So, the “Korean Drone Flying Tour” folks are aware that, technically, South Korea’s still in this, uh, un-ended war thing, right? Just thought I’d mention that odd tidbit, and I can’t be the only one thinking it. Or maybe I am. Who knows.
Anyway… this week’s release list. Is it me, or does it feel like everything’s slowing down? Maybe my brain is just fried from the madness that was Switch 2 Day 1? Or perhaps it’s the post-Golden Week blues. We’ll see what Saturday brings.
This week’s biggie – or, like, a bunch of biggies – is all about Capcom Fighting Collection 2. So many underrated gems crammed in there, especially those Power Stone games. Pure nostalgia, right? Then there’s the priciest player, this collaboration from Aksys/Otomate called 7’scarlet. Oh, and don’t forget Yasha: Legends of the Demon Blade. Been itching to peek at that one before it officially drops.
And hey, if you’ve been anywhere else, you might’ve caught American Arcadia by Team 17 and Kulebra and the Souls of Limbo via Fellow Traveller. We’re seeing just two Korean Drone games at the moment – though they’ve become this year’s version of Aldora Games by Pix Arts, if you ask me.
THINGS WE PROBABLY MISSED EARLIER: Punk Shot from Konami rolled out in some archive release. You know, blink and you miss it kind of deal.
