woo, filling another major hole in my experience with nintendo first party games. this seems pretty ahead of its time! and i don't just mean because of the gay romantic tension between fox & his tsundere boyfriend falco. i can only imagine how this 3dish space combat must've blown kids' minds in the snes era.
i played this game a ton as a child & found it again on a website that has lots of abandonware on it! so much nostalgia. so glad i finally figured out what game it was.

me: lol sure
this movie: [a character offers another character drugs]
me: [waiting for the edibles i took earlier to kick in] ... wait...

this game rules! all the enemies are hot buff furries or dominatrixes!! my only complaint is that i'm expected to fight back instead of just letting them beat me up? seems fake.
for lthe longest time if you asked me to name my favorite video game of all time it was a dead heat between this & ocarina of time. and it's not really that they were ever surpassed. (well... i think wind waker surpassed ocarina of time, actually, but that's another conversation.) it's just that our understanding of what a video game can be changed drastically.
but like... in terms of what we understood video games to be in the 90s, this is still (and always will be) the absolute pinacle to me.

this is so much easier as an adult??? i played this in one sitting in bed while my nesting partner snoozed next to me. i didn't use level warp pipes because i wanted to experience the whole game. i think this is the first time i've actually beaten this??? still very nostalgic, though, as this is the first video game i really remember playing.

this game meant a lot to me because it let you be gay at the time when i was first realizing i was gay.
this let you make your own custom league from scratch and that was super awesome to young me. the game itself was pretty horrible with horrible graphics compared to madden games of the time, but eh.

have you ever wanted to play tetris with a bunch of battery-draining ads? this gives u the chance to play tetris with a bunch of battery-draining ads! a perfectly fine way to pass the time while you're waiting for a table at applebee's or something.
sonic 2 is perfect. transposing knuckles into it is a fun novelty but it makes the game feel a lot lonelier, and honestly it feels a little worse for it? (sonic & tails 4ever.) but i mean it's still sonic 2. it's not a bad game by any stretch of the imagination.

even as far as nes sports games go, this is kinda trash. it's just not even a little fun.

i hecking love dr. mario. i know it's just a pretty simple puzzle game but idk. i played it a lot growing up & i had some friends in college who liked to play it, and i just have a lot of fond memories of it.
plus i'm better at it than all my partners, so.

a pretty not great puzzle game tbh
this rules. i play this with several of my partners on a pretty regular basis, and one time i even played with my entire polycule together. it seriously rules.
this game is so wholesome, and it let my partner & i build something together, and everything is just so nice & lovely. you just water flowers & befriend animal cuties & send letters to your friends. i always used to think it sounded boring but it's not it's just... so, so good.
we're pretty sure we lost our island when our switch died. we sent it to the nintendo repair center & i guess there's some small hope it could come back with the island intact, but we're reasonably sure it's lost :( and we went through actual grief over this. we loved our island so much, and we love how it helped us express our love for each other.
