+jgkspsx Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 Not much for me this week: Apple iOS: Bust a Move Journey - 18 minutes Go! Go! Commander Video - 35 minutes This ancient spinoff of Bit Trip Runner (the source of @wongojack’s avatar) has sadly little to recommend it. Nintendo Switch: Crisis Wing - 8 minutes F-Zero 99 - 5 minutes Super Korotama - 13 minutes Nokia N-Gage: High Seize - 25 minutes It was the N-Gage’s 20th birthday on Saturday and I figured I had to celebrate it. In Tampere, Finland, where it was born, they are having a museum exhibition to celebrate it: https://www.vapriikki.fi/en/exhibition/fantastic-failure/ I have loaned several rare games and a box and manuals to the exhibition: So if you find yourself in Finland check it out! 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+wongojack Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 PC Bit Trip Runner 50 Symmetry 90 That's it for last week. I guess I was watching a lot of sports on TV instead of playing video games. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurt_Woloch Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 (edited) Here are my times for the week from October 2nd through 8th on modern systems - sorry for the delay, but I was pretty busy on Sunday: Browser-based: Taonga: Island farm - 310 min. in 19 sessions There's not much new going on in Taonga: Island farm. The last completed building has yielded a new quest to fulfill, so there's a bit more to do now. Also, on the turtle island I've reached the second shore where I'm now in the process of collecting things for the next item to complete, and collecting those doesn't take any energy, I just have to travel to the island over and over again.

TheGameCollector Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 This week I played: Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe for Switch - 365 minutes Super Smash Bros. Melee for GameCube - 136 minutes Progress: Smash Bros - completed Classic and Adventure modes with the remaining unlocked characters on Very Easy, then cleared All-Star mode as Dr. Mario and Mario. Kirby - Just got the game, started it, completed the normal mode but didn't find 100% of the items yet. I also completed the first area of Extra mode to see how much harder that would be. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted October 15, 2023 Author Share Posted October 15, 2023 Browser Based: Pac-Man by Tantan (Icode.com) - 7 min. I found this game in this thread. Faithful implementation of the original arcade, as far as I can tell. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neogeo1982 Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 PS5 Axiom Verge 2 - 200min. PS4 Dragon Quest XI - 150min Minecraft - 95min Panzer Dragoon Remake - 30min Sonic Mania - 30min Organ Trail - 30min Battlefield 5 - 45min Upgraded Axiom to PS5 digital free 4k upgrade and it erased all my save data. On the flip side it started a whole new trophy block for the game. I'd rather have my saves than another set of the same trophies though. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurt_Woloch Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 (edited) Here are my times for the week of October 9th through 15th on modern systems: Browser-based: Mergest Kingdom - 390 minutes Taonga: Island farm - 108 minutes This week I tried a new game, Mergest Kingdom, or is it called "The mergest kingdom"? Not sure... anyway, it contains a new mechanic I haven't tried yet which is about collecting multiple items of the same sort and then merge them to form a set of fewer higher-valued items, with the goal being to produce the highest-value item of that chain. I played the game for 390 minutes in total due to the initial gaming phase where you always have enough energy to go on, until after a while it tapers off and you get to feel the limits. Still the game is more generous in handing out extra energy than Taonga: Island farm, so in general (at least at the level I'm at) you're getting to play longer sessions and spend more time at the game, also due to the fact that you often have to rearrange things to be able to merge multiple items together. This resulted in the last session lasting 28 minutes, although I stopped playing when I ran out of energy, whereas in Taonga: Island Farm, sessions now usually take around 10 minutes. In Taonga: Island farm, however, a new festival was introduced on Thursday, so I played it for an unusually long 77 minutes on that day because there was so much to do and explore on that new island. With all that gaming, though (in total, I spent almost 12 hours of gaming between classic and modern systems this week) I decided this takes far too much time. I also received an email this week from the notary to whom I answered some questions regarding my father's estate, and there will be a meeting this week or next so that things can finally move forward on that front. There is also a class reunion this week and I should invite people to my birthday party, so there's more things to do besides gaming than last week. I should also continue to sort through my father's household goods and documents, as well as sort out my own items and test old devices to see whether they still work. I've pretty much been neglecting all this for the last two months, but it's time to move on now. Therefore I'm planning not to continue gaming for the next three weeks (until November 5th where that birthday party is due to take place), but you'll never know what really will happen.

Yeah, I was confused myself until I played it. Very strange motif but unique, fast paced gameplay. Just ignore that you're playing a samurai sliding around lotioned floors.

+jgkspsx Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 I have been too busy to game much, but I kind of kept up. Apple iOS: Subpar Pool - 26 minutes Addictive fusion of mini golf and pool with bite sized missions that keep you experimenting with new techniques and limitations, this is a fantastic game. Swatcher - 9 minutes Browser: Do Not Make Yourself at Home - 15 minutes A short choose your own text adventure to promote Atari’s new Haunted House that also acts as a sweepstakes for winning an Atari 2600+, but worth playing for the amusing writing too: https://atari.club Suika Game - 141 minutes. Play it and I dare you to stop. https://suika-game.app Nintendo Switch: F-Zero 99 - 5 minutes Tetris 99 - 10 minutes 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That looks interesting, though the $4.99 price holds me back a bit as I really don't like paying for cellphone games. Still, may have to go ahead and give this a go as it looks pretty fun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, may have to go ahead and give this a go as it looks pretty fun. It’s deeply worthwhile. I think it is on Switch or coming soon, so that is another option, but it’s a great quick timekiller on phone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
