I know you'll do it eventually

Do it, come on!

Or, you know, do both lists to even stuff out

Come on, you're churning out those reviews like there's no tomorrow. How's a list like this any different?

Idk, TGWTG is popular and everyone there is super negative. As a big NChick fan, I think it's a matter of sprinkling it with enough humor and finding and knowing your audience

I have beaten Fire Red, actually. It was really good, but I still think the other games are better and more robust.

Do the list. People love lists.

For Zelda, I'd have to go with ALTTP, ALBW, TP and SS. I liked Ocarina but never got the hype.

As for Pokemon, Gen V and Gen II are my favorites, Gen VI and Gen III tied for second place. And I know my opinion on this is unpopular, but in retrospect, I don't think Gen I was that good. It was good for what we had and I was crazy about it, but every game after that was so much better IMO

Pokemon and Zelda are essentially it for me when it comes to Nintendo first party stuff.

Wario is awesome, especially two and three. Three is in general better due to how the game keeps opening up as you play, while two is great because it actually has branching story paths with different levels opening up depending on how you finish the previous level.

Yup. But overall, I was always a much bigger Wario fan. I played the first four games (well, not so much 1) TO DEATH!!!

We never really had Mario 2 here. Like, at all. Early post-communist Poland was a weird place without NESes. The only thing we got was a "Pegasus" - a bootleg NES made in Russia, but there was only like 14 games on it, the original Mario included. Probably becaus I was raised on only the original Mario from the original three (plus Marioland on GB - that was awesome), I always preferred the simplicity of Mario 1 to the robust stuff in Mario 2.

It was essentially just Mario 1 but harder. Idk, I still kinda liked it. Never beat Mario 2, however. It was pretty punishing and I got frustrated. I still like it for introducing Shy Guys and Birdo
