Undertale is a fantastic game, almost perfect. One of the only things that was personally frustrating was being unaware of how to win certain battles.
Best 2-D Mario game by far. Loved it.

Every level and boss in this game feels fun and fair. The items and secrets are the best in the series so far, and holy shit did the final boss put a damper on everything that was previously established. This boss was genuinely impossible for me to beat until I used a save state halfway through the fight to reset and have a good run. This is probably the single worst final boss in a video game that I have played so far, and by far the worst Wiley in the series up to this point.

Very good game. Best base megaman imo.

Good game

Kirbys Adventure is a cute little platformer. My only complaints are that the enemies and stages are quite repetitive, and stretched across 7 worlds with 6 levels each. There were times when I was very bored, or zone out. But the Dedede fight and the final fight with Nightmare was AMAZING and SUPER fun.
Not a bad game in concept. In execution? It's terrible. Chibi art sytle ruins every impactful moment in the story, the animations and gameplay look terrible. The game made me fall asleep multiple times. It's soulless.

This MegaMan is pretty good. It's very hard, but it was satisfying to beat. Only real complaint is that sometimes the difficulty felt cheesy, but it was the NES so..

Megaman 3 has a stark difficulty curve from 2. Way less consumables drop from enemies and levels are generally harder, as well as some of the bosses being more difficult. Which isn't bad, but some of the difficulty felt kinda chees-y. Ironically, Wily's castle and final boss fight in this game is the easiest one so far. Sliding and Rush the Dog were 2 amazing additions to this game that made it feel sooooo much better than 2. Although I still like 2 way more. The introduction of proto-man and the reveal who he is later was also an amazing part of this game.

Very good game! Some of the levels have aged slightly poorly in my opinion, and I died a LOT learning how the levels work and operate. My only real complaint about controls was that run and roll are the same button. Super weird and made platforming in tight spaces very annoying. Otherwise great! Amazing final boss as well.
1987
I wish I could've played on NES but the game was pretty good. The men were fun to fight, the levels were fun and relatively fair. Only complaint is that the final bosses before Wiley are SUPER HARD!!! Without save states this game would've taken me weeks to beat.
1996
Game was pretty good. Only real complaint is that some levels have a STARK difficulty curve compared to the levels adjacent to them. Like sometimes a level will be super easy, followed by the hardest level I've played in the game, followed by a medium-difficulty level. It was jarring. Also, controlling a 3-D platformer with a D-pad was MISERABLE!! I know it's a product of it's time, but it still sucked. Also, saving the game was miserable too. You can't save and quit whenever you want, you have to beat a bonus stage.

Good ass game. First Mario that I really had fun with. Only real complaint is that sometimes stuff felt a bit bullshit-y.
For what it is, this game is fine. Only major complaint is that you NEED multiple skylanders to enjoy this game at all. It is not very fun to play through with only 1 skylander. I had a ton of fun but that's because I had almsot every single skylander while playing. You also cannot jump, which is incredibly annoying.
1989
This game is absolutely fantastic and holds up well. The difficulty is there, but manageable. It feels rewarding to slowly get better and better at the game until you understand your entire kit and can come up with clever ways to do things. Wonderful game!
