Every Paper Mario game looks nice. Like I said, the only other game that pulls off that paper asthetic well is Tearaway. Man that was a great Vita game. PS4 version wasn't shabby either.

2014 was a pretty good year for me. I made a lot of money at my old job, enough to go on a trip to Disney World with my family that year. I even wrote about it at GamerDad.
My GOTY that year was Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. How could I not give it that award since it had Pac-Man, Mega Man, and Kirby in it!

I didn't really play Hang On in arcades as a kid, but boy I sure do remember seeing it everywhere. More specifically, I remember HEARING it everywhere. Seems like every arcade owner wanted to turn the volume up as high as they could for Hang On, so everywhere I went in the arcade, I could hear the title screen theme, "donnnnggggg, donnnnggggg, donnnnnggggg..." Only other arcade game back then I remember them having the volume up really high for was Punch Out, so after the title screen theme from Hang On, I would also hear "Bodyblow! Bodyblow!"

When I get off work today, I'm spending Halloween night playing Animal Crossing, doing the Halloween event stuff. I'm dressing up as a hot dog in the game. No trick or treaters tonight because of COVID, sadly.

I watched The Wind Rises in a theater, too. I sure do miss those.
2013 was a rough year because my grandmother on my dad's side passed away, but Animal Crossing: New Leaf came out that year and it helped me make memories with my family after the funeral, so that's why it won my GOTY that year. I played it with my cousin and her kids after the funeral and it was nice to be able to play games with my cosuins again like I used to. I'm sure our grandmother was happy to see that in Heaven.
