Zelda II on VC (played it before)
Super Mario RPG on VC (well, read reviews back then)

so I guess: Zelda DS

This WWII flying game I got for the Wii. I can't remember what it was called, but I would have returned it if I could.

Tales of Vesperia - I didn't need a stinkin' review.

Mother 3.

I don't think I could take gaming "journalism" very seriously in the context of that game anyway.

I never read reviews. i just check the scores. 90% and up = must buy. 70% to 89% = might buy if I like the genre or it is cheap.

Jet Force Gemini, and it was a damn good impulse buy, too.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the idea here is that you go into the purchase blind - so you wouldn't know the scores, either.
