#25: Features one of the best physics engines, nothing pre-rendered, but it sure LOVES cliffhangers.

#22: If it weren't for this game, the series would be dead.

#25: Uncharted? 2?

#22: Fire Emblem Awakening

Yep



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

#26 Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Even though SSBB isn't my favourite game from the previous console generation, it is most likely the one I spent by far the most amount of time playing. I have literally thousands of matches played in the game, most with my friends. Melee was the first game in the series that I played, and it was equally popular among our group, but the general consensus among us is that Brawl is the better game, even if many people seem to disagree with that. The only real complaint I have is the pointless inclusion of tripping as a gameplay element. It only served as an annoyance for the most part, and when it didn't it was just completely pointless. I did consider putting Smash 4 on the list instead, but I simply haven't had enough time to play it. Maybe next year?

And here's your hint for #25:

A seriously disfunctional family battle for the control of a powerful multinational company in this 3D fighting game. This particular game sees the grandson of the current owner take control of the company by defeating his great-grandfather.

#23: The long awaited sequel featuring new characters with a pretty amazing control scheme (which was apparently patched in a year after release.)

Pikmin 3.

Tekken... 5?

Edit: also, spam warning. Be ready people.

That's the one. The best game in the series in my opinion.

Yeah, from the few ones I've played 5 was indeed the most memorable one... and just a joy to play.

So, just to finish my spam session, here's a few hints for the next few games:
#26 - This racing game had some of the best DLC ever both in terms of value and quality.

#26: Mario Kart 8



Signature goes here!

Metroid Fusion as guessed by mZuzek

I'm still kicking myself about the fact that I missed 'Metroid Fusion' during the time the GameBoy Advance was the prominent Nintendo handheld. As it turned out, it was the best game in the franchise and the best original game on the system for sure. It even was one of the best handheld games ever. If only I knew sooner, but I had mostly abandoned the handheld and console-gaming as a whole beforehand sadly.

Contrary to earlier games in the series, the game focuses more on the story progression and less on the exploration, though there's still enough exploring to do after the game opens up later on. The story is almost that of a survival horror game, and takes the roots of the series in the movie 'Alien' further than ever before. Famous series protagonist Samus is stranded on an abandoned space station after answering a distress call and finds a species of parasites have taken over all life. One of the parasites takes the shape of Samus herself after she gets infected and needs to part with her famous suit.

This antagonist is named "SA-X", and is certainly one of the best antagonists in video-game history. It haunts you throughout the game, and an encounter, even though scripted in the story, is genuinely terrifying. All you want is flee and hide when it appears. The whole game is able to ooze that eerie atmosphere all-around, and had I played it when it came out, it would even have severely helped my perception of the GameBoy Advance system as a whole.



Wow, halfway already, really getting into some personal legends of games now.

#25: Where one would usually use their feet or hands, in this game it's mostly about weapons.
