Is it possible to do a Professor Oak Challenge in a game where Oak himself is still a half century from being born?

Prominent games we missed last week: Banjo-Kazooie getting added to Switch Online for Expansion Pack subscribers (for some reason), a trivia game literally endorsed by the publishing company that brought us For Dummies books. However, the real dummies are the people who propelled the North American release chart to a record 66 releases, which is why there was only one notable game from the shadowdrops.

This week's headliner, which some of you have already because the publisher never learns with European retail, is Pokemon Legends: Arceus - and the PokeMonster Hunter has made me surprisingly excited, if only the routes were more linear... Other titles of note for the West: Record of Lodoss War (which James discussed on RFN a few weeks back), strategy RPG Reverie Knights Tactics, the second title in the Gunvolt Chronicles side series from Inti Creates, and... a dating sim idle game which is free to start called Crush Crush.

In Japan, it's the monthly visual novel week alongside a new Nippon Ichi RPG which apparently combines dungeon crawling and food prep, though it's also probably getting buried by God.
