\"Astralchain\"<\/a><\/figure>\n

Yet another week has flown by, this time full of Switch controller LED light revelations<\/a> and stories of what might just be the very first time anyone has managed to reach the Switch’s maximum playtime<\/a> for a single game.<\/em><\/p>\n

We’re feeling more than ready to sit down for some gaming over the weekend, and as usual, we’ve shared our plans below. Feel free to join in via our poll and comment sections. Enjoy!

Having reviewed The Sinking City<\/a><\/strong> for Nintendo Life, I’m still happily exploring the corrupted streets of Oakmont in search of clues, cases and Cthulhu. I’m also really enjoying Astral Chain<\/a><\/strong>, because what’s not to love about beating up monsters as a futuristic super cop?<\/p>\n

This weekend, I’ll be revisiting LEGO Jurassic World<\/a><\/strong>, because I need very little excuse to jump back into a game featuring multiple miniature Jeff Goldblums. I’ll even be taking the Amnesia: Collection<\/a><\/strong> for a spin. Expect me to yelp\/drop some massive swears in fear as a result. Reviews incoming for both!<\/p>\n

Gavin Lane, staff writer<\/h2>\n

For what feels like the first time in months, there\u2019s nothing tempting me in this week\u2019s eShop sale, so I\u2019ll be diving back into Astral Chain<\/strong>. I\u2019m a couple of hours in but most of my time has been spent with tutorials, so I\u2019m looking forward to cracking out the chain and ridding the world of some beasties. That opening sure was something.<\/p>\n

And after going on a GameCube nostalgia trip recently in honour of the console\u2019s 18th birthday (keep an eye out for a couple of features going live soon), I plan on firing up the Wavebird and spending time with some classics: Chibi-Robo<\/a><\/strong>, Need For Speed: Most Wanted<\/a><\/strong>, Star Wars Rogue Squadron II<\/a><\/strong> and the original Luigi\u2019s Mansion<\/a><\/strong>. I\u2019ll use the Wii\u2019s backward compatibility for the sake of convenience, although I might<\/em> get the old \u2018Cube out and sit it on the side as I play. That console is a thing of beauty.<\/p>\n
