A gaming sub free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I’ll never forget my first experience with the series. Mind you this was before the constant bombardment of footage from the internet and media. I recognized the box and read some good things in magazines about how insane the game was, and since it was a budget title figured what do I have to lose? Booting up for the first time and watching the intro video was sublime. It’s been one of my favorite series ever since.
I took a break from TOTK to get into We Love Katamari Reroll, and I’d rank it up there among the best games on Switch. Both it and the first rank high amongst my favorite Switch games and are one of the most unique games around.
In the same vein as Katamari, though nowhere near as good, is Donut County. It usually goes on sale for like $3 and is worth the price just for the experience. Fits basically if Katamari was a hole and instead of the prince you have a raccoon that expands when things fall into the hole. Don’t go in expecting greatness but it’s solid and off kilter, can scratch the itch for something like Katamari if you’ve already experienced them all.
Thanks I’ve heard of the game but didn’t Obie anything about it. It sounds like something I worked enjoy😁
Seconding Donut County for exactly this. it's really obviously made for someone wanting a fun Katamari style romp, and it accomplishes that very nicely. It's not as good, but it is good.
Way better than playing superliminal hoping for a portal-style experience, let me tell ya.
