A great port of two incredible games. Both titles hold up amazingly well and are just as charming and creative as ever, and the new visual shine definitely brings them to life.
I feel like this package could have more content in it, personally though. Both included games will keep you entertained but I do wish they had included the handheld games as a bonus.
Also not including Klonoa Beach Volleyball is a crime and is the true reason i'm knocking one star off the rating.

Did they rush this out the door? Yes. But I still think that it's a wonderful game and it just feels so much fresher than Sword & Shield did.
The cast and story this time feels so much more charming and well realised, the sense of freedom you get might be overwhelming at first, but it really does feel so good to explore. And the speed at which you can actually catch Pokémon makes the gameplay loop so addicting.
Also, probably one of the best soundtracks in a Pokémon game by far.

I'm not totally in love with this games combat, or the lack of diversity in the cyberspace stages, but everything else was amazing honestly. I loved the gameplay loop of exploring each island, and the bosses are such huge spectacles that I don't even mind that the controls are a little wonky.
Great story too for a Sonic fan like me and i'm excited to see where they take the series now. Please learn from this game's succeses Sega, this is what Sonic needs.

Did not vibe with this. Humor wasn't my style and there's just a lack of character to the visuals. The pacing just wasn't doing it for me either.

Unfortunate case of a really great kart racer getting shafted by an overall lack of content. The actual racing is really fun and I love the visuals and music. But it just falls short when it comes to content.
I don't know if the multiplayer has gotten any less grindy since release but that was also a major sticking point for me.

A cute game with a very charming art style. Takes after DanganRonpa and Phoenix Wright a lot, and it's definitely an enjoyable experience. I wouldn't say it's anything spectacular though and despite how strong the visuals are, I don't think the game really stuck with me or really made a lasting impact.
A great sci-fi mystery, with charming and colourful pixel art. The world feels really well fleshed out and the characters are written really well. The voice acting is great and the music is wonderful. Turing is my robot son, I love him.

I don't know what it was about this game that caught my attention as a child, but i'm sure glad I took a chance on it. For the time this was great value and the presentation and additional game modes made it all the more enticing to come back.

Not a game series I originally thought I would be into, but after giving it a shot, I was pleasantly surprised by this. Fun game, and while I wouldn't say i'm a diehard fan, i'm definitely interested in trying out other games from the series.
So far the only Advance Wars game i've finished and gosh, I loved it but wow, I kinda suck at these games. Still, I love the character designs here and the music has such a great style to it. Really engaging game!

After playing the second game, I can definitely see how basic this one is by comparison. However, I appreciate the arcade style feel of it and there's something appealing about that early installment weirdness.
Could not get over how generic this game felt. I feel like it was trying to parody a lot of typical anime tropes but it just wasn't that funny, or that interesting. The gameplay loop and combat wasn't much better, and it felt super repetitive after a while.
Didn't do a whole lot for me. I feel like that might make me heartless to some people, but I just couldn't really make a emotional connection here, and that's a big issue.
I remember enjoying this, and it definitely got under my skin once or twice. I think the lovecraftian vibes and the gloomy setting stuck with me the most, although I don't find the story super interesting in hindsight.
Great premise for a visual novel! It's been a while since my own playthrough, but I remember loving it. The presentation is simple but well constructed, and the same can be said of the story as well.
