What Video Game Did I Play Yesterday?

Virtua Fighter 2 (Genesis Mini, Miyoo Mini+)

December 26th, 2024

I was back to work today, and really was dragging! I managed to get through the day and run some errands, though, and am totally ok to post now!

I played a lot of really light, casual games yesterday, the sort of stuff I could play while hanging out and talking. Maybe the least casual thing I played was the Genesis/Mega Drive port of Virtua Fighter 2. I decided that even as a strange and impressive version of Virtua Fighter 2, it wasn't as good as a fresh baked croissant. That's not usually a comparison people have to make, but if it comes up for you, too, I do definitely recommend shutting it off and eating the croissant.

Later on, I idly played quite a bit of Water Sort Quest, too. It wasn't as good as the version of Virtua Fighter 2 I'd had on earlier, but it was way easier to play while eating Chex Mix.

Everything else I did was more normal gaming after I got home. I played a little of Fitness Boxing feat. Hatsune Miku, in an effort not to lose my streak, and did some successful achievement chasing.

I tried a mobile game called Picture Builder, too, where the goal is to put together little pixel art puzzles within a larger image. I liked the art and found it relaxing, so I'll probably play it again.

I did some grinding for gacha currency past just my dailies in Jujutsu Kaisen: Phantom Parade, too, and scored a 3rd copy of Nanami's SSR while I was at it. I know mobile RPGs like this are built to create a feeling of power, but it works and it's satisfying.
