So I went ahead and ordered this keychain because why not? This thing is heavy! It's half inch thick and mostly metal. Feels like it was removed from a real arcade machine. It's way too heavy to carry around with me so I have it on my desk at work. I really like it.
He's not wrong:
Nagoshi says, "I think that the number of console games in the lives of ordinary game fans may be a little excessive"
That's cool.
Can you put an actual coin through it?Nope
Beat The Last of Us Part II and I really enjoyed the story. Definitely an emotionally heavy game but I was completely invested in it all the way through. Despite having spoiled myself on the story when it first came out I still really felt the emotional back and forth I had towards the characters. Terrific performance by the actors portraying them.
My daughter is playing Thank Goodness You're Here to completion for the third time!
George Burns had a dirty joke about that. Here is Carl Reiner recounting it on Conan:

1 minute 40 seconds in.
How is it?
It's fantastic. Probably not quite appropriate for a six year old but she doesn't get the double entendres.

It is quite unique, so a bit hard to put in a genre box.
First the art style is amazing, and I love watching her play it just because ti si so entertaining visually. It is also legitimately funny.
Kind of like a point and click platformer but very relaxing. Problem solving that is twisted, but not arcane.
Shortish, about 3 hours, more if you go hunting achievements.
Absolutely is. And made by boys from the North too.

This could only ever have worked if all he ever said was 'Well excuuuuuse me princess'
Also acceptable: “Bitch, please!”
Been playing this gem of a game I bought for £2.
Manual Samuel.
You play as this guy who dies and makes a deal with death. You have to function as a living corpse and control yourself manually for 24 hours.
It's hilarious, you have to use button controls to move your character. So a shoulder button to move one leg, the other to move the other leg.
You have to blink and even breathe in and out. Your body flops about and there's a narrative commentary, fully voiced that narrates all the things you do and mistakes you make.
It's an adventure game. Same devs have a demo out for their next game the Holy Gosh Darn which is different but similarly appealing.
So the latest Switch 2 "leak" from Nash Weedle says that Switch 2 will have two different power modes in portable play.
A battery optimised mode and a performance mode. But only those two.
Given how most powerful handhelds bleed dry in like an hour, is this really a good choice?
I guess playing it plugged in will be good. Switch should have had an unchained performance mode. Because the screen is only 720p, they could have used the extra performance for increased resolution and better framerates.
Playing Switch 1 games handheld on Switch 2 will be great, if it uses the 1080p screen and DLSS.
