Well, since in the past couple of years I've been forced into living in a small one bedroom apartment, a lot of my Pac-Man collection is in storage. Plus I'd have to learn how to make YouTube videos. :)
Yeah there's a lot of Nintendo properties better than Mario. Kirby, Wario, Zelda, Metroid, Animal Crossing.
A couple of games missing from that list are Kirby Air Ride, which I think is better than Double Dash. Also my number two favorite game of all time is on the GameCube, only being beaten by Pac-Man. Know what it is? Animal Crossing!
I have so much Pac-Man stuff I could probably open up my own Namco Museum!
I think that pop up arcade/store in Macy was to celebrate Pac-Man's 45th Anniversary, plus the fact that Pac-Man is getting a balloon in this year's Macy's parade, along with Mario. I hope I can watch the parade on TV this year so I can see them!
Yeah if you like Minecraft and Terraria, I bet you'd like Super Mining Mechs.
Here's my hot take: "Kirby is better than Mario."
Aw, too bad you're going to trade Mario Kart: Super Circuit. That's my second favorite Mario Kart game, only because it plays so much like the SNES one, which is my favorite.
I never could get into the Harry Potter stuff. I stopped reading the books after the fourth one. Everyone else in my family loves Harry Potter, so I'm kind of the black sheep in that regard. Personally, my favorite books series were the Chronicles of Narnia books I read as a kid.
Psychonauts for 3 bucks is a good deal. I like that game better than the sequel. It was just so much more funnier. Nowadays people are so afraid of offending others they forgot how to be funny. The sequel is like that.
The Sonic racing games are really good. One of the few series that can compete with Mario Kart.
I didn't even know there was a Wacky Races game on the Wii. I had the one on the Dreamcast. Wacky Races is my favorite H-B cartoon.
Speaking of racing games, I just got Kirby Air Riders. it's so good. It'll probably win second place in my GOTY awards.
I was going to look into getting a PS5 on a Black Friday deal, but the deals are they are regular price instead of the higher price they went to, plus the fact that I just had to get a new cell phone since my old one finally pooped out on me. So no PS5 for me.
Honestly I think Okami works fine without motion controls, so I think it's great even on the PS2.
Yeah I don't really care about the story in Kingdom Hearts. I just like tromping around Disney worlds beating up bad guys with a giant key!
Yeah Kirby's Dream Buffet is more about rolling around than platforming, but it still gives me Fall Guys vibes. Just mixes some Marble Madness/Super Monkey Ball action into things. I love the food graphics. You'll be hungry after playing it!
Here are my favorites from your list: Okami was my GOTY in 2006, even beating out Zelda: Twilight Princess. Klonoa 2: Lunatea's Veil is definitely one of my top 5 favorite PS2 games. The Ratchet and Clank PS2 games are some of the best 3D platformers of that generation. Kingdom Hearts games are great, even if the story is unfollowable garbage. Odin Sphere is one of the few games that made item management fun. And I'm always interested in the Fatal Frame games since I like ghosts.
I don't really pay attention to all the different Power Rangers series. The one my brothers liked was the original one in the US where they turned into robot dinosaurs or whatever. As a teen, I hated that show, but I still liked watching it with my brothers. I couldn't bash on the show because it was no different than the Ultraman and Godzilla shows I watched as a kid.
I've played the Global Test Run of Kirby Air Riders and yeah, it's the same Kirby Air Ride game I've known was great since the GameCube. Can't wait to play the full game!
