I have Sonic Mania. I do love the second boss, which is just a round of Puyo Puyo/Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine. I didn't get very far in the game, though. Just not as big of a Sonic fan. Are you going to see the live action movie?
I remember people talking about this game, but I never played it.
I thought about reviewing Kentucky Route Zero but I decided to review another Annapurna game instead: Wattam.
Smash on 3DS is quite good. I do like the Wii U version slightly better mainly because of graphics, but the 3DS version is no slouch.
I have to renew my ID this year as well because in Texas we have to have these star things on IDs and driver's licenses to make them official, so I have to get my original birth certificate and possibly another form of ID and take half a day or more off of work to sit at the DMV. I'd complain about all the hoops I have to go through for this, but if I did I'd sound politically incorrect so I think I'll just keep my mouth shut about that.
I have that Art and Artifacts book, too, as well as Hyrule Historia.

I never played this on the SNES, but I always wanted to. Looked really good. But my movie rental place either didn't have it or it was always out. Can't remember. But I wasn't about to pay full price for it. I did play it years later on the Wii Virtual Console and it was pretty good. Neat music and graphics.
I'm not really big into strategy games, but I did give this one a try. I got it for Christmas the year it came out. While I didn't finish it, I could tell it was a quality game.
I passed on reviewing this one. Didn't seem like a good fit for me.
Here's the games on your list that I like. So you should play them first. :)
Pac-Man Championship Edition DX
Okami
Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword
Viewtiful Joe
Paper Mario
As far as Paper Mario games go, the best one is the GameCube sequel: The Thousand Year Door.
