What Video Game Did I Play Yesterday?

Ridge Racer 64 (Nintendo Switch Online)

October 25th, 2025

This morning, I had my annual vaccinations, so I feel pretty zoned out right now. Yesterday was kind of a laid back game day, though. I beat the second race in Ridge Racer 64, which was an excellent feeling! I haven't done much with the third race, so I don't know if I actually improved at the game overall. I'm getting ahead bit by bit, though!

I got off my butt and went back to playing Fitness Boxing feat. Hatsune Miku, too, which was okay! I didn't actually want to play, so it wasn't much fun, but exercise is at least somewhat important! This is a relatively painless way to do it.

Before bed, I played a stage in Vampire Survivors, too. I cleared an unlock, I think just a weapon evolution deal, and that was good. I'll probably get back to it soon!

I went back to trying to clear the second race in Ridge Racer 64 last night, and spent about 45 minutes losing. In fact, I was doing considerably worse than I was the first time I played. It wasn't unwelcome frustration, so I'll keep going with this. I don't expect I'll do well in an arcade racer, so I'm still having a pretty good time getting my butt kicked.

I'm doing a quick post before work today, which is easy, since I just played Ridge Racer 64 last night. I've never really played this style of racer before, at least not with any intent to win, so the drift mechanics are a bit of an uphill battle for me. It feels like a doable challenge, though, so it's much more fun than discouraging. I managed to win the first race, even though it took a lot of tries, and was getting second place in the second race pretty regularly when I shut it off last night.
