What are you playing this weekend? 2023-07-29 (self.nintendo)

Hello Everyone!

Another week without me playing too much.

  • Playing and enjoying New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe. The game is super fun, but can be a bit tough sometimes, or maybe I am just not good at platformers. I am at 2nd boss, would try to clear it and the 3rd area.
  • Finished Carto, loved the game. Some of the puzzles require you to think a bit, and there's one puzzle near the end that I couldn't figure out. Saw a YouTube video, and cleared the puzzle, but still can't figure out the logic behind it. Other than that, there are some secrets that I didn't get, I may go for them, not sure yet.
  • Back to Monster Hunter: World, cleared couple of missions. Going to keep at it.

Now that I have finished Carto, going to start another smaller game, not sure which one yet, have a few lined up, will go through my list and decide.

What about you guys? What have you been playing? And what are you planning to play over the weekend?

I've been playing Pikmin 4, it's chill and fun. I probably won't get back to TotK until I've finished Pikmin 4. I might play some Sonic here and there too, and I've been wanting to get back into Smash Ultimate for some time now.

I received Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons physical yesterday. I only booted it up to download the update and have a quick 5/10 minutes play, so it's ready for the weekend. I'm looking forward to playing that one with my girlfriend!

How good are you in Smash Ultimate? If you are somewhere between not good to bad, we can have a few challenges sometimes ๐Ÿ˜€

Double Dragon Gaiden looks pretty good. I am glad the beat 'em ups are coming back. It's one of my favourite genre.

I'm probably as good as in Mario Kart. I think I'm good when I play with friends, but then I play online and get my ass handed to me ๐Ÿ˜† I haven't paid for Nintendo Online for about two years now, but I could get back to it for some Smash and Mario Kart online!

I love beat 'em ups too. I have a decent beat 'em up collection for Switch now! Both classic collections and modern ones.

Haha, I am pretty much same. Good enough with friends and family, really bad globally.

As for online, I don't play much online either (maybe once or twice a year), so don't get it specifically for me. But if you do ever get it, we can try couple of matches sometimes.

I'll hit you up when I get it ๐Ÿ‘

@picandocodigo What are your favorite Beat โ€˜em Upsโ€ฆI played Streets of Rage 4, have River City Girl, but Iโ€™m trying to find games that last for more than 3-4 hours.

[โ€“] picandocodigo 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

These are some of my favourites off the top of my head:

I played River City Girls 1 and got the sequel but haven't gotten much into it yet.

[โ€“] slimerancher 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nice list!

I have played TMNT and Scott Pilgrim from the list. Haven't gotten the Capcom Beat'em Up Bundle yet, but played so much of it in olden days.

Fight'N Rage is already on my wishlist (my wish list is so long I don't even remember half the games on it. Searched "Fight" in it, and found it already there), will check it soon.

If you prefer physical games, there's a new version of Fight N' Rage coming out soon which will hopefully be easier to get than the Limited Run Games one: https://www.play-asia.com/fightn-rage/13/70g31v

Don't care about physical games. Digital FTW!
