DS: The Urbz: Sims in the City (and Metroid Prime Hunters: First Hunt, if that counts). Couldn’t afford anything else. Bought circa June 2005 shortly after the Australian launch.
Wii: The Sims 2: Pets, Bully: Scholarship Edition, The Godfather: Blackhand Edition, The Sims 2: Castaway (these were all bought before I actually bought the Wii as I was anticipating a holiday sale/bundle), and when eventually picking up the console, Wii Sports (obviously) and Animal Crossing: Let’s Go To The City. Console purchased in late 2008, so, I had quite a bit of catching up to do.
3DS: Super Street Fighter IV, The Sims 3, Nintendogs + Cats : Toy Poodle and New Friends. Bought on launch day.
Wii U: Nintendo Land, New Super Mario Bros. U. Bought on launch day.
Switch: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, 1-2 Switch (what a dichotomy!). Bought on launch weekend.
"Gee, that's really persuasive. Do you have any actual points to make other than to essentially say 'me Tarzan, physical bad, digital good'?"
Now, now, we don't know if anyone was taking offence or just joking themselves but, just to be absolutely clear on the matter, English is a stupid language.
Any language where its own rules suggest the name of the language should be spelt 'Inglish' but it is instead spelt 'English' is obviously beyond stupid.
You guys had me at blood and semen.
What better way to celebrate than firing something out of the pipe?
My parents gave me and bought me several games throughout my childhood, but the first game I bought with my own money earned through a 9-to-5 job was Resident Evil 2.
Switch Physical Collection - 1,247 games (as of April 15th, 2024)
