Glad to see you backl  If you have time, please go read my blog.

I think that cookie demon looks like a Skylander. :)

I find it interesting that Dark Void Zero was made to promote the main game, but Dark Void Zero ended up being the better title.  I love how Capcom put fake videos out explaining how Dark Void Zero was a 'lost' PlayChoice 10 NES title (not true).  While it's no Shovel Knight, Dark Void Zero certainly felt like a NES Capcom game I would've rented as a kid.

Attack of the Friday Monsters is a really unique experience.  I wouldn't really even call it a game since all you do is talk to people and I think you realy only have to play the card game a couple of times.  It may be short, but I'm glad I got to experience it.  Anyone who loves old Godzilla and other giant monster movies should take a look at it.

Speaking of Level 5, their game Yo-Kai Watch, comes out soon!  In fact, this Monday, Oct. 5, Disney XD is going to start showing the cartoon in the US!

I reviewed both Dark Void Zero and Attack of the Friday Monsters.  Let's see if I can find the reviews...

A ha!  Here they are:

Never was too interested in the game, but the history and lore behind it is kind of interesting.  I read somewhere that WB has signed on to make a Freddy's horror movie!

One time I had a dream that I was at an amusement park and there was a Five Nights at Freddy's haunted house ride.  Needless to say, I didn't ride it in my dream, but I think it's interesting that my sub-conscious mind thought of that idea.

I played the arcade version of Final Fight recently and I still enjoyed it and I think it has aged very well.  The reason why Streets of Rage beats out the console version of Final Fight is that Streets of Rage was designed as a console game first, not an arcade game.  And even then it took a sequel to perfect the formula.  So yeah, Streets of Rage 2 is definitely better than SNES Fight Fight.  Although Streets of Rage 2 did rip off a lot of Final Fight staples.  Awesome music, though.  I think it's funny that Capcom released a rental only version of Final Fight that let you play as Guy only (it was called Final Fight Guy).  I never played the console-only Final Fight sequels, I wonder if they're any better?  Final Fight One on the GBA had some neat unlockables, but that was about it.  I tell you what is a good console Final Fight is Mighty Final Fight on the NES. 

I just think Kirby games are less frustrating.  Mario games can get pretty hard in places, but Kirby games rarely get that way.  Kirby games were initially designed for younger players anyway.  Also, I think old arcade games are good to start kids off on gaming, too, due to their simplicity. Mario games are great, don't get me wrong, but I just think Kirby games are better.

Most touch screen Nintendo games feel like they could work for mobile devices, too.  Other ones not on your list could include Pokemon Shuffle, Art Academy, and Mario vs. Donkey Kong.  I bet if Nintendo goes mobile, we'll see some of those games.

Hooray for Kirby!  I think little kids should start out playing Kirby games, not Mario.

Well you said I could list five, so I'll just list my top five favorite games of all time, because they'll work for your question, too.

1. Pac-Man

2. Final Fantasy 6

3. Animal Crossing (GameCube)

4. Super Mario Kart (SNES)

5. Namco Museums vol. 1-5 (PSOne)

I just posted an article about my latest Amiibo finds:

I plan on posting a few spooky reviews thsi month at GamerDad.com, but that's about it.  Might get the Wii U Fatal Frame game, too.  It's supposedly coming out this month.
