This week, to help keep the teenager occupied with most of her summer plans cancelled, we bought ‘Animal Crossing: New Horizon’, which might have necessitated the purchase of a Switch upon which to play it. I’m reminded of twenty years ago, when I visited the Wal-Mart at midnight to pick up an N64 and a copy of ‘Wrestlemania 2000″, which kickstarted my purchase a a new video game each year to keep up with wrestling rosters. Either way, the constant high-pitched mutterings haven’t driven me around the bend (yet), but it did spur today’s eighth-gen query…
The MS-QOTD (pronounced, as always, “misquoted”) picked up ‘Spider-Man‘ for the PS4 not so long ago, but that’s the last thing I purchased, asking: What’s the last new video game you bought?

Two games recently at the same time: Super Robot Wars V and Nier Automata.
Last physical game.. My memory doesn’t go back that far. Maybe Dragon Age.
Digital copy, maybe Divinity: Original Sin.
Digital or corporeal, I’d say it’s still a game.
Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition on Switch. Last Friday.
