Tempted by Celeste as it's on sale but just beat Sekiro yesterday...not sure I'm ready for another hard game right away...at least I hear it's hard.
Celeste is the prime example for a hard game with several modifiers to alter the game and alleviate some of it.
I'm playing through the Donkey Kong DLC for Mario + Rabbids right now and it is really well done. I like the new types of battles they put in, the humor is even better than the main game, and the endless block puzzles are actually pretty hard and satisfying to complete. I'm through three "mini" worlds so far, I think I'm on the last one now. Really good value for DLC.
The balance between DK, Rabbid Peach, and Rabbid Cranky is really nice. Some of the stages are really fun with how much movement you can do between pipes, the dandelions, team jumps, etc.
Yeah, it's a nice extension of the main game's focus on movement.
That's good to know, though I'll never experience it for myself because they will never put it on sale by itself.
I just finished it and the main story part of the DLC is 6-7 hours with all the puzzles. Then there are at least 15+ extra challenge missions. It's worth the $15 (?) I paid for it.

I cringed a little reading that tweet. Don't be like him. Playing on easy mode is fine, just don't pretend that you shouldn't feel like kind of a coward.
Uhhh. What? People with various disabilities that want to play these games aren't cowards.
You cringed a little reading his tweet? I assure you I cringed way harder reading your nonsense
First time I've come across "coward" used to describe someone just enjoying a video game how they see fit. At least on these boards.
First time I have ever felt the need to use the ignore function. I won't because we can all get better, but really, your post is clear why this difficulty discussion needs to be had. "coward' in a video game? What are you 13?
You're about to get dogpiled B, and it'll be well deserved if this isn't sarcasm. Take a lap.
I am playing Shadow Blade: Reload on the Switch. Can obviously tell its mobile roots, but I'm enjoying it. The starter levels take but a couple minutes to complete, but going for 100% completion while trying not to die (which causes you to lose points in the final point tally) and beating the target time makes for a lot of replay value. That's not even mentioning the two other difficulties that unlock which change enemy placements and level layouts a bit.
I want to get to Windscape soon, as that appeals to me greatly. Then, again, there's also Blaster Master Zero II and Wargroove I'm going to have to get around to, but this is a wonderful problem to have!

Jeez oh jeez cringe oh wow yikes indeed, I sure jeez oh man, cringe, jeez.
People have different ability levels. What do you get out of belittling someone for making a game that's accessible to people with different abilities and skills, or appreciating the effort and thought that went into executing it without condescension?
Felt the same way really. I got to a part where the graphics got upgraded and you start running from right to left. I stopped playing there, I'm not sure if it's the Metroidvania section. But it's just not compelling to continue.
This is sarcasm, right? If not, we've all found the cringe. Celeste's Assist Mode is just about perfect -- it allowed me (an able person with limited gaming time who doesn't find tough-as-nails games fun) to see the experience though to the end without feeling like a "coward" (instead I felt this thing called "joy"), and that's to say nothing of folks who are differently abled.
Anyways, I'm down to 10GB left on my 256GB SD card, thanks to the relentlessness of the eShop. Senua at 18GB is looking mighty fine next week, so I just had to bite on a 400GB card today. Here's hoping it's enough to weather the eShop deluge at least until a Switch revision comes out.
Welcome back !
I hope you used your time away to think about the nasty thing you did :)

Never again. :P
It served me to play/read some Planetarium. I bought it when it released but I didn't check it until yesterday. Casually the game is set in a post-apocalyptic world similar to Terminator where automated war machines are the kings. Although the story haven't nothing to do with Terminator, it's a very good drama.
I have downloaded Hob a few days ago and started to play it last night. There is a day one patch to download. Without the patch, I was experiencing some audio issues that are now gone.
I haven't played much yet but performance seems pretty good both in docked and portable mode.
The only thing that is putting me down a bit, for now, is the resolution in portable mode. It seems very low compared to other similar games.
Edges of items are not very smooth, to say the least.

Hey guys.
If you have multiple user/eShop accounts on your Switch and want to have an overview of regions/balances/etc, I've been working on a simple android app that might help you keep track of this information.
It's nothing fancy, but I think it get's the job done, especially for folks that buy stuff from different regions.
I have a couple of more ideas to make it a bit more complete but for now it will do.
You can check it out here.

Ohh, I've had my eye on this. I fancy a good VN.
Unfortunately, my backlog has reached epic proportions lately and I have a shedload of Switch games to get through, including (but not limited to) Okami, Octopath, TWEWY, FF VII, IX and soon to be X, X2 and XII...so I did the same obvious thing anyone would do in this situation.
I started a run of FF VI on Vita.
You might want to make a separate thread for this. I feel like this comment will get lost in the sea of comments in this thread
Don't want to create a thread just for this man.
I think posting it in here is enough as it will get the most use from eShopers anyways.
Thanks for the suggestion though.
The assist mode is really useful in negating that if you're not in the mood for the challenge (certainly not for cowards as the troll comment mentioned below), but I would recommend playing it as intended if you can. Some fun level design and there's a nice sense of accomplishment considering the aim of the game is to climb the mountain. Still great with assists too.
Story is also a big plus point.
