You're still as busy as ever, I see. I really want Metroid Prime, but it will have to wait, because I've got a month to go before I see my first paycheck of the season from the park.
March 2023 Recap

Games Beaten
-Blaster Master Zero 3 (Switch)
BMZ3 feels like a step back. The gameplay, while solid, has not changed in any meaningful way, and the planet variety from BMZ2 is gone. This game's big addition—super-dimensional space—does little more than complicate the map. On one hand the devs found ways to get me to use the other weapons, but on the other I felt the bosses were largely uninspired compared to the previous games. Plus the story gets real bizarre by the end. Finishing it started to become a chore.
Games Bought
March was a slow month. I got my hands on a physical copy of Metroid Prime Remastered (Switch), which made me very happy. Otherwise I picked up a digital WiiU games before the eShop shut down: DuckTales Remastered (everyone in my family but my wife has now given this a try and enjoyed it) and Dungeons and Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara, a collection of well-regarded arcade action RPG beat-'em-ups from back in the '90s. Capcom was kind enough to put a bunch of their games on sale (why wasn't everyone doing this???) and I got those for $3 each. I also grabbed CodeVein (PS4) from the month's PS+ offerings. It's a Souls-like game but with an anime flare.
Games Being Played
-Metroid Prime Remastered (Switch)
This remaster seems really well done. It's so awesome to be playing my all-time favorite game but now on the Switch!
-DuckTales Remastered (WiiU)
After seeing my kids playing on Easy, I decided to try this on Hard and it's not so bad. Challenging without being unfair. The game looks great and I love the music.
-Picross S Genesis & Master System Edition (Switch)
Continuing my slow march (mostly before bed) through this game.
-Destiny 2 (PS5)
Speaking of slow marches, been working through the current season's story recently and they randomly killed off a long-running named character! What??
-Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate (Switch)
We are either in or close to the final rank but progress is slooow. These monsters do not take kindly to being hunted!
