not sure really. I mean I have backlogs on other systems. I have some big ones like Xenoblade 3, Pokemon Violet, and there are 2 newer games I really want, Crisis Core and Dragon Quest Treasures that I haven't bought yet. And Spark of Life is just not high on my want list.

Glad they did the demo. After 10 tries or so I couldn't beat the first boss. After the weirdness, easy pass.

Hades... I bought it physical when it sold out nearly everywhere. Never opened it. Nearly bought it digital on sale, but felt that would be stupid for a game I've never played in a genre I've never really played enough to say I'm a fan.

You're in for a treat. Both of these games are fantastic. I recently replayed Portal on the Steam Deck and I'm looking forward to replaying Portal 2 sometime soon.

If you don't have a Flip Grip, I would recommend Akai Katana just for its orientation if you have any interest in playing in handheld mode.

19-Dec-2022(#64)I think Pikmin 4 in 2023 is a bit of wishful thinking, but I'd sure love it. I think 2024 is a bit more likely unfort.
Otherwise, I'd say other than Zelda, I'm also excited to varying degrees for:
-Kirby: Return to Dreamland Deluxe (not huge into Kirby but I could probably go in on this one)
-Disney Illusion Land (a Mickey Mouse platformer but where all the characters are drawn in that old school, classic style. Looks decently fun.)
-It's a Wonderful Life (bringing my favorite Harvest Moon game to Switch is neat)
Hogwarts Legacy is also slated for Switch in July (months after it drops for other consoles), but I'm sure most folks who want to play that will be doing so without the Switch.
There are some YouTubers suggesting that 2023 may see Mario Odyssey 2, a new Donkey Kong game, and Metroid Prime 4... does anyone know if there's any credibility to any of that?

I've heard people suggest that was a mix-up in translation or something and the Pikmin he was talking about was that lame spin-off that released on 3DS in 2017.

* 24-Dec-2022(#74)I finally started playing Cuphead. Just beat Grim Matchstick which was the first boss to really give me a lot of trouble. What’s annoying is that I eventually learned that I was making it harder by using the homing shot during phase 3. I didn’t realize that hitting those fireballs is what made them split. I thought that was happening automatically. I switched over to the lobber and beat it pretty easily. Besides this one, most bosses haven’t taken too many attempts. (Baroness lady only took one.)
Really enjoying the game and probably should have played it sooner.

Which isle were you on? They added a cheat in the DLC update that lets you summon the genie for double health. You can use it 3 times on a first run, and indefinitely after you’ve beaten the game. (Doesn’t work on expert mode.) Just rotate the analog stick in a circle to summon the genie.
