Yeah I actually completed most of the mini-games in Bowser's Inside Story.  Even optional ones.

Aside from the Neo Geo Pocket Color, the PSP is one of the few handhelds that pulled me away from Nintendo's Game Boy/DS juggernaut.  Here are some of my favorite PSP games:

Loco Roco 1 and 2

Mega Man Powered Up

Gurumin

Ys Seven

Half-Minute Hero

Work Time Fun (abbreviated WTF)

Oh I know there's more but I can't think of any right now.  I loved being able to play import games on it, too, like Taiko no Tatsujin.

I didn't get the PlayStation when it first came out because I was perfectly happy playing Yoshi's Island and Chrono Trigger on the SNES.

When I started reviewing games, I was in college and the N64 had just come out.  There really wasn't enough games coming out for it that I could review, so even though I couldn't afford it, I got a PlayStation.  That was one of the best gaming purchases I ever made.  After that, I was reviewing games left and right.

You know what's cool is that Pac-Man World came out when I was at a high point during my gig at The Dallas Morning News, so I got to go to E3 nearly every year and I got to know the development team who made Pac-Man World.  That's why it's a special game to me, even though it's definitely not the best Pac game out there.

Like I said earlier, I don't really get into most 3-D fighters, Virtua Fighter included.  But I do have a couple of favorite characters: Sarah Bryant, Vanessa, and...Jeffry I guess.  In one of the newer games you could unlock SEGA themed outfits for the fighters so you could dress Sarah to look like Ulala.

I still see a Mewtwo at places here and there.

The only amiibo that I don't have that is currently out right now is Mega Yarn Yoshi.

Nah my PC is just an internet machine mostly.  Which is OK because I don't really play PC games anyway.

Math is hard.

I'm glad they let you skip the mini-games, too, but why not just make the games better?  Oh well, guess not every game can be as good as Bowser's Inside Story.

I played Hotel Mario a long time ago and I didn't think it was AS BAD as everyone says it is.  Now, granted, that was a long time ago and I didn't play very much of it.  But it did remind me of old single screen arcade games like Mario Bros., or maybe Mappy.  I'm sure if I tried it again I wouldn't like it as much, though.

Hey, you're not done with the NES and SNES Mario spinoff games are you?  There's the puzzle game Yoshi on the NES, as well as SNES titles like Wario's Woods and Yoshi's Safari.

I think I'm almost done with Paper Jam, which is good since Project X Zone 2 comes out next week.  Expect some blogs on that later this month.
