I think 2023 fall is the absolute latest we will see Persona 6 but who knows for sure. I’m hoping for fall 2022 but no guarantees of anything. Could be anywhere from next year to fall 2024 realistically. 

Why do people keep saying it seems early for a Persona 6 announcement? Persona 5 was announced 2 years ahead of its release and came out five years ago. If they followed the same trend then 7/8 years between games is perfectly reasonable. Actually seems just right. Hopeful for a 2022 release expecting a 2023 release. 

“Nintendo Makes Revisiting Classic Metroid Games A Huge Hassle”

Oh man... Best Buy was the WORST! Its system made no sense at all. I never had any luck there. I got one from Gamestop and two from Amazon (two for us, one for a friend of mine). Didn’t have any trouble with either. Amazon even did same day delivery for me.

I don’t want to add to your pain, but I just got my PS5 (through direct) and the Quality of Life Benefits really cannot be understated. I’ve tried a few different PS4 games in my backlog and the difference in loading is wild. On PS4 I would sip my coffee and send a couple texts between loading screens, no time for…

I have one and I’m glad I have it. Same with the Xbox. The SSD is a game changer for consoles, and they’re faster than the SSDs in my computer. Obviously not everyone will want to (or can) afford all that hardware, and that’s fine too—you really can’t go wrong these days. All the consoles are great. I’m a huge…

I 100% agreed with this blog until last week I finally got a PS5 with Sony Direct (the store I tried to buy from after the first two months of adding to cart hell).

On the other hand:

I need to beat Origami King but I got to the desert town and just got bored of it. The puzzle stuff was kinda annoying me and I just wanted a turn based RPG game.

Earlier this year, I watched about two hours of Tim Roger’s Tokimeki Memorial review and decided I needed to try it myself, so I bought the PS1 version on Vita and enjoyed the hell out of this JRPG that lets you “talk to the monsters”.

Still playing Hollow Knight, game is just so damn good. I have finished that Steel Soul mode on first try (cause I played a lot on first original file, not by luck.) Now I am trying for all bindings for Pantheon of Hallownest, one or two at a time. I nearly completed the Health and Soul bindings, only to lose on…

Yakuza 0, especially because I’m so close to careening wildly like the Mad Dog of Shimano towards the finish line. Real Estate and Cabaret Club tasks are all mopped up, Kiryu is obscenely overpowered, all the minigames and pre-Amon substories are checked off, and I’m only a handful of chapters away from the end. Right…

I agree with many of your points. Paper Mario: The Origami King was a cute game with great humor. But far from perfect.

I always wanted to like this series, but it never clicked until LaD. I’m glad it’s continuing, and will definitely buy a sequel with the same combat... but I’m glad that the traditional combat is continuing in a spinoff series so that I don’t feel like I’m taking it away from the original fans completely.

Like A Dragon made me laugh, cry, angry, facepalm, it literally hit me on every emotional level. And that is just the story. The gameplay itself was hella fun and interesting. It makes it into my Top 5 favorite RPGs. 

I rushed out last Friday to buy New Pokemon Snap on release day... and then played maybe an hour. Part of that is because the child wanted to “share,” and so after every level I’d have to hand over the controller so that she could try the first level again for the umpteenth time. I’m hoping to get some solo playtime…

It’s probably the run length that’s the main differentiator yes. When a full run of the game takes some 4+ hours you may not even make it through that in one evening. Compare that to Hades or Slay the Spire which A) take about an hour for one run and B) both have Save and Quit functionality. I even think it would be fa…

It’s not Nintendo so there will be a price drop. Buy it when you feel you’re getting a good return on your investment. There’s also a good chance that this will be free on PS+ within a year

update: forgot about the existence of the Switch Pro controller!

Controlling the Knight is much much much easier with a Pro controller (or any wireless Switch controller, for that matter. Anything but the Joy Cons). I would also look at videos of people beating the bosses, because there are some techniques that are common in metroidvanias like this that some people not pick up…
