Celeste (just replaying B-sides or C-sides), any Mario Tennis game (I pretty much rotate through them, with Mario's Tennis being my current fever thanks to Red Viper), Rocket League, Smash 4 on 3DS.

There are a few others that come close, but ultimately these are my go-to when I just need to tune off from brain noise haha. Preferably played in a portable device.

Mirrors edge (both OG and catalyst). world setting of this game, being detached from noisy city widens scope of how I look at everyday life, and overlooking NPCs go on their daily lives makes them appear tiny and insignificant, and I realize almost nothing is worth being anxious over in life, and it inspires me to be mindful and enjoy present moment.

EDIT : to lesser extent, Watch dogs 1 too. Taking a walk in rainy Chicago with "Califone - funeral singers" playing in background is soothing too. worth mentioning that I was not part of hype train leading up to its release because I was not following gaming news at time and just bought game because I liked cover (lol), and since I had no high expectations I enjoyed game for what it was.

For me, it's Gadget Racers (US) (!) on the GBA and King's Bounty on the Genesis. I've completed both games hundreds of times by now. King's Bounty is great because the scepter is in a different location each time you play. Sadly, the second Kings Bounty is nothing like the first one.

Tears of The Kingdom is turning into a comfort game as well. Sometimes, I just build things or look for fucking Koroks and their over packed backpack. FFS guys, thats why you cant move. I'd travel by vehicle, horse (this is a vehicle?), or foot looking for those little bitches. I fight all along the way and my inventory is crazy, so I should probably upgrade my armor soon. I really like the fairies.

Right now I play a lot of Balatro and Into the Breach on my Switch Lite. Playing portable adds up to the comfort factor.

animal crossing new leaf. sometimes the game i mindlessly play the most changes over the years but that one has always been there.
honestly any game i have for my 3DS would probably be just as worthy of the title :-)

    My opinion is that 199.99 is the sweet spot but that spot is long gone lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Just played some Micheal Jackson Moonwalker.... Those poor parents trying desperately to protect their children
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    400 is a decent sweet spot if we get enough out of it
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It's not like how it was when we were locked down to a few options and that's it
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    For me just buying a Pi and some accessories fills that not a PC void new consoles have just put them close to PC prices and all the patching and updates makes me feel like I might as well just get a PC
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Were talking new Gen consoles at launch here
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah they just are glorified mid range PCs these days
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    The age of home consoles has passed, they got assimilated
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They still serve a purpose for people that don't want to dive deep into it and just buy something that works
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think the PS3 was the last console that was custom and felt at least slightly home console to me, although the constant updates pissed me off to no end.... "I got a day off from work let's play some games..." Well maybe after the hour long firmware update.... Shit the game needs an hour long update too??
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Microsofts giving us options the other two should've followed with tbh not everyone is going to give a damn about 4k 120fps
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah I think they should have focused on 1440P and let the TVs handle upscale duty
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    My 4K TV admittedly is a higher end one turns 1080P into 4K nicely
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Og switch should've released with 1440p and then release with a cheaper 720p panel at the end
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Switch Ghetto Edition lol
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Screw a lite they missed an opportunity to sell the screen
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think all these retro consoles and Pi owe a large part of their market to home consoles being so expensive and the collectors driving up old consoles to the sky.
  • Faust03 @ Faust03:
    switch 2 will only have 3 games and will be the second coming of the virtual boy
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Nah if you're thinking switch 2 vr headset they have enough of a blueprint for specs to be decent Mario in full room scale would be cool some vr headsets already did demo of smb3 with a apple vr iirc
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Augmented reality peach dating sim would sell a few copies
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
