DragXDrive is one of my favorite releases from Nintendo in many years! Absolute gem. It takes a very simple concept and makes something really fun and digestible out of it. Not overwhelmingly full of content, it is genuinely challenging, and employs a very unique gameplay style (via motion control/mouse). Maybe this’ll sound weird…but it is for these reason why it reminds me of games like Pikmin or Luigi’s Mansion (GCN) which simply expanded upon an addictive and unique gameplay loop. Nothing more.

And best of all,. it's not 1-2 Switch.

Never forget, 1-2 Switch is a bestseller ;)

1-2 Switch costing 3x DragXDrive is insane lol. (And that’s not even accounting for inflation.)

Spoiler!
also, the brutal bots mission in DragXDrive sends me into a state of fight-or-flight and causes great mental distress whenever I as much as think about it. This is one of the most painful missions I’ve ever encountered in a video game. It has been three hours. I am going to have a stroke before I’m finished.

I never had a chance to play the first Kirby Air Ride, so it was a nice surprise to see how the next entry is filled with content. That really changes my perception of this franchise to being just another party racing game similar to MK, I was so wrong to ever think that

MP4 releasing in December? Or do we think Nintendo may pull another MPRemaster and shadow-drop it in September? I don’t believe they’ll be delaying it.

I hope it's out by December.

I wonder if they'll release the original Kirby Air Ride on GCN NSO. I hope so as I never got to play it.

Anyways, started on Persona 5 Royal on Switch.

Loving it so far. 2 hours in.

Its been 10 years since I last played a mainline Persona (Persona 4 on PS4 back in 2015, I did play spinoff Persona Q a few years ago but thats like a Etrian Odyssey clone).

I did play SMTV (OG) and finished it earlier this year but excited to play P5R since it'll be my first time playing it.

They'd be fools to not rerelease the original Kirby Air Ride on NSO. Would've been a great way to promote the sequel.

I've put some hours in the Daemon X Machina Titanic Scion demo and this is most likely going to be a great game.

I'm just saddened by the NS2 framerate. I really wanted to play it portably and it's an actual physical game but the performance is most likely going to push me towards the PS5 version.
