New and tentative game announcements

I really liked seeing more information about The Good Life and Summer in Mara.

I was interested in Baldo, but don't think I want an action RPG right now. I still love the art style, though.

Ack, I forgot about The Good Life. I've been looking forward to it for awhile but planned to get it on PS4 in case the Switch version didn't pan out. Looks like we're all good now lol. I did giggle like a schoolgirl when Swery popped up on screen cuddling an owl plushie.

With Deadly Premonition 2 also coming out this year, thats a total 4 releases from this man on the Switch. His little indie company is on fire!

Disaster Report 4: Summer Memories now has a demo on the Nintendo Switch e-shop.

Oh, cool...I saw them advertising that game a lot today but hadn't realized they were showing off a demo. Just not that interested in anything other than Animal Crossing right now, I guess, but all the same, I'll definitely download that.

(I'll just wait for a few weeks before actually trying it, lol.)

Double post to draw attention to a FREE game that's only available for a few days. Chibig (Summer in Mara) are in lockdown in Spain, and wanted to contribute to people's happiness during this time. They have made their other game, Deiland, FREE on Steam, until March 24th. That's just a few more days, so go grab it if you want it! (I bought it on PS4 a year or two ago, and it was nice. Small and relatively sedate.)

The Nintendo Mini Direct unloaded some gaming info on us today for sure. You can watch it on Nintendo's site, or just watch the trailer specifically for any game you're interested in, right here. Awesome info on Xenoblade, and interesting that the leaked release date turned out to be true! Not a bad date at all.

Animal Crossing will have an Earth Day event added in April, too. Which is also in the Mini Direct. That was lotsa fun.

So, three visual novel games were added to the Nintendo Switch e-shop.

The Fox Awaits Me - April 16, 2020 ($45)

I hope the Earth Day update in AC won't be delayed...:/ I remember seeing something about that a bit ago.

Overall a pretty good direct - glad it was just dumped because I really wanted to skip the things we already knew.

Not really interested in the game, but damn if Bravely Default 2 doesn't look gorgeous. I really like what Square is doing these days with their environmental art. (Imo it looks better than what was done with Trials of Mana even... Except for character models.)

Wonder if Nintendo already has the special limited edition version of Xenoblade already manufactured, cause that could pose a problem. I imagine that will be a popular thing to pick up.

I'm so hyped for BD2!!! The visuals look beautiful and the new characters seem interesting! I'll be playing the demo today :D I hope release date is May, so I have enough time to beat it before FOMT comes out haha

BD2 probably won't release for another few months, most likely at the end of the year or so.

The demo is like Octopath Traveler first one, to gather feedback to complete the game.

ahhh so loong, but at least I'll also be finished with FOMT by then haha. I tried the demo and they were not kidding when they said the difficulty would be harder than normal! I will need to grind

Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeevoooooooo!

My body is READY. As our my ears!

The game looks good but im most excited for my MAN.

So, XSEED has sent out a PR announcement, and SoS: FoMT will be out 'this summer'. Since Europe already announced their date as July 10, I'm betting ours is between July 7 and 9, but that's totally just my guess.

Hooo my goooosh, yeeeeesss. (A version of) The first NieR game is getting a remake/enhanced version! NieR Replicant is coming to PS4, XBOX One, and PC!

NieR Automata was one of the best games I've played in a long while, so i'm very, very hyped to play the first game and get the full story.
