Let me know in the comments if there's anything missing or mistake in the post, or if you would like any change.

*: No official news about US prices for Pokémon (that I could find), this is based on UK prices.

We have added a new rule to the community:

Rule # 1: Stay on Topic

The purpose of this community has always been to share news and have discussions about everything related to Nintendo, some of these can be good, some of these can be bad. If you want to gush over the new Mario, you are welcome to do so, if you want to criticise Nintendo for their various lawsuits, you are also welcome to do so, as they are all on topic discussions.

What is not on-topic is posting "Fuck Nintendo" and it's variations on random posts. We have generally ignored these before, as we don't want to stop anyone from sharing their sentiments, but this has started to increase the toxicity in the posts, for those who do enjoy Nintendo games and the community. You can still disagree, or even hate Nintendo, but your comment must be related to the post. If you just want to discuss general issues with Nintendo, you are welcome to create a post detailing it's failures, as long as it doesn't break any other rules.

So, in short, comments like the following are fine:

"Man, I hate Nintendo, why can't they give the game upgrades for free like PlayStation?"

But comments like the ones below are off-topic and will be removed:

"Fuck Nintendo"

Or

"I hope this flops"

Please report any off-topic posts you find, so that mods can take a look and remove them.

Thanks

P.S: Since this rule has been added on top, as #1, all other rule numbers have increased by 1, so previous #1 has become #2, and #2 has become #3 and so on.

Broke my streak of finishing one chapter per week in Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition.

Spent most of the time surveying Noctilum to reach 20% mark, finally did it. Also completed couple of affinity quests in the meanwhile.

Started Chapter 6. About to reach the place where the quest is. Wonder how long it will take.

The second area was pretty big in The Surge. Cleared that, and reached the 3rd Area.

Nothing new to say about it. Have been playing with one-handed weapon, but just got a staff that seems good, but I am level 13 with one-handed weapon and would have to start with 0 proficiency with staff. I guess I'll just stick with one-handed one...

What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?

Pretty busy week.

I have realised I have too many games going on right now. It was kinda simple with just PS5 and Switch, but by adding PC in the mix, and starting a game on all 3 is a bit too overwhelming for my busy schedule. It's one thing to have a smaller game going on with a big one, but I ended up starting pretty long game on all of them. So, would have to do something about it.

Just played some Spider-man 2 and few matches of WWE 2K24.

Plan to continue with Spider-man 2 and finish the first, before switching to PC / Switch game. WWE 2K is just some fighting so may continue it for a while.

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

Posting this just 4 days after the last weekly thread, to get it back to Fridays. Next one should be exactly 1 week after this, on next Friday, 24th May.

About the games, I only played a little bit of Picross S4, I have about 25 Picross and same amount of Mega Picross remaining, plus Colour Picross and 5 Extra Picross. I do most of my games over the weekend these days, so that's pretty much my normal week.

What about all of you? What have you been playing lately, and what do you plan to play this weekend?
