For some reason I was sure James Pond was a penguin, so this blog was quite the surprise.

Hmm, I see it was indeed possible for you to go lower effort 

I haven't actually played any of these, so I don't really have an opinion

I have volume 2 as well! Maybe I'll get to that in the coming years.

Prince of the Yolkfolk is a great name lol

It had a fancy cabinet and good graphics for the time. There's really no reason to recommend it now.

Yes, Mighty Gunvolt Burst was a Limited Run Games release. I ordered it, like, six months ago lol. 2020 was an expensive year of LRG games for me, and there were games I would have liked to get but skipped over anyway. Ugh, money.

This is actually the first Ys game I've bought (surprising, given my penchant for backlog bloat) but I'm really excited to play it. I love the soundtrack so much. I wish Falcolm would bring the Ys games from the PSP to Switch. Those are so expensive to get now.

I love the graphics of Octopath so. Much. More. I know they're just following up the art style of the first Bravely Default but I'd take beutiful HD sprites over 3D chibi characters any day.

I've hardly ever played any of these Taito games, so it has been an interesting experience.

Me either! It has been very educational 

I wanted to play this and never did. At least I'm playing the new one now. But if I ever find this one cheap somewhere...
