For me, the first one was definitely an addiction. I would keep a list of level ideas, then start plotting them out, then I'd work on them. For me, the creating aspect was the biggest draw.
I know for others, they loved playing all the levels that were created.
I honestly don't remember what it was that finally pulled me out of the addiction. I don't know if I ran out of ideas or if another game came along that took my attention away.
One thing I'm glad about this time is that all of the creation tools will be available from the beginning.

@sjmartin79 thank you so much for continuing to check out Costello Stone!
I know I'm the only Canadian who frequents these boards since @DarkDepths doesn't seem to be around often anymore, but Happy Canada Day from the frozen wasteland up north.
It's a solid 10 degrees up here.

The rest of summer video game wise is gonna be quite retro for me. I found a copy of Final Fantasy 1+2 Dawn of Souls for the GBA the other day. The Messenger just released it's free DLC campaign, Ion Fury (previously Ion Maiden) is launching in full in August, I still have to pick up Bloodstained, and Blazing Chrome just released.
Final Fantasy, not-Ninja Gaiden, not-Duke Nukem, not-Castlevania and not-Contra. Phew lads indeed.
Currently I'm playing Prey (not-System Shock) and I'm completely sold on it. I'm an idiot for sleeping on it so long considering I love System Shock and Arkane Studios, but so far it's a home run. Feels like it has been awhile since I'd be excited throughout the work day to come home and start playing a game again.
(Despite a lot of these games being similar or paying homage to other games, I mean it in good spirits about the whole "not" thing. This summer is gonna be, as the kids say, lit af)

Time was, the CT would've exploded at the reveal of new Nintendo hardware. How far our chatter has fallen.
(Also, Switch Pro might just be a myth.)

If I had younger kids that were gamers (maybe 12 or younger), I would get them a Switch Lite in a heartbeat. I truly think that's the demo they are going for most with this iteration.
I don't see me buying a new Switch until the Pro comes out, and I still think that is a possibility. I'd say that will be announced at e3 next year probably. And here's my huge guess as to what it will do: 1080p in handheld, higher in docked. Better battery. Larger internal memory to start.
Edit: though I do think I need new joycons. My right joycon has a drifting cursor. (I know, it's usually the left that is the problem.) I've found ways to temporarily fix the issue, but it gets annoying. May see if there are any sales during Prime Days.

May not be the Switch Pro everyone thinks will happen, but it's enough for me to jump on now. I still think I'm gonna wait for Link's Awakening before buying though. Probably will buy a second game: Mario Maker 2 if online is patched in, Mario Odyssey if not.
