It's fine. It's kind of adorable but very unsettling and the gameplay was nothing to write home about.
2018
Pretty mid. Immediately forgot about it right after I beat it. That being said I can't say anything that was necessarily bad, just that it was boring. It was still engaging enough where I completed it.
2017
played a handful of hours and had fun but wasn't blown away personally.

Pretty fun arcade racer with creative courses and surprising racers. Great gameplay but it’s a shame that this has no online.
Don't think this needs much of an explanation. A horribly aged and massively overrated game given a "makeover" that consisted of making it look worse and exposing its flaws more clearly. Complete lazy cash grab riddled with glitches in a game that already sucks. Yikes.

Just beat this I know that there is an epilogue but I really loved this game. I was ready to claim that the importance of mental health in this game was overstated up until the last 2 chapters. What a great story and what a truly exceptional platformer as well. It's challenging, but not impossible. The movement is so smooth and the level design super creative via the obstacles and such the developers place. Super satisfying and great collectibles with the strawberries and cassettes. Tons of variety and each chapter area feels fresh and distinct from one another. Cool platforming boss fights. Great OST as well. Highly recommend this one and marks the first game I've completed and then reviewed!

The incredibly fun and addicting gameplay of Panel De Pon but with a Pokémon skin over it… so it’s better.
played this for a handful of hours and had my fill. It left me fairly disappointed. Feels like poor-man's Skyrim. Maybe I just wasn't in the mood for this type of game and this style of RPG has been tired for me. Gave it another chance and came away with the same feeling. Not bad, just ok from what I played.

I absolutely recognize this game's revolutionary and legendary status 100%, but every single time I have attempted to play this game from start to finish, I get frustrated by the outdated controls and lose all motivation. Amazing OST and I know its objectively a masterpiece, its just simply not fun to play for me. I'll return to this someday to try and see what others see. It just hasn't aged well at all imo.
Nintendo fumbled the bag horrendously with this one. A new entry in one of the most successful franchises and the first one in years comes out the oven barely cooked. Very small amounts of content and no improvements or signs of innovation. The least they could have done was supply GOLF at launch lolll. Instead it came out when everyone stopped caring. The core gameplay is what you'd expect, but this gets boring after a short while because all the sports are one note and there's little meat to the bone. Skip this. EDIT: 1.5 --> 2.5 Golf is actually really great and I've had a few sessions of playing this game recently which were really fun.

I really dug this, really damn great Metroid game. Yeah it strives from being a metroidvania and is more linear, but I don't mind really. Love the series new movements and more precise aiming. Great bosses and story as well. Check it out. 4.5 ★
Immaculate action game and the absolute peak of the genre. I had a really bad impression of this game when I booted this up on series X as there was a really awful bug, most likely caused by the HDR performance mode. This rendered my game unplayable until I finally found the problem. Aside from that this game is just masterful man. Ton of combos, weapons, and setups that provide endless fun. This game is just raw and insane . All three playable characters in the base game are all uniquely enjoyable to use. OST is incredible as well. Seriously, this game is just dope. You will be hard pressed finding an action game with better combat and gameplay. A must play. I will say the story is nothing insanely deep or incredible but it doesn't really matter at all and it still manages to have an emotional weight to it. It's still very fun. Capcom made a true modern action game masterclass. 5/5 ★

I genuinely don't get the massive hate for this. Like yeah it's not as good as 2 but that doesn't mean its an abomination lol. I played and beat this at least like 7 times trying to learn how to speedrun it because it's really short. Definitely the worst of the remakes but still a damn good game.
This game is still great and 100% holds up. This is still so much superior to the 2017 one its not even funny. And it's not just rose tinted glasses, I recently played a good amount and was still as fun as I remember.
