I made a grid to show some of my gaming tastes 🎮
I've made sure not to use the same game twice, but there are a few games in the same series.
(Grid made via grids.fun/t/about-me-v...)

Time for a replay! This should give me a refresh before I attempt Portal 2 for the first time.

It's been a while! I thought I'd better get a replay of this in before Metroid Ravenous launches. This series is pure comfort food for me ☺️

I still haven't gotten around to playing past the first couple of hours of the original Final Fantasy VII so I should probably play that first... but I know the remake is critically acclaimed and an absolute steal at this price. Decisions decisions... 🤔

I wasn't expecting another 2D Metroid yet after the 20 year gap between Fusion and Dread. It's always nice to have a genuine surprise during a Direct, I'm excited! 🥳

It is possible to use a The Legend of Zelda cartridge to unlock the world selection option in Super Mario Bros., by swapping the cartridges without turning off the NES and performing specific actions in The Legend of Zelda before swapping back.

I haven't posted much about gaming lately; most of my time has been going into GTA San Andreas, and it's one heck of a time sink (in a good way!)
I fancied a change of pace today so I've gone back to Kirby and the Amazing Mirror. I never finished it on Wii U, so i'm hoping to fix that on Switch!

I had some free time while the kids were out, so I booted up a 20+ year old save file on Pokémon Yellow! (I haven't gone by Stuey since I was at school so this must be ancient 💀)
I only had one more gym badge to get, so I finally went and beat Giovanni! Can't remember why I stopped playing 🤔

My daughter made a Jirachi put of Hama beads! I can't help but feel there's something a bit Earthbound/Mother 3 about it...

In Super Mario Advance 3, catching Baby Mario and hitting a Message Block at the same time, then pressing Select 4 times will turn the game into an aesthetic silhouette experience.

I spent this evening playing a game I NEARLY finished back in 2008: Grand Theft Auto San Andreas. My flatmate at the time beat it before me and spoiled the ending, so I lost my motivation to play it. I'm playing it on the XBox this time and I hope to reach the end credits 🚗🔫

In Mario Kart: Double Dash, shadows in the environment do not follow any kind of lighting logic and appear to have been placed solely based on "vibe". This results in shadows being cast in nearly every possible direction at the same time.

I'm carrying on with games in my PlayStation Vita backlog with something a bit out there: Hatoful Boyfriend!
I have no clue to what I'm going in to here; what little I've heard sounds completely bizarre, but it clearly piqued my curiosity a few years when I bought it in a sale. Here goes nothing! 🕊
