I believe that Animal Crossing: New Horizons was the first dive into Nintendo's business plan of "releasing games with content planned for the future". While i did not play it at launch, it missed a lot of features and marks for people. I wouldn't even consider revisiting the end product that we have now, unfortunately.

I checked out a bit of Tekken 7 as part of my project where i check out each game that Super Smash Bros. Ultimate featured as DLC, and Kazuya from Tekken was on the list! I think it's okay, Street Fighter is definitely more of my thing, while Tekken is the more serious, darker looking game. Not too fond of the gameplay, but the character designs and music were nice.

ASTRO's Playroom is probably my favorite tech demo ever. It displays the cool functions of the PS5 and is loaded with references to some of my favorites, like Final Fantasy, PaRappa, Until Dawn, DDR, etc. It feels nice to control as well, it makes me hopeful to get a full game featuring the little guy that isn't tied to wearing a VR over your eyes.
It was good! I never played the original, but the remake was pretty fun! I mostly played it as Waddle Dee while i let my little sis take the helm as Kirby, i'm glad it was simple enough so that we could play together. The minigames are SO FUN too! Definitely could see some fun multiplayer mayhem with it.
ASTRO BOT Rescue Mission is a pretty fun game. The biggest obstacle has to be the VR headset itself. It feels really clunky sometimes, but i understand that my play area wasn't ideal for how much space Sony wanted me to have in my room. If you can get past the hurdle of buying a PSVR, i'd say this is worth your time!
Trails of Cold Steel is a fantastic game. The gameplay is fun and interesting, the cast of characters were all really nice to fall in love with, and the music was great as well! I think the easiest thing to say to explain my four stars is the length and the sudden difficulty spike at the final fight. The 75 hour playtime felt like it could've been squished to about 60 to 65, but i still enjoyed it. However, i didn't really enjoy the sudden difficulty spike with the end of chapter 6 and close to the end of the final chapter. Both were fights that were difficult mostly because i was playing very casually. Trails of Cold Steel introduces it's mechanics fine, but if i'm gonna play the sequel, i'll need to pay attention a bit more i suppose.

Stray is a cute little game about a cat who falls into a ruined city and works his way back outside, meeting robots and little slugs who eat metal. It's not my typical game for sure, but it was definitely a lot of fun! I would recommend to anyone who just wants a cute little time with a cute cat and some fun character interactions.
