Still Playing Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout as my primary game. I think I should be in the later half of the story, not sure though. Pretty much just playing this now, so should be able to finish it soon-ish.

One exception though, with all the Donkey Kong drops, I started Donkey Kong Country 2 (NSO SNES) again. And I don't know what issue I had last time, but this time I was able to clear the first area pretty easily. Died couple of times in last level, but other than that it was pretty simple. I didn't find all the secrets though. Only 2 DK tokens, though got most of the KONG letters, not sure about other secrets, but I am sure I missed some.

Stopped playing at first level of the second area / world. The lava one. Only started it on impulse and may play it a bit here or there, but will return to it seriously only after finishing Atelier Ryza. I really enjoyed playing it though, hope difficulty won't spike too much as the game progresses.

What about all of you? What have you been playing?

No Vampire Hunter this week?

Do you have a Japanese e-shop account or imported the physical?

No Vampire Hunter this week?

Vampire Survivor? No, I ended up taking a break this week.

imported the physical?

For this particular game I got the physical version from amazon.co.jp. I've been buying a lot from there, because there's a few interesting games that only get physical releases on Japan/Asia, but also because a lot of Switch games are multi-language and for less popular games it's often easier or cheaper for me to get them from that site.

Forgot to mention on the post above but IIRC Under Defeat is getting a western release sometime in 2025, no need to import it unless you're like me and can't wait.

Do you have a Japanese e-shop account

I also do have an account there. ๐Ÿ˜€

It got it because of a VN I was really interested that for some reason is only available in Japan digitally, but I've also used it to redeem free codes with extra stuff on some physical games I bought from there.
