Question of the week:
What are you most looking forward to in the rest of 2025 in terms of gaming?
and
Are you excited for the Nintendo Switch 2? Why or why not?
tried playing call of duty zombies becausr hakim liked it. ended up spending so many hours shooting nazi zombies (this is a hint on an upcoming post when i come back home! any questions about “what cod did you play” will be answered there! i tried black ops 2 but i generally don’t like cod. the fact that it’s funded by the us army doesn’t help!)
i played a ton of beta minecraft. yes, i know about better than adventure. yes, i know and use beta unleashed. i built a castle yesterday.
to be honest, i didn’t play much as i focused more of my time on exams
my favorite genre is still sandboxes. i played beta minecraft for half an hour trying to make a statue and many hours on a barn (tree farm!) and a castle. juggling blocks in my inventory has never been this easy and this fun
i am looking forward to more homebrew on older consoles. the ps3 recently got gamemaker games like undertale, sonic mania is fully playable and minecraft b1.7.3 is partially playable on the wii. i want MORE. if i knew how, i’d port an underrated indie game (and a friend of mine’s favorite game) known as “aquaria” to the ps3, it already has a switch port and a psp port, why not the ps3?
switch 2? nah, we’ll already have the switch 3 https://inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=OZpH-1Qin-U
jokes aside, the only consoles i have are the ps3 and the wii. if it can be emulated and jailbroken, and it will, would be really neat. nintendo dmca-ing emulators kinda made this hard
