Could 28 be Wind Waker?

And 22... F-Zero?

28 is correct! 

22 is not! 

50 - Joe & Mac
49 - Pokemon Sword/Shield
48 - Minecraft
47 - Guitar Hero II
46 - New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe
45 - Portal
44 - Rock Band 2
43 - Red Dead Redemption
42 - Mega Man X4
41 - Resident Evil 4
40 - The Messenger
39 - Axiom Verge
38 - Terraria
37 - Demon's Souls Remastered
36 - Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag
35 - Final Fantasy IX
34 - Pokemon Red/Blue
33 - Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
32 - Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal
31 - Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice

30 - Rule 63 at its finest.

29 - One of the most complicated battle systems for its genre, but allows you to completely wreck the game from the beginning if you know what you're doing.

28 - The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker

27 - I don't get it, this game has a 'last of the species' plot...that's actually a recurring theme in the series even though each entry repeats it.

26 - The villain has a point, his son is your rival, and it's the best entry in the series in my opinion. Can't wait till the remakes in a few years.

25 - The first time I played the original, I didn't like it all that much. some parts of the games had no frames. the entry is the remaster, which some hated but I loved!

24 - Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island

23 - Duane and Brand-O's most popular song.

22 - This is the weakest entry in this series, but it sold the most and was one of the best-selling game on the SNES - My favourite console.

21 - God of War (2018)

#21: Hint: Just going to make it more specific, should be easy: you can choose one of three paths. The most recent game in the series.



#24: Xenoblade Chronicles 2

I keep writing way to much, so I'll try to keep it a bit shorter here.

This is the first Xenoblade game I played. At first I played it in handheld mode and despite the low resolution it looks very pretty. Then I switched to docked mode and oh my god does this look gorgeous.

The characters are all great with wonderful dynamics between them and great dialogue. While there might be a bit to many cut scenes they're all enjoyable and never feel like filler. The story is amazing. At the end I felt similar to what I described with Ys IX, I was sad that it was over. It was a wonderful long journey that I will always cherrish. It is a story that you never forget and that sticks with you.

Some of the music is great, though it's not quite on the level of Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition, as I found out later.

The battle system needs a bit getting used to but ultimately it's great fun. The level design and environments are fantastic, you can't expect anything else from Monolith. Topnotch.

Xenoblade Chronicles is a fantastic, gorgeous game, among the very best on the Switch, with an anazing story and characters. Like most long JRPGs it's not something that I'll replay anytime soon, but I don't need to since it's so memorable.

This is a top of the shelf JGPG, an absolute must play.



^Welp, failed to keep it shorter.



#23: Super Paper Mario

Awesome game, filled to the brim with awesome and creative ideas. It just oozes character and creativity in it's character and enemy design as well as it's level design, story and world building.

We need more Paper Mario games with this level of creativity. The Origami King is great, but it doesn't come close to this game.

My favorite of the two Paper Mario games.

(There, now I managed to make it shorter haha )

@The_Liquid_Laser half-guessed #21. Or did he? I'm being a bit mean here, because while he correctly guessed it's an Asterix game, he technically didn't say which one yet. The kicker is however, that to guess the actual game, he doesn't have to think about it any further. Will he do it? Or will someone else steal it? And also, first hint for #19.

#21: One small village of indomitable ones still holds out against the invaders. And life is not easy for those who garrison the fortifies camps. So let's take back the country, province by province.

Hint 2: You do this by distributing the Magic Potion you get across your own provinces, and attack.

Hint 3: Another version of this game, includes the name of the country it's set in, in its name. Guessed by Darashiva - Astérix (Asterix: The Gallic Wars)

#19: Out of sight out of mind says us.

As nobody guessed Graveyard Keeper, now nobody shares the lead on my guesses with Machina with 6 entries, Darashiva and The_Liquid_Laser follow with 5 each:

#22: Draw the map of the dungeon you find in a high school yourself. Guessed by The_Liquid_Laser.

#21: Silver haired maiden. Guessed by The_Liquid_Laser.

#20: Marry to get children you can send into fights to the permadeath. Guessed by The_Liquid_Laser.

#19: The second adventure of Ashley Mizuki Robbins. This time on Wii and again as the outing on the DS the new controls are used in puzzles. Which does for the Wiimote means pointer function, not so much waggling. The studio that made this game made some other great adventures as well, sadly they did go bankrupt just before the resurgence of adventures happened. Guessed by drbunnig.

#18: Ask me about Loom.

18.  The Secret of Monkey Island.

My next guess for this will be Donkey Kong Country
