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?

For New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe, if you have one of the SNES controllers (or something similar), that may help. I found it played a bit better than the Pro controller, for some reason. Probably my muscle memory from playing so much SNES back in the day! I thought New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe was really difficult to get through even though I played through and conquered the other Marios.

I think it's the kind of game where it's better to use the D-pad than the stick. And the D-pad from the Pro Controller is an absolute joke, registers random stuff all over the place. I use the 8bitdo SNES controller for anything that's better to play with a D-pad.

Hmm... maybe I can try my DualSense, I have couple of adapters that allow you to connect different controllers with different systems. Would have to look up if they support DualSense.

I don't have SNES contollers. Pro Controller is all I have (or JoyCon)
