I loved introducing my brother Jeff to retro games when he was little and see what things he liked that were different from the things I liked.  One game that he really liked that I wasn't into as much was Excite Bike.  I thought it was cool seeing how he enjoyed it.

I had the opportunity to review games like PlateUp! and A Little to the Left, but they didn't interest me enough to want to play them.

I just finished reviewing a Story of Seasons game.  Well, sort of.

I stopped selling my games a long time ago.  Just not worth it to me.

Chip N Dale is also a two player simultaneous co-op game, so it would be something you could play with your friends.

Yeah I'll probably preorder it too around that time.  The thing I remember most about that game is how well the script was written.  I can't wait to go through it again and see if it still holds up as well.  I bet it does.

I loved the Disney Afternoon Collection.  So glad Capcom put that out.  Whilie many people have fond memories playing Mario and such on the NES, a lot of my nostalgia comes from the Disney Afternoon games.  DuckTales in particular is pretty amazing.  I would say you should try Chip N Dale Rescue Rangers, but technically that came out in 1990.

If it weren't for Animal Crossing: New Leaf, DuckTales remastered would've been my GOTY for 2013.

I'd say stick with the pixel remaster for Final Fantasy.  The original NES game had too many things I find annoying.  For instance, if two characters are chosen to attack the same enemy, and the first guy defeats it, the second guy won't auto target another enemy.  He'll just swing his weapon and miss.

I think the NES version of Marble Madness turned out pretty decent.  I had it as a kid.

Yeah definitely a game you'll want to know what they're saying.  I first played it on the DS way back when, and i had to get in the mindset that it was based on an old game without a lot of the perks we take for granted now.  I still enjoyed it, though.  

So for Mar10 Day, they announced the next Mario movie will come out April 2026 (bet it gets delayed), but that's no surprise to anyone.  They also announced release dates for Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door and Luigi's Mansion 2.  Paper Mario comes out at the end of May and Luigi's Mansion 2 comes out the end of June.  I would've thought it would be the other way around, but oh well.  I'll definitely be pre-ordering that Paper Mario game at some point.

I kind of doubt it's still on there.  Probably on some anime streaming service by now.

Marble Madness is a standout game on your arcade list as it's my favorite Atari arcade game.  Shame we never got the sequel.

I love DuckTales on NES.  I like pretty much all of Capcom's Disney games.
