We’ve made it to the end of yet another week, this time full of new Switch updates<\/a> and more Switch Lite drift talk<\/a>, so now it’s time to put all that behind us and relax with our favourite games.<\/em> The Nintendo Life team have gathered to chat about our gaming plans for the next couple of days, and we’d love for you to join us via the poll and comments sections below. Enjoy!<\/em><\/p>\n

This weekend I\u2019m headed off on vacation to the land of the Golden Gate Bridge, so I\u2019ll have plenty of time to play games on my flights there and back! I also just picked up a Switch Lite and stocked it up with a ton of indie titles to take advantage of that sweet D-Pad.<\/p>\n

I just finished up the remake of Zelda: Link\u2019s Awakening<\/a><\/strong>, so now I\u2019m torn between venturing further up the mountain that is Celeste<\/a><\/strong>, or starting something brand new. I\u2019ve picked up quite a few games thanks to all the recent sales (Minit<\/a><\/strong>, Transistor<\/a><\/strong>, Untitled Goose Game<\/a><\/strong>, and many, many more) but I\u2019m also kind of itching to roll around a few towns with my fresh Prince in Katamari Damacy<\/a><\/strong>! Just like picking a show on Netflix, the possibilities are near endless and I feel slightly overwhelmed!<\/p>\n

This weekend I\u2019ll be ticking along with the same stuff from the last couple of weekends \u2013 RiME<\/a><\/strong>, Astral Chain<\/a><\/strong> and Untitled Goose Game<\/strong> \u2013 but I\u2019ve also downloaded Sayonara Wild Hearts<\/a><\/strong> and I\u2019m eager to crack into that (assuming I can get some alone time to slip on my headphones). I\u2019ve heard it\u2019s short and sweet \u2013 the perfect game to make me feel like I\u2019m making a dent in the ol\u2019 backlog. Have a good one, folks.<\/p>\n
