YvoCaro Plays
In the series YvoCaro Plays (find my unedited gaming thoughts here) I tend to ramble on about my gaming adventures. And sometimes these thoughts lead to something altogether different. This week I talk about my first experience in Virtual Reality and how years of gaming paid off. And about my first thoughts of My Time at Portia on the Switch!

Nintendo Indie Highlights March 20
The second Nintendo Indie showcase for this year: check out the specifics for the Indie Direct of March 20. I must say I wasn’t overwhelmed with what was on offer. A lot of the same, or so it seemed. Still, I felt some game merited to be mentioned. What games stood out?

I’m going to let you go with a last snippet of news, although if you’ve read my YvoCaro Plays above, you will already know. Have a very happy gaming week!
My Time at Portia releases April 16!
Well finally!! The console version of My Time at Portia is coming to the Switch, PS4 and Xbox on April 16! The game will be available both digitally and physically. When you pre-order the game you will receive the “Housewarming gift set” to help you get started.
I am so excited about my time in portia…my husband won’t be…we are in the middle of a big move…he knows what happens when a new game comes out…all I want to do is play…so we will have to postpone this move…thats all I can see!!! Lol
I agree. Plus, he must understand that you will have a lot of renovating and building already to do in Portia, right?
Oh yes!! I’ve been waiting for a game like this…and it comes along when I’m in a sea of boxes!!! Oh well…i will still enjoy it when I can. I have been so missing my gaming time…i need that break…just to go on an adventure! Thanks for all the info on the games…just tell me when Square Enix is bringing all the Kingdom Hearts to switch…no one will ever see me outside again!!
Well, there have been some Kingdom Hearts games on the DS before. That would be one for me too, and I’m so hoping that No no Kuni will sometime make it to the Switch as well!
Ni No Kuni!!!
I hope so too!
We have a PS4, but I get pain in my arms from playing very very fast.
The Switch controller is a little bit lighter and the thumb cursor moves a little bit easier, so I can play without feeling that pain.
(if I don’t play for hours and hours at an end )
The Kingdom Hearts games would be awesome too! I tried one on the 3ds once, but it didn’t have the same feel to it.
My Time in Portia looks great! I didn’t back the game at the time, can’t remember why not…
Good luck with moving Ladygamer!
Thanks for the good wishes.. I would love to play ni no kuni…i loved all the Kingdom Hearts games…ds or otherwise…counting down the days till Portia comes out…this moving has really cut into my gaming time….it has to end soon…and both me and my better half are going to make up for lost time!!!
