Sure thing, here goes:

Alright, so this past week, I’ve been juggling two weirdly contradictory states—feeling both completely overwhelmed and sort of bored out of my mind. First up, Gradius Origins. Yeah, the one from that March Switch 1 Direct. What’s up with their lasers? I mean, they’re the weapon of choice for taking down the NES Pro Wrestling boss. Who knew, right?
Then there’s The House of the Dead 2 remake happening. Put a check on that, especially with Forever Entertainment behind it. Oh, and for something entirely different, dive into the anime world with Demon Slayer and Fate/Hollow Ataraxia. Both are great if you’re looking for a change of pace or, you know, a virtual escape.
Now, let’s talk the quirky stuff. The Edge of Allegoria gives off major Pokemon vibes (RBY, in HD). Yet it’s not even the boldest copyright stretch lately. Team17’s Ritual of Raven holds that crown, I think.
And wait, there’s more. Things we missed last week: Partner Showcase—cue “Chilling By The Fire.” Spoiler? We’re still marking days since the last Saga reveal. I really hope Square Enix spares us next time. Meanwhile, some 3DS Harvest Moon titles made the jump to Switch. Nostalgia, anyone? Also, Taito’s “Field Day” got the spotlight in the Archives release. Pretty neat.
Now, if you’re wondering about that EGGCONSOLE game—yeah, seems playable without speaking Japanese. Just be ready for some head-scratching moments if dialogues get heavy, but hey, action RPGs are a universal language, right?
North America releases have quite the lineup: Demon Slayer -Kimetsu no Yaiba- The Hinokami Chronicles 2 for about $60, or should I say $59.99 because that makes it sound cheaper? Gradius Origins is priced at $39.99, and then there’s Fate/Hollow Ataraxia Remastered. Reminds me of my coffee spending habits—roughly $30, or maybe $29.99, for clarity.
Jumping quickly through the rest, The House of Dead 2 remake and Fitness Adventure Pro, both at $25. Or was it $24.99? The Edge of Allegoria stands steadfast at the same price. Turbo Kid, Ritual of Raven, you name it. Slopecrashers sounds way too fun, priced under $20.
Let’s not forget Europe. Demon Slayer clocks in at €59.99, Gradius Origins isn’t far behind. I never quite understood pricing across currencies. Fate/Hollow Ataraxia lands mid-week. The House of the Dead remake and Fitness Adventure Pro again grace the list.
Over in Japan, Yuukyuu no Tierblade soars at ¥7700. Gradius Origins tags along for ¥6380, and Operation Night Strikers steadies itself at ¥4750. A whole slew of Corpse Party entries trickle down the list.
Anyway, I’m going off on a tangent. Discounts are a thing—Roki’s a huge 90% off. The price drop game stays strong with PSPrices and DekuDeals leading the charge.
Do I even need to sum this up? Games, numbers, remakes, Japanese, savings. Dive in, ignore or dissect—it’s your call.
