Good Goings: February edition
Hey, welcome to Good Goings! A hopefully regular-ish series where I’ll celebrate some stuff that has happened or is yet to happen in the otaku sphere. The world can bring us down sometimes so it’s important to kick back, relax and remind ourselves of the things we’re happy about. It feels like it’s never been a better time to be a geek nowadays so pop on the kettle and let’s get cracking with what goodies have come up this month…

What’s on the Wishlist: 21 Games of 2021
So… I probably should have written this post last month back when 2021 was all shiny and new, but better late than never, right? As always, exciting new games are released every year and my backlog can scarcely keep up. In most cases I’m a ‘patient’ gamer by necessity, which means my wishlist usually ends up getting lots of love! I was looking over my wishlist recently and wanted to highlight some upcoming and ogle-worthy games, so here are twenty-one of them for good measure. There’s something for everyone this year, so let’s dig in!

Pokémon Tag Post – 25th Anniversary Celebration
I haven’t mentioned Pokémon much on this blog but it’s actually the series I’ve stuck with the longest. I remember playing Pokémon Red a long long time ago with my sister and it’s been our tradition to play each mainline game together after trading starters. For me, Pokémon is a nostalgic treat, a comfort blanket that’s easy to play and instantly gratifying. And so, when I saw this great Tag Post celebrating Pokémon’s 25th Anniversary over at McKenna Talks About Games, I knew I had to participate!

Nina Aquila: Legal Eagle (Chapter I, II, & III)
I stumbled across the very first episode of Nina Aquila: Legal Eagle (NALE) a few years ago whilst trawling Itch.io for something vaguely Ace Attorney-ish. I had played Danganronpa and 1bitHeart and, though both excellent games, they didn’t quite scratch that courtroom itch. It was my great pleasure then that a sudden turnabout for my woes arrived in the form of Nina Aquila, an episodically released hybrid visual novel/adventure. After playing and thoroughly enjoying the chapters currently available, I’m here to tell you why any fan of mysteries, quirky animesque humour and, of course, a certain unobjectionable adventure series should pay attention to this legal eagle.

NPG’s 2020 Game Awards!
This was a wonderful year of gaming for me and I wrote a very very long post on all the games I played here. What was my cream of the crop from those games? Read on to find out (yes, I shamelessly stole these awards from Steam)!
