#2 - The living proof that games can be masterpieces even with horrible framerates (looking at you, Breath of the Wild haters), though it later got a smooth-running remastered edition as part of a two-game collection.

Extra hint: sixteen.

So, I'm a bit late to the party as usual... happy new year people!

My #1 is not exactly one of the most beloved entries in its franchise.

#2 SotC?

#1 uhm... Skyward Sword? Pokemon X/Y (You havent listed Pokemon X/Y, right?)... Other M

2. Hint: At some point you can pay a guy and his dog to slay enemies.
Hint 2: A named sword is on the boxart of this game in some versions.
Hint 3: Both hint 1 and 2 make appearances in some shape or form in the newest game in the long standing series.
Hint 4: Hint 1 is Yojimbo, and Hint 2 is Brotherhood.
Hint 5: Maybe it's just a dream.

1 Hint: Over 100 million people have played this game at some point, and many like me have spent over 100 days /played on a single character.

I know #2 is an Assassins Creed, but I know nothing about AC

#1 sounds like a Mario game... or a PC game. Probably an old PC game I dont know about.

#1 - A Link Between Worlds

*facepalms for myself*

All according to plan.



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

1 - Super Mario Bros


This is the game that began everything for me. Certainly, Super Mario Bros 3 improved every aspect of it, but the core design, what makes Mario great, was already in this game, from the tight controls to the top notch level design, filled with secrets and surprises. I still remember my first 1-up mushroom, calling fire Mario “plumber Mario”, the secret blocks, the warp pipes… Objectively, Super Mario Bros 3 was a better game, but I can help to appreciate what this game did. Videogames and their language were a whole new world back then, and discovering it with this game was an unforgettable experience.

Lol. Thanks, it now looks like I didn't have anything else to do or have a life.

Oh, did you?

I suppose that being in the same continent (same hour zone) and having played many of the same games (you had many Nintendo and Strategy games, that also made most of my list) helped.
