A bunch of games or series I won't shut up about no matter how "good" or "bad" they are, and have special places in my heart. You can always talk to me about these games (and please note that I don't worship them unconditionally, and am totally capable of having a normal discussion about any of these). This isn't an exhaustive list, and is geared more towards series than individual games. This list is also a WIP and will update often.
- Ar Tonelico/Surge Concerto
- Mother series (mostly EarthBound)
- Chrono Trigger
- Legend of Heroes/Trails/Kiseki series (only got through the first 5 so far, and so far I prefer them over Coldsteel)
- Ganbare Goemon (Great Adventure and KiraKira Dochuu are my favorites)
- Yoshi, Kirby, and Pokemon everything
- Metroid
- Mario RPGs
- Monster Hunter (mostly World but I'm getting into the old ones now)
- Star Fox Adventures
- TLoZ (favs are TP, Minish Cap, WW, Oracles)
- Banjo Kazooie & Tooie
- GEX
- Sly Cooper
- SA/SA2B
- I mean, the above is pretty much mostly for the Chao but I also just love the games
- Various Sonic games but I've skipped a lot of them
- Pokemon Mystery Dungeon series
- Gears of War 2 & 3 (don't make fun of me)
- Rayman 2 & 3
- Monster World 4 (I've played the others, but that one's a big favorite)
- Astal (Sega Saturn game, it's nuts)
- Older Fire Emblem games; POR, Blazing Blade, etc
- Pikmin
- Shantae series
- Axiom Verge (I haven't played 2 yet)
- Ori and the Blind Forest
- And probably many more to be added later
