Happy New Year!  I’m glad 2020 is over, but just because it’s a new year, that doesn’t mean the problems of last year are going away.  We’ll still have to deal with COVID for the majority of this year, too, at least.  Then there’s my mom’s breast cancer surgery this month (keep praying, please).  There are other problems, too, but I won’t go into those because I stay away from talking about politics on this blog.  But at least we made it through the year, so to celebrate, here’s some more game reviews I’ve written recently over at GamerDad.com.  Please click on the links and read as many as you can, and maybe even post a ‘like’ or comment or two.  I’d appreciate it.  OK let’s begin!

WORST.  YEAR.   EVER.  I think we can all agree that 2020 has been one of the worst years in our lifetime, what with the Coronavirus, quarantines, riots and looting, politics, and much more.  And it doesn’t seem to be getting any better, as I just found out my mom has breast cancer (keep us in your prayers).  Some days I wonder if we’ll EVER get through this.  2020 can just suck it!  But at least we’ve had some good video games come out to help keep our minds off of this dumpster fire of a year.  So here’s my Best Games of 2020 Awards Show! But keep in mind that this is my list and my picks only, no outside opinions and whatnot.  And if a game isn’t on my list, it either just didn’t appeal to me or I haven’t played it yet.  Can’t play ‘em all, you know!  But with that out of the way, let’s take a look at my picks.

Merry Christmas everybody!  We’re going to continue my tradition of having a pretend Christmas present party on my blog.  Here’s how it works.  In the comments section, you give me a pretend Christmas present.  It can be anything you want.  It won’t cost anything, and it’s the thought that counts…literally!  Then I’ll give you a pretend Christmas present when I reply.  It’s fun when it it’s fun.  And I’ve got some more Christmas presents for you all, too!  More recent game reviews I’ve written over at GamerDad.com.  Just what you’ve always wanted!  Please click on the links and read as many as you can and maybe even post a ‘like’ or comment or two.  I’d appreciate it.

I love video game collections and compilations and writing blogs about them.  But you know who doesn’t do video game collections very much?  Nintendo!  So Super Mario 3-D All-Stars is a pretty big deal.  Or is it?  Well we’ll take a look at that as well as the games in this set.  Plus a few bonuses.  So as Mario would say, “Let’s-a go!”

I’ve cooked up a feast of game reviews for you all to read over at GamerDad.com!  Please click on the links and read as many as you can and maybe even post a ‘like’ or comment or two.  I’d really appreciate it.  After reading all of these, you should have nice, fat, full tummies afterwards!  Bon Appetit!

Of all of Nintendo’s game series, the Paper Mario titles have probably had the most ups and downs.  On one hand, you have what many consider to be one of the best RPGs ever made!  And on the other end, you have what others, including myself, believe to be one of Nintendo’s worst games!  Ouch!  The newest game in the series, Paper Mario: The Origami King, came out earlier this year, so I thought it might be fun to rank them.

Happy Halloween!  I’ve got some treats for you all, and no tricks!  More spooky game reviews I’ve recently written over at GamerDad.com!  Well, not very many of them are scary, I write for a family friendly video game site for parents after all.  But please go ahead and read as many reviews as you can, and maybe even post a comment or two.  I’d appreciate it.  OK, let’s begin!

A few months ago, we got a couple of downloadable only collections of Namco NES and Famicom games.  I even wrote about them, which you can read here.  But did you know that in Japan, they got a physical copy of the game on the Switch, and that it had different games and a new interface?  I actually imported this game because it was only 30 bucks, which isn’t bad for an import title.  So let’s take a look at this collection and what makes it different from the ones we got in the US!

Got another batch of game reviews I’ve recently written over at GameDad.com, including my coverage of the first ever PAX Online.  Yeah, don’t expect much.  But please read it anyway along with my other reviews, and maybe post a ‘like’ or comment or two.  I’d really appreciate it.  OK let’s begin!

Recently, Netflix launched High Score, a new documentary series on the history of video games.  I thought it was entertaining enough that I wanted to discuss and review it here on this blog.  So here’s my thoughts on the six episode series!
