Errands are done and now my knees are worse than ever. Looks like no gym again this week thanks to my crunchy bones. 🫠 Thank god I WFH 😅

Welcome to the family! I thought I'd treat myself to celebrate my first week at Nintendo Life. (Plus I had a CeX voucher burning in my pocket) Now to go and purchase some grown up stuff before I get stuck into Animal Crossing for the day. 🥰

Plur1bus eh? Ok I'll bite.

Happy Friday everyone! I hope you all have a lovely weekend (even if you have to work) and recharge. Unlike my character in ACNH, I won't be playing DnD but likely catching up with life stuff and playing some games or knitting. What are you up to this weekend?

I knew all that hoarding in Animal Crossing would come to good use... I have over 1k hotel tickets now. 🤣

Now that I have eaten my weight in noodles, I'm ready to roll some dice. Can't wait to get back to my group. 🥹

I am so overwhelmed by the warm response from the Nintendo Life community. Thank you so much for welcoming me with open arms! It's a big change and I'm ngl I've been NERVOUS. But here's to some amazing stuff ahead! Thank you everyone. 💜 Now on that note, I have a certain JRPG to play in bed. 😌

Hello Beautiful People.... It's Mai from Nintendo Life. 🥹 www.youtube.com/watch?v=39Ia...

So instead of Buri waking me up in the night, I somehow developed the talent of waking myself up almost every hour. On the upside, I can squeeze some Animal Crossing before I start work. 😝

Pray for me. I've stupidly decided to dismantle my desk area, work on the crappy cable management and set it up properly for the first time since setting up under these stairs a few years ago.... Why am I like this?

Happy Year of the Ebb everyone! 🥳 With our launch happening this Spring, you'll definitely want to add Esoteric Ebb to your wishlists to start of the year, won't you? Happy #wishlistwednesday to all celebrating! 🎉 store.steampowered.com/app/2057760/...

Almost the weekend and tomorrow is going to be busier than ever. I'm caught up with all my work but non-work related stuff is going to be full on tomorrow. 🫠

It's so nice that my cat is finally letting me have a lie-in this week. 🥹 Saying that, I'm pretty sure after posting this he'll decide to start waking me up at 5am again.

Lil snow beans. :3

Genuinely curious to see what mine is for 2025. 😅 I feel like I didn't play half as much as I hoped....it was a busy year outside of gaming for me sadly.

I've woken up feeling rested with a smidge of sleepy, ready to start the day right. Phone is now on focus mode, I have a spreadsheet to make (I love them), a cuppa to consume and my morning ritual I established yesterday. Brain puzzles and reading my new book. I can't wait!

Happy New Year beautiful people. Yes I brought the new year in bed playing Persona 5 Royal on my Switch 2. Perfect way to start the year.

If I forget to say later, happy new year beautiful people. I did a big post on Instagram already but lets just say 2025 was spiffing and I hope 2026 is even more spiffing. Here we goooooo!

No I'm not 368 years old.... I swear.

Andrew and I levelled up today. Sharing a birthday with him gets better every year. Time for our yearly tradition of coffee, shops, a takeaway and games. 🥰

I am spending my last day as a 35 year old in style. In my PJs (again), eating yellow sticker food and playing games I've neglected recently. 😅

I'm not the biggest fan of "New Years Resolutions". I prefer to have soft goals which will ultimately better my life. If I don't check them off? It's fine, no pressure. Having resolutions have always triggered the perfectionist in me which only results in chaos. 2026 is being kind to Mai again.

Nothing is more underwhelming than a tepid bath with undissolved bath salts after a long and achy day. 😮‍💨

Just a cheeky one today. It's Christmas eve after all. 😘

I am officially off work for the holidays! Time to lie back, sip tea and play my Switch. I can't get over how cute Morgana is in this outfit.

Who needs sleep when you have a softly snoring partner and a basal temperature of what feels like an oven? 🥲 To the living room I go...

I'll be there in a McJiffy. I'm a serious gamer I promise 🤣

I feel like Buri saw this post and considered it a challenge....this morning he woke me up at 5am. 🥲

For our final festive giveaway, we've got a Raw Fury Master Key up for grabs. 🗝️ The key unlocks all current and upcoming titles... So trust us when we say this one's a cracker!🎁 How to Enter: 🫂Follow us! ♻️Repost this! Contest ends on New Years Day at 10am GMT! Good luck!

Looks like my Switch 2 collection will actually grow, potentially to my Switch 1 collection. Cyberpunk and Legends Z-A were getting lonely.

Who needs sleep or an alarm clock when you have a cat?

Mince Pies are considered as part of your 5 a-day right?

I LOVE Cult of the Lamb so I'm super excited for this! 🐑

Trading a Slowpoke for a Galarian Slowpoke....then discovering it's called Spicy and going full gremlin mode.

My recent trinity of video games are as follows. Yeehawing Battling mons Placing blocka

How is my day looking? Well if we ignore the cat shenanigans in the early hours, it's looking swell. Got graphics to do and then another community one shot tonight for work. Pretty damn good day if you ask me.

I've never understood the argument that being LGBTQ+ is a choice, because: 1. It very obviously isn't 2. Even if it was, so what?

Welcome back old friend. 🥹

I wish my brain would turn on. I've got lore to write. 😩

Wallet! Where are you going! Oh, you're buying games.... That's fine then. 👛

Aviv brought so many of my characters to life over on @questjunkies.bsky.social. I still can't get over how she captured their essences so easily. 🥰

I've tried cola throat lozenges but how about irn bru? I am so ready.

If you're a fan of all things shiny, perhaps you might roll a Cleric with high DEXTERITY #indiegames

Never in my life did I think I'd be getting paid to create chaos.

I looked sleepy but my hair was kinda cute today. Not a bad look I think.

accurate

Come and join Petunia in the upcoming Esoteric Ebb one shots! Should be a cracking time babyyyyy

We don't get much natural light in the house anyway but this time of year I can't help but feel like this is me during my work day.....(And Buri bugging me) 😂

NGL I've been pretty knackered recently. The last two weeks have been draining like nobody's business. I'm hoping it's just a blip and I'll be back in fighting form soon. Saying that... I've been able to catch up on my knitting/crochet and telly lately 🤣

I would die for Ost. I just love Kobolds in general 😭
