I'm really excited to play all the retro stuff and Pokemon Snap on my new Switch (which I still haven't opened yet). Also: Pac-Man 99, Neo Geo Collection, Space Invaders collection (Lunar Rescue ftw), ActRaiser Renaisance. 

I don't really have a GotY game this year. I've jumped around a lot and played some stuff under most people's radar, free2play games, indie stuff, most I don't even recall at the moment. I am excited for The Gunk, which just came out. I'm hoping it's just like my last year's GotY game Journey to the Savage Planet. 

Of course, I remember now. I'm excited to try one I have already but maybe I don't have a game for it yet? I'll have to look into it. 

It was a fad but it lasted a good long while, 2011-2016... Okay, that's only 5 years. Lego Dimensions 2015-17. Disney Infinity 2013-16. Starlink in 2018 being the last of them. So, I guess then 2011 to 2018, that's 7 years. 

I got into Lego Dimensions for the Midway stuff. I still need to finish the main game though. There are a lot of really tiny pieces for those figures and whatnot. 

That's pretty cool. I'd love to see a picture of all those figures together. I have only a handful of amiibo figures. Do they work with Switch games at all? 

Oh my, thank you so much! I love it!

I'm still looking at the unopened box but I'll get to it soon. 

Yea, well, I have so much to check out on the system. 

I finally got one! I haven't had time to even open the box yet, but soon. 

Wish there was a Hallmark arcade cabinet ornament this year to add to my collection. SNES looks good though. 

Steel Assault looks like Metal Slug. 

Hava Jenga for Xmas. 

Yeah, I love it. Interesting tables and some history. I need the original box for their Williams Collection game. 

I always knew you could do either in Dishonored, it's just I was following the suggestions the game makes for doing things stealthily. I'm going to play it again sometime and brazenly run-and-gun it. haha.

Funny, I've only heard such high praise recently about God Hand. No one seemed to care much about God Hand for most of the time it's been out. I always thought it was just a quirky favorite of my friend and me that probably few others enjoyed or even noticed. The "greatest of all time" words I hear now sound funny to me. But, I guess that can happen where a game is mostly ignored at first and then is recognized later on. Either that or I just never paid attention to the reception in the press and elsewhere back in '09. 

I will say this, God Hand will stress your button fingers. So much so that my friend feels he can't play it anymore. I think it's possible to execute the moves gently, but it's hard to not mash and lean into it when you are fighting.
