My big plan is to play some Super Mario Odyssey<\/a> over the next couple of days, though. That DK Direct has left me with Power Moons on the mind, and crossing a few more off the seemingly never-ending list is my only course of action. What a game, eh?<\/p>\n Ollie Reynolds, Staff Writer<\/p>\n I\u2019m still playing quite a bit of Yakuza 0: Director\u2019s Cut<\/a> at the moment, though I must say I\u2019m quite tempted to dive back into Worms Armageddon: Anniversary Edition<\/a> and check out the new additions to the game line-up.<\/p>\n I\u2019ve been a bit manic with my Switch 2 games recently; jumping between a handful of them at frequent intervals out of an abundance of excitement. I\u2019m conscious to just slow down for a little bit and focus on one thing at a time. Probably won\u2019t happen, though.<\/p>\n Watch on YouTube<\/strong> <\/a><\/p>\n Subscribe to Nintendo Life<\/a> on YouTube824k<\/a><\/p>\n Alana Hagues, Deputy Editor<\/p>\n It’s Fantasy Life i<\/a>. That’s it. When I start it up, I’m physically unable to pull myself away for about two hours. It’s a real problem, but the whole darn thing is just excellent all around. I’m going to hit the 100 hour mark on this loooong before the year is out…<\/p>\n Amazingly, I haven’t actually tried out the GameCube NSO app yet, so I think a few rounds of SoulCalibur II<\/a> are on the docket for the weekend. But I can’t leave my island alone for too long. I’ve got too many lives to level up.<\/p>\n Gon\u00e7alo Lopes, Contributor<\/p>\n Still making my way around TRON: Catalyst after some unexpected plot twists. But this week\u2019s champion on the Switch eShop is Front Mission 3: Remake<\/a>. Questionable choices of generative AI usage<\/a> on the game\u2019s fictional internet aside, this is one of the strongest entries in the whole franchise and while being a very \u201csafe\u201d remake, I quite welcome the upgraded PS1 visuals in glorious 16:9 screen ratio.<\/p>\n On the Switch 2 front I got a few new bangers but am still too hooked on Fast Fusion<\/a> and its latest free DLC update while carving my way into chapter 7 of Yakuza 0: Director\u2019s Cut. There was also a very nice update on Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine II<\/a> that brings the new siege PVE game mode that will surely take a chunk of my weekend. Assuming I can safely ignore STEAM summer sales, that\u2019s my weekend sorted.<\/p>\n Watch on YouTube<\/strong> <\/a><\/p>\n Subscribe to Nintendo Life<\/a> on YouTube824k<\/a><\/p>\n PJ O’Reilly, Staff Writer<\/p>\n Well, I’m off for holiday the next two weeks, so I’m planning on doing some serious damage to a few things, including my game collection. I’ll be playing a whole lot of Death Stranding 2<\/a> on PS5, and the amazing Dune: The Awakening<\/strong> on PC, those are my main priorities, and if I don’t do serious hours in them on my week off it’s never happening. However, my beautiful Switch 2 is also gonna be getting plenty of action, fret not<\/p>\n My sons and I will be continuing to hoover up everything in Mario Kart World<\/a>, but I’m also making my way very steadily through the new and improved Breath of the Wild<\/a>, which I rushed through first time out. It’s got me wanting to 100% this time, though. Otherwise, Civ 7<\/a>, Cyberpunk 2077 and Shin Megami Tensei V<\/a> are all on my holiday hit-list.<\/p>\n Have a great weekend, and catch you all after a quick two-week power nap. Take care, pals!<\/p>\n Kate Gray, Contributor<\/p>\n This weekend… I’m on a plane! Again! But that means that perhaps it’s time to catch up on my backlog. Or… time to do research for my own project! Which means that my options are:<\/p>\n Vampire Survivors<\/a>, which I’m using as inspiration for a game I’m making to learn programming<\/p>\n Hundred Line<\/a>, which I know I’m going to love (as I’ve mentioned in at least one other WAYP)<\/p>\n Mario & Luigi: Brothership<\/a>, which I bought full price and then only played a couple of hours of<\/p>\n Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma<\/a>, which I hear great things about<\/p>\n So many games! So little time. I haven’t decided yet, which means I’ll probably default to Fantasy Life… again…<\/p>\n Watch on YouTube<\/strong> <\/a><\/p>\n Subscribe to Nintendo Life<\/a> on YouTube824k<\/a><\/p>\n Fraser Gilbert, Pure Xbox Editor<\/p>\n Hello from the world of Pure Xbox<\/a>! I haven’t delved into the world of Switch 2 yet, but I’m excited about my latest purchase for the Switch 1 – Super Mario Bros. Wonder<\/a>! I managed to pick it up at a great price on Vinted, and as someone who tends to stay away from 2D Mario (but loves Super Mario Odyssey<\/a>), I’m curious to see how I get on it.<\/p>\n Beyond that, I’m also still playing a lot of Super Mario Party Jamboree<\/a> (kinda addicted to the Koopathlon, not gonna lie), and I’m meaning to get back into Ring Fit Adventure<\/a>. I had a great streak going on Ring Fit for weeks, but things got busy around the Xbox Showcase, and I ended up neglecting it. It’s time to right that wrong!<\/p>\n That’s what we have planned for the weekend, but what about you? Let us know in the following poll which games you’re planning on booting up over the next couple of days.<\/p>\n![\"YouTube](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/1751236390_263_maxresdefault.jpg\")
