It's never been a competition, but I don't think I have the time to match his current stride.
I think we're tied, but I expect you to inch ahead soon. Summer is RPG season for me. I'd like to replay a few classics this year like Phantasy Star, Dragon Warrior, Shining in the Darkness, and a few others. This will grind my list down to a halt. I may attempt Eye of the Beholder as well.

Not quite. With the exception of notorious quarter-munchers like the Midway shooters, Metal Slug games, and Magician Lord everything else was played/replayed until I could finish it on a dollar or two.

While it's still an effective way to level up the game has been rebalanced so you don't need to do this. You are given HP increases at regular intervals.

Ys I & II will appear on this list again...

I'll get to it soon! It's been in my DS the entire time I was playing I & II. When I needed a break from I & II I'd fire up III and play with the previous owner's save file. Looks like a quality port.
