Just liberated Colony Lambda in Xenoblade Chronicles 3. I'm really enjoying this cast of characters. I'm thinking of picking up Quester as I have a thing for brick breakers.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3. Smashed my first Agnus flame clock on a side quest, but I'm getting back to the main quest where we liberated Colony 30.

Of anything I would like to see a remake of, it's RE0. That game is stuck in its time, and it hasn't aged too well imo.

So... NCU confirmed?

I saw the price for PS5 Pro and literally went OH ****!! Damn... I might have to push my NS2 purchase timetable up...

I love Mega Man and I dabbled in this series, but it just wasn't my cup of tea overall. Maybe we'll still get that Mega Man Legends collection...

Guess a new 3D Mario and Zelda can't come soon enough.

Keep the Goemon love coming. Now I just need that Goemon Collection here in the west.

I don't know what the hell is going on but I love what I see.

1 and 2 would be great, but I guess it's not happening at this point.

Yes! YES!! Finally! This is one of the OSTs I was waiting for. Hope pays off sometimes. Brinstar and Maridia, come to me!

OoT... we met when I was 19. I was off and away into my college years, and the N64 was my "norm". I remember when my mom witnessed the first 3D Zelda. She said, "I like Link's boots," as she always loved a dashing pair of boots. I never forgot that it inspired her to do artwork for a fantasy adventurer character not unlike Link himself, and I cherish that portrait still. Good times and Zelda always seemed to go hand in hand, and my mom too was there through many of them. Happy Mothers Day to those celebrating... I'll do the same in May.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 for me. We're in the desert, cooking and crafting gems.

I have no issue with him. It's actually funny how everyone is so annoyed by him.

They're really trying with the Switch 2 3rd party controllers. I'm even more impressed with this controller, and all I ask for is gyro. For the price point, I'll keep it in mind as a "player 2" controller.

JP's image is so unnatural to me, but I do appreciate seeing Kratos. NA all day though.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 for me. En route to the Sword.

So it's basically a PC then... A PC that plays Xbox games.

So we're incorporating SMW, SMG, and SMB2 in this movie. Phew!

Soooo.... Metroidvania?

@Nintoz @Uncle_Franklin Ugh, thank you. Doesn't pay to think when you're tired. Unbelievable NEITHER are there!

@LastFootnote SML3: Wario Land is available, but for the life of me I can't figure out why Wario Land II has yet to appear. 3 and 4 are already available, too.

I had gave my DSi to my mom years back and she has to constantly keep it on the charger. I've replaced it's battery at least twice already. Oh well. My 3DS still works, but it strangely flips to low power at times, so I think its battery is going.

I do not understand why I am drawn to this game. I just stopped in to see if I'd even remotely be interested, and it turned into a yes. Looking forward to a review.

Sounds fantastic. I just wish I the time available to sink my teeth into this. It would take me forever to complete this.

Cue everyone naming their real life pomeranians Pombon...

Looking good. Looking forward to the review.

My. Damn. Will be getting unless something stupid becomes of this.

This era was a time and these games will definitely be played by me sometime in the near future.

Oh yes, one of my favs!

This was hard. I went with NA because the style was so definitively Zelda for the time and I was used to that. But JP definitely gets respect for a great illustration that depicts the world Link's in.

This weekend is Freedom Planet 2 (60% off) while I await to pick up Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Monday.

March 1989 for NES for me. It was my 3rd owned NES game. My brother is who I have to thank for turning me on the Zelda, as he was the one picking and buying games at the time. When I pulled that gold cartridge out the box, I could tell it was something special. I was snared by the music, that feeling of adventure and wonder, danger and curiosity-- I literally was in another world with agency. Between maps, guides, and word in the street, I loved every minute of it. To complete it, I had no guides, but I had learned enough of how the game worked that I was able to eventually thwart Ganon. To this day, I've played every mainline Zelda, and I don't intend to stop-- Zelda is one of the major reasons I continued on as a gamer in the first place, so it's literally a part of my life without question. Happy 40th LoZ. Let's do 40 more.

I love it! They found a clever way to turn the infamous typo into a thing a la a Dragon Ball fusion of Billy and Jimmy. Genius, and I'm here for it.

Good. I still have this game, just waiting to get my Switch 2.

That's funny, I thought Bethesda said they weren't interested and doing a Switch 2 update?

@DwaynesGames Agreed, I'd love to play that game.

I'm fascinated by these deep cuts already. Console Archives is all over the place, and I'm here for it.

I'll consider this version then when I have time to pursue Adol's quests again. I hate that I have other things to play-- I still have Ys IX: Monstrum Nox, Ys Memoire: Oath in Felghana, and I believe Ys: Revelations in Celceta is coming, of it hasn't already. Sheesh, it's tough being an Adol fan 😆

Nintendo's fiscal year is coming up in... April, right? If a hike is coming, I may have to speed up getting a Switch 2 before the end of Q1 sometime. Wasn't in "my" fiscal plans, but do I risk waiting? Decisions, decisions...

Since it was 50% off, I decided to get Beyond Good & Evil: 20th Anniversary Edition at long last. Missed it for GCN the first go around, but finally correcting that mishap. In between that I've been playing Contra: Operation Galuga because I felt like shooting ****, and I want to unlock as many perks as I can to make it easier for my gamer partner for when he does run it with me.

So basically this is a "Player 2 AF" controller-- Good enough. I prefer rumble, too, but if I had to choose between it and gyro/motion, I'll take the latter every time. I'll keep this controller in mind.

Staryu/Starme-- I don't know why, but it was just the fact it's a floating starfish, and its cry on the animated show was just funny as hell to me. Gengar is up there... Look at that wicked smile. I also like Snorlax and Blastoise.

Edit: I could also do with a James Bond Jr. reboot, too.

Bond had such a derp face and that smirk doesn't help, but it does capture the "young upstart" image, so I guess it's not all bad. I'm a stickler for origin stories, and I love Bond, so I'll keep an eye out for a review.

@bnutz2k I actually didn't have as much issue as others do with C64 and thought it was fun. It wasn't perfect, but it was serviceable as the first 3D Castlevania and way overdue for a remake. I personally liked the soundtrack though there weren't that many songs.

I got 3 wishes for this 40th anniversary:

1) A remake of Castlevania: Simon's Quest
2) A remake of Castlevania 64/Legacy of Darkness
3) SOTN for Switch 1/2

Be still my beating heart. I'm glad that Goemon was thought of at all. It might be Japan only for now but that gives me hope that there still could be a western release. I won't pine for it but I'll cross my fingers.

...Why even bother to have it made of cardboard for the non-official Virtual Boy then? They could have just gave it a hard shell like the official Virtual Boy...

I laughed when I saw that 2030 date, I knew it was a placeholder but damn! In unrelated, but semi-related as far as release dates, Bubble Symphony seems to have passed its release date but has not released yet..

I didn't know there was so many Super Bombermans LOL
