What Video Game Did I Play Yesterday?

Pac-Man Museum+ (XBox Series S)

April 17th, 2023

I'm still pretty wobbly this morning, but went to the doctor yesterday for help. It turns out I had a nasty sinus infection and bronchitis, so right now, I'm forcing myself to eat a big breakfast in order to take my medicine without a stomachache. I already do feel somewhat better, but the somewhat is operative. Today's post will still be fairly short.

On Nintendo Switch Online, I wanted to play Super Mario Land because I remembered liking the music as a kid, but that game isn't in their Game Boy library! Super Mario Land 2: Six Golden Coins is, though, so I played that for a bit. I'd never tried it before, and it was fun.

I worked on the current event in Disney Tsum Tsum a bit more than I should have because it requires zero power from me.

I also turned on Pac-Man Museum+ to decorate my arcade and ended up playing Pac'N'Roll Remix, which ruled. Please expect more on this game in future posts.

My conditions today are not ideal. I had to get up early because of coughing, but my throat was so bad I had a miso soup packet for breakfast rather than cereal or granola, to make sure I had something in my stomach before taking cold medicine. That's passed, so I'm feeling slightly better, but a lot of my time last night was eaten up not quite by working, but by trying to do a work task, where I needed to download a big file from one system and upload it to another. It wasn't hard, and I wouldn't even say it was really work, but it took me until 11 at night to get it accomplished. I don't have to struggle to get it done Monday, though, so that's something.

My game time last night was really awful. I played Pac-Man Museum+ on my XBox for a few minutes right before trying to sleep. I gave Pac in Time a shot and really bounced off of it, so most of my time was spent with Pac Mania. I'm not sure I love Pac Mania. It's a little sluggish feeling, and I don't like how little of the screen is visible at once. It's not awful, though, and it was an okay way to kill ten minutes.

My allergies are really bad today, but I got myself up and outside for a walk around some nearby strip malls. It makes me feel like I had a vaguely successful morning.

Last night, I did not kick butt at games, though. I briefly tried Pac-Man Museum+ on Game Pass, thinking it would easily let me play Pac-Attack. However, Pac-Attack needs to be unlocked, and even though the requirements to get it are easy, they were vaguely mysterious due to sleepiness. Instead, I played Pac-Land for a few minutes, which I didn't love. I might try it again sometime, though.

I then hopped over to Yakuza 0, where I played the UFO catchers in an arcade for 45 minutes straight. It was really good.
