Childhood Game Collection (INCOMPLETE)
The games that I owned throughout my childhood. Not a complete list as I simply cannot remember every game I’ve ever owned, but all the major ones will be here. I haven’t played many of these games in a very long time so I’ll only have stuff to say about a select few. For the purposes of this list I’m classifying everything before high school as my childhood.
127 Games
All the criticisms of Gameboy Advance Video are extremely valid, but being able to watch TV shows and movies on my GBA blew my mind as a kid.

Probably the most honest video game title in existence. Really basic shmup but hey, it’s only two bucks.

Wartime drama mixed with a heavy dose of anime bullshit and I was OBSESSED. So obsessed I would name characters in other video games after rhis game’s main character.

I’ll admit, one of the first things I did in this game was type in ‘sex’ to see what it would make.

I would be more than happy with Rockstar releasing these smaller-scale top-down handheld GTA games in between the main ones, but alas.

I think this is the greatest PSP game ever made, and I would consider it the greatest rhythm game of all time if Theatrhythm Final Fantasy didn’t exist.

I desperately want Rockstar to bring back Midnight Club but they’re not going to since it doesn’t sell a bajillion copies like GTA.

It was this weird touch screen based top-down third person shooter with first-person brawling sections. A real odd title.

I had let my cousin play my copy of this game with a 100% complete save file. When I got the game back from him and saw that he had deleted said save file, that was the closest I had ever come to strangling somebody.

My uncle visited one time and just gave me a copy of this and LocoRoco. I found the cheat code for infinite grinds and basically ruined the game for myself but I had a ton of fun.

At the time I didn’t care much about Star Wars (watching Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith had convinced me that Star Wars was boring) beyond thinking Obi-Wan and Yoda were cool, but this shit was my life in middle school.

My mom let me pick out one game at Walmart, and for some reason, out of all the games on the shelf, I picked this one. It’s a choice I have never and will never forgive myself for. God, they probably had Superstar Saga or Golden Sun and I picked this bullshit.

Fun story: I accidentally stole this game from Walmart. This happened when I was 7 years old. After getting the game off the shelf, I, absolutely enamored with it, walked around the store with the box in my hands staring at it the entire time we did the rest of our shopping. When we went to checkout I was still holding the box and neither my mom nor the cashier noticed that I still had it, so it never got scanned. It wasn’t until we were halfway home that we realized we had left the store without paying for the game. This turned out to be a good thing because this game sucks.

The first first person shooter I ever played. I unfortunately didn’t appreciate it at the time because I was a dumb kid who wanted to be playing CoD 4 like everybody else.

I put both this and Season of Ice on here not because I owned both but because I can’t remember which one I owned, I just know I owned one of them. Anyway, it seems Vicarious Visions’ calling was converting Playstation 3D platformers into 2D GBA games.
