Nintendo Switch lite - Aground - Survival Crafting Mining Building - gameplay

Nintendo Switch with Neon Blue and Neon Red Joy‑Con - HAC-001(-01)

Hey guys,

Check it out!

I've talked about indie and free-to-play mobile games coming to the Nintendo Switch. And, they keep coming. Yesterday, I get the chance to download and play the game Aground (eShop). An interesting survival/mining/crafting 2D Rpg game and I must say, I quite enjoy playing it on my Nintendo Switch lite.

Frankly, I don't play this kind of game much. As I prefer racing and fps shooter game. It's still fun though. And being able to play it on the go is why I like my Switch lite so much. You can play, saved, stop and then play again. Just like playing a mobile game only better because there's a proper controller.

Talking about the proper controller, you can quickly learn which buttons to use as the game will show the icon to guide you. I read that the game dev didn't want an open world type of survival game and they prefer to let the player focus on mining, crafting tools, and building.

That's why I felt like you're not wasting time and can quickly build and grow your own community. There's a little bit of action as wild boars will come and attack you. Playing the game, I realized that players will be spending hours on it as there seems so much to do and managed.

One thing I notice is how relaxing the game music is. There's been a few games that include a music player that gamers can listen to on their Nintendo Switch. As there's no real music player on the Switch that you can listen to your own music, 

I don't know why Nintendo doesn't have a music or video player. They have it on the 3DS. In fact, the Switch has a much better screen and probably sound. Besides gaming, I use my switch lite to watch youtube and listen to music before I sleep.

This game isn't actually new. It's also available on other platforms. Personally, for me, it really fits playing on a Nintendo Switch or in my case the Nintendo Switch lite. You don't need big storage to install this game and I think it's pretty light on the battery, so you'll be able to play for longer hours.

This kind of game can be pretty addictive. As you're always mining, crafting, and building. You'll be fighting monsters and soon you'll even be able to build spaceships and fly out to space. Yup, don't let the simple 2D graphics fool you. This game is much much more than your simple mobile game.

The game dev also said that Aground kinda is like the text-based game, A Dark Room. Which, I also play. I like text-based games and Aground has a little bit of that. Like I keep saying, this kind of game really fits into the Nintendo Switch.

Being able to play this game on the go like mobile gaming. Only that, you have a better playing experience because of the easier and much better control with a real game controller. I can't stress how much better the Switch lite is for gaming than a mobile phone.

Check out some of the official graphics below:

You can watch my Aground gameplay on my youtube channel here!

The game will only be able to be played on Feb 11, 2021. But, you can add it to your wish list now!

Click here to visit the Aground eShop page. Definitely, one of my favorite survival, an adventure game to be played on my Nintendo Switch lite. Play it any time and anywhere!

Why I'm Not Getting the PS5 or Xbox Series X - Yet

Xbox Series X

Hey guys,

Check it out!

Have you checked out the few top YouTubers that got their hands on the Xbox Series X, S, and PS5, doing their unboxing videos? I must say, I'm a little jealous. Ok, I'm feeling envious and jealous! At the same time, I'm feeling, meh!

Yeah, it's all new and dandy with the latest specs. While Xbox Series X/S design is simple and kinda Zen, although, they could go for much smaller and slimmer. The PS5 is like something from the future. See that I said, "future". Because we're still not advance yet. In terms of technology and the way we live or do things.



Xbox Series X

• Introducing Xbox Series X, the fastest, most powerful Xbox ever. Play thousands of titles from four generations of consoles-all games look and play best on Xbox Series X.
• Experience next-gen speed and performance with the Xbox velocity architecture, powered by a custom SSD and integrated software.
• Play thousands of games from four generations of Xbox with Backward compatibility, including optimized titles at launch.
• Download and play over 100 high-quality games, including all-new Xbox Game Studios titles like Halo Infinite the day they release, with Xbox Game Pass ultimate (membership sold separately).
• Xbox Smart delivery ensures you play the best available version of your game no matter which Console you're playing on.

Xbox Series S

• Access your favorite entertainment through apps like YouTube, Netflix, and more
• Enjoy over 100 games right out of the box with a 1 month Xbox Game Pass trial
• Watch 4K Blu-ray movies and stream 4K video on Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, Microsoft Movies & TV, and more
• Play with friends and family near and far—sitting together on the sofa or around the world on Xbox Live, the fastest, most reliable gaming network
• Xbox One games and accessories work together

At the moment, I still have my Xbox One S Gear of War edition. I haven't been playing games on it for a couple of months now since my trial version of the Xbox Game Pass or was it Live Gold ended. This is part of the reason why I hate the gaming world today. 

I also stop buying games when they have all these confusing versions of the games. You can buy games that include game pass or live gold. And, even if you have subscriptions, you still have to buy new games when they come out.



PlayStation 5 Console

• Lightning Speed - Harness the power of a custom CPU, GPU, and SSD with Integrated I/O that rewrite the rules of what a PlayStation console can do.
• Stunning Games - Marvel at incredible graphics and experience new PS5 features.
• Breathtaking Immersion - Discover a deeper gaming experience with support for haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and 3D Audio technology.

Of course, Sony Playstation has the same deal too. Makes you more confused about which one to choose. By the way, the PlayStation 5 also has a digital version. Most gamers today prefer buying games via the system online store.

Gone are the good old days when you go to your local game store to get the physical version. They'll sometimes have cool offers with posters or special editions. I don't see the point of buying a physical version if the only thing you're gonna get is the game disc or cartridge.

I'm not saying I dislike buying the digital version of the games. In fact, I bought so many games on the Nintendo Switch stores which are always having good deals. I'm running out of storage. Even though, I just bought a 512GB MicroSD card.

If you're wondering what does a Nintendo Switch have to do with the latest Xbox Series X/S and PS5? Well, I'm gaming more on it than I ever will with either the Xbox or Playstation. Well, my Playstation 3 died on me a couple of years back. That's why I'll probably get the PS5 later on, if ever.



Nintendo Switch Lite - Gray

Owning the Nintendo Switch lite right now, makes me realized, I'll be using it more than the Xbox X Series or a PS5. Simply because it is more accessible and flexible. Turning on both of the consoles is a hassle. I might turn it on once in a while to enjoy the advanced graphics and play games on the big screen Tv.

In the end, it really depends on your own preferential. Some like to sit down and enjoy playing their games for hours on their console. Some like me prefer playing on their handheld whenever and wherever we go. Especially, if you travel or move around a lot.

To play a console game, you need to set a time to play it. Playing on a portable console, you play anywhere and anytime you want. It's always with you. Just like playing mobile games. Only, the Nintendo Switch has 'real' games. Not games that need an internet connection or full of advertisements!

Yup, I'm not getting the PS5 or Xbox Series X, yet. But, I'll definitely get the latest Nintendo Switch if ever they're coming up with a more advanced version. Meanwhile, I'll enjoy playing games more on my portable game console. That's for sure!

Mario Kart Live vs Raspberry pi Smart Robot

Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit -Mario Set - Nintendo Switch Mario Set Edition

Hey guys,

Check it out!

So, the Nintendo Mario Kart live is available now. You can get it here (Amazon). Like, I've said in several posts ago, I've wanted this type of thing from Nintendo. It already has a screen and controllers. Would be fun to be able to connect toys to it.

Although, I was wishing being able to pair it with my Raspberry pi smart robot. I'm not sure if you can actually already do that after hacking your Switch. You can install Linux distro like Debian and use python to control your raspberry pi.

I've always thought, the Nintendo Switch can be more than just a portable gaming console. It's great for education and being able to connect to a Raspberry pi smart robot will be way cool. Of course, Nintendo prefers making their own toys for people to buy.

I won't be surprised if Mario Drone is out next. Would be another added bonus to fly around your drone and being able to record views or like Mario Kart, racing with your friends. They can even do race events for both of them.

The difference between a Mario Kart live and Raspberry pi is that you can also use the Pi as a computer. You can buy parts for your smart robot or drone and learn to code with python. You can also learn coding with SmileBASIC 4 and FUZE 4 on your Nintendo Switch too.

Someone out there already able to transfer files using smilebasic 4 and creating an emulator. I was already wondering if you can use smilebasic 4 to somehow connect to your raspberry pi or Arduino. That would be way cool!

I was also hoping the 'makers' would come out with something that can be connected and use together with the Nintendo Switch. The Mario Kart live already proves that the Nintendo Switch can be used more than just a gaming console.

I'm surprised that they (the makers) didn't think of this. Or probably did. I wouldn't know what's going on behind closed doors. I'm just saying, or keep saying, how great the Switch is. I can imagine, someone hacking (a driverless car) using their Nintendo Switch and control it with the controllers. I'm not saying people should do it though.

I think what's so great about the Nintendo Switch is the design. Make for portability. Even then, to me, the Switch lite is more portable and flexible because it's around an inch smaller. Everyone has their own preferences of which one is better of course.

If you want to make a Windows 10, portable gaming console, follow this same design. You can even make a raspberry pi with a Linux distro portable computer. There are already many mobile phone Bluetooth controller that you can just fix on it.

You might want to check out the windows 10, portable gaming console above. Which also comes with a controller. A little pricey. But, I hope, it'll become more powerful in the future. Maybe, using AMD Ryzen CPU & GPU.

The design isn't that bad, but the controller a little weird. I also don't like the mini laptop butt coming out at the back but that's for the cooling system. I like how the ram and storage can be much bigger. With STEAM installed, you can game and use it like any other normal computer.

In the future, portability is King!

Ok, maybe, when the computer is in-plant in you, portability will become another matter.
