Man, this game looks so good running on a handheld system. I’m really not much of a graphics person, but damn, I’ve gotta appreciate.

Zelda fans: Do you prefer the initial artwork for Zelda: A Link Between Worlds, or the revised artwork released later in development?
I like both a lot. I love the Link to the Past vibes with the initial art, but I also love the more whimsical look of the subsequent art.

Anyone have memories with Sonic Chronicles on the Nintendo DS?
I have such mixed feelings with this game. I want to love it, and there are aspects about it that I like, but it all comes together in such a weird way and ends up a lackluster experience.
And that music… ugh. 😣

The “looks like you’re playing as them but not really because they don’t have their own unique moves” characters in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate…
Maybe someday they’ll get their chance to become full-fledged fighters in the series.

Got a really cool picture with the voice of Phoenix Wright in the Ace Attorney anime, Eric Vale! No objections with how this turned out.

Has anyone else played Baku Baku for the Sega Saturn? It’s a pretty fun puzzle game, and I have good memories with these weird-ass, early 3D nightmare fuel animal heads.

One of my gaming guilty pleasures is Street Fighter: The Movie: The Game.
Like, yeah, this game probably shouldn’t exist, but I got it as a little kid right after it came out for the Saturn and I love it.

Here’s my Nintendo Switch 2025 Year in Review!
Pretty obvious why June and July numbers are so much higher than the rest. I got pretty busy with other stuff at certain points this year, which can be seen for a few of these months.
Gotta work on getting these numbers up for 2026!

The death race with Metal Sonic at the end of Stardust Speedway in Sonic CD is SO cool! One of the best moments in the entire series.

I absolutely love the U.F.O. ability in Kirby’s Adventure! Probably my favorite out of all the Kirby copy abilities.
