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.

That's a strong vibration if it shakes itself off a table.  Also, if you put the controller down and are not playing, how is it still vibrating?  Is your Xbox haunted? :)

Dragon Quest Treasures looked kind of interesting.  I just don't have time to play everything out there, you know?

Ace Angler: Fishing Spirits is a good one.  It was one of my most played games last year.  Keep in mind that when you catch a fish, it doesn't automatically go to your aquarium.  You get money for catching fish, and you use that money on a giant gashapon machine to get a random fish.  It's one of the problems with the game that I talked about in my blog about it.

I gave the first Mario Rabbids game a try.  Didn't really like it, so I skipped out on the sequel.  I'm not big into strategy games anyway, but one way for me to at least try one is to do something weird like put Mario and Rabbids in the same game!

Kirby and the Forgotten Land was one of the best games of 2022.

Huh.  I didn't know the Xbox controllers were prone to that.  The Switch is BAD for that.  It happened to me twice.  One of the reasons why the Switch is not my favorite Nintendo console (nothing beats SNES).  Sadly, the Switch has most of what I want to play right now.

Yeah I enjoyed F-Zero 99 more than I thought I would.  It's always nice to see SNES games see some love.  Looking forward to your list!

It's really just Mega Man trying to be Pokemon with a card battle system and action thrown in.  I liked the first few back in the day and my brother Jeff LOVED them.

Well the Onechanbara games were always meant to be budget titles, so that's why they're not as good as Bayonetta.
