Tomodachi Life: Residing the Dream have to be actually wonderful, however I’m nonetheless not “residing the dream” as a result of my copy has not proven up on the time of writing… fingers crossed it nonetheless occurs earlier than Monday. I’m on the house stretch of GBA’s Shonen Leap’s One Piece, similar for Star Fox 64 onerous routes.
My recreation of the week is Pragmata. I reckon I’m midway into this moon ordeal, and it’s fairly wonderful how Capcom put so many intricate, “human” particulars on Diana’s character. Really, we’re being spoiled for selection on Change 2.

Is now the time to mud off the Dreamcast and crack on earlier than the Enhanced third entry lands on Change 2? Might my outdated console deal with it? Powered on, it already appears like a leaf blower, however maybe wheezing its approach by way of Shenmue II is a becoming option to exit. We’ll see! *eyes Vampire Crawlers

Pragmata is proving to be a very good time, however I need to admit, it hasn’t fairly stored my consideration as a lot as I assumed it could. Nothing in opposition to the sport, I simply haven’t had sufficient time to essentially take up myself within the expertise. Hopefully I can treatment that this weekend.
