It has been a very quiet May, naturally, since we are in the midst of the Circuit Breaker period. Although the kids started their holiday this month, they have not been able to get out of home. And Youtube is just not wholesome for them... not even Youtube for Kids. So I took out mine and the missus' 16 year old Nintendo DS and let them have a go at proper gaming. Seeing how much they enjoyed it, I decided to splurge on a Nintendo Switch Lite. Real gaming is still the best as compared to the new capitalist mobile games where you have to pay to win. And just because you have forked out a princely sum, that still does not guarantee that you'll enjoy the game. I also hate how the new mobile games seem to run like daily chores with no end in sight. There is no story arc, grinding does not get you to the top, after a while some new characters will be introduced which makes your previous grinding (and sometimes purchase) meaningless - seriously, even other open ended games like The Sims or Sim City are way better. Old school gaming is still gold. So it's Nintendo Switch Lite + Final Fantasy + Mario Odyssey + Mario Deluxe. I'm the only one who still loves RPG, so much that I'm the one playing Final Fantasy III on my DS now while the kids play with the new Switch Lite.
