What Video Game Did I Play Yesterday?

Hero of Fate (Switch)

May 17th, 2025

Last night I chatted with a friend and worked on a puzzle instead of playing games too much, which was really good! This will be a quick post today.

I worked on the Jujutsu Kaisen puzzle a bit more, and am finding 1000 pieces to be overwhelming in a good way. My progress now is slow, but it'll pick up!

I played Fitness Boxing: Fist of the North Star for a little bit to force myself to exercise.

Before bed, I played a run in Hero of Fate, too. Finishing the run crashed the game, but my progress saved, so that was basically fine.

My 100 games in 100 days goal is over because Capcom Fighting Collection 2 came out and I'd rather kick some heads right now. 40 games in 40 days was honestly pretty good, and I'm sick of finding cats for now, so I make this choice with no shame.

Last night, Capcom Fighting Collection 2 unlocked on my Switch at 11pm, so I finished what needed to be done and dug into it, starting with Capcom vs. SNK: Millenium Fight 2000. I'd played the kind of budget-release PS1 version of this a lot, Capcom vs. SNK Pro, so I was really impressed by some of the stage effects! One of them had a lot of fire in the background, with a light effect on the sprites, and it was so nifty! Plus, this game is so fun and feels so nice and smooth to play! It's not even my favorite game in this collection by a mile! It is crazy to just have all of these games on my Switch. I'm a very happy camper.

Fighting games are bad for before bed, though, so I also tried Hero of Fate, a Survivors-like with a lot of story bits and cutaways to mini-quests. I got too sleepy and shut it off before finishing a run, but I'm looking forward to playing more of this. It's weird and feels a bit off, but it's interesting, too.

I also need to get back to daily exercise, so I played Fitness Boxing feat. Hatsune Miku for 15 or so minutes. It was a little boring, but basically okay. I figured out my arm was bothering me on one side when I was playing this daily because one of my legs is just a tiny bit shorter than the others, so I jammed a weird jelly thing in my sneaker on that side and am getting back to it.
