I think I can still remember the games I picked as my GOTY for the first decade of the 2000s.  I'd recommend these games if you can play them.

2000: The Misadventures of Tron Bonne (PSOne)

2001: Super Smash Bros. Melee (GameCube)

2002: Animal Crossing (GameCube)

2003: WarioWare: Mega Microgame$ (GBA) This was also the year I started writing for GamerDad.com

2004: Katamari Damacy (PS2)

2005: Psychonauts (PS2)

2006: Okami (PS2)

2007: Super Mario Galaxy (Wii) I would've given it to Portal had I played it that year.

2008: Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Wii)

2009: Klonoa (Wii)

And those are my GOTY titles for that decade.

I didn't like this movie that much, but then, I'm not a big Sonic fan anyway.  I liked who showed up in the ending, though!  The Sonic movie was the last movie I saw in a theater before the pandemic hit, and I didn't see another movie in a theater until my recent viewing of Ghostbusters: Afterlife.

Renegade seemed to be pretty popular when I was a kid.  I saw it in a few arcades anyway.  I was never a big fan of it, but I love the history behind it and how it ties into Kunio and Double Dragon.  And aside from River City Ransom, if we didn't have Renegade, we also wouldn't have had Super Dodge Ball.  That was my all-time favorite sports game all the way up until when Wii Sports came along.

Here's my review of the Kunio-Kun and Double Dragon collection you mentioned:

I miss going to video game stores like that.  A long time ago, on the way to Austin for a concert, my friend and I stopped at a retro game store that was pretty cool.

Sorry you didn't get the job.  Hope something comes through soon.  Even though I have a job now, I'm working on finding a new one so I can make more money.  I don't see how people live these days!

I'm not a fan of Mortal Kombat so I won't be watching this one.  I will say that I did watch the very first MK movie from the 90's and for a video game movie from that time, it really wasn't THAT bad.  But that's about all I can say about Mortal Kombat.  I mean, I picked my three favorite characters by what color they wear.  And since my favorite color is green, my favorite MK characters are Reptile, Sonya Blade, and Jade.

When I was really little, my dad worked for Texas Instruments and Mostek, making chips for Atari cartridges.

I have to work on Black Friday.  Luckily I work in the plumbing section of a major hardware chain, so I probably won't have to deal with too many crowds since people usually don't buy toilets on Black Friday. :)

It actually follows the same plot almost exactly.  You visit a few more locations in the game that wouldn't fit as well with a action packed movie.  But I knew what was going to happen in the movie the whole way through because I had already played the game.  The game is pretty much Phoenix Wright for kids.

Yeah I heard about that WB Multi-versus game or whatever it's called.  I doubt Disney would do that with their characters because they are so picky about them.

Hey you know how you talk about the Arcade Archives games sometimes?  Well I just got one of them because it's a very significant game to me.  It's called Libble Rabble and I'll let you try and guess why it coming out on Arcade Archives is such a big deal.  At least to me anyway.
