A few changes around in my list this year, mostly due to it becoming more full of Yakuza/RGG Studio - played Ishin for the first time this year and it quickly became one of my favourite games ever. Fist of the North Star: Lost Judgement as well, never had any interaction with the franchise before but it was essentially a post-apocalyptic Yakuza game which was just fantastic.

Pokemon Legends Arceus was the Pokemon game I'd envisioned for 20 years, and easily made its way near the top of my list as well, even overtaking the incredible Pokemon Black 2/White 2 - I really need to give them another playthrough, but Arceus was so joyful it's at #4.

A couple of shuffles around the lower end too this year, with Little Nightmares pushed out in favour of Dr Mario 64 and Yakuza 4/Lost Judgement coming in too.

I've just dropped my whole list at once due to lack of time :)
