undertale is one of those games that is pretty cool, but people are a little too annoying about how you play it.

Genuinely the best start to gaming I could have had. But also so infinitely repayable that I still play it 10 years after I first started it which was already 10 years after the game was released. The gameplay is captivating and this really sets in stone that Pokemon did have the best grasp of turn based combat. All 151 pokemon are relatively easy to catch but the gym system while tough at first are easy later on with no real need to do grinding outside of normal trainer battles. The ice puzzle sections in sea foam islands were Gold then and Gold now.

Required an unreal amount of grinding for weapons and team members as a single player experience. Kind of wish I convinced more of my friends to play through it with me in co-op, which sounds like the ideal way to do it. That said, one of my favorite Metal Gear stories and has two incredible needle drops near the end. The last boss fight is pretty thrilling.

For some reason, my first Kingdom Hearts game. My obsession with Trading Card Games and Disney was a winning combination for this, even though it was technically a sequel to a game I had only seen in commercials and I only had a vague idea of what was going on in the story. I'm still delighted whenever I see a virtual card game within a game because of this one.

Don’t have any memory of this game past the first flying level, and that’s because it’s so bad I could never get past the first flying level.

Ignited my love for fully customizable characters. Adorable Gamecube jank and had some pretty decent minigames. I remember playing Drawn to Life on DS and being pretty disappointed that the character creator system there didn’t allow for nearly as much depth as this. Fully drawing your own character from scratch still looks scary, though….

I really like the premise and there are too few games that let you play as a the stooge villain group. It could have benefitted from more variety in game types and the respawn speed of enemies on some levels is way too fast.

Every school setting needs a group of goth kids

nostalgia dictates that i can't give this game under a 2 1/2 but modern wisdom and a relatively recent revisit tell me i cant give it anything over a 1 1/2 so in order to placate both my inner child and my adult mind i just will not rate it at all

pikachu so fucking annoiyng but i love to watch tv. This is pokemon at it's most ambitious

Rot your brain while watching Pikachu rot his brain. He won't let me outside. I'm trapped, please help me.

He keeps guessing incorrectly at the quiz show and we're in extreme debt. I've seen Pichu Bros. 3,934 times and he still laughs when the Houndoom dies. I can't take it anymore.

I love this game. But it kinda sucks. I think my favorite parts of the game were spent away from Pikachu's television.

I'm sorry, but, why would I want to play a game where I literally just watch a yellow rat watch TV all day? Baffling concept. Yet I ate that shit up as a kid, as one does!

To be fair though, it is as advertised. i do be watching pokemon channels 👀

idk I don't think I liked the TV even as a kid, tbh. I mostly just played to have fun with Pikachu. he my best buddy fr 🥺

Interesting concept, but I feel like it was always doomed to fail. It's hard to work with a concept like that, especially in a game. They do the best they can but at the end of the day, it's just boring.

that being said GIVE US MORE SLICE OF LIFE PIKACHU GAMES PLEASE but make them better ok thx :)

for some reason i revisited this so much my senior year of high school ?

im so endeared by it. theres not a ton to it, but damn if it isnt adorable.

when I got this at like age 8 the guy at gamestop told me "uhhh you might not like it there's not a whole lot to do" and he was right but idc idc i love games where i do nothing
