Happy Valentine’s Day, everybody!  I got you all Valentine presents!  New game reviews from the site I write for!  Just what you always wanted, right?  Well, at any rate, I hope you get to click on the links and read the articles, and maybe post a comment or two.  I’d appreciate it.  In particular, check out my PAX South write-ups.  I went to PAX South in San Antonio, TX the weekend before last, and I took a lot of pictures.  And stay tuned to the end of this blog for some Valentine’s Day fun, too.  Thanks for reading!

Well, Super Bowl 50 has come and gone, and like most years, I didn’t really care about either team.  But I’ve always liked Super Bowl commercials, and I just like commercials in general.  Sometimes they’re even better than the show they’re advertising.  I know, I’m weird like that.  And it’s always been a tradition of mine to write a blog about my favorites, so here is this year’s. 

The newest game in the Mario & Luigi RPG series just came out on the 3DS: Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam.  It’s a crossover title between Mario & Luigi and the other popular Mario RPG series: Paper Mario.  In honor of that, here is a blog where I rank every Mario RPG game in a top ten list (granted there’s only been ten of them, so, yeah). 

Hey folks, got another batch of game reviews I’ve written lately over at GamerDad.com.  Please click on the links and maybe even post a comment or two here or there, I’d really appreciate it.  Also, pretty soon I’ll be heading out for PAX South again, so please keep me in your thoughts and prayers that I have a safe trip there and back.  OK, on to the reviews!

Animal Crossing: Amiibo Festival is a Wii U game that came out late last year.  It’s a video board game featuring Animal Crossing characters, and you use Animal Crossing Amiibo figures to play it.  You must scan them on the Wii U gamepad to roll dice, save your individual progress, heck; you can’t even start the game without first scanning an Amiibo.  But there is a little more to it than that.  Along with the board game, there is a selection of eight mini-games you can unlock that use the Animal Crossing Amiibo cards that are primarily used in Happy Home Designer.  I haven’t read too many reviews online that go over these games in detail, so I’ll do that now since I like covering mini-games.

Well we’re into 2016 now, and with the 2015 Game of the Year stuff out of the way, it’s time to look forward to games that will be coming out this year!  So here’s a list of games that I’m personally looking forward to.  Now this isn’t a full list, since some stuff hasn’t even been announced yet since it’s so early.  And my list does tend to lean toward the Nintendo side, because I don’t have a PS4 or Xbox One yet.  But one of the things I’ll be looking forward to is finding out if those systems will have more games that interest me this year.  It could very well happen, you never know!  Well, at any rate, here are some games I’m looking forward to in 2016!

Can you believe that 2015 is already over?  What I like to do around this time is write about the best games of the past year.  Keep in mind that no outside opinions went into the making of this list.  It’s just my own picks.  And if a game is missing from my list, it either didn’t appeal to me as much, or I just simply haven’t played it yet.  Can’t play all the games out there, you know!  Plus I do apologize if this list leans toward the Nintendo side.  I don’t have an Xbox One or PS4 yet, so you’ll just have to deal with it.  So with that out of the way, welcome to my Best Games of 2015 Awards Show!

Happy New Year!  This will be my last blog of 2015.  So what better way to celebrate than with some more game reviews that I’ve recently posted at GamerDad.com!  Please click on the links and read as many as you can and maybe even post a comment or two.  I’d really appreciate it.  Thanks so much for your support this past year.  Let’s begin!

Usually at the end of summer, I’ll write a blog about the movies I saw during the past few months, as I see a lot of movies during that time.  It’s pretty rare for me to see a bunch of movies any other time of the year, but this Fall and Winter I did.  So I decided to write a little blog about what I saw, just for fun.  I’ll try to keep the spoilers to a minimum, but just in case something slips out, you’ve been warned!

Merry Christmas!  It’s time for me to do what I always do on my blog this time of year: my Pretend Christmas Present Party!  Here’s how it works.  In the comments section, give me a pretend Christmas present.  It can be anything you want!  It’s the thought that counts…literally!  And in return, I’ll reply with a pretend Christmas gift for you!  It’s fun when it’s fun!  And as a special Christmas bonus, I’ve got extra presents for all of you: more game reviews that I’ve written recently on GamerDad.com!  Please read as many as you can and maybe even post a comment or two!  I’d really appreciate it!  I could certainly use some cheering up since I don’t have a job right now and this year kind of sucked at times.
