One of my favorite Pokémon games. An engaging and charming ride with loveable characters, fun and interesting scenarios, and a really good story/set of story arches for a Pokémon game. Not to mention, the last good Pokémon Mystery Dungeon game, in my opinion.
2016
Honestly a little underrated as a Pokémon game. The unskippable cutscenes are irritating, and the early game drags on harder than any other Pokémon game, but once you get past that it's solid.
This score is for 3D All Stars as a collection. I have individual reviews for the games in the collection already. It's mediocre at best, and really has no reason to exist, especially without Mario Galaxy 2. Nothing much was actually done to the games to improve them, be that gameplay tweaks or graphics; it's not even really a remaster collection, it's a repackaging collection. If you want to play these three games on Switch and that's all you want to do, then this is great, but if you're looking for a solid remaster that makes improvements and adds more than just the games' soundtracks, then this is very disappointing.
Just play Platinum.
2013
Same as my X review.
Tied for my favorite mainline Pokémon game.
My personal favorite mainline Pokémon, without nostalgia goggles that is. I've replayed this one more times than I can count.
The best version of Super Star.
Such a fun and charming RPG, one of my favorites (if not my favorite) Mario and Luigi titles.
2019
Such a charming and fun game, and gorgeous to boot.
2004
The best version of the game, in my opinion.
An absolute classic. So colorful, so fun, so infuriating sometimes, but a great time nonetheless. While a tad floaty, it's a wonderful journey through a coloring-book world filled with happy music and varied landscapes. The platforming is solid and satisfying and the mechanics are fun with just enough variety to keep things interesting. With a whole truckload of creativity and fun, this is a must-play for platforming fans.
My personal favorite Zelda game.
Makes the base game a LOT better. With the expansion pass, Sword/Shield moves up to 4 stars.
2019
Had some promise, but just ended up being a mid-tier Pokémon game. Play it if you're a fan of the series, or for series completionist purposes.
