I tried to reignite a little nostalgia and played Dr. Mario and Shadowgate on this website:

I also tried Super Mario 3 but it's TOO hard without a handheld controller. I didn't even get halfway through the 1st level.

I've played FFXIII-2 and made it as far as the final boss, I'm gonna replay the story and get a bit more experience and a few more missions in.
IN the middle of the original XIII right now. Tried Final Fantasy Xii, but the levelling is too slow for me. Also in the middle of X, and hoping to pick up a used World Ends With You today.
Also checked out the demos for Resident Evil: Revelations, Mario and Sonic at the 2012 London Olympic Games, and got some DLC for Final Fantasy XIII-2 and Assassin's Creed: Revelations. Finally get to find out about Lucy's past!

Thank you for the link, that's a fun website. I liked the very simplistic and old-fashioned Batman Returns game.Lazario wrote:http://www.nescafeplay.com/play/

Aw, you're welcome.
I just downloaded an SNES emulator and played (and beat) both the first 2 Mighty Morphin Power Rangers games (with the help of Game Genie, of course) and almost beat Super Mario World but I can't kill Bowser with the Invincibility code on because you have to kill him with the bodies of his henchmen and the Invincibility star-coating knocks them offscreen. So, I turned the cheat code for Invincibility off and died instantly. I can only beat 1 level without Invincibility. Without it, I die. So I had to leave Bowser's Castle unfinished. Dang it!! Also, I skipped out of Star Road before doing any of the Special levels.
Played Mortal Kombat 3 as well but it's boring when you can't switch your player. I played as Kung Lao and Shang Tsung with the 1-Button Fatality code on and it gets too repetitious. I got bored. Won 2 tournaments and made myself scarce.

I played Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective/ on my DSi a while ago(as I do not play normal DS games on my 3DS). It's an innovative game from the creators of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney(even the names sound similar). You just have to possess objects to prevent certain events from occurring at the right moment.
I also played some of the virtual console games on my 3DS (such as Donkey Kong and Super Mario Land 2, which is superior to the first). I really want them to add more VC games to the Eshop. It has been more than five weeks.

Played Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4 and Years 5-7--hilarious. I was sad when it was over, because I just wanted to keep going.
Playing Chrono Trigger. I've owned this for several years (in a Final Fantasy Chronicles collection), but never played it before now. I'm over halfway into it now (just defeated Magus in 600 AD and now in the Laruba Ruins with Ayla). It's pretty good for such an old game.
Has anyone played Star Ocean: Till the End of Time, Shadow Hearts, or Legend of the Dragoon? I have those, too, but never played them. Now that I have some free time, I'm trying to play all these. Also, (not expecting an answer, but) does any one have any opinions on which are the best pre-Final Fantasy VII games? VI is the one with Kefka, right?

Re-played Final Fantasy X. Love that one. I’m probably somewhat spoiled by the fact that there’s voice acting, which I prefer to simple text. Currently re-playing X-2. I know that game has had a lot of criticism over the years, but I kind of enjoy it (particularly the dress sphere battle system)--although it does feel like a way to allow fans to get what they want.

Finished Final Fantasy X-2 with the perfect ending, 100%! (btw, Trema was a huge thorn in my behind for the past two days) It wasn’t a great game; I just wanted to get perfect for once to see Tidus and Yuna reunited. I prefer happy endings, though I can appreciate how tragic the first game was.
Anyway, I’m re-playing VIII next. I bought the strategy guide via B&N, so I can play it without wandering in the dark like the last time. After that, I’ll either finish VII or go to one of the older games. The only pre-VII game I’ve played is I. I’ll try either IV, V, or VI. I plan to buy Dissidia duodecim soon, mainly for Yuna and Tifa more than anything (I wish they had Vivi and Balthier in there--I would love Lulu, but I know that would never happen, considering she wasn't a main character in X); the Dissidia games made me totally daydream about a Disney fighting game. I wish I had the interest to buy XIII-2, but not really. Maybe in the future.

XIII-2 is pretty okay-even good sometimes-but it still has some big pitfalls(not the least of which is how much story content seems to be dlc).
I've been rocking out the KH: Dream Drop Distance demo from 3DS eshop. though it's nothing compared to the E3 demo that I've seen videos of, it at least has all the gameplay tutorials-including an ursula tutorial boss-to get used to the combat, and a small traverse town section bookended by a cutscene and an out-of-context boss battle. The 3D is excellent most of the time, especially in said cutscene, but occassionally gets in your face during gameplay and I noticed some ghosting in certain parts.

The demo was okay. I hope the doors to the shops in Traverse Town aren't painted on in the actual game.ajmrowland wrote: I've been rocking out the KH: Dream Drop Distance demo from 3DS eshop. though it's nothing compared to the E3 demo that I've seen videos of, it at least has all the gameplay tutorials-including an ursula tutorial boss-to get used to the combat, and a small traverse town section bookended by a cutscene and an out-of-context boss battle.

I've been playing it very slowly, but it's a great game...
