this game honestly hasn't really left a good first impression on me thus far. the gameplay is overcomplicated and forces you to go through a long-ass tutorial before you can even start properly playing (unless you either place within the top 4 in a difficult and well-hidden race or enter a secret password) and basic gameplay features like online play, addons and even time trials are locked behind winning grand prix cups (unless, again, you enter a secret password).
I REALLY wanna like this game more as I dig its presentation, but it just doesn't seem to be my cup of tea.
as for the passwords I was talking about, "gaster" lets you skip the tutorial, "Wi-Fi Warrior" unlocks online play and "McDonalds" unlocks addons.

1999
as a pretty big dr. slump fan, I thought this game was decent, even though the level design was kinda jank and the character designs were the mostly-inferior 1997 ones (though the hilltop fan translation does allow you to revert arale's outfit and hair colour to her original one)
the aesthetic is probably the game's biggest strength, lol

pretty good start to the SFC goemon games, though I don't like how there's two parts in the game where you have to pay a sizable amount of ryo just to progress to the next area
everyone seems to have it out for this remake, but I don't actually think it's that bad (though that might be because I haven't actually played the original PS1 version yet)
that said though, I do agree with the general consensus that porting a game reliant on a dual-stick control system to a handheld that only has one analog stick just wasn't a good idea...

I don't have much experience with RPGs (the only non-mario ones I've played as of this writing are tomato adventure, sonic chronicles and miitopia), but I think this one was pretty decent
the sprites look nice, the music is rather catchy, the story is pretty good and feels like an episode of the show, and the battle system has a pretty interesting friendship mechanic. not only that, but the characters exclusive to this game are also criminally underrated IMO
it does have a few problems though. for instance, there's not a lot of variety in locations since the game mostly takes place on an island, which also makes it a bit easy to get lost (not helped by the lack of a map). the voice clips during battle also get rather tiresome after a while, but they can be turned off.
overall though, I'd still recommend giving this a shot, especially if you're a tokyo mew mew fan
