Hello all! The NSO completion dream continues for ctes, mzero, wallz, ZeroSignal and friends. If youd like to formally join the project, just say so =)

Heres the intro from thread 1:

On October 10, 2013, Torbjrn Thor Pedersen left his job, girlfriend, and family behind in Denmark to embark on an epic journey. His goal? To visit every country in the world without flying. Thor has just returned home, having completed his journey after a decade.

Hi, Im Wallz. I like video games and setting ambitious goals Ill almost certainly never follow through to completion. In honor of Thor Pedersens impressive feat, today I embark on a significantly more impressive quest to play and, where applicable, beat/complete every game offered via Nintendo Switch Online in the NA region. This includes replaying games Ive played before. My realistic goal is to at least spend some quality time playing every one of these titles. I suppose theres a chance some titles will get delisted, at which point those games will no longer count towards my goal.

I am hoping we have 4-5 more years before NSO is decommissioned which would mean getting through a couple titles a week on average should be a winning pace. This is under the seemingly safe assumption Nintendo will continue to drip feed a few titles a while longer before no new titles are added. I doubt I can sustain such a pace, especially since many older games will require a lot of practice, but lets hope this fools errand is fun nonetheless. Also, Im ignoring those SP versions of games, obviously.

Also feel free to chat here about games youre playing on NSO, relevant news, or just complain about the lack of GameCube and DS games.

NES games: 71
SNES games: 60
