The throwbacks and Easter eggs in Donkey Kong Bananza are delightful. I absolutely just stumbled into a Stickerbrush Symphony section. Makes me so happy!

You know what I love in a JRPG? Attacks that one shot you regardless of your equipment, levels, or abilities. Great mechanics. Looking at you Bravely Default!

Happy 25th anniversary to Final Fantasy IX! FF9 builds upon the great mechanics of its predecessors while introducing a moving and engaging story. For JRPG fans, this game is a must play. I still hope the @square-enix-games.com gives us a remake one day!

This art from @square-enix-games.com for the 25th anniversary of Final Fantasy IX is just beautiful. Perhaps the time is ripe for a replay?

Just read that Microsoft cancelled the Perfect Dark reboot and shuttered the studio. I was looking forward to that. I guess I’ll go replay Perfect Dark on N64 instead.

Just picked up Rocket Knight Adventures for Genesis. This has been on my wish list for a while. Excited to rocket through this one soon.

If you ever wanted a Panzer Dragoon clone with corny FMVs and music by Zuntata, then Gamera 2000 on the Playstation was made exactly for you.

For a 1997 licensed game, it's held up quite nicely. A short but fun ride that you won't regret.
