Big fat nope to this.

Anyways, while I'm extremely good at fps games, I fail at shmups and fighting games. Especially fighting games. Which sucks because I actually like the genre a fair bit. Same with shmups.

Okay, so maybe not a conclusion, but an uneducated assumption about the difficulties of real-life racing.

Trying to figure out what to use the rest of my Wii points on. I'm thinking DoReMi Fantasy, Ogre Battle: The March of the Black Queen, and Ogre Battle 64. Those should keep me busy for a while.

I might even have enough left over for Mega Man 9 or 10.....hmm......

Mega Man 9 would be my first priority from that list of titles. :) DOREMI was fun but noting too special and I'm not big on the Ogre genre so yeah, MM!

Cheers for him. Was a cordial dude too.

I can't figure out why people bother with 3ds play coins at all.

Well, I've been wanting DoReMi for a while, but I'm not willing to pay ebay prices for the damn thing, so VC version it is. I've also been wanting to try out March of the Black Queen for a while too, but I may skip on Ogre Battle 64 and just get Mega Man 9 and 10 instead. I think I have enough points and I do love me some Mega Man :D

Sometimes when I get disappointed in the modern gaming scene, I like to retreat back into my backlog and think of it as a place full of ragtag misfits where everybody knows my name and is always glad I came. Cheers to you, my unfinished friends.

I really wish shareware/trial version model games would come back. Really like trying before buying.
