Just thought I'd make a space to talk about any video games I've been into. Currently loving my modded 3DS!

Ohhh my god how badly I want to play Animal Crossing Deluxe....so that's what I'm going to figure out how to do. Tonight, after typing this lol.
Wouldn't it be cool if we could visit each other online through it? I hope I don't need my physical copy and my Wii for it, even though I have those things I don't wanna fish all that out and have to learn how to mod my Wii to play it lol.
Also I watched a video about Super Mario RPG that just kinda sold it to me? I'll have to figure that one out, too.
I saw the Pokemon Direct, it was just okay.
Of course the cute parts are really cute but man, a bunch of app games and another instance of Pokemon ignoring increasingly common complaints about their mainline games. I just don't know if I'm ever going to be a "modern" Pokemon fan, which I feel just sorta bad because I know this is just such a cliche take to have. I really do try with the newer stuff, I love to gamble on Sword's Wonder Trade and there are new NPC characters that keep getting introduced that I usually really like (I'm very partial to most Pokemon human designs lol), but this isn't going to have me coming back to play the newest game I have vs Old Reliable for the hundreth time lol. Also it's just frustrating to see fans ask time and time again for the same stuff, sometimes rather normal things too, and not a single thing close gets implemented, and the game sells a bunch of copies and makes a bunch of money. I mean, why would the cycle end at this point? I think there's an effort to add such things in app games instead, like voice acting, to just kinda shut people up. I also just kinda have accepted that Pokemon is for kids, which is obvious, but it also means adult fans won't have a say, and are considered the minority at best of the entire demographic. So basically, I just try to chill out and not care about anything new. But sometimes I do hold out for things like remakes or the Virtual Console popping up because I am still shocked they don't put any mainline on that. I'm incredibly fond of some of the amazing things that happen within Pokemon fans online, because so many people do what they can to keep being a retro fan vibrant and fresh. I love seeing what the handheld retro console and modded console community are able to do and how it really elevates older Pokemon games, and honestly I've had the time to also appreciate the different eras in detail while I've learned I switch from wanting a 3DS-era seamless QOL glide through an adventure to a GB-era nostalgic and classic grind pretty often. I'll admit retro has the advantage with more in stock to choose from. I know nostalgic plays a huge part, but also not entirely, some of my "old" DS games are actually when I fell off for the games for a little while. I do regret not being there for the debut of Sun and Moon, because those games are outstanding to me. I think there's a lot about that era that I was shocked didn't stick or get built upon. Anyway, as far as nostalgia goes I know I still got it like crazy, honestly don't all retro Pokemon fans?
Anyway, I've got a mod to figure out....the lonely gamergurl mods her Wii at nite

Been playing mostly Fantasy Life, Sudoku, and Sanrio Picross lately. I guess you could also count Gaia games if you want, but I'm mostly playing pinball there lol. In Fantasy Life, I'm an alchemist, and even though I'm over 20 hours in, I'm trying to see if I can master alchemy first before trying a new life in it. Is that even possible? The game is really charming and I enjoy the grind, but I totally see why that wouldn't sell the game to someone.
