That's cool you got the Dark Crystal game on sale. As you know, I really liked it. If you get a chance, you should watch the series, too, if you have Netflix. It's very good.
Oh yeah, Double Dragon was definitely big when I was a kid, too. Heck, there was even a Double Dragon cartoon and live action movie (the movie is bad but fun in a B-movie sort of way). But I just didn't get into it like I did later beat em ups.
Bowie steals a baby in the movie, but he does take care of him better than the snotty girl main character does. He still scared Little Kid Cary, though. I knew the puppets were fake, but he was a real person!
Animal Crossing is what you want to play on the Switch if you want to do online. I don't know if the Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons games are online.
I may just stick with the Paper Mario series just to keep the blog focused. But who knows? It won't be until September before I write that blog because I want to give myself enough time to play Origami King long enough to form a good opinion on it.
My friend and I rented the Double Dragon NES games a few times when we were kids, but I didn't really get into beat 'em ups until Final Fight and TMNT came along.
The helicopter boss in Double Dragon Neon is hilarious. It tries to fly upside down to hit you with its blades.
I remember seeing Labyrinth in the theater. I wasn't scared by any of the puppets, but David Bowie scared me in that movie as a kid.
I remember Psikyo because it sounds kind of like 'psycho.'
If I had an Xbox One, or if Farm Together had cross platform play, or if I didn't have so many other games to play right now, I'd play it with you!
I wish you could get a Switch, too! I hate it that they're so hard to find now!
You know, Fortnite has a lot of interesting characters and such, it's just the gameplay isn't my cup of tea. I feel the same way about Overwatch and Team Fortress 2.
Streets of Rage 4 is very good! It won the award in my Arcade Classic Collection/Remake category, and there was a lot of competition there.
Paper Mario: The Origami KIng doesn't seem too bad so far, although I said that about Color Splash at first until tedium set in. It's still not the Paper Mario game anyone wants, but I'm still going to give it a chance. I didn't put it on this list, though, because it came out after July 1st, and that was my limit on games released halfway through the year. So maybe it'll show up on my list at the end of the year? I think I might write a blog ranking the Paper Mario games later on, in a month or two.
I guess if you liked those games it wasn't such a bad Direct, but I still think it could've been much better. I'm surprised you're not mad about what I said about Trials of Mana. :)
