I'll try to list my favorites, but I'm sure there's more.  I'm just going by the top of my head:

1990: Lemmings, Little Nemo: The Dream Master

1991: Super Mario World, Final Fantasy 4

1992: Super Mario Kart

1993: Secret of Mana

1994: Donkey Kong Country, Final Fantasy 6

1995: Chrono Trigger, Yoshi's Island

1996: Super Mario 64, Super Mario RPG (this was also the year I started writing game reviews at the newspaper)

1997: This is where things get fuzzy.  It's the year I got a PlayStation.  So I know there was FF7, but maybe also Klonoa and the Namco Museums.

1998: Banjo-Kazooie: Ocarina of Time

1999: Super Smash Bros.

The 80's may have had the best arcade games, but the 90s had the best console games.  My top two favorite consoles were from the 90's, the PlayStation and the SNES.

Since I'm not a big Castlevania fan, and I heard it was pretty hyper violent, I skipped out on this one.

Of course, this isn't the first time we've seen Castlevania in animated form.  Simon Belmont was in the old Captain N cartoon.  Is that going to be on your blog series?  Ha ha, I bet not!  It was pretty bad.  

They should make a more family friendly Castlevania cartoon starring Kid Dracula!

Oh yeah, Prof. Layton charactes are as charming as all get out.  I just didn't like the math problems.  Math is my only weakness.  If I ever turned evil, you'll know how to defeat me.

I have this.  It's really good.  Very Ghibli-esque.  I like how they implemented puzzles into the actual movie for you to figure out.  

I never got into the Prof. Layton games much, though.  Too many math story word problems.  The kind I hated in my math workbooks in school.  I do not like math.  I did play through the Prof. Layton vs. Phoenix Wright game, though.

I watched an episode of Cake Wars yesterday and thought of you because they were decorating Minecraft cakes.

Good to hear from you again.  Since you like mobile games, I recommend World Flipper.  It's a free to play pinball RPG!

Also, while not too much has changed with me, I do have a podcast now, and I'd like to encourage you to listen to it as well as read my blogs and reviews when you can.  Here's a link to my podcast page:

I rented it and watched it back in the day.  I think I fell asleep through it, though.  I was really tired.  I don't think I had to pay for the rental, though, because I knew people who worked at that video rental place back then and they let me rent a lot of stuff for free.

Yoshi's Island is a pretty challenging game towards the end!
