Megas

My parents never liked Blockbuster so we never went lol When I lived in California, I used to have one near the old Target and one in Albertsons we loved frequented, especially for the Genesis/SNES/N64 games. Unfortunately the one near Target closed and the one in Albertsons phased out games before getting rid of it entirely. I miss rental stores so much

Chocolate Chip are always my fam

MMC Ventus I'm so glad I can actually finish Defensor without worrying about the dumbass tariffs

I got a preorder secured at Gamestop and it's kind of emblematic of the importance of in person shopping. I had a surprisingly good time waiting in line and have always wanted to do a midnight launch

Transformers The Movie exclusively for the Lion Theme Visually, I love the Sonic credits for using the franchise's trademark spritework

Stood in line for 3 hours to get my Switch 2 preorder

This forum will be biased toward some certain singers and bands but I’ll take Killer Todu any day

FUCK I FORGOT X-MEN 97

1993 for me, I'm realizing I haven't seen a ton of 1993 movies, or at least as much as I remember, some I should get around to watching at some point like Schindler's List, Nightmare Before Christmas and Batman: Mask of the Phantasm 2 movies I do remember loving a lot though were Sandlot and Hocus Pocus, so for now those two are my picks

I do but all I have are some play throughs of Castlevania IV and Mega Man X. Otherwise I just use it to comment

Probably adding to this Metroid - Other M. A very ambitious title that got almost everything wrong unfortunately. Wanted to make Samus a more complex character, but just made her look weak. Made Adam Malkovich a very unlikeable character. Not being able to use certain abilities until you're told to is just a really dumb design choice. Final Fantasy - Having not played All The Bravest, I'll go with Mystic Quest. It's just not a very good game. Combat is too simple and characters, world, and story are just very unremarkable and uninteresting Star Fox - Zero. The motion controls really just bring the game down, you spend a lot of time fighting the controls more than the actual enemies in the game. But even if those were addressed, it's still just a not a good or interesting game. 10 year wait for a new game and the best you could do is a retelling of a reimagining of a game you just remade 5 years earlier(see how many "re-"s there are?) When the game is being compared to NSMB, that's probably not a good thing Resident Evil - Honestly there's plenty you could probably put here like Survivor and Umbrella Corp and they'd be appropriate, but from the ones I've played it's Operation Racoon City. They tried hard to go after the CoD crowd even more than RE6, and it just didn't land at all Yakuza - Dead Souls easily. Another zombie game for a franchise that really doesn't warrant it. It's a better effort that MG Survive admittedly, it still has a bit of Yakuza's trademark silliness from time to time(Daigo crossdressing, Majima being Majima), but the series has notoriously bad gun combat and building an entire game based around said gun combat wasn't the best idea. Unfortunately the game had a huge part in the series being put on ice in the west until Yakuza 0 came out

Killer Is Dead. I usually like Suda51 games, his games are almost always known for being very weird(though usually in a fun and endearing way), but that game was a bit too out there even by his standards

Ashleigh Ball, especially given she’s pretty elusive in the MLP Con scene

That was a decision beyond Bowser, given it was also hidden from Japanese and European directs. Sounds like a Furukawa blunder

Everyone always gushes over MMPR’s theme but I love Turbo’s theme. It’s right up there for me

For Superheroes have usually been Captain America, Spider-Man and the X-Men for villains, I know he’s usually less seen as a villain now but I’ve always loved Magneto
