I'd rather play games, not make them.

I've always been fascinated by Xevious for some reason. Not sure why. I know i've told you the story on how I used a bunch of dot matrix printer paper to make a Xevious map so I could play 'pretend' Xevious as a kid. In Japan, Xevious even has a large backstory with novels and everything!
Too bad you don't have Xevious 3D/G+. It had all the Xevious games up to that point, including Xevious Arrangement, which hasn't had another home port since. The only Xevious game I haven't played is Solavou. It's a 3-D arcade game that uses the same engine as StarBlade.
While I like Final Fantasy 6 just a teeny tiny bit more in the gameplay department, Chrono Trigger is still the pinnacle of SNES RPGs. It has one of the best stories in a video game ever, graphics that really reflect the art style of the character desinger, and revolutionary for the time features like New Game+.
My brother Jeff loved to watch me play this game. He called it Chwono Twigger. On our second playthrough, he made me name the characters after people he knew. So Chrono become Jeff, I think he named Frog after me, etc. When it came time to name the time machine, he only knew my friend's big gray truck, so we called the time machine "Truck" instead of Epoch. That made for some really funny lines.
Yeah I don't like hard games either. Except when I do. Like Mega Man, for instance.
Activision Anthology is one of the best game collections out there. It even rivals the Namco Museums!
I've beaten all those games. Wind Waker is my favorite of the three. I like Skyward Sword even though a lot of people didn't. I didnt like Twilight Princess as much when i first played it on the Wii, but I liked it MUCH better on the Wii U HD remake.
That translation book sounds hilarious.
So Kirby's Dream Course is actually the Kirby game that turned me into a fan. I've always been a big supporter of HAL, but when the first Kirby game came out, I didn't get it because I didn't want to spend full price on a game I could beat in an hour. But when I got the SNES, it came with a poster of upcoming games, and one of them was Special Tee Shot. It looked like a cross between mini golf and Marble Madness, two things I like, so I kept my eye on it. Eventually the game turned into Kirby's Dream Course, so I rented it once and was hooked. I bought it soon after and played every Kirby game before and after that ever since. Oh, and I beat Kirby's Dream Course, too, so I don't think it's THAT hard.
Smash games are always great. I didn't give it my GOTY award when it came out, though, because it's pretty much the same game as the Wii U version, just more of it. And I was more impressed with Labo.
As much as you play and talk about Minecraft, I'm surprised it's not on your list.
I can't think of a list of 40 games I like. I just have five: 1. Pac-Man, 2. Final Fantasy 6, 3. Animal Crossing GameCube, 4. Super Mario Kart (SNES), 5. Namco Museums vol. 1 to 5 (PSOne)
