That's one way to get me to want to play a Forza game, put LEGOs in it.

I think the Ratchet and Clank games were some of the best 3-D platforming in the PS2 generation era.  No disrespect to Mega Man Legends, but the first three Ratchet and Clank games are what a 3-D Mega Man game should've been.  I haven't played the remake yet, but I did see the movie that I think it was based on.  The movie was OK, but it just made me want to play the old games again.

Speaking of Age of Empires, back when I first started writing for The Dallas Morning News, back in 1996, a relative of mine knew someone who just started their own company in Dallas making games.  This company was called Ensemble Studios, and they invited me to visit them to check out their new game they were working on.  It was called Age of Empires, and they hadn't even found a publisher yet, but they said, "We're thinking about Microsoft."  Smart move, I thought.  Anyway, once the games came out I reviewed a few of them at the newspaper.

I talked about Prof. Layton vs. Phoenix Wright in the first part of my blog, so I decided not to repeat it here.  If you get a chance, I'd like to please encourage you to read Part 1 as well!

I'm not going to get a Switch Lite either.  I like being able to play on my TV.  I'm with you, with a handheld game system or a cell phone, I have to put on reading glasses to see without straining too much.  I hate it when some companies make a game on the Switch and the font letters are teeny tiny.  They could change that easily.  Because of that, there are a few Switch games I can't play in handheld mode.

I really liked the GBA, too.  It was like a portable SNES!

Doraemon is a cute little anime and is an important part of anime history, too.  Some have even said Doraemon is Japan's Mickey Mouse!  

I got burnt out on Pokemon Shuffle eventually, too, but I played it way longer than I usually do those kinds of games.

Not really anyting in August I want to get right now.  I have a demo for the upcoming game Oninaki on my PS4, but I haven't played it yet.  But in September, Link's Awakening comes out!  EEEE!

So what are your opinions on the Story of Seasons game coming up that mixes Doraemon characters in it?  I've read that some people hate it, but I think it's hilarious.  I'm totally getting it!

If you get a chance, please do be sure and read my part 1 3DS blog as well!

Yeah sometimes timing is important on whether or not you play a game.

In my opinion, Bowser's Inside Story is the best of the Mario & Luigi games.  Although, when I played the remake on the 3DS, it didn't seem as good as I remember it on the DS.  But I still say ti's the best of them.  Not too bloated, and probably the closest thing we'll get to Bowser getting his own game.
