As someone who massively enjoys/appreciates Pokemon SwSh personally, calling them the 'best games in the series' even at the time was a WILD statement 😭

also I know that NSMBU is already on here, but their NSMBWii review where they critique the game non-stop for about 10 minutes before slapping it with an 8.9/10 and saying the immortal words 'it has a little something for everyone' has lived rent-free in my head for YEARS.

Enjoying the game on your initial playthrough before dropping it at Eagle Tower sounds like the most universal Link's Awakening experience honestly XD (I love LA myself but yikes that dungeon is pain incarnate)
