Alright, here goes.

So, I’m sitting here, you know, like just staring at my screen. Wondering if the Switch 2 will actually make it out before I lose my mind. Probably not, just saying.
Last time we were here—gosh, was it 2017?—oh yeah, it was chaos with a side of, “Aren’t there way too few games for two systems?” That time was February. I remember because my coffee was terrible that day. Now, the Switch 2? North America’s lineup multiplied like rabbits—seriously, six becoming thirty-six? And Europe? It’s like they injected caffeine directly and went up tenfold. Japan’s got like… forty-ish? But, oh, can’t even check those because of, you know, region stuff. Fun times, huh?
Anyway. Oh right, games. We’ve got this strategic RPG thingie, Fuga: Melodies of Steel 3. CyberConnect2 made it, and you can bet there’s a “Don’t let kids shoot stuff” button. I mean, kids, right? Playtonic’s got a cozy Cattle Country thing going. Sounds chill. And two Saturn throwbacks too—Steam-Hearts for shooting and Advanced V.G. for fighting. Or was it the other way around? Who knows.
Oh, we missed Wilmot’s sequel last week—Wilmot Works It Out. And something to do with playing cards, Ryukyu? Solitaire poker, because why not.
### North America
First up, Fuga: Melodies of Steel 3 at about forty bucks. Seems steep, but eh, what do I know. Cattle Country? That cozy game I mentioned earlier. It’s $25. Tuesday stuff. We’ve got Shikhondo, some kind of rampage? Twenty-five bucks. Wild sounding. Staffer Case, a supernatural mystery thing, also $25. And that’s just a peek.
Steam-Heart’s, Wednesday drop. Never heard of it, but there it is. Also, Pipistrello with a yo-yo? $20. Could be interesting. Honestly, I’ve lost track now. Something about fishing on Wednesday too.
You’re still reading? Props to you. Oh, Risk of Rain 2 is dirt cheap right now, like 75% off.
### Europe
Europe’s got its stuff in line. Fuga again, same price there in euros as here in dollars. Thanks, exchange rates. On Tuesday, get cozy with cows in Cattle Country for 25 euros. Shikhondo’s over there too, same mystical madness.
Pipistrello again on Wednesday! Saturn throwbacks also drop Wednesday, though. Don’t know what’s up with this day of the week but there you go.
### Japan
Oh man, Japan. That’s another world right there. Lists get wild real fast. Fuga’s priced in yen here—wildly different numbers but same game. Lunark is happening too, three and a half grand in yen.
Does anyone really read down this far? Maybe. Maybe not. Anyway, theater unrest’s below 500 yen, if you were wondering. Yay?
So, that’s it, I guess. Or not. Maybe there’s more, I can’t tell anymore. My eyes are glazing over. Can Nintendo just release the Switch 2 already?
Fin.
