29 super mario odyssey - how do i stop this game from telling me to play with detached joy-cons

Dear Readers,

Why does the game always boot up by showing a screen suggesting I play with detached Joy-Cons and hang there for several seconds? I don't want to.

Anyway, more Sand Kingdom exploring. This time, the ruins for more Power Moons!

It's back to the Cascade Kingdom with me to look for more Power Moons. Didn't want to do a Broodal boss rush right now!

25 super mario odyssey - the broodal dark side

Dear Readers,

After collecting 250 Power Moons, Cappy told me I was able to travel to the Dark Side of the moon. I decided to take a break from treasure hunting to check it out!

24 super mario odyssey - learning the diving boost jump thing

Dear Readers,

Still hanging around at the Cascade Kingdom. The music here is glorious and all, but when you're looking for moons it can get a teensy bit samey. It was great for the trailer but we've got the game now!

Dear Readers,

I headed back to the Cap Kingdom, where a whole bunch of energy gathered in a block like the one I saw back on the moon. I decided to check it out.

Dear Readers,

With the Broodals out of the way (for good?), it's time to follow the road to Bowser and this remixed Mario 3 Bowser music!

Now for Bowser's Castle! I was surprised to see it was an ancient Japanese style castle. Pretty cool :)

After reliving the festival yet again, I hunted down a few more moons in New Donk City before heading to the Seaside Kingdom.

2 pac-man - gb version - 29,740 points

Dear Readers,

Just thought I'd give this a go. I was inspired to play this again since Mark from Classic Game Room is currently reviewing a bunch of Pac-Man releases for many consoles :)

9 super mario odyssey - too-realistic bad weather in the city

Dear Readers,

Finally! The Metro Kingdom! I didn't come at a good time though. It was in the middle of a very stormy night and there was big trouble on one of the skyscrapers. The rain looks awesome and a little too much like what the weather's like here irl now.

8 super mario odyssey - new donk city or bust!

Dear Readers,

I went back to that Fuzzy area with the ledges but couldn't find any other moons. Ah well. Onward to taking care of the Broodals in the Lake Kingdom. After that, the Metro Kingdom! Or at least, that was the plan...

5 super mario odyssey - kicking broodal butt in the wooded kingdom

Dear Readers,

If I try playing this game with detached Joy-Con controllers, will the opening loading screen stop suggesting it to me? Anyway, Halloween's over so let's go to the Wooded Kingdom.

4 super mario odyssey - why cap kingdom was the best place to celebrate halloween

Dear Readers,

I headed to the Cap Kingdom instead of the Wooded Kingdom for now, because it's a Halloweeny place and it was still Halloween during this session :) I'm glad I was able to access it now!

1 halloween - scored 51,525 points

Dear Readers,

Wasn't sure what to do exactly for Halloween so I played the Halloween game for Atari 2600! There's an Angry Video Game Nerd episode about it as well so I know about it somewhat. I watched it again and the video came out like 9 years ago. Wow...
