I think his name was Yagami? Kogami? I forgot.

Just wanted to say happy belated spinny ring day. I see it was yesterday.

Also kudos (again) on 100% in all 6 worlds of Yoshi's Island. I bring it up because I meant to say at the time that I wouldn't wait too long to try the Extra levels, since (as you know) they're much more difficult and coming back to THAT after a long period of time could be.. jarring.

Yes, Kid Icarus 👀
Only took until the 3DS' discontinuation for me to pick it up. Still, I kind of want to try Of Myths and Monsters on Game Boy first. We'll see.

Hey! Thanks

Thank you for the birthday wishes! 'u' and late happy birthday to you too hehe ~

Ack, been slacking on adding games... there was a B2G1 deal, plus gen 4 remakes are out tonight... ay yi yi.
Been slacking on playing games too but let's not talk about that part

Thanks for recommending Ni No Kuni, that was a fun game to !

You recommended Axiom Verge in exchange for Kirby's Dream Course during your Mutual Recommendation Station™ (great idea by the way). The Verge Axiom Verge has since appeared on LRG so I picked it up. It'll be a long time before it ships, so to honor our deal I'm open to something else in its place, if you want. (Didn't feel right just tossing it.)

Speaking of Dream Course, I found this:

Ooooo, neato. Bloodstained really pulling out all of the stops to make this the best Metroidvania.

Aw man, I got pranked, I thought Snake was in Bloodstained.

That's really interesting. It sounds like Metroid got harder, which is the reverse of most gaming series that started on the NES. Maybe I'll boot up that NES version of Metroid I have on my 3DS if/when I get through Zelda 2.

Edit: Yessss, I hope you're enjoying Echoes! It's one of my favourites.

Huh. Which one would you say is the hardest?

Wait a minute, isn't Super the hardest one?! Why you try to break me Judy? I thought we were friends?!

I saw your update about the Mutual Recommendation Station -- I recommend Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia!

I hope you had a good time with Donkey Kong Country 2! It's my second favorite game of all-time. I laughed at your username, by the way. It's referencing my favorite line from Uprising.

Axiom Verge? A Metroidvania search platformer? But, but... Dread is out on the 8th!
I'll set it aside. Metroid first.

Single player Dream Course can be unforgiving (mostly in Courses 3 and 5), but like golf, you just need to get a feel for how hard to hit the ball Kirby. (Does Kirby just have a permanent Ball ability, then? 🤔)
My advice? Watch some of those little tutorial demos. They explain a few tricks that you might not consider in the moment (how your basic moves and abilities interact with hazards, etc.), and some of them are just fun to watch anyway.
Almost every hole can be sunk in a single shot (so they say), so it doubles as a puzzle game, too.

If Ace Combat 7 doesn't work, then I recommend Rock of Ages!
It's one of my favorite games.

icey~~, *tries to avoid being attacked by rpgs*

I am legally obligated to tell you to play Final Fantasy VII

Super Mario World and Thousand Year Door were already picked, so like Paper I'll suggest a childhood favorite, Kirby's Dream Course.
Satisfying to move around in, nice aesthetic and music (typical of Kirby), and it's a riot in multiplayer. Definitely one of those "win by screwing the other player over" type of games.
