My dad loves jigsaw puzzles. He used to do them all the time. He can't do them right now, though, because his grandkids want to 'help' him by hiding pieces or seeing how far they can throw them.
I got to review a couple of those "Recharged" Atari remakes, but after a while they stopped responding to my emails requesting review copies. Oh well.
FF6 is my fav, too (one of my top five favorite games of all time really), but I started with FF4 because it's a quick play and I couldn't decide between playing it and FF6 first, so it was just a random coin toss kind of thing.
I reviewed Kirby Tilt N Tumble for The Dallas Morning News back in the day. I got a cool piece of swag for reviewing it, too: a Kirby kickball! I still have it on my dresser. Too bad we never got the GameCube sequel. They should make a new one for Switch!
Tatsunoko vs. Capcom was pretty neat. Too bad they took out the mini-games for the US release.
My dad loved Pilotwings on the SNES. I never had it on the N64, but I did have the 3DS one.
I wanted to play more of Crusade on Centy on my Genesis Mini 2, but I got distracted. I'd love to play Terranigma!
I got a physical copy of Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters for Christmas, so I'm playing through FF4 on it right now. That was really the first game that really got me into RPGs.
I think I have Sushi Striker on the Switch. I did not like the controls in Kid Icarus Uprising. I can't wait for the Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door remake on Switch! I just posted a blog about the games I'm looking forward to in the coming year!
I had an opportunity to review Air Twister, but I had too much on my plate at the time.
I played Ghost Trick on the DS so I didn't get the Switch one. I love the ending.
Super Mario Bros. Wonder is better than SMB3, but it doesn't beat out Super Mario World and Yoshi's Island to me. But then, I'm the weirdo who also like US Mario 2 more than Mario 3.
You already read my GOTY blog, but if I had to put them in top ten order, it would probaby look like this:
10.Puzzle Bobble Everybubble
9. F-Zero 99
8. WarioWare: Move It!
7. Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe
6. Metroid Prime Remastered
5. Super Mario Bros. Wonder
4. Sea of Stars
3. Detective Pikachu Returns
2. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
1. Super Mario RPG
I think the Astrosmash remake did a good job of adding new elements to keep it interesting, but still retaining the basic gameplay of the original. It's just simple fun.
I hear Dave the Diver is pretty good. I had the opportunity to review it, but I just had too much on my plate at the time.
I have Miitopia on the 3DS so I didn't get it on the Switch. I stopped playing Miitopia on the 3DS when they forced me to make all new Mii characters and start over from scratch at one point in the game. I was like, 'nah I'm not doing that.' As far as "Mii" games go, I think I'd rather have a Switch version of Tomadatchi Life.
I wish Nintendo would bring back NES Remix. Or maybe a sequel, like SNES Remix!
Yeah it looks very Aardman-like. I like how you can twist and snap their heads and necks around and they'll make funny noises and voices and when you do so.
I guess Excessive Trim would be a VERY small version of Destroy All Humans, and also a very bad one.
I liked the Astrosmash remake way more than the Shark! Shark! remake anyway. Which is the total opposite of how I feel about the original games.
Is it that Star Ocean: First Destination R? It's tempting, especially because it's on sale right now for 70 percent off. But I think I'd rather play the original with SNES graphics, not a remake. Plus, I got a physical copy of Final Fantasy: Pixel Remasters for Christmas and I think that'll keep me busy for a while!
I can perfectly understand why people would name Tears of the Kingdom their GOTY. It certainly was the game I put the most hours in this year.
I would like to play the very first Star Ocean on the Super Famicom, but with a (legal) English translation.
