SNES - Super Mario All Stars, Yoshi's Island, Tetris Attack, Mario Kart, Super Metroid, Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy VI, Secret of Mana, Seiken Densetsu 3, Parodius, Harvest Moon, Kirby's Dreamland 3, Kirby's Fun Pack/Superstar

Not all of these are from personal experience

N64: Super Smash Bros., Goldeneye, Pokemon Puzzle League (if you missed Tetris Attack), Super Mario 64

GameCube: Super Smash Bros. Melee, Resident Evil 4 (older gamers only), Tales of Symphonia, Viewtiful Joe, Pikmin, Animal Crossing

Nintendo Handhelds: at least one of the Pokemon games, Castlevania: Aria/Dawn of Sorrow, Meteos, one of the Mega Man Battle Network games (one is enough)

Classic (you have to play a classic game at least once...it's a wonderful experience, even if you're too young for it to be nostalgic...if you must, you can get a remake with better graphics and new features, but classic games have beautifully simple gameplay that is incredibly addicting, regardless of graphics):
Pong, Tetris, Pac-Man, Asteroids, Breakout

General/Series:
DDR, Mega Man, Mario 2D Platformer, Final Fantasy

Fable wasn't horrible, it was just way too short. It looked nice, you could do kool stuff in the game but as I said, just way too short.

PC Morrowind is much better since it's got a hell load of fun mods for it.

PC has the Game of the Year Edition too O_o
If you don't have a PC, then that's fine I guess, but PC versions are mostly the better versions.
Getting Oblivion on Xbox360 though, just because my PC isn't powerful enough for it :(

There. Happy? I changed the size. Now since you guys apparently have no sense of humor, I'll explain this to you "logically". I don't actually think Mario's sexy. It's a joke. Alright? Now quit whining about the sig, and get back to your life.

March 4th, 2006, 07:47 pm
