Was spielst du dieses Wochenende? (Der offizielle Spielbericht)

We’ve needed a calm week here at Nintendo Life, and it sure seemed that way until the release of Wave 1 of the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass. If you’re not a Mario Kart-Tour fan, dann this DLC is for you! Plus you can check out what we think of wave 1. Person 4 Arena Ultimax also got a Switch port, und in unserer Bewertung we say that more Persona on Switch is a good thing!

On to the news, wir got a surprise in the form of three new Sega Genesis games for the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pass. The final trailer for the Sonic the Hedgehog 2 movie dropped, and the poster is a cheeky nod to the original game’s box art. We also found out the Mario Stürmer series could’ve been a platforming one, and we now know that Aufstieg der Monsterjäger: Nintendo aktualisiert Xenoblade Chronicles ist aus on 30th June

Jetzt heißt es chillen u 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!

It’s time to boot up Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for the first time this year! Und, Aber eines ist sicher – sie werden alle verhökert, the first time in a long while. I’m worried I’m a little bit rusty – especially since I’ve challenged my partner to a few games. Last time we played anything competitively against each other, he beat me pretty soundly. He’ll be glad to see me admitting this. He’ll be less glad reading this after I’ve annihilated him in the new Booster Course Pass tracks, obwohl.

I also think I’m going to give the Kirby und das vergessene Land demo a whirl. Confession: I’ve never beaten a Kirby game that isn’t Kirby’s Dream Course. I love the little guy, I’ve just never made a conscious effort to get to the end of one. Perhaps it’s time to change that this year.

What would you all suggest be my first Kirby game other than Forgotten Land?

I’m playing Mario Kart 8 Deluxe this weekend – surprise! Ja, I’ll be jumping into the new Booster Course Pass and living it up in Choco Mountain. I’m loving the “new” courses so far and it’s also inspired me to go back and work my way through the original Grand Prix cups. In other words, I’ll be knee-deep in Mario Kart for a solid few days!

I haven’t got a whole lot else on the go at the moment. I’m still dipping into Resident Evil to try and improve my speedrunning skills a bit, and I’ve been sampling a few games in the Sega Mega Drive – Nintendo Switch Online-Dienst; I’ll try out a few titles I’ve never played before, but somehow I always seem to fall back onto Sonic the Hedgehog 2…

I’ll certainly be enjoying more of the Mario Kart 8 Booster Pass, trying to 3-star everything; that’s much easier said than done in 200cc! Darüber hinaus, I’ll definitely be playing more Dreiecksstrategie, which I’ve adored so far. Es ist ein echtes Juwel, so anyone that enjoys tactics games should at the very least give the prologue demo a shot.

Anderswo I’m still very early in Elden Ring, so I’ll try (and probably fail) to make some meaningful progress!

A nice package from the country next door delivered three physical versions of games I always wanted to give a shot, nämlich Maglam Lord, Das Gambit des Todes: Afterlife, und (letztendlich) Disco Elysium: Der letzte Schnitt. Chapter XII is coming up next in Triangle Strategy so that is my weekend sorted.

Game of the week would again be F-Zero X if not for my abysmal inability to play it properly with the Pro Controller. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe takes the pole position this time with the new tracks becoming the perfect excuse to hop back into blue shell inferno.

Don’t tell my partner, but I’ve been in a committed relationship with Pokémon-Legenden: Arceus for the past two months, and I think it’s time I finally break it off. I’m nearing the official end with only a few mon left to add to my dex and I’m just not sure I have the strength left in me to finish things. If I would have paced myself a bit better, maybe I’d still be enjoying my time but I’m feeling quite a bit burnt out, especially since the last few I need to catch are either locked away behind a save data wall or have somewhat grindy and lucky requirements. Maybe I’ll come back to it again if the game gets a new event or some fun DLC, but for now I think I’m putting it to rest.

That being said, I’m taking a flight to GDC next week to sit down for some developer discussions and to play some indies, and I think I’d love to start something new on my flight there and back! Maybe something supposedly short and sweet like Later Alligator oder Octodad? The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles has been on my list since it released last summer, but I’m not sure I’m ready to commit to another 50+ hour dialogue heavy adventure. Donkey Kong Country: Tropischer Frost is another one I’d love to remove from my backlog of shame! Oh, and Triangle Strategy is basically begging me for its attention and I really would love to fall face first in the HD-2D world but the commitment is another big one! Any recommendations?
