A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney! My partner and I each voice act half the characters. It’s been a HOOT! I think I’m at the end of the first game.

I recently got New Leaf installed on my hacked N3DSXL. I loved New Horizons but it got a bit stale. The villagers were all kinda samey and didn’t have much dialogue. New Leaf insofar feels like it has much more soul. But we’re only 30 hours in or so, so we’ll see!

I'm picturing a couple cuddled up in bed. Sitting up with a single DS. One person "driving" the game and the other backseating occasionally.

Then the dialogue hits and y'all dub it.
Sounds like an awesome time!

Hahaha that’s an adorable image, but we’re on the computer! My partner sits in the bed and I sit in my office chair next to the bed. I have my computer screen mirrored to a really big monitor for them to see. I click on things, and they do the brain-thinking.

We would cuddle while doing this, but we get REALLY into the voice acting, so we really gotta belt it out. We each have a solid set of unique voices for each character!

I don’t wanna get into spoiler territory just in case, but it’s fun that they are Maya and I’m Mia… I didn’t think that would come so heavily into play!

Hahaha magnificent. My partner is Phoenix, and I’m Edgeworth. I like to think my Edgeworth is pretty perfect. We’ll be switching for the second game, then switching back for the third. Assuming both characters still exist by then.

You two have fun and keep the games going. It's better than just binge watching a show together.

Oh heck yeah. We only binge watch shows a couple times a year when we get all messed up on MDMA hahaha
