June is a tough month to swallow, a lot of pre-purchasing for the rest of the year. Unexpectedly bought the dragon quest games on 3DS which was hard to find cheap. Switch online voucher covers Mario Maker 2 and Animal Crossing when it comes out next year.

I have one more purchase coming up at the end of June (Mario Maker 2), so I'm saving my update until then, but yeah, I echo that sentiment. This month is going to be my biggest in recent memory, even beating March 2017 when I bought the Switch. :cry:

Bringing down the spend of the Fire Emblem: Three Houses (Collector’s Edition) a bit by trading in Ys VIII, one of the games I did get pretty far but not quite finished.

Update: Also traded in Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu!

Fire Emblem: Three Houses CE [26 July]: $54.09 (was $129.99) [-75.90 trade, including loyalties]

I’ve been waiting for the sun to come up. Waiting for the showers to stop. Waiting for the penny to drop. One time. And I’ve been standing in a cloud of plans. Standing on the shifting sands. Hoping for an open hand. One time.
