    That loneliness is not a function of solitude.

    I think I weirdly appreciate the fact that Nintendo games are just kind of happy and joyful more as an adult than I ever did as a kid. When I was in middle school I remember being embarrassed to play Nintendo stuff but as an adult I think it's a breath of fresh air. I'm into plenty of more mature games, but Nintendo games are a nice respite from darker stories and violence. Especially with how terrible the real world has been lately, I've loved sinking into some bright ass Nintendo worlds and forgetting about all that for a bit this year.

    Just played rocket league for the first time ever. Decided to go online. I don’t think I touched the ball once

    Bought Skyrim on Switch. Never played it before. I’m having fun, but it feels so small in comparison to Breath of the Wild.

    Still, I love games like this.

    I’ve been picking up games for the Switch and getting more before even putting time in on the ones I just bought. Still haven’t finished golf story. Put down Stardew for odyssey. Haven’t put much time into odyssey and picked up shovel knight and rocket league. Thinking about getting la noire and Skyrim.

    I really do enjoy watching super Mario odyssey speed runs.

    No. But I’ve read a lot of reviews and videos about it.

    They all said it’s a ridiculously good port. Graphics do take a hit (which is expected) but they did adjustments to make it look good on portable and TV.

    If I remember correctly this was made before the game was out by someone using the demo and measuring based on what they think Link's jogging speed is. It's ridiculously inaccurate. BotW is double the size of Skyrim though.

    Well that’s kind of a let down, but does nothing to diminish the masterpiece :)

    I feel like if BotW’s map was bigger it would be overkill. There is a ridiculous amount of places in the game that reference past zelda titles.

    I just found the forgotten temple last week. I hadn’t played the game it referenced so I didn’t get it immediately though lol.

    Mario first. Spend as much time with BOTW as possible

    Just a friendly reminder

    Lost the first game that I ever played 11-0. Early struggles are real.

    To the JRPG fans: I've heard several people that already have a copy Xenoblade Chronicles 2 say that it is amazing.

    Memories are nice, but that's all they are. Prestigious

    That's great news. I'm very excited for it. Still iffy on the character designs but I'm sure it'll grow on me as I play it

    Yeah I didn't like the character design in X either, but the environments and so on are amazing and they look really good for X2 so far too

    A rare (these days, at least) positive video from Jim here. Can't argue with his position at all, the Switch has been an unqualified success story this year.

    I get a lot of people are prob skipping it/holding off, but Skyrim is a really good port and I'm enjoying it a lot.

    I haven't played it since back around when it was originally released on the 360, and while it still has that classic Bethesda jankiness, it's more endearing this time around and not game-breaking and infuriating.
