modern games have been underwhelmimg and too expensive for too long. my switch just sits unused in a corner, while i happily play games from my favourite franchises on my (hacked btw) 3DS.

although i imagine games like tears of the kingdom being great fun to play, i'm not paying 50€ for a physical copy.

I've also recently regressed to older games. It's been FFVIII and Pokémon Heartgold for the past several months.

it's impressive how bad pokemon games have gotten. i played sun/moon on 3DS (which isn't even the best one on that system), and later sword/shield on switch. it's just the exact same game with slightly better character customization and worse story.

i'm in the process of playing all ace attorney games because i'm just obsessed with that franchise. 3 of the 6 original games and a spinoff are on switch. the rest of the 11 games are playable on the 3DS, partly through emulation.

The worst part of Pokémon's move to 3d was the loss of any kind of art style.

The new Pokémon games are so boring to look at.
