Was spielst du dieses Wochenende? (15. Januar)
Another week down in this new and mysterious year of 2022. This week we got a new trailer and a March release date for the lovely-looking Kirby und das vergessene Land, news hit of Unter uns bekommen a manga, the fifth anniversary of the very first-time we went hands-on with Switch came (and we all got teary-eyed looking back five years to a time when we could meet in a pub and only have to worry about rowdy patrons), and one Thomas Whitehead went on a deep dive exploring the ins and outs of NFTs and the implications for gaming. Tom, we salute you, sir!
Anyhoo, it’s time to chill out and besprechen Sie unsere Spielpläne für das Wochenende. Ein paar MMitglieder des Nintendo Life-Teams haben unten genau das getan, so feel free to give our entries a read and then join in with your own via our comment section. Enjoy!

Having finally put Blasphemous to bed, my gaming time this weekend will be spent on building Lego instead. I ordered the Lego Sonic the Hedgehog Green Hill set a day or two after it went on sale, but it took a while to arrive, scuppering my plans for a little weekend review for you in the process.
I did sit down to start the set, but after an hour I’d only got through two of the six bags in the box — so many little pieces! Keep an eye out next week some time for my overall verdict on the set.
On the off-chance I get to pay an actual video game, I’ll probably spend some more time with Die Tür des Todes.

After playing the opening to Disco Elysium and enjoying it I… haven’t been back for two weeks. Oops, time to continue my investigations in that game, while I’ve also resumed my most recent playthrough of Okami HD, a wonderful game that still looks amazing to this day.
Anderswo I recently purchased Tomb Raider Survivor Trilogy and have been working through the first game. It’s silly fun, and Crystal Dynamics had a real gift for ‘cinematic’ action; I’ve been having a good time with it, even if Lara suffers the Nathan Drake curse of being a mass murderer (along with everyone else in the game, um fair zu sein).

Dieses Wochenende, ich (rather shamefully) should probably take down my Christmas decorations. I’VE BEEN BUSY. When I’m not tangling with lights, I’ll be hopping back into Astroneer — I don’t have an estimate on my play activity yet, but it’s got to be quite a few hours by this point. I’m still having fun, obwohl!
I’ve also been playing a fair bit of Undermine und The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles, and watching my partner play Apollo Justice, and I’ve been toying with the idea of starting Chrono-Auslöser wieder…

I’ve never really considered myself a big Metroid fan until the announcement of Furcht letztes Jahr. Like many, it spurred me to play through Null Mission und Samus kehrt zurück and over the past few weeks I finally made my way through the entirety of Super und Verschmelzung! So with all of those happily off my backlog, I’ve begun the journey to the planet ZDR. The journey of Metroid Dread.
While I do feel there’s enough of a story recap at the start for those choosing Dread as their first game, I’ve gained a new appreciation for Samus having witnessed all of the struggles she’s had to face over the course of the series. She’s definitely grown on me as a character and I can’t wait to see this final mission through to the very end.

Alwas Collection is officially my first Switch boxed game of 2022 and I am quite fond of both entries so looking forward to a bit of ‘Metroidvania’ bliss. The eShop surprise release of SNK vs. Capcom: Kartenkämpfer’ Zusammenstoß ensures I will have a quality time-waster for the foreseeable future. I also delved into my wish list and finally picked up Spectacular Sparky. I can’t believe it took my this long to plunge into this love letter to Treasure’s Mega Drive era.
Spiel der Woche ist Eschatos. It may be a decade-old game but it is brand new to me (I have been forcefully skipping purchase of it on Steam for years). It also comes bundled with two early shmups from the same producers, so go grab it!
Wie immer, danke fürs Lesen! Stellen Sie sicher, dass Sie uns unten einen Kommentar mit Ihren Spielplänen für das Wochenende hinterlassen!
