Games I Played in 2021 ranked
The Omoris, the Meat Boy Forevers, and the Florences in between. So I don't get too scorched, I'll only be adding games I played at least till the halfway point, or if it's a special case, like a multiplayer online game or Bubsy. Still a bad list for metroidvania fans, sorry.

The best Zelda game, and it's not even traditionally a Zelda game.
A game that I can 100% any time, any place. Some of the smoothest 3D movements I have ever saw, with a fun gimmick in the form of Cappy, and fan service in the form of all the costumes and Pauline returning. This is easily the best switch game, period.
Well, it's an ok game, but not really that memorable for me. Sadly must give it the cold shoulder.
Blame this game for causing Sonic to floss in his movie.
Raise a toast and take a sip for one of the most challenging and fun boss rush styled games ever.
Definitely loses its allure with the pandemic being dealt with more and more.
Your watch shift is finally over.
Oh, the village of shadows was foreshadowing the events of the game. Clever.
The first of the SNES trilogy, and a pretty decent time.
Ah, now THIS is what Super Meat Boy is all about! Precise, challenging yet fair and fun platforming.
Chaos! Chaos!
Still not a Metroid fan, sorry.
One of the best “walking simulator” games I ever saw that manages to do some cool and unique stuff with its gameplay and story-telling.
I would have been on the Nintendo side of the console wars.
Yeah, with Bowser's Fury and Mario Odyssey in the mix, this game looks more and more inferior by the second.
It feels like a dream for a game to be this good. Amazing side content, some of the best fighting in any rpg, a gripping overall mystery that I wanted to solve, writing that can be serious or humorous when the mood calls for it, great written characters, and it stars the MVP, Kel. Can’t recommend this highly enough.
The only Metroid game I can see myself replaying with a smile on my face.
Now is your chance to be a [BRAND NEW MEME!]
The best museum I have ever been to.
A definite improvement over the original. Tropical Freeze still did it better.
The fact that I got a PS5 just for this game should say it all. The fact that it’s worth says more than enough.
A unique and fresh new gameplay style with a clever story about how to overcome your obstacles in life.
The open-world and entry fees killed this game for me
Pokemon Unite to make a League Of Legends clone and make money off of kids with $40 skins.
Sonic forces me to keep on writing these notes to tell my opinions on these games. At least it was gone and done in around 3 hours.
The best of laid plans can be messed up by a tree giving you an extra roll.
A short yet fun game from my childhood.
Not as rich in gameplay as I like, but makes up for it more than enough with great writing.
The peak of the pencil meets the peak of the series.
A nice shinier coat for a nice and shiny PS2 game that deserved a rerelease. Now we just need the rest of the series.
Needs a bit more polishing, but I still like it.
Week 7 singlehandedly brought this game up to this high up.
Look, guys! Look! It's the birth of one of history's greatest achievements, Wario!
Congratulations Nephews! Hope you had fun with your first Kirby game, even if I carried the ending finale. Hopefully, Kirby Star Allies is easier for the three of you.
Are you SURE there wasn't painful fluff that could have been removed?
The birth of one of the quirkiest series ever.
I'm just not a Metroid fan, sorry.
Yeah, I can see why this series became a cult classic.
Kind of soaked in too much praise, but it's still a fun platformer.
Kind of bug and kind of snack! Your friends are never coming back!
When you need to test out a new peripheral, the WarioWare crew is there to help you.
Smooth moves moves smoothly
Thank you for being the best way to earn Platinum Nintendo Points.
Stops just as it picks up.
This pretty much fixed up all the problems of the predecessor and gave us some the best boss fights ever saw.
Now, this is a COOL 2D Platformer!
...Ok, too obvious.
...Ok, too obvious.
My camera is filled! Stop with the camera games!
Bowser stubs his toe at 3AM and gets angry.
What is a gas car, and why is it mad?
Oh yeah, this title screamed for Multiplayer fun.
More like punching up to your enemies.
The best of the series, and a great way to promote the series on the switch.
Wake me up when Chuckie Chan is added in.
I think I had to be grown up on old NES games to truly appreciate this game.
One of the better beat 'em up games I played this year.
The superior rhythm game; sorry FNF. Maybe when you’re fully out.
This meme game has no right to be this good.
The gold standard of the WarioWare series. One of the best games for the 3DS to go out on.
100% RNG will fuck you over.
Definitely the most depressing of the Shovel Knight Treasure Trove stories, but still great fun.
The peak of Shovel Knight, with fun gameplay moves, a surprisingly engaging love story, and basically being Shovel Knight but betters makes this an absolute blast.
What a colorful world with a heartfelt story.
I was having a ball with this game, even if some of the levels did make me go bananas.
Neku’s character is one of the best I ever saw in fiction; if not that, then THE best.
Seriously, the camera roll is getting too big.
This game has that fill in the box game; making it a good game.
Forget tarot readings; who was your Miitopia team?
Dodgeball but with more pain and having to rely on teammates actually being decent.
A cute game for only $1 and can be beaten in an hour. This was made for speedrunning.
The very definition of a childhood classic.
Sonic colors in the coding for this game and ruins a remake.
The most lighthearted and comedic Shovel Knight adventure, with great gameplay and disappointing your mother.
Finally, best boy Hop is here!
There was a game. Someone had to say it.
Mario Golf Super Rushed out and weaker than the 3DS and Gamecube game.
Medi-actually pretty damn good.
The hit-or-miss nature of the gyro controls really hindered it.
Oh hey, speaking of which.
Poker Night with the Indies; Sunny, Zagreus, Hat Kid, Peacock, with Crow as the dealer. Make it happen.
Uninstalling this game gave me a confidence boost.
It was fun while it lasted, but I don't see myself paying for it again with NSO unless Nintendo gives up a new expansion pass as free DLC for it.
Ah, now this is the true Toree 3D killer!
My brain is too small brain for this.
I went into this game wanting to just replay the main story. Ended up getting all the cousins, presents, and beat Katamari Drive mode. It’s that addicting.

Problems really start to rise when I tried out the 3rd acts. The biggest problem for me was that I actually still had a fun time.
This is a certified crib classic!
The best demon now cooks apple pies. Her might is limitless.
The worst 3D platformer I played this year. Rest easy Balan Wonderworld.
This is the true neighborhood horror game Hello Neighbor wished it was.
If a literal walking corpse can get a girlfriend, so can you.
Minis March off a cliff.
It was literally for free and a decent game; a good combo.
There is disrespecting a classic, and there is spitting on the corpse and complaining about how it was too good. This game was cutting the corpse up and eating it in front of its children.
Now this is a game that deserves a encore!
So this is the true power of the Gangster's paradise.
Pochi carried this game, hard.
I'm going to run out of film doing these "SNAP!" memes.
Definitely leagues better than the other platforming Fairy Oddparents game.
The only thing I remember about this game was the indie characters.
