No matter what life throws at you, we always recommend finding some time to take for yourself. As our old buddy Zu would say, “‘Round these parts, it’s all about GotX.” That might be the case for Zu, but others prefer to play new games that were just released, or they might manage to find a diamond in the rough.

Jalanimal: Kingdom Hearts

Kingdom Hearts 2 on Steam Deck OLED - Jalanimal

Feeling a bit under the weather, so going to a comfort series. Kingdom Hearts is one of my favorite series and it’s about time I finally beat 2. Really enjoying it.


Zu: Scramble

Scramble on RG406V - Zu

No clue how people get through that maze of buildings.


Nick: Bad Hop Baseball

Bad Hop Baseball on Steam Deck OLED - Nick

  • Played on: Steam Deck OLED

Spring Training is here, and I’m getting in the swing of things with Bad Hop Baseball on Steam. A bargain at $1.99, the game takes baseball and infuses it into the world of pachinko. Think baseball-themed Peggle and you get the idea. Players control the strength of their swing and leave the rest to chaos. Fun Stuff.


Dan W: Indiana Jones and the Great Circle

Xbox Game Pass on RG556 - Dan W

I just got an RG556 as part of a trade, and while I’m not sure if I like it enough to be my primary Android handheld the screen is very nice and it makes an unexpectedly good game-streaming device, despite the lack of Wi-Fi 6.


Shawn: Wario Land 4

Wario Land 4 on Miyoo Mini - Shawn

Been making my way, slowly, through Wario Land 4 on my Miyoo Mini. It’s such an easy game to pick up, play for a bit, put away, then come back to later. It’s also maybe one of the most visually appealing games released on the GBA. My dream is for Nintendo to return to the series, but with it being over 15 years since the last one, I’m not so sure they ever will.

Stealth1982: Final Fantasy VI Pixel Remaster

Final Fantasy VI Pixel Remaster - Retroid Pocket 5 - Stealth1982

Haven’t played this game since I had it on the GBA, good to come back and see what’s improved.
