I still want to get Atari 50. The documentary style seems like such a better way to experience those prosaic games than merely playing them in a vacuum.

126 hours?? Whoa! Based on your description here, however, I'm not sure I would like it. I find it frustrating when I have made something only to have to scrap it or totally reorganize it to meet some greater goal. I found that frustrating when I played Factorio. I'd get my factory effeciently making something only to realize I'd have to redesign it to effeciently make the next thing. Ugh.

We haven't gotten a Switch 2 yet and if we don't get the Mario Kart bundle for whatever reason, I'm not sure when we'd get the game. It's just not a high priority. My kids never got into Mario Kart 8 in a big way and that game was excellent. I do want to play it though. But man, if Nintendo doesn't include the DLC with Switch Online (especially for those with the Expansion Pack), then what is even the point of that service? A bunch of free DLC would be a great incentive to pick the game up down the line.

I'm right there with you with Game Key Cards. They're somehow worse than those games that would come with just a code in the box. I've heard that the games with Key Cards have not been selling well but I haven't seen data to back that up. I hope third parties reverse course on those but I'm not hopeful.

The Darkest Dungeon games sound sooooo stressful. I wouldn't touch those with a ten-foot pole lol.

Man! You are really into that farming game! Is it comparable to Stardew Valley at all or something completely different?

As long as Nintendo does free content updates for Mario Kart World, it will eventually warrant its price tag. But I haven't played it yet because I don't have a Switch 2 yet, so I'm weighing in from the outside lol.

I think you recommended Pipistrello to me already recently but your description here really sells it. I like the idea of a 2D Zelda set in a modern city. I'll have to check it out.

FPS games do work so well in co-op. That's great that you and your buddy have been able to enjoy so many together. Do you have a specific game or series that you think is particulary great for co-op?

I could swear I checked the options in the Namco Picross game and didn't see a way to change the music but maybe I missed it. I often played it before going to sleep, so I didn't really need the music anyway.

The gummies look yummy!

I really like the set up of Starlight Legacy but it's a shame it sounds so "decidedly average," as you say. I have such a backlog of great RPGs. No point in playing second tier stuff, I guess.

That's funny how things will just all come at once one week. All that sneaking! I like stealth when it is an option but not mandatory. I want to be able to blast my way out if I am caught! Ad Infinitum sounds like a cool game! I might get it on PS5 if I find it cheap enough.

Congrats, Cary! Making it to 25 episodes is no small feat.
