Your most recent gaming purchases

[Neb]

I got a carrying bag for my PS4 Pro. It has room for the console, controllers, games, and accessories. Considering how much I move my systems around this will come in handy.

• Pre-ordered Splatoon 3 ages ago, and will pick it up today!
• Have an existing pre-order for the Pokémon Violet/Scarlet dual pack. I'm going to take Violet and share Pokémon Scarlet with someone else.
• Bought Kirby's Dream Buffet when it came out. It's very cute, but I've only played it twice. I haven't really had time to play much Switch!
• I was looking for another local multiplayer/local party style game, and ended up getting Rabbids: Party of Legends. It's cute. The mini-games are fun, and you can play it local multiplayer in story-mode, so that's nice. There has to be four players for multiplayer, so if you have two players, you can assign teams (therefore you can do 2v2 against the other player, or do cooperative against the CPU).

Yeah me too! So nostalgic I already answered this for a previous user so I’ll just quote myself.


Out of the four, the mario ones and the zelda one have arrived today and I’ve had an awesome day playing old games the controls were a little tricky to get used to, but I love everything about the experience.

Oh whoops! Didn't see your response before.

I'm glad you're having fun! It's actually really funny how small the SP is and I don't even have big hands lol. Yeah, old game nostalgia is crazy right now. Can't blame everyone for turning back to older games. I've been doing the same thing.

If you ever need recs I can give some! You picked some solid games though so far. Minish Cap was so charming.

Oh I’d love to hear recommendations!

Indeed, it is very small! It feels funny how close together my hands are when holding it. I’ve become so accustomed to holding my massive switch (and my fingers going numb constantly as a consequence) so it’s really refreshing to have such a light and compact device

Minish cap is really quite tricky - I keep getting stuck! So far I really like it ^^

The Switch is heavy for sure! For some reason it feels lopsided, heavier on the right. At least mine does lol. I actually find the 3DS XL heavy too. Holding the SP or DS Lite/DSi is so refreshing.

I'm not sure what games you like but hilariously enough, Hamtaro Ham-Ham Heartbreak is really fun. Like, it had no business being that good for a Hamtaro game lol.

Obviously Pokemon Firered/Leafgreen and Sapphire/Ruby/Emerald are fun if you're into older Pokemon games.

-Kirby Nightmare in Dreamland
-Kirby and the Amazing Mirror
-Sonic Advance 1/2/3

Those were my personal favs! (All like, little kid games lol but it's alright hahahaha)

Yep, the 3DS XL is also really bulky. I don’t have the numb fingers issue with that though.

Thanks for the recommendations! I’ve never played a kirby game so would love to try it! (Also the hamtaro one lol)! The others sound fun too :3 I’ll see if I can find anything affordable online.

 

[al-tirah]

Splatoon 3

 

[BungoTheElf]

SPLATOON 3 BABYYYY!!!!

 

[Violet Witch]

Disney's Dreamlight Valley

 

[Croconaw]

I’ve finally pre-ordered the digital version of Pokémon Violet. I still don’t know if Totodile will be obtainable, but I’m happy to play it with my favorite person nonetheless!

 

[Alienfish]

Splatoon 3. Probs the one purchase I'll make this year haha. I dunno if I will get either of the new Pokémon games, I never really got into Arceus, soo.

 

[Autumn247]

I got Batman Arkham Knight on sale for $3.99 on the Xbox store the other day

 

[KittenNoir]

My most recent purchase is a pre order for a physical copy of Stray on PS5 !!!!

Now if only I can get a ps5 for myself that would be even better.....

 

[Alienfish]

Callie and Marie amiibos. Really wanted them cause outfits and the price for the double-pack was good. I still miss some they only sell as singles here though :/ But they're rather expensive so, we'll see.

 

[Corrie]

I just bought three 3DS games: Cooking Mama Sweet Shop, Pokemon Art Academy, Sonic Generations.

 

[kayleee]

I just bought a game called Potion Permit this morning; I absolutely love the art style but I’m not loooving the gameplay so far. Hopefully I start enjoying it more as I spend more time with it!

 

[Bui]

I recently picked up a copy of Call of Duty: Black Ops, but not the one you're probably thinking of. This one is the game made for Nintendo DS, which I bought partially because I used to own it but lost it years ago, but mainly because for whatever reason I wanted to give the game's Zombies mode another try. The game was dirt cheap too so I didn't feel bad about dropping a few dollars for it, as dated as it might be. I also decided to grab two other DS Call of Duty games (Modern Warfare Mobilized and Modern Warfare 3 Defiance) because they were equally as cheap and they were the last two games in the DS Call of Duty series that I hadn't played yet.

 

[Disneyfangirl23]

I bought some pokecoins on Pokemon Go this Wednesday if that counts

 

[Captain Jigglypuff]

I bought LA Noir, Saints Row 3, and the Kill It With Fire DLC from the eShop. I took advantage of the sale that LA Noir and Saints Row 3 were having.

 

[Groovycat64]

Traded a bunch of stuff at a local game shop and finally decided to pick up The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild for the Switch. Pretty awesome so far. Dunno why I waited so long to get it XD
