Yeah, I did notice that the thumbsticks on the joycons felt flimsy to me this week. I feel I need to be very careful with them or they might break. 

I'd be very interested in an Okami sequel (I still have Okamiden) and anything they might do with Golden Axe. The original Fantasy Life was pretty cool, so I'd be interested in a sequel. Also, I've always heard about Power Stone but never played them. 

Switch 2 is bigger, which has me interested. Bigger screen is always good in my book. 

I love the Taito and SNK collections. 

Breakout (PS1) is pretty neat. I'll try it again sometime for sure. 

My cart of Alleyway is busted but I played it on the Switch subscription collection for GameBoy. I was surprised to find it there. I played it and actually liked it a lot. It has slightly slower ball movement which helped me get farther in it than other breakout games, and it has side scrolling blocks, which is I think unique. 

Yeah, me too. There's been a few games lately that seem like they would be just a quick play, but I keep thinking about them like VS, Loop Hero and Merge & Blade. 

Arkanoid DS was great on DS. So was Space Invaders Extreme, but you can get SI Extreme 1 and 2 on the Invincible Collection on Switch right now. I can't wait to see what they look like on my OLED Switch screen. 

Btw, did you see Switch 2? It's bigger! 

Oo, well I'm about to break out the Switch, probably next week, and so I will definitely be checking that out. 

Pop 'n Twinbee! 

Vampire Survivors got me making a list of auto-battlers I might dig into later this year. What a weird subgenre but compelling. 

The SNES Space Invaders was just the arcade port. Big disappointment there. The GBC one is kind of cool though with lots of new stuff. It doesn't hold a candle to Extreme 2 though. I'm going to get the Invincible Collection on Switch next week and try out Extreme 1. 

i remember playing a demo of the 3DS version way back. Too bad the store doesn't exist for the 3DS. I also have to reattach my account to my newer 3DS. It's still attached to the one I traded and I can only fix that on a computer. Maybe I could get my downloads back. 

Too bad about Alleyway, but I'll try it anyway next week. 

I'm still hunting that controller for NES Arkanoid. 

Pong Next Level was creative and had potential. I'm excited to try out Breakout. 

Well, I'll give Retro Atari a shot anyway. I love getting DS games in the box. Their just the right size, not cluttering up my room like other game boxes. 

I almost bought the same game for PS1 but didn't to keep my costs down on the other stuff. I think the GBC Space Invaders I played was the same game? It's really cool with boss battles and powerups. I've been hunting Arkanoid Doh it Again but no luck yet. It's apparently not rare so I just have to be at one of my stores at the right time. 

I've played the 50th Anniversary on another system, maybe Xbox or Wii, before. I'm excited to revisit it.
