That's pretty neat.
One of the weirdest things I found in recent years was that the NES version of Ultima III had J-pop versions of two if its songs, with full Japanese vocals.
I was seriously hoping that Twitter would complete its visit down the drain it was circling and die forever. Then it became the White House soapbox.
In the Wii U version you can get an upgraded sail that changes the wind's direction automatically so you always catch wind.
You can. That's how I first played it, in the CV collection on Switch. Contra: Hard Corps is likewise on the Contra collection. Those two games kind of killed some of the impetus for me to get a mini Genesis.
I don't think it was deliberate on Nintendo's part, but it was silly of him to expect Nintendo to rearrange its release schedule to accomodate them. DKC didn't happen overnight, after all, and Nintendo planned its release months in advance. Doug TenNapel and Dave Perry are both kind of prima donnas anyway.
I picked up DQXI on Switch. The game was already great, but the Switch version is a truly sublime experience. I'm having a hard time deciding between it and Fire Emblem: Three Houses as GOTY.
I have Cities Skylines. It's pretty much the de facto city sim since EA released the complete disaster that was SimCity 5.
Castlevania Bloodlines was a good game, though more basic than SCV4. I actually like Hard Corps better than Contra 3, however. My only issue with Hard Corps is that the explosions cover up a lot of the screen, which causes enemies to ambush you. Phantasy Star IV is a good game and one of my favorite Genesis games, but again I like Lunar and Lunar 2 even better.
I never did get into Earthworm Jim. It got overshadowed by a lot of other stuff that came out in 1994. The N64 game killed and buried Earthworm Jim.
In addition to Alundra and Time Stalker, there was also a Saturn game called Dark Savior that some outlets referred to as a sequel to Landstalker because it had similar gameplay with 3-D polygon environments and was made by the same developers, even though the story and characters were completely separate.
In Arizona, it's always midnight all the time. It's especially sweet making fun of out of state friends during the spring forward change. Oddly, there seems to be fewer and fewer friends to tease every year. That's just a coincidence, right?
