Me personally I’d have to say Mina. Lots of strong releases this quarter— Star Fox and Tomodachi Life couldn’t even fit into the poll! For only three months, you cannot say there is any shortage of games. Absolutely not.

Pragmata for me; brilliant game about fatherhood and blowing up evil robots.

Still need to play 007 First Light and Mouse PI for Hire though, waiting on their Switch 2/physical releases respectively.

I'm voting Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth since it released on the Switch 2 this quarter.

curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.

If we're counting late ports then Indiana Jones would be near the top for me, terrific game. Originally came out in 2024 though.
