Re: The Wii U First Launched Eight Years Ago Today

D-Star92

I still have my Wii U hooked up. Haven't been playing it that much though, since I have a Switch. I'm still keeping mine since I have a ton of downloadable games on it, including VC games. It's basically a retro game machine at this point, lol. I sometimes play Xenoblade Chronicles X on it, too. Some Wii U games still remain on my backlog too, like DKC: Tropical Freeze and Bayonetta. (My copy of Bayonetta 2 came with the first one too, which is cool.)

I have the deluxe set that came with Nintendo Land, I got that as a Christmas present. Super Mario 3D World is still one of my favorite Mario games, that was a great time when first playing it! I also remember getting Mario Kart 8 in the mail the day before its release date - that felt really, really good.

Recently I've been coming back to my 3DS. There's a lot of games I have for it that I haven't finished yet! (Such as Fantasy Life - REALLY should play it more often.) I've been replaying A Link Between Worlds and I still love it.

I have a New 3DS XL - I love it and it's all red (my favorite color) but I don't care for how glossy it is. Kinda wish I got a regular-sized New 3DS, but it is what it is, lol. Definitely a system well worth keeping, even if I have a Switch.

Re: Today's The Big Day - Happy 35th Anniversary, Mario!

Mario's the reason why I'm a gamer in the first place! The very first time I played the first Super Mario Bros., it was via Super Mario All-Stars on the SNES and I was around 4 at that time. (Come to think of it, SMAS was likely the first game I ever played.)

Super Mario is by far my favorite video game series of all time, with masterpieces like Super Mario World, Super Mario Galaxy, and many others to name just a few. If it weren't for the creation of SMB, gaming just wouldn't be the same now, would it? Looking forward to Mario's next adventure, whenever that may be!

Happy 35th Anniversary, Super Mario Bros.! Keep on being awesome, Mario.

Gonna be playing some more of Animal Crossing: New Horizons. I'm gonna work on my island a little more, and if I'm lucky enough I can get some new fish/bugs for the museum. I'll also play Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, there are those tournaments going on that Nintendo's hosting this weekend. (For NA, anyway)
