I think they're just calling everyone Core Gamers, because I haven't touched my Switch in a couple of months. (I did get in some quality time with RF4 Special and Story of Seasons, but nobody's going to call me hardcore for those).

Animal Crossing
Paper Mario Origami King

I honestly don't know but it's probably from just booting things once or twice lmao

This is what not playing Splatoon 2 does to me.

Only other noteworthy stat is that April 22 was my most active day of the year, and yet April as a whole was my least active month of the year. I don't even know what happened on that day. Last year (when they gave your top 3 days) I could pinpoint what happened on each one of them.

Man even at 152 hours I was considered a core gamer yay

Alright, cool.

I bet at least 100 of them was idling while I was waiting to pop balloons.


More than I expected, but it was probably including NES/SNES games I played for like 5 minutes.


Boy, imagine if they turned Animal Crossing into a JRPG...


A whole $9!



---

Fire Emblem was my most played in 2019, too.

---

This was all trying to catch those fish leaving at the end of the month in Animal Crossing

this is a lot of good games

I played exactly 100 hours this year, which is nearly three times as much as the 34 total hours I played last year. I essentially bought a Switch for Odyssey and Mario Maker 2 and nothing has really grabbed me since that.

I essentially only played Pokemon, Tropical Freeze, and Three Houses this year, with a sprinkling of Mario Kart. My 5th most played game was Pokemon Home. I only play first party Nintendo stuff on the console and would rather play multiplatform games anywhere else.

Need more Xenoblade in your life

I am at 740 hours Getaway Gamer. Animal Crossing Xenoblade and Hades.

It appears it only counts days when you're connected to wifi because I'm credited for 0 days in August where I spent a lot of time playing in my summer house.
