@R_is_KC Yeah, I don't know how I got so lucky to go to those two games.
I just found out that John Sherman is officially moving the Royals downtown. I am really angry right now. So many great memories and moments will soon be turned into a parking lot.
Man, I hate the Forest Temple. That and Jabu's Belly are always tough for me. For whatever reason, I get all turned around and it takes me forever to get back on track in both.
I would have liked a few things from New Leaf to have been included in New Horizons, like the Zelda villagers and the bigger store, but they aren't deal breakers, and I can always go back to New Leaf if I want to.
New Horizons really helped me get thru the lockdown at the beginning of the pandemic. I am very grateful it came out when it did.
@Bearzilla823 I actually wish E.T. was on collections like this. I am old enough to remember playing and enjoying it as a kid. I had no idea it was so hated back then.
@Tom-Massey You might want to add "unlimited continues in the middle of the match" to the "Cons" section for the people who just read the Pros/Cons of a review. Then again, you may not want to.
Thanks for the review, very informative for me. If they ever localize the game, I will surely add it to my collection.
@Slowdive Well, I beat Mega Man 1 and 2 on Wily Wars, but it was tough. The prospect of beating 3 kinda scares me. It was always the toughest of the 3 for me.
@Slowdive You are right, the Mega Man games are tougher. I normally can sail through Mega Man 1 to the Wily stage, but it was a struggle to get there in this version.
I have a regular version of Monopoly Junior, and they did a great job of making it accessible for kids. My 7 year old loves it, and a game only takes 15-20 minutes.
@Bearzilla823 I have had a couple of those trick shot bowling matches too. Luckily, most of the time it is standard bowling, but I agree you should be able to choose.
@Highlar I am having trouble with the controls too. Very tough for me get consistent good throws in bowling, and my racket didn't swing a few times for me it n tennis.

Re: Feature: From 'Retro Bowl' To 'Retro Goal' - How New Star Games Returned To Its Grass Roots
@R_is_KC I was lucky enough to go to Game 6 of the World Series in 2014 and Game 1 of the 2015 World Series.
2 of the best days of my life!
Re: Feature: From 'Retro Bowl' To 'Retro Goal' - How New Star Games Returned To Its Grass Roots
@R_is_KC Are you a fellow KC Royals fan?
Re: Feature: From 'Retro Bowl' To 'Retro Goal' - How New Star Games Returned To Its Grass Roots
I am trying to think of a name for the potential baseball game that rhymes with "bowl" and "goal".
So far, I am unsuccessful.
Re: Mini Review: Retro Bowl - An Addictive 8-Bit Throwback That's Appropriately Super

Re: Poll: So, Animal Crossing: New Leaf Or New Horizons - Which Do You Like Best?
New Horizons, but not by much.
I would have liked a few things from New Leaf to have been included in New Horizons, like the Zelda villagers and the bigger store, but they aren't deal breakers, and I can always go back to New Leaf if I want to.
