Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars is one of my favorite games of all time. That’s why I was over the moon when the remake was announced this year. Could it, nay, did it live up to my expectations? Let’s find out in my review!

Wii U 10th Anniversary Retrospective
I’m back! What better way to celebrate my return than with a classic retrospective? This month marks the tenth anniversary of the Wii U’s launch, which was released on November 18, 2012 in North America. In my opinion, the Wii U is a misunderstood and poorly marketed console.
The games were good, the world just wasn’t ready for this oddball system. Instead of going through the system’s best games which would be more like a glorified list of Switch titles, I decided to dive in deep for some good and bad games that are still locked to the Wii U. My title says ten, but there are more than that to highlight here. Enjoy!
10 Classic Retro Games from February 1992, 2002, and 2012
Greetings retro fans. I’m going to do something a little different in this month’s roundup of classic games because 1992’s and 2002’s offerings don’t hold much weight to me. I didn’t invest a lot of time in them growing up but maybe they did for you. I mostly want to get to 2012 because it was a huge month for gaming. Altogether I’ll be looking at ten games, with three notable highlights. Enjoy!
Retro Game Roundup: The Games Of January 1992, 2002, and 2012
Welcome to my first post in my 2022 retrospective series on games from 1992, 2002, and 2012. All three episodes for January are up now in one big content dump. I hope the future episodes will be sprinkled throughout the following weeks in each successive month. There is some great stuff to celebrate this year from all three eras. Get pumped!
13 Games From 2021 You Probably Missed
As I do every year, I looked back and found some games I missed. Good or bad, maybe you missed these games too. I divided this retrospective into three parts. Part one is based on PlayStation games, part two focuses on Nintendo Switch, and the finale looks at some late December games. Simple enough right? So, let’s dive in!
I received review codes for Anodyne 2, Blightbound, Children of Morta DLC, Xuan Yuan Sword 7, Boomerang X, Cathedral, Everhood, The Legend of Standing, Super Mombo Quest, UnMetal, Chorus, Dungeon Munchies, and The Gunk.
Top 5 Game Boy Advance Hidden Gems
Okay, I’m a little later than promised. Circumstances got in the way, etc. End of June. Beginning of July. What’s the big difference? Delays aside, I’m back to celebrate the Game Boy Advance’s 20th anniversary one last time with some underrated gems for this short-lived portable. Enjoy!
Game Boy Advance 20th Anniversary
This month marked the 20th anniversary of the Game Boy Advance’s launch. It was released in Japan on March 21, 2001. This was, and still is, an awesome little handheld. So, in celebration, I focused on Japanese games for the past two weeks to make this two-part video series. Don’t worry because in June, the North American anniversary, I’ll look at our stuff too.
Now then, part one is about pure Japanese releases I wish were in English. Then, in part two, I played five more Japanese games that weren’t released over here officially but were patched into English by fans. Enjoy!
Bravely Default 2: A Modern PS1 Game On Switch
Rather than do a proper review of Bravely Default 2 wherein I could go through every single aspect of the game, I wanted to do a quick video on why this game is worth recommending. Just know, going in, it’s not a revolution for the genre, but it is good. Enjoy!
Top 30 NES Games From 1991
I thought it would be fun to go back and look at thirty NES games that were released in 1991. I do admittedly cheat with this idea as some games were released earlier in Japan, but would still be celebrating thirty years in North America.
For each entry, I’ll go through dates and regions don’t you worry. I should also note that these games are ranked alphabetically. Top games might be a stretch too as some of these games aren’t the best. They are at least the best from 1991 though from the sixty or so that I played. Notes aside, here are all three parts. Enjoy!
Ring Fit Adventure Review
I’ve been playing Ring Fit Adventure every day since it launched a little less than two weeks ago. I think that’s enough time for me to finally give the game a critique and let you fine readers know if it is worth the steep price of $80. Enjoy the review!
