    Found my old GBA that I thought I’d gotten rid of because the battery was borked. Turns out the battery still works, it’s the charging light that’s borked. My 6yo saw me rocking Tetris and I let him take a crack at it. He played for two hours straight.

    I’ve mostly thought about playing Balatro, but haven’t gotten around to it as I’ve only watched numbers go big in Untitled Space Idle (idler/clicker/absolute-timewaster).

    It’s been a slow gaming week for me. :D

    edit: maybe I should actually elaborate a bit on the idle-game.

    Essentially: you have space ship, space ship must fight other space ships, which get tougher and tougher the further you go. As you go, you research, build, etc. more things to your ship to make it sturdier, deadlier, and faster, then reset and do it again, but BETTER. Rince and repeat, the usual idle-game loop.

    There’s so many different ways to make the ship better - but you’re gonna need them all anyway, having multiple systems you can/need to level up, but usually can’t do so in one go is just a time sink.

    It’s a simple game but if you identify as “scandisk/defrag watcher”, it’s for you.

    I bought Sonic Adventure 2 Battle cause I watched Sonic 3 this weekend and it was fucking awesome.

    This is the first 3D Sonic game I’ve really played, and I’m having a fun time so far. I’m actually really liking the Chao Garden too.

    Just finished Persona 3 FES. Planning on sitting in the dark with a stiff drink thinking about it for a while, then probably jump into Persona 4 Golden.

    I embarked on a mission to play as many of the Sonic games as my aging laptop will handle last year some time. So far, the only Classic era games I either haven’t started or 100%ed are the odd ones out, like Sonic Eraser, the SegaSonic games and Tails’ Skypatrol. Not sure I’m even gonna bother with Sonic Eraser because it’s actually just a shitty little match 3 game that obviously used Sonic for marketing.

    As far as the Modern era goes, I haven’t got too far in yet because I’ve been pretty hooked on Sonic Adventure. Going to be doing my 3rd run of Sonic Adventure soon, this time with the Japanese voice tracks and the retranslated subtitles mod. I got to the Biolizard in SA2, took a break and haven’t returned to it yet. Honestly a little disappointed with SA2 because I was hoping for more of what we got in SA1 but better, like a hub world to run around in that actually has more to do than just go from point A to point B, like side missions and shit. And I’ve started Sonic Heroes, which is honestly pretty fun so far.

    And the game that I fired up as recently as today was Sonic Advance, where I’ve completed Sonic’s basic run but haven’t collected all the Chaos Emeralds yet. And I’ve just started an Amy Rose run.

    I go through obsessions. My previous mission was to watch every DC Comics adaptation, which has now faded into the background and provides me with something to watch when I can’t find anything else. Just because there’s so damn much of it. And I can see my Sonic the Hedgehog run going the same way because I can already feel that I’m starting to burn myself out with it.

    The next non-Sonic game that I’ll probably get into soon is an indie game called Unsighted that’s been on my to play list for a while now. RPGs are usually my jam but it’s been nice having a break from the lists and endless pinned wiki tabs that usually go along with them.
