Nintendo adding SNES games to their online service is very dangerous for me. :)

Yup.  I'm going to try and review it, or see if there is a physical copy available to buy.

So FF8 was significant for me, too, for the opposite reason.   It was the first FF game released in the US that I didn't have an interest in.  I appreciated the differences in FF7, but it was the differences I didn't like that they decided to focus on in FF8.  I played a demo of FF8 on Brave Fencer Musashi (which was a great game and I wish Square would revisit that one again).  After playing the FF8 demo, I decided I wasn't going to get it.  Just as well, too, since I was a poor college student at the time.  But my disinterest changed when FF9 came out.  Boy I loved that game!  That's what FF7 and 8 should've been for me.

On an unrelated topic, I played River City Girls at PAX and thought of you.

My copy of Collection of Mana should arrive at my house this Friday. I'm going to go straight to the third game!  I've played the other two to death already.

Thanks for reading!  Remember that even though I may say the game is for Switch, I'll also say in my review if it's for other consoles like PS4 as well.

I was born in the 70's, but I caught on to gaming early on.  My dad built our first TV and installed a Pong-like machine in it.  I didn't realize it was a game, though.  Just something you did on the TV when there was nothing else on. I was really young.

The first time I realized I was playing a video game was when I first played Pac-Man, but I did play a lot of 70's games like Fire Truck, Space Invaders, Shoot Away, foosball, and others.

Your description of Uncharted reminds me of the newest Tomb Raider movie.  The lady who played Lara Croft in that movie must've ate her spinach because she was climbing up a airplane that was falling down a waterfall with just one arm.  It was a bit ridiculous.  But it's just a movie.

Hallmark did Pac-Man and Galaga cabinet ornaments a few years ago.

Well they aren't releasing any more cabinets this year.  According to the catalog I have.  But maybe next year if they still have the license.

I dunno, Gabbuchi and Solo weren't too bad.  But yeah, nothing that'll be on my Game of the Year blog.  Last game I put on that list was Penguin Wars.

Thanks for reading!  See you all after PAX!
