So many to choose from but I will always go with my first Pokémon ever Bulbsaur. I remember when I first picked up Pokémon Red my friend picked up blue and my girlfriend at the time got red also. I chose Bulbasaur and he picked Squirtle while she picked Charmander. All three of us played and traded till we all had all of the Pokémon. Because of that I will always have a soft spot for Bulbasaur.
@Vriess Far Cry Primal is such an underrated game in the series. The Who prehistoric setting is so refreshing and unique.
As for classic Mega Man games I would stay away from the Lag-acy collection. I dont know what they did but the lag is so bad in those games so much so that it just throws the whole timing off for alot of the games especially in stages like Air Man's. Mega Man just feels like for those collections he decided to throw on a pair of weighted underpants. Its even to the point where at some points its just unplayable. My suggest find yourself the originals on NES and play them that way you will thank me. Now Mega Man 9 and 10 on the Lag-gecy collection from what I have heard arent bad since many claim they are actually ports of the Wiiware games but any others you need to play the originals.
@Zuljaras To be honest its been years since I played Diablo 2 and really it wasnt that much. I played a ton of the original Diablo on the Playstation when I was a teenager and of course I played Diablo 3 alot, its actually my most played game on the Switch. Since 2 was always stuck on PC for so long I just never got around to it much and since most of my friends didnt have PCs it was always home consoles of Diablo we would play wether it would be Diablo 1 or one of the countless ports of Diablo 3.
I have played through Diablo Immortal as well and once you get past all the mobile shenanigans its not that bad of a Diablo game.
As for Warlocks they have always intrigued me. I cant tell you how many Warlocks I have played in WoW and I have even played a few in Dungeons and Dragons. When Diablo 2 said that they were coming out with one I figured this would be the best time to fully play D2. And yes I will probably try the Lock in Immortal and D4 as well when they come.
While I liked Diablo 4 I just cant keep up it. I enjoy the older Diablo games and D3 is my most played game on the Switch. So more Diablos isnt a bad thing.
@Don But if you look there's no details about it. Yeah they have a new prequel called Crystal Lake coming to Peacock but its a prequel, more along the lines of what the original creator intended. He never intended for Jason Vorhees to be a hockey maked slasher which is where the problem is. Any and all reference to Jason Vorhees as that can't be done unless the original creator says its ok he has gone on record saying thats not Jason. Thats what the new game was pulled thats why we dont see any new movies coming. Yeah I suppose they could rerelease the NES game but they would have to remove all references to Pamela and Jason Vorhees and that wouldn't be the same sadly.
@sportymariosonicmixx Its very complicated. Basically the original creator sued saying that he had the rights and he never ok'd any of the stuff after the first move. He basically has said that the characters were only for the first movie and nothing more and that everything after that was made without his consent and Jason Vorhees is his property and not what he has become and because of that wants everything after the original movie erased.
@Don Friday the 13th is alot more complicated then Jaws. The original writer claims owns the rights to it but then the studio says they do its a complete mess thats all tangled up in the courts right now. So until its sorted out there wont be any more Friday the 13th anything. Even rereleases of older stuff.
@Don I doubt Friday the 13th as that is a huge tangled web of legal rights. That was why the newer Friday the 13th game was pulled from digital stores.
The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom (Switch) Cleaning up a few of the minor rifts and doing some small things before tackling Hyrule Castle.
Forza Hroizon 2 (Series X) Just finished my third Championship and headed over to the next one. Absolutely enjoying this game and its easy to see why this ranks as one of the top Forza games.
Final Fantasy Pixal Remaster (Series X) Still working on this one. Been grinding mostly but I finally have enough to buy all my level 4 spells now.
Borderlands 3 (Series X) Hopefully will be wrapping up another DLC this weekend. I enjoyed this last one alot and loved the western theme.
The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom (Switch) Finished of the Gerudo Desert so now I will be heading to Hyrule Castle. This is turning into one of my favorite Zelda games.
Forza Horizon 2 (Series X) Still in the Forza Horizon mood. I am really enjoy this one and can see why its regarded as one of the best in the series.
Borderlands 3 (Series X) Still working on this one.
Final Fantasy Pixal Remaster (Series X) Picking this one up after not playing it for a bit. I finished the Marsh Cave and got the crown back. Not to wake the elven prince.
Thats it for me I hope everyone has a great weekend.
@NeonPizza I may have Mega Man 9 on my Wii somewhere I just would have to dig it out lol. I do also have Legacy 2 on the Switch I just have to get around to it. I played the demo of Mega Man 11 on the Xbox and it just felt off although I heard that the PC and Switch versions feel alot better. That's another game I need to get to.
@NeonPizza So I have heard. I do have both Lagecy Collections but I only played Mega Man 2 and 3 and after the issues with those I didnt even bother to play the rest.
@NeonPizza Yeah I cant play the Mega Man games on the Lagecy Collection. I heard 9 and 10 arent bad but I havent played them yet. It just irks me that the only way I can enjoy the Mega Man games is then original hardware. It seems they always mess something up with the collections, who could forget the button swap catastrophe on the Gamecube Mega Man Anniversary Collection.
Yeah the TMNT one was alot better which I have played a few times. I heard about the MK problems but didnt know about the Steam version. Yeah I will be getting a Steam Machine when they become available so I will probably pick up the MK Collection then.
@NeonPizza Same. I will be picking this up and it will be one of the few Physical games I will get. I just hope it isn't a lagfest like Mega Man Lagecy Collection is.
Nintendo at it again with their censorship. Was wanting to get this on the Switch but I guess I will be getting on PC. Lost yourselves a sale Nintendo and I am sure I am not the only one.
Well I just lost a lot of respect for this guy. Hasbro is a cancer that needs to be eliminated. Just look how they handle the Dungeon and Dragons brand. Such an iconic brand and now it is a mere laughing stock in the TTRPG world.
Maybe it was a good idea for Nintendo to move on from him.
The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom (Switch) Continuing with my progress now that I am done exploring as much of the overworld tbat I can I am about to enter tbe Jabu Waters Rift.
Borderlands 3 (Series X) Still working on the Bounty of Blood DLC. This is probably my favorite of the DLC for this game.
Final Fantasy Pixal Remaster (Series X) Still on my nostalgia kick with this one. I am about to enter the Marsh Cave to get the crown.
That is video game wise. TTRPG I am planning to pick up our Daggerheart campaign this weekend where we left off last week.
@NeonPizza I remember renting both Ducktales 2 and Chip N Dale 2 back in the day and not being impressed with them. In fact I use to own a C.I.B. copy of Chip N Dale 2 that I bought from that same video store for $5. That was till I lost it in a fire a few years ago.
Talespin was alright especially if you liked side scroller shooters. I remember beating that game once when I was a teenager. And as for Darkwing its just a Mega Man clone really. If I want to play it I'd just sooner play Mega Man 2 or 3.
I have the collection for both PS4 and Xbox and yeah its just doesnt feel right playing with a PS4 or Xbox Controller. I guess a person can play it on PC and get a USB NES type controller for that more traditional feeling but still even those feel off.
@NeonPizza the thing that scares me with these is that we will end up with the Disney Afternoon Lag Collection, like they did with the Mega Man "Lag"ecy Collection on Switch.
No big lost really. I havent been in a Gamestop for years. Mine have become more of a novelty store then a gaming store. They are full of crap like Funko Pops, T-shirts, toys and other non games and have all their games shoved in one little corner of the store.
If I do buy games from a brick and mortar place I go to places like my local game store.
The Legend of Zelda Echoes of Wisdom (Switch) Just started this one and its turning into one of my favorite Zelda games.
Final Fantasy Pixal Remaster (Series X) A trip down memory lane. Just defeated a group of pirates and got their ship.
Borderlands 3 (Series X) Picked this one up again. Started the next DLC, Bounty of Blood: A Fistfull of Redemption. So far I am enjoying the western them of the planet.
Dragon Quest XI S (Switch) Continuing with my journey. Just got to the town with a Circus in it.

@Spider-Kev @Gamebits That was done by Wayforward and not Capcom so it makes sense why that isnt on the collection.
