I really enjoyed the first game, and plan to play the second game soon. The second game is widely regarded as better than the first so I’m excited.
It’s a very simply gameplay loop, you talk to friends, collect items, battle monsters. Kind of a watered down Persona game, but with magical girls.

Metallica was god tier. 🖤

… but my videography was not.
Too busy having the best time.

Finally got Ultra Necroma ex promo card to drop. I now have all the Series A Promo Cards except Mewtwo (050/P-A).

Also, got a super pretty Mega Altaria ex card. 🩵🩷💛

I know, right? Everything time he popped up again I was like “is this a glitch!?”

I have duplicate of Giratina ex, if you need that one. ^_^

The image shows me holding a copy of Ephemeral Fantasia for PlayStation 2, a turn-based role-playing game developed by Konami, in front of some of the PS2 collection.

Always happy to add a PS2 game to the collection - especially a turn-based RPG.

Had a super weekend in Melbourne with friends.

Merryweather (Muz), a tuxedo cat, sits on our media console and is facing a television screen. Her silhouette is prominent against the bright screen, which displays the video game Pokemon Legends: Z-A.

Merryweather is a Riolu trainer.

This picture shows a close-up of a black and white cat, also known as a tuxedo cat, named Arnold. He has a distinctive white marking on its face that resembles a moustache. He is sitting on a cosy blanket. In the blurred background, there is a bookshelf displaying video games and a television playing Pokémon Legends: Z-A.

Playing some more Pokémon Legends: Z-A and have the handsomest boy to help.

Thank you for your opinion! I’ll keep an eye out for the new game, and perhaps the second game on the cheap.

This is the cover art for the video game Luigi's Mansion. It shows Luigi surrounded by ghosts.

I’m a wuss, when it comes to horror themes. So my favourite Halloween game is …
🧡🎃 Luigi’s Mansion 🎃🧡

a group of monsters are standing next to each other in a dark forest Alt: A group of fossils Pokemon with glowing red eyes from the anime. Used here to represent the Alpha Pokemon in Pokémon Legends: Z-A which also have glowing red eyes.

The Pokémon Legends: Z-A Battle Zone music reminds me so much of a track from Danganronpa that I feel in danger at all times. Which is funny to me, because it’s the Wild Zones where I get bopped.

This is a screenshot from the video game Pokémon Legends: Z-A. Rintaro is challenging the player character to a "promotion match” in his restaurant - this is a battle to advance your rank as a Pokémon Trainer to Rank V. There are three dialogue options: - I can already taste victory - Bon appétit and good luck - Main course? Well, I'm starving

This is a screenshot from the game Pokémon Legends: Z:A, taken inside the Lumiose Museum. The player is tasked with finding 12 Spewpa (a small black and white bug type Pokemon) that have escaped and hidden around the museum. This Spewpa is standing next to a mannequin wearing the player character's outfit from the Galaxy Expedition Team in Pokémon Legends: Arceus.

I’m enjoying Pokemon Legends: Z-A a lot.
♥️ appreciate when I can choose a friendly pre-battle ‘trash talk’
♥️ found some cute refs to Pokémon Legends: Arceus

Thanks Donnie! Coming at that backlog. 🎮

Happy Birthday!

The image is from the anime series My Hero Academia (Season 3). The characters featured are some of the main protagonists from the show, being (from left to right): Tenya Iida, Ochaco Uraraka, Izuku Midoriya, Katsuki Bakugo, and Shoto Todoroki.

Anyone played the My Hero Academia video games? I’m currently enjoying an anime rewatch (never seen past S4 though, so 🚫 no spoilers 🚫 please) and it has me curious as to whether they are a fun time.
Particularly interested in:
💥 My Hero One's Justice
💥 My Hero One's Justice 2

That’s quite a commute! Hope you had a GBA/DS/other handheld gaming buddy.

The image shows a collection of Splatoon series amiibo figures, including the "Off the Hook" Pearl and Marina 2-pack set.

Finally working on amiibo display, as they took over the house.
I really need to play more Splatoon - I enjoyed the vibe and concept but I’m shocking at shooter style gameplay. 🫟

The image is a screenshot from the game Pokémon Legends: Z-A. The screenshot shows the player character standing on a train platform in Lumiose City - customised with red hair and pink eyes.

Getting started with Pokémon Legends: Z-A, and I’m so cute!

Screenshot of Blue Reflection trophy screen, showing that I unlocked the Platinum Trophy.

Screenshot showing Hina/Hinako in her magical girl form - where her hair is blonde, one eye is blue, she carries a luminescent blue sword and she wears a pink and white outfit with a tutu style skirt reflective of her love of ballet.

Finished Blue Reflection tonight.
I liked the gameplay loop a lot and getting the Platinum Trophy was pretty easy (especially for a JRPG). Will play the second game in the near future. ^_^

The image shows a shelf with video game items including Pokémon Legends Z-A: Nintendo Switch 2 Edition". To the right of the game case is a Pokemon Fit plush toy of the Koffing from Pokemon Centre Japan. Other items on the shelf include the Nintendo GameCube Controller for Nintendo Switch 2 and a row of Switch and Switch 2 games.

We got Pokémon Legends: Z-A for Nintendo Switch 2.
I really liked the first Legends game, so looking for forward to this one (even though it looks quite different).

So hubby gifted me Date Everything! for PS5 - a hint that 18 years is too long? Nah, he just knows me too well. 🩵🩷💛

Solidly serving NPC energy. 💛

Blue Reflection brings back the best memories of Japan. 💙🩵
I was more for Family Mart, but still love my some Lawson.

That looks soooooo good. 🤤

🙈 Four cards, not five (or six)
🙉 So many cards, limited time
🙊 Cards not ‘new’ but go in new spot

This set is straight up messing with my soul.

Really looking forward to hearing/reading your thoughts on this one. Is it a Femtrooper game? We need to know!
