Yeah normally I don't mind ports.  I may not rebuy them, but I don't mind them.  But I hate how they're re-releasing Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, a game I loved on the Wii U.  I don't want to rebuy the game again just for a few Odyssey levels.  Just make a freaking sequel, Nintendo!  

And also, I only enjoyed Hyrule Warriors as a co-op game, and it didn't take very long to beat that way.  So now that I'm not playing co-op games as much anymore, I don't think I want to rebuy the game again, even if it has all the DLC.  Although I would do that if Smash was a port.  I'm just a bit wishy washy, I suppose.

Yeah like I said before, I had never heard of this game as a kid and I've never seen the cabinet ever, even after I learned about it.  I think it's because i've lived in the Bible Belt my whole life.

My review:

I at least liked it better than LEGO Avengers.

Whew!  That game sounds like math!

Let me know if there's anything in FFXV you think I would iike.

So HAL Laboratory, makers of Kirby and Smash Bros., just released their first mobile game in the US.  It's called Part Time UFO.  Check it out if you're interested.

 I never heard of Strategy X.  But that was one neat thing about Game Room is that Konami especially put some of their more obscure game titles on there.  One of my favorites was Kit N Kaboodle, a block pushing maze game.

It's a shame that Game Room didn't get more support, and that the company who did it didn't go out of business.  I would've loved it if Namco jumped on board.  But my main problem with Game Room is that it was such a memory hog.  I had to eventually take it off my hard drive.  I should've sprung for the Elite model 360, but back when I got the 360 in 2007, who knew how big digital games and DLC would take off?

David Crane told me some funny stories about A Boy and His Blob. I have that game on the NES and the remake on the Wii.  Both are good games.  And yeah Freeway is best as a two player game.  Same with Fishing Derby.

Did you know that Freeway was programmed by David Crane, who also did Pitfall?  I think he did the tennis game, too.  I've met David Crane in person twice!  Once at E3 and once at the National Videogame Museum when I volunteered there.  

I like the somewhat realistic car honking noises in Freeway.  Also, is the Laser Blast commercial the one where the kid says over-excitedly, "What other space games?'

Aw man, you can't play arcade games in the new Yakuza game?  I hope the arcade lady found another job.

SMASH!

(sorry)

I hope you get a chance to play Okami someday. it was my Game of the Year for 2006.

I'm looking forward to Octopath Traveler, too.  I just hope they don't bog it down with stuff and I have enough time to play it!

20 bucks isn't too bad for the Splatoon content, as long as it's a lot of it.  Honestly I'd rather they just make an extra game called "Splatoon Adventures" or something that's just a single player game and plays a lot like Ratchet and Clank or something.

I'm not too big on tennis video games, because most seem like just glorfied Pong clones to me.  So I may skip out on Mario Tennis.  Really the only tennis video game I got somewhat into was SEGA Superstars Tennis.  Ulala was in that one.
