Oh yeah, I remember this one on the classic collections.  That first person perspective turned me off.

I got this and the Joker amiibo and there will be an article about them up at GamerDad at the end of the month.

I remember when Sim City first came out on PC.  It was EVERYWHERE and I still remember the box art that looked like a weird steampunk Game Boy or whatever.  My friend had it on PC, and he'd bring in printouts of his city to show me, which I thought was pretty cool.

Later I rented it on the SNES to try it out for myself and I was surprised on how addicting it was.  Not enough to pay full price for, but I'm glad I got to try it.

MANY years later when the Wii first came out, one of the first Virtual Console games for it was Sim City!  I remembered how fun it was, and the price was reasonable enough so I downloaded it.  Plus I was curious how this whole Virtual Console thing worked.  I showed Sim City on Wii to my brother Jeff and he LOVED it.  After playing the SNES version on Wii, he immediate downloaded Sim City 3000 on his computer and he's been a fan of the series ever since.

PS: I like how Mr. Wright makes cameo appearances in Link's Awakening and Smash.  Also I think it's interesting how Will Wright came up for the idea for this game after having fun making cities in Raid on Bungeling Bay.

I imagine getting a Switch in the US right now is harder than importing a game from Japan.

I rented the A-Team movie and fell asleep during it.  But one of the actresses playing in it was very pretty, I thought.

I liked Epic Mickey and its sequel, but they weren't perfect.  I loved how they brought back Oswald, though.  One of my feathers in my game reviewing cap is getting to sit in a panel discussion with Warren Specter, the creator of the Epic Mickey games.

The main game I enjoyed in 2010 that got my GOTY was Wario Ware: D.I.Y. on the DS.  But I've bragged enough about how I won a game design contest for it, so I'll shut up about it now.

I reviewed the TG-16 Mini a while back.

I skipped out on the NEO GEO Mini.  Do you think it's worth getting?

That Carrion game makes me think of an old Genesis game called The Ooze.  You can play it on some of the classic collections.

Hey just wanted to let you know that I am getting to review WWE 2K Battlegrounds on PS4.  So I'll let you know how that goes.

That's a really good deal on LEGO Dimensions.  Such a good game.  Buying the starter pack was one of my best gaming decisions because I reviewed a TON of the add ons after that.

I found a Starlink toy at the dollar store the other day, but I didn't get it because it wasn't one of the characters I liked.  Can you guess which was my favorite?

Most VR games I can still play, even though I've been blind in my left eye since birth.  But I can't play Beat Saber.  It really requires you to use depth perception to see the blocks coming at you, and I just can't do that in the game quick enough.  Same reason why I can't catch in real life.

I had the opportunity to review this, but I passed on it.  Just didn't look interesting to me.  If you liked this game, you may want to try VA-11 HALL-A.  I reviewed it last year:
