What Video Game Are You Playing These Days?

[ShiaOfMahdi]

Finally got a good half an hour worth of exercise by playing Ring Fit Adventure. Also I renewed my little brother's Switch online subscription so that he could play Splatoon 2 and 3 online. He has been enjoying Splatoon 3 a lot. Due to his subscription running out on the game's launch day, he couldn't join the first Splatfest of Splatoon 3. Splatfasts are the big deal in Splatoon.

Don't play many games anymore

Same. I only play on my Nintendo Switch mostly with some PC gaming in between. I mostly tend to just play Animal Crossing New Horizons, Mario Golf: Super Rush, Mario Tennis Aces, Nintendo Switch Sports, Ring Fit Adventure, and Mario Strikers: Battle League. The Nintendo Switch is a good system if you don't get the time to play games much. I have a lot of games for my Switch but I only play a few of them that are my favorites.

Just now I played Doom Eternal on my Switch, Animal Crossing New Horizons, Nintendo Switch Sports, and Mario Tennis Aces.

So I just got Mega Man 11 on the Nintendo Switch via the eShop since it was on sale. I will say that it is now one of my favorite Mega Man games. It is well balanced in terms of difficulty since there are difficulty options to choose from. I held off until it was on sale.

I also have enjoyed Doom Eternal and Mario Strikers: Battle League. I also got a good workout with Ring Fit Adventure.

Also I sent my Neon Blue Left JoyCon in for repair and Nintendo sent it back. I am waiting for it to arrive.

My JoyCon arrived and as it turns out Nintendo replaced the entire JoyCon rather than replace the analog stick on the one that I sent in. Either ways, the JoyCon feels new. It's better than my old one. Nintendo has good customer service for repairs (especially regarding JoyCon drift). The best part is that my repair happened locally.

[ShiaOfMahdi]

So Black Friday is on. Nintendo has a special regular Switch Mario Kart 8 Deluxe bundle with three months of Switch online. It's pretty typical stuff as in the last few years. We have the Pokemon Scarlett and Violet edition Switch bundles. Also several Switch games are on sale like Zelda Breath of the Wild, Link's Awakening Remake, and even Mario Party Superstars. I might get Zelda back since it was on Wii U. Also I play very few games at most. I'd say its worth getting a Switch OLED and Zelda BOTW now before Tears of the Kingdom comes out. Ring Fit Adventure, Switch Sports, and Splatoon 3 are good games to go along with Zelda when buying a Switch OLED.

[ShiaOfMahdi]

So I got The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild back since it was on sale. I had the game on Wii U but I sold the Wii U and my older consoles last year so I needed a Zelda game on the Switch while waiting for Tears of the Kingdom.

[ShiaOfMahdi]

Today, I might get a PS3 Slim for $100 with a few games. I will play the games that are still on PS3 and haven't been re-released yet.

PS3 and ps2 are the best. I recommend you to get it brother.

So I tried to get it and the seller tested it and it didn't work so I wound up getting Metroid Dread for the Switch since I have been wanting to play it. Alhamdullilah, it is a good game. Also the most popular Nintendo Switch games like Zelda are on sale and that's why I got Zelda back. It's a really good game. Also I just started getting paid so I figured I get my first two games from my job. I will get a PS3 later on when I find another cheap deal and one that works. I will also get PS3 games since they're cheaper than PS4 and PS5 games. I only ever got to play on friends PS3s and Xbox 360s while I owned a Wii back then. I mostly prefer PC and Nintendo Switch these days. I like how Nintendo's exclusives are on the Switch while PlayStation has just started releasing games on PC and Xbox doing the same thing. I will get Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom when it comes out. That's the last game that I'm interested in these days because I play few games as I focus on college. Also, the Switch OLED is the best model of Switch to get if you're going to get a Switch. I'd say the Switch is worth it because of its unique exclusives and the hybrid nature. It's a big step up from both PSP and Vita.

So we are getting a third update to Mario Strikers: Battle League.

This is exciting. We have Bowser Jr. and Birdo added into the game along with a new stadium and new gear as well.

I like Strikers Battle League better than FIFA.

I was finally to get my hand on a PS5. I'm currently playing Horizon Forbidden West. Surprisingly, its a good game.

It game with the console so I didn't buy it. I haven't got the chance to buy or play other games.

Sometimes I used to the movies of video games being played. E.g. Outlaw, Evil within.

Inshallah, I will get a PS5 for my siblings. I will game mostly on PC and Switch though. I am still waiting for a good deal on PS3 Slim or Super Slim because PS3 games are cheaper than PS4 and PS5 counterparts these days.

[ShiaOfMahdi]

So there is a new Nintendo Direct tommorow.

I am hoping for more details on The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. It's one of the most anticipated sequels of this year. I also hope for more details on Metroid Prime 4. It is one of the most anticipated games on the Switch.

Also, the Nintendo Switch has sold 122.55 million units worldwide and has outpaced the PS4 and the original Game Boy + Game Boy Color. The Switch is quickly becoming the next best console of all time right up there with PS1, PS2, PS3, Xbox 360, and Wii. It also has a great backlog of games to choose from including The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and the upcoming Tears of the Kingdom.

So today, Metroid Prime 1 is getting remastered. It's a great game. Tears of the Kingdom is looking promising for me. It is getting a special edition. I hope to pick it up.

Edited February 8 by ShiaOfMahdi

[ShiaOfMahdi]

So I finally beat Metroid Dread. So far the game was fun and challenging. I am going to pick up Metroid Prime Remastered eventually and I might get The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom but it will have to be the regular edition since the special editions are too expensive for me.

Recently started replaying Mass Effect: Andromeda and realized what an epic game it is. If you like a good space gameplay, I highly recommend it on the PS4 as well as the Xbox.

Metroid Prime Remastered is also a good space game as well. It's a remaster of a GameCube and Wii classic. It's only on Nintendo Switch.

So I just got a PS3. I have three games for it. Street Fighter X Tekken, Ninja Gaiden II, and Fallout New Vegas. I will try to trade two games for the Last of Us.

[ShiaOfMahdi]

I finally traded Ninja Gaiden II and Fallout New Vegas for the Last of Us. I enjoyed the Last of Us. It is better than the second one and the remake on PS5.

[ShiaOfMahdi]

So Nintendo revealed more gameplay for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. There is also a new Switch OLED model themed after the game coming out.

The game looks amazing and is worth getting a Switch for if you haven't already.

I am still trying to get it. I am going to get The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom eventually when I get enough money for it. There is also a special edition OLED Switch for the game. It looks great. It's also worth picking up if you don't already have a Switch.

IMO it’s better if you get the ps4 because there is no much difference. My ps4 is still in good condition and many news games are released on ps4

Yeah but I have my Switch already for the Switch exclusives including the new Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom as well as some of the new games to play on the go natively. I am waiting for the PS5 Slim to come out to get a PS5 and its backwards compatible with PS4 games. Plus I am going to get the PS5 and PS4 exclusives on it and see them with better resolutions and enhancements. I also plan on getting the next gen Switch 2/Super Switch as well. If you want to play the Switch games as well, the Switch OLED is the model to get. The Tears of the Kingdom Special Edition Switch OLED comes out next month and it looks cool.

That will take a lot of time, maybe after 2-3 years. 
 

[ShiaOfMahdi]

So I upgraded my PS3's 160GB hard drive to a Kingston 240GB SSD. It works well and everything is snappier. I will try to get more games for my PS3 such as Metal Gear Solid 4 as well as Metal Gear Solid HD Collection while I wait for PS5 prices to go down.

Nice. Also the Zelda edition Switch OLED is out. It's worth getting if you don't own a Switch yet. I am excited to get Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. The game looks great. The Switch has a lot of great games worth playing including Zelda and Metroid Prime Remastered. You will have a blast.

[ShiaOfMahdi]

So I finally got Metal Gear Solid IV and Uncharted 1 for the PS3. I just started playing Uncharted. So far it is fun. Will try Metal Gear Solid IV. PS3 games are relatively cheap for many compared to their PS4 counterparts and there is not much of a difference. Also I plan on getting the Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom as well.

Haven't seen you in a long time. Nice that you got a PS5. I will get one eventually when the prices go down. Right now I am playing my PS3 and Nintendo Switch.

Metal Gear Solid

This brought back a long-forgotten memory, probably from 2010 or so. I used to play Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker on the PSP. I was obsessed with it. Sadly, I think I lost it during traveling and never found it again. It was a solid game. If anyone still has it and would like to share it, I'd be more than happy to rent it out for a couple of months.

[ShiaOfMahdi]

So I got The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom at the midnight launch near my GameStop. They had it. So far it is a better sequel than The Last of Us 2. It's a great game that's worth picking up a Switch (especially the OLED model for along with Breath of the Wild if you haven't already played it.
