Kirby's Adventure is one of the best NES games you'll play.  It's amazing (probably because it was one of the last NES games).  I hope you get to play Kirby Super Star when you get to games from 1996.

I rented that Daffy Duck game on SNES a long time ago.  It's not too bad.  Definitely a fun rental anyway.

I really enjoyed Secret of Mana.  That was back in my Square fanboy days.  That game had really neat pastel graphics and a unique musical score.  It was a bit buggy (you could even 'break' the game), and you could tell it was really meant to be designed for the SNES CD add-on that got cancelled.  But I really liked it anyway for some reason.

I never had a Genesis, but if I did at that age, I would've been all into Phantasy Star 4.  I played it a long time later and thought I would really like it when I was at that age where FF4 and FF6 were my favorite games.  Speaking of which, when you get to 1994, I hope you give FF6 a chance, too.

According to the Internet, Kirby's Adventure on NES came out in 1993.

Since I open all my Amiibo figures, I don't worry too much if the box is damaged, but that still sucks.  I recently gave up and imported a few Amiibo figures and they just came in.  So now I have Meta Knight, Palutena, and Zero Suit Samus.  Only 20 bucks each, and free shipping, not too shabby.

Don't just stop at Kirby's Dream Land.  His future endeavors are WAY better!

And I think its name is supposed to be Octomann!

Knowing how bad I get with Animal Crossing, I know to stay away from Minecraft. :)

Happy Home Designer will be for 3DS.  One good thing is that changing the furniture in houses is easier in this game because you just use the touch screen.

But yeah, I'd rather have an Animal Crossing game where you can be the museum curator and help Blathers!

Yeah a lot of RPGs use squids and octopuses as bosses.  The second main boss in FF4 comes to mind.

I should probably stay away from Fantasy Life, seeing how bad I get with Animal Crossing.  Are you going to get the new AC game coming out: Happy Home Designer?

I LOVE the Game & Watch Gallery games!  I wish they would make more of them (I think WarioWare kind of replaced them, though).  Did you know the G&W Gallery games were made by TOSE?  They also did Starfy, and a bunch of other games, too.  TOSE is always kind of 'behind the scenes.'

I apologize if I sound cocky, but if I am reading your description of Chef correctly, you might not be playing it right.  You're not supposed to flip the food until it burns.  You're supposed to flip it until it's cooked (darker shade than original, but not as dark as being burned).  Then you DON'T flip it and let Yoshi catch it and eat it.  You'll earn lots of points by feeding him cooked food instead of raw or burnt food.  And eventually, he'll lay an egg and it'll turn into a baby Yoshi, grow up, and then that will be the Yoshi you feed!  You get lots of points by doing that, so try playing it that way next time you play it.

I just mentioned one of the Game & Watch Gallery games on my new blog, too!  What a coincidence!

(I love that bottom picture where Bowser is tickling Toad)

(And I really like the music in the DK game)
