I'm waiting for my copy of Game Builder Garage to come in the mail.

I named Nintendo Labo my GOTY for that year it was released.

Also, WarioWare D.I.Y. was my GOTY for 2010.  I may have already said this to you, but back when that game was new, Nintendo held contests where people could send in games they made, and Nintendo would feature winners on their game page for everyone to download.  Well I won one of those contests with my stupid game!  I wrote an article about it here:

Believe it or not, I've never played an Everybody's Golf game!  I know one of them also let you play as Spyro the Dragon!  Wouldn't it be cool to play a golf game with other Sony characters?  And instead of hitting a golf ball, you would hit one of the Loco Roco as a ball?

Super Mario Bros. 3 deserves all the praise it gets.  But you know what?  Personally, it's not my favorite.  I don't hate it or anything, but I actually like Mario 2 more than Mario 3.  I know, sacriledge, right?  I just wasn't as big of a fan of the slippy slidey controls and the super short levels of 3.  But the power-ups sure were awesome and this was the game that introduced the Koopalings, who I think are cool.  Really my favorite Mario game is either Super Mario World or Yoshi's Island, depending on my mood.

Did you know that some of the early Everybody's Golf games were done by Camelot, the same folks who do a lot of the Mario Golf games?

Yeah a lot of games back then made the game look awesome on the box.  One of the reasons why I'm not a PC gamer is that it's not always clear if the game you just bought will work on your PC.  When I buy a game, I want it to work!

Seven Sirens is most like a "Metroidvania" title with one big maze to explore.  Still not my favorite, but they did bring back the sprite based graphics and it's still a heck of a lot of fun.  It even has animated cutscenes and the opening intro is done by Gainax/Trigger.  They did another one of my favorite opening cutscenes for Namco X Capcom.  Anyway, just makes me want a Shantae cartoon! :)  Here's my review:

I wonder if they were trying to make fun of Lee Travino's Fighting Golf?

I've never played the Golden Sun games.  I played a TON of GBA games and there were so many I missed out on!  Just can't play 'em all!

Yeah Half Genie Hero's not my favorite, but there hasn't been a bad Shantae game yet!  I really like the original and PIrate's Curse.

Only games I can think of right now for that time period is 1942 and 1943.  To this day, 1943 is one of my favorite shooters.

Aw too bad you don't have a SNES Mini.  I love that thing.  I named it my GOTY when it came out.  But then, the SNES is my top favorite console of all time.
