB PS2 memory card that has everything you need pre-installed for like 10€. Just lookup 'Kaico Free Mcboot' on Amazon.). But... I prefer the Vita. It has some Hatsune Miku games, IA/VT Colorful, the rythm spinoffs from Persona 3 and 5, and other stuff.
"Um... I played some Ubisoft games such as Imagine series, Petz series, Gold Gym Cardio Workout, the casual games that published by Ubisoft."
Yeah, sorry, when I talk about Ubisoft I mean AC, FC, WD, stuff like that... The only things I would buy from Ubi these days are Monopoly and UNO. ...Please forgive me my ignorance. x3
I guess Nintendo be on top of the charts gives people a reason to believe the rumors about the Nintendo Switch pro.
@Altina Yep those big western games leave me a bit cold...it's the dead eyed mannequins. Plus for me they tend to be a bit too far up their own backsides, too bloated, and take themselves way too seriously.
@Altina I'm not really buying the PS5 shortage excuse much anymore. It's March. If they haven't been able to get product onto shelves at this point, Sony clearly should not have released the machine when they did. They did not have sufficient supply lines in place. And I'm fair in this - Nintendo struggled to meet demand too. But in Nintendo's case, they were coming off of a massive commercial failure from the Wii U. So it was more reasonable to assume lower sales numbers at first. For Sony, PS4 is/was a very successful machine. They should have planned better. And Sony is a much larger company, producing many other products. They have more raw resources available to them than a company like Nintendo that's primarily a video game company alone.
I do think numbers would be better if Sony got more systems on the shelves and had more games to make people need/want to upgrade. But that's their own fault. Again, I think they were not ready to launch.
@Muddy_4_Ever Good to hear! Saving it as a treat until I get further down the line with 3D World...
@Altina
After reading the link about Sony in peril, i was thinking PS5 will be like Wii U situation when Japanese developers and players got treated with new Sony's policy like that.
I just never understand what is the big deal by block buster et cetera et cetera games ?
They are only cookie cutter gritty games for peoples who have no sense of fun.
Are peoples already lost their sanity to indulge in such of gritty and gory entertainments ?
I hate the portraying of being a Western gamer must be gritty and violent all the times.
I mean, i really hate them.
It was completely wrong to be a human like that. Totally wrong.
And that's why i always rolled my eyes whenever i browsed PS3 and PS4 games library from online shop just to find decent casual / kids games. 🙄
I felt extremely disgusted by those 18+ games.
@nessisonett I take it more as an indictment on Bravely Default II. In my opinion, Old-school RPG's have to get the presentation just right in order to succeed. BDII's art design was veering way too heavily on 3D assets for my tastes, and the character models just did not work whatsoever.
Now that HD2D has become a game series for Square Enix, I'll probably end up buying those more than the Bravely series, if BDII is anything to go by.
@Anti-Matter Oh. And here was I asking if you're that guy who writes that blog. He's Antimatter too.
Hmm... If you enjoyed the read... Read these two too.
https://outrageousfacts.wordpress.com/2021/02/23/blog-044-does-sony-plan-to-ruin-anime-as-a-whole/
https://outrageousfacts.wordpress.com/2021/02/25/sales-facts-exodus-from-sonys-sidelines/
Hmm... Guess at some point I won't be even save on Nintendo, thanks to Sony...
No anime... No games... I should probably search for a new hobby... <sigh>
These rules are really stupid... That's just pure hypocrisy and obviously racism. I mean, did the people from Sony ever play western games? In GTA5 you NEED to TORTURE a guy to progress the story. There's also a stripclub. And you can pay women "for services" and then kill them to get your money back.
In TLOU2 you need to watch how your father gets killed with a golf club. And the entire game is about anger and hate...
I bet in Dragon Age 4 you would still be able to receive a trophy for "having fun with another person"...
But when western people see an anime girl they instantly tilt and think everything Japanese is about "liking children"... Seriously, what's wrong with white people? The older I get the more I'm ashamed of being white myself and my social phobia is already so intense that I got sent into retirement when I was in my late 20s... What am I supposed to do with all that time without games (I really dislike that western games are so extremely violent these days... and that you can "do people"... and even get an achievement for that... sic!) and anime...
@Heavyarms55 Yeah, but the XBox Series S/X is using the same AMD Ryzen CPU. Where can you buy an XBox Series X? I only see the S, if at all. The Switch is using an nVidia Tegra. That's based on a different (also mobile), and older technology. Also, AMD isn't producing CPUs by themself. Because they got very close to bankruptcy in the past they sold all their production and are these days only designing their stuff. Their CPUs get build by TSMC ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TSMC ). And they said that they lack in resources (and are short in providing capacities, because everyone(TM) is producing their chips at TSMC.). I also read something about... forgive my English at 4am... a water based natural disaster having hit the company. (I also read that electric cars are using above 30,000 chips. Guess who's producing them.)
Resources are in fact so short, that nVidia also has troubles with delivering RTX2xxx and RTX3xxx chips. (In China they even found crypto mining farms put together with RTX3xxx LAPTOPS because the desktop cards are in extremely short supply.) They decided to go back to producing GTX1050TI chips, to at least have something to offer. Questionable, and outdated, but not thaaat bad apparently... It's a fairly popular chip. https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/videocard/
@Yosher Hopefully, we'd get to hatch him from eggs hidden in ? Blocks in sequel.
@1UP_MARIO While they also continue creating "3D" Marios as a separate series.
*3D as in, classic Mario gameplay in 3D.
@Toads-Friend I hope there'd be a sequel sooner or later.
A return to the dreamland Subcon to face Wart and his minions again would be great!
And just like the classic game:
@RendellDraw I'd prefer him fully playable but I'll settle for him being a mount.
@Serialsid In Japan, people work a LOT, and are always on the move, so they love portable gaming. The main reason Nintendo's dominated over their was their handhelds-they've always sold great and gotten great support. With the Switch, you have the benefits of a handheld with the option to hook up to the big screen, the excitement makes perfect sense.
I understand Japan not being their main market, but it feels like Sony hasn't done much to appeal to them. A big focus on Western titles, and the PS5 still being understocked after so long (not just Japan, but it's notable since that's their home territory) are just a few reasons people over there aren't enthused for a PS5. I've never been a big Playstation guy, but I can't say I see a lot of reasons to pick up a PS5 right now until more big games line up.
@Altina It doesn't matter what chip parts a company uses in their product. One of two things has happened with Sony and arguably with MS too. Either they grossly under estimated demand for their new consoles or they failed to ensure they'd have an adequate supply of parts to produce them. In either case, the mistake is on them.
This would be like Ford Motor or GM releasing a new vehicle, spent months advertising it but not being able to produce them because they didn't make sure they'd have enough of a specific special part that they purchase from another company. Or if a restaurant did the same with a new dish, but didn't bother to ensure they have enough ingredients.
The only other option I can see as a slim chance is, if the company supplying the chip they need deliberately misled Sony or MS and promised considerably more than they could actually deliver. In which case Sony and MS are only to blame as victims for being deceived. But I find that very unlikely because that kind of blatant lying in business is a good way to lose any sort of reputation for reliability. And trust is something that's very very hard to earn back.
@Heavyarms55 Hmm... That's kinda victim blaming if you ask me. Like, if you want to hold a speech based on a script I wrote and the sleepyhead I'm I was sleeping for like 15 hours and didn't make it in time... Would you tank the blame?
...Or would you think "Damn F-ing Altina is sleeping the whole day again! What's wrong with that girl?! -.-#" and then try to move the blame torwards me because it actually is my fault?
Oh don't worry... Sony is never going to get the trust of a lot of people back... But that's not related with the PS5. ;D Actually they're even making it worse... More and more Japanese devs are angry at them. One of their own Japanese studios is even falling apart at the moment. And I just read tonight that Sony is buying up anime to put their stupid new hypocrite censor rules on them that for whatever reason only count for Japanese stuff while it's totally okay to torture and brutally serial kill in western games or even getting rewarded with trophies for literally doing women... But show an American a picture of a fully dressed anime girl that's just sitting around peacefully and they're going to tilt, think about questionable adult garbage. THE F IS WRONG WITH AMERICANS?... But eh, that happens when you move headquarters to the fortress of hypocrisy and fake people... California, as if anywhere else in the US wouldn't be bad enough... Oh well. I just hope Nintendo is getting more influence in the next years. I really don't want to lose my two most beloved hobbies (anime and Japanese games) just because the white people assume pervert garbage when they see females... Y'ALL SHOULD SEEK THERAPY!! I mean... I'm in my 30s but never in my life I was thinking "in that direction" when I saw a DRAWING (or in general when I was looking at a person in real life... Oo)... I'm not religious, but all dem white people need Jesus. NOW!!
@Andrew5678 yes it's obvious that Japan loves handhelds and the switch is brilliant for that. Nintendo has Japan locked down so why would Sony try and compete head on. They are under delivering systems there because they want to focus on the regions where they sell well now. But the reports of the riots at a gaming store that had stock of PS5s (the police were called) shows there is enthusiasm for the console in Japan.
@Heavyarms55 I think Sony is pretty much western focused these days.
The hardest hit will be some of the Japanese devs who exclusively did Playstation games, the sort that kept making games for PSVITA years after Sony abandoned the platform themselves.
Like the COO of SEGA and guy behind Yakuza may have egg on his face for saying the Switch is "just for kids and teens" when the latest Yakuza port on PS5 launched last week at less than 3k in Japan.
Well deserved for Bowsers Fury alone. 3D World is a great game anyway but Bowsers Fury surprised me-really, really good fun.
@Altina I sent you A switch friend code request My names in Japanese & has "III" Anyway not only do I agree that Japanese games are more creative than walking simulators or generic FPS shooters from the west but also: Japanese Entertainment overall is superior to western entertainment. Anime in general is so popular that Netflix Sony & Hollywood in general are bidding for streaming right for each anime series. Also manga sales are destroying American comic book sales. Don't forget that Nintendo is going to have theme parks in every Universal park & Mario is phase 1. Animal Crossing was the highest grossing game last year & it wasn't a Rockstar type GTA game or shooter with micro Transactions. (I don't count call of duty because of microtransactions). Also Nintendo Switch has games where PS5 & SERIESX doesn't. Monster Hunter World Pokrmon Snap BRAVELY DEFAULT II not to mention the switchs back catoluge. Also once the lockdown is over I'll take my switch on the go with my friends & travel anywhere CityWalk, movies theme park. I'm not stuck to a monitor or TV. I can use it as a social device to mingle on a date with a girl playing mario kart handheld etc.... Also Nintendo & Illumination are making an animated Mario Movie with Nintendo being heavily involved to make sure they don't have a disaster like the like action film from the 90s.
@Altina Speaking facts 😤
@Altina That's it we're friends now lol. Sony is Woke entertainment. Remember when they moved to California in 2016? https://www.wsj.com/articles/sony-moves-playstation-headquarters-to-california-1453794813 I know how California is because I live there. Hollweird & Silicon Valley especially Frisco are woke & beielve that everything has to be political & "the right side of history". Hypocrite 🤡that say you shouldn't force your values on the alphabet community but they want to do that to Japan???
https://www.pushsquare.com/news/2018/12/sony_thinks_of_the_children_as_senran_kagura_producer_laments_censorship Senran Kagura's infamous statement "ThInK Of ThE ChILdReN" XD lol. I can't beielve the Japanese executives over at Sony let the allowed woke western 🤡 not only still their manhood from them but also their company in that order. That would be like someone coming in my house & punking me & I'm just taking it doing nothing.
@SnesSwitch I'd like an Open World Mario Game that's a sequel to 3D World with new power ups & also online CO-OP. Also Pauline Waluigi Wario Daisy & Yoshi should be added to the cast. Of the first 3D World game including another side story with Bowser Jr. Where you can unlock him.
@BRANDINOIII Welcome on my very shot friendlist, dood. Enjoy your stay.
Yeah, using children as an excuse always is very cheap... Also, when I sold my PS4 Pro some woman told me that her son has his 9th birthday. And then asked me if I would have GTA5 or any CoD or AC. ...Pardon? Lady you just said he's 9... Nobody ever cares about children. But when it's about something Japanese everyone is freaking out for no reason just because it's from foreigners. Or maybe because westeners have this stupid mindset that when something is drawn it's meat to be for children. Like, the Germans dubbed Detective Conan until episode333. With cuts and some whole episodes missing. The translations sometimes aren't even making sense because of the cuts and because they wanted things to be suitable for younger children. Then they stopped dubbing it because "Children shouldn't see corpses all the time". Uhhh... I mean... If I would have a little child I wouldn't let them watch SouthPark, American Dad, Family Guy, Simpsons, Happy Tree Friends and stuff like that either... What? Oh, it's okay to show them that, because it's western stuff and western stuff is good and "safe"?
...Let me know when Rockstar announces that GTA6 will be rated ESRB-T/PEGI12/USK12 and that I'm not able to visit stripclubs anymore, and that I can't pay women for "services" and kill them afterwards to get my money back anymore, and that I don't need to torture someone, that I don't need to hear a word anymore every two minutes people would beat me up for if I would use it, etc etc... THE POOR CHILDREN!!!11
I bet 200€ that Dragon Age 4 will again have a "Sleep with another character"-type of achievement. THE POOR CHILDREN!!!1
Because everything ever needs to be suitable for little children... yeah... sure... jeez... Why does it bother people so much when other people are happy? Why does everyone always need to destroy everything for everyone just because they don't like it themself?
@Altina (sorry for the late response) Thank God for Japan. I'm excited to see Demon Slayer Mugen Train in theatres & I've been playing 3D World Age of Calamity & Undertale. What games are you playing on Switch?
@BRANDINOIII I have a wishlist that's hitting the 400 mark soon. Nintendo games, JRPGs, Visual Novels, Indies and casual games mostly.
At first, I'm new here and have my Switch for around a month, I will get all the Nintendo-published games, because these are the most expensive. And then I will pickup whatever is currently on sale. I don't have a roadmap for getting games. Except it's Pokemon, then I will always try to get it asap. Usually I will just go with the flow and see what's on sale. No need to rush. Mhh~ IF it comes to the west in 2021, which I doubt, Hajimari no Kiseki will be an "as close as possible to day1"-pickup. Kiseki (Trails) and Pokemon are my two most favorite series ever. Can't do anything wrong with these two.
But for next month I planned Mario 3D All-Stars, Zelda BotW, Pokemon Sword and Pokemon LGE. I already own the Pokemon Sword seasonpass because I had a Switch Lite some time ago only for Pokemon. And, well, I had Zelda BotW recently but I gave it away because I had a financial hiccup. I do have that seasonpass too though. These four picks are obvious though. That Zelda is really enjoyable. That Mario gets delisted. The Pokemon, well, I'm in Pokemon mood... Currently playing Pokemon Quest to skip some time... And I'm not going to stop playing that until I have all 151 Pokemon there, because that's what I do. 100%ing games.
I think I could do more than these 200€ next month, but I have this feeling that I should play it save until June. I love June. June and December are these fancy months where I have like 1500€ (after bills) to do with as I please, because some very nice people decided that you should get paid 14 times a year in my country. I havn't decided yet what I'm going to do in June... I don't really need a new laptop. My ten years old one is still doing its job. My 1080p screen is fine enough now that I switched from Sony to Nintendo. I don't really need anything else... Maybe the Splatoon Pro-Controller. And a Pokeball Plus because I still have no Mew in my LivingDex. But else... Yeah, lots of food two other Nintendo-published games and then whatever 500 Euros can buy me from my list IF that's in a sale right now. Because aside from Nintendo and Kiseki I get my stuff only from sales... Oh. A bigger microSD-card! Only have 128GB at the moment.
And I could get delivered food. Like salmon rice with teriyaki sauce... <3 But I decided in December that I will only order food three times maximum per month. Because December I ordered food every day. Which was amazing. But... money went POOF... Oh well...
