Just wanted to say hello and we miss you.

This is a very good article.  It's good to read about what could've happened, but also what wouldn't have happened.  We wouldn't have things like Mario 64 as we know it, probably.  But who knows? 

I read somewhere that at the end of the SNES' lifecycle, Nintendo and Argonaut were working closely together on 3-D gaming, due to the success of Star Fox.  Rumor has it they worked on a 3-D Mario or Yoshi game.  But when the Nintendo PlayStation thing fell through, Argonaut made their own game and called it Croc: Legend of the Gobbos.  That may be why Croc kind of looks like Yoshi.  But it's just a rumor.  I'm kind of glad it didn't happen that way, though, because Croc really wasn't that good.

I also read that Secret of Mana was orignally planned for the CD add-on, and that's why the final game was so buggy, because it was meant for CD-ROM. 

Another interesting fact about Nnitendo and Sony is that the reason why the SNES' sound chip was so good was because Sony made it.

By the way, if you get a chance, I hope you can visit my blog and read about my PAX articles.  Have a great day!  --Cary

2000 had a lot of good games.  Majora's Mask, Banjo-Tooie, and The Misadventures of Tron Bonne, to name a few. It was also the last full year I wrote at The Dallas Morning News, and I was doing very well at this time.  Unfortunately, after 2001, it went a bit downhill from there.

You should enjoy everything I like because I said so. :) Just kidding!

If you haven't yet, I'd like to encourage you to read my PAX Prime articles on my blog if you get a chance.

Thanks for reading my articles!

I'm playing a game right now, too, that I didn't expect to like.  It's called Lara Croft Go on iPad and it's actually pretty fun.  It's like a cross between the other Lara Croft game, and isometric puzzlers like Captain Toad.  Hey that gives me an idea!  Lara Croft and Captain Toad should team up and be in a game together!  Yeah, I guess it's probaby good that I don't make games, huh?

I love the Phoenix Wright games.  Did you try the DLC case in Dual Destinies?  It's worth it.  I hope Capcom localizes the next TWO Phoenix Wright games.  They just came out with Phoenix Wirght X Sherlock Holmes, and they just announced Phoenix Wright 6!

Child of Light was a great RPG.  I named it my RPG of the Year last year.

Oh I love The Misadventures of Tron Bonne!  Still have it on disc!  I named that my Game of the Year in whatever year it came out, and there were some great games that year.  Tron Bonne and the Servebots are some of the best characters Capcom ever created.  I think the only reason why Minions are so popular is because they imitate the Servebots (it was probably me that pointed the Servebot Minion thing out to you)!  I'm so sad they never made Mega Man Legends 3.  I was looking foward to more Tron and Servebots.

I'm playing a Lara Croft game, too.  It's called Lara Croft Go on iPad and it's actually pretty fun.  It's like a cross between the other Lara Croft game, and isometric puzzlers like Captain Toad.  Hey that gives me an idea!  Lara Croft and Captain Toad should team up and be in a game together!  Yeah, I guess it's probaby good that I don't make games, huh?

I love Theatrhythm Curtain Call.  It almost has TOO many songs!

Hey, if you haven't done so already, I'd like to encourage you to please read my blog and check out my articles from PAX Prime in Seattle!  I took a lot of pictures and played a lot of games!  Check it out!  --Cary

I'm not a big fan of Sonic, but Sonic Adventure is one of the few Sonic games that I actually liked.  It does have some problems and hasn't aged well, but I still enjoyed it.

And I liked Big the Cat.  But then, I like stupid annoying characters.

Hey, I'd like to encourage you to visit my blog and read my PAX Prime 2015 articles.  I played a lot of games and took a lot of neat pictures!

it was a lot of fun!  I encourage you to read my articles and see what I did!

That speeder bike looks like a Fudgesicle.
