Bought Final Fantasy XVI for $35 and started it last night. This will be my first Final Fantasy game. I played through the demo earlier this fall, so I could pick up right where it left off.

I have Part One of the 7 Remake too, but I will likely wait until the 3rd installment's release date is announced before I get to it.

Almost done with the Metroid Prime remaster and realizing I missed one or two missile expansions somewhere. But I'm right up to the Ridley fight and I don't care enough to go back and find the others.

I started playing this just after Tears of the Kingdom and it was a huge mental adjustment to not be able to fast travel anywhere I wanted to.

Metroid Prime 2 has even more backtracking.

Modern games or just retro?

Combo of both. Mostly retro with a rotating selection of pinball machines.

The kick out the underage patrons after 9 and it turns into a barcade/movie theater. A great addition to our entertainment options.

Have fun. The only modern arcade game that I played was Halo: Fireteam Raven. Very fun. I didn't enjoy the modern pinball games that I played. The 90s had peak pinball machines, imho.

Light gun games and retro games with a modern spin (Space Invaders, Pac Man, etc.) and not much else.
