We’ve made it to yet another weekend and it’s finally time to relax with some of our favourite games. After the excitement of the physical Hollow Knight<\/a> release and the horror of seeing Zelda: Breath of the Wild without its cel-shading<\/a> this week, team Nintendo Life has gathered to talk over our weekend gaming plans. You can read up on what we’re up to below, and make sure to join in via our poll and comment sections. Enjoy!<\/em><\/p>\n

This is random, and I\u2019m not sure why, but I\u2019ve reverted back to the old 3DS to play a few throwbacks this weekend: Pok\u00e9mon Alpha Sapphire<\/a><\/strong> (most hate this game, but I personally love it) as well as X & Y<\/a><\/strong>, Animal Crossing: New Leaf<\/a><\/strong>, various Zelda<\/strong> titles, Luigi\u2019s Mansion<\/a><\/strong>, etc. As I look at this list, I realize I may just be getting excited for all of the new games in these franchises coming out on Switch later this year… woah, insight.<\/p>\n

This weekend I’m almost certainly going to be playing more of RICO<\/a><\/strong>. It’s giving me the shooter fix I need when I’m commuting or chilling out on the sofa. Even when things get really challenging in the latter parts of the campaign I just love it. Plus those weapon skins won’t earn themselves.<\/p>\n

I’ll also be spending some time with Motorsport Manager<\/a><\/strong> on Switch. I played the original back on mobile a couple of years ago and really dug how well it captured the complexity and abject disappointment of modern F1. Here’s hoping this version lives up to expectations. Have a good ‘un!<\/p>\n
