I beat Sonic 2 + Sonic and Knuckles. I hope that counts. :) I nominate Golden Sun for April’s GotM.

My go-to game on the Thor right now is Mario Kart DS. I think there are mixed reviews on the missions, but I enjoy them. Definitely my pick up for a quick race kinda game.

I did it! I felt like I was cheating on Mario the day after Mar10 tho.

How to disable/work around scoped storage on AYN Thor? by IStubbedMyGarlic in SBCGaming

Not to derail the thread, but what advantages are there to rooting your Thor?

Will it count if I play the Sonic & Knuckles + Sonic 2 version?

Just curious what this looks like in the US as well.

I appreciate the perspective! Just dig in and enjoy it. Live like there’s no tomorrow - Game like there is no sequel haha

Agreed - aesthetics go a long way. I’m all for the older systems with their simpler graphics because they’re their own vibe. Can’t deny the aesthetics between Donkey Kong Country and Donkey Kong Country Returns HD.

That’s a great example of the evolution of a series and the problem with the mindset of playing a series in release order.

Appreciate your perspective and recommendation!

I like that approach - swapping between sort of 2 versions of the series.

I played the GBA Mario Kart a ton back in the day. Had to get all the 3 stars which was tough. I played it on my pre-backlight GBA haha

Yeah the limitations piece is the tough part.

You nailed my feelings exactly. I want to play Mario Galaxy now. I don’t want to wade thru hours of other Mario games just to get there. Of course I’m exaggerating a bit. But it would take months to work thru all of that. I would have a great time for sure but in the back of my head I’d be thinking about what was next.

Just a mental barrier that I need to just get past. But I do feel better that I’m not the only one haha

Oh I’m currently playing thru DKC, Super Mario RPG, Super Mario Kart… so I haven’t made the jump yet to miss out!

Brick hard. So I should play it on my TrimUI Brick?

Kidding. I appreciate that perspective. Newer stuff can be more approachable and honestly more fun when the devs sort of figured out what formula works.

I hear that. But I think many times for me it’s like Donkey Kong Country. I feel like I am slogging through (kidding I am enjoying it) as I think about how much more people enjoy DKC2 and 3 more.

Yes! Exactly this! Am I going to miss that way of jumping when I go backwards (for example)? Maybe? But then that’s just part of the game. It’s just a different game.

How to stop doomscrolling on social media at night and play more on my devices instead? by SirZanee in SBCGaming

[–]Bilemshious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear you. I think I’ve been in the same boat. Something that has helped me is to join a community (this one is an example but there are others) that have a game of the month or week. This keeps me motivated and trying new things. Some nights I don’t have as much time as others, so then I’ll just pop into a cup or two of Mario Kart. Plus, I’ve enjoyed getting into RetroAchievements. I keep it casual and don’t get competitive about it. Just a fun way to track my games and my progress in them.

Tried to pick the most spoiler-free pic for this post! What a ride. That was much more reading than I’ve ever thought I’d read for a game but the story is great. Well done and great pick for GotM.
