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.
I would consider Mega Man 2 one of the top five best NES games. Even though I like MM3 just a little more, I can TOTALLY understand why someone would like 2 better. MM2 was the game that really got me into the franchise. I had rented the first game before, but I also rented Legacy of the Wizard alongside it so that won out at the time. But after I rented and beat MM2, I gave the original Mega Man another chance and beat it as well and I've been a fan ever since. Mega Man 2 also has one of my favorite video game songs of all time: Dr. Wily's Stage 1 theme. I actually have better memories playing Mega Man games on the NES over Mario ones. In fact, I'd have to say that I like Mega Man better than Mario, which is weird of me to say since I tend to gripe at super hard games. But regardless, that's how I feel in that case.
