Can you believe this year is already half over?  What I like to do this time of year is write about the best games of the year so far.  Everyone is all excited over recent E3 announcements, and most of the really good titles come out during the Christmas season at the tail end of the year, and the games that come out earlier tend to be forgotten.  So this is where those games get their due.

Finding Dory was recently released in theaters, and it’s a sequel to Finding Nemo, which is one of my favorite Pixar films.  So it got me to thinking about my other Pixar favorites, and also Pixar movies that I didn’t like as much.  So I made a list of my top four favorite and least favorite Pixar films.  Why four?  No reason other than that it was harder to narrow it down to five. I had four distinct ones in each category but after that it wasn’t as clear.  So I stuck with four for each.

Hey folks, I’ve got another batch of game reviews over at GamerDad.com that I’ve written and posted lately.  So here are some links and things.  Please click on and read as many as you can, and maybe even post a comment or two.  I’d really appreciate it.  Thanks so much!

Well another E3 has come and gone, and this was the first year in a long time that I wasn’t quite as interested in it as I usually am.  But there was still enough stuff that I could write a blog about, so here it is!

A new Kirby game was released on 3DS recently, called Kirby: Planet Robobot.  In this game, Kirby can pilot a robot mech to smash enemies and solve puzzles.  So that got me to thinking about other mech games that I like, so here’s a blog about them!

So a few days ago I beat Ys: Memories of Celceta on my PS Vita.  It was a fun game, but not near as good as Ys Seven on PSP.  One of the reasons why I liked Ys Seven so much was it had a fantastic and memorable soundtrack.  One of the best I’ve heard in recent memory.  The Vita Ys game wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t as memorable.  So now I’m going to try and do something I’ve never done before here: write a blog and post videos of music from Ys Seven that you can listen to.  (Yeah this is kind of a filler blog)  I hope I can get it to work!  Here goes nothing!

So my computer conked out on me after 5 to 6 years of service.  I guess that’s pretty good, but I do wish they’d last longer, especially considering how much you pay for them.  So now I’m writing this blog on my new computer, getting all used to Windows 10 and new programs and such.  You know how it goes.  Hopefully this one will last me a long time, too.  Anyway, I got a new batch of reviews I’ve written recently over at GamerDad.com.  Please click on the links below and read my reviews and maybe even post a comment or two here or there if you can.  I’d really appreciate it.  You’ll understand why I titled this blog “Bouncy Ninja” in a moment.

I love classic video game compilations, but you hardly see them anymore.  Most video game companies now just sell their classics separately for you to download.  I guess that makes them more money, but in a way, it’s also kind of sad.  Luckily, SEGA just released a collection of some of their 3-D remakes on the 3DS.  SEGA also sells these remakes separately on the eShop, but now you can play nine of them on a cartridge.  So since I like to go over games in classic compilations, here are all the ones you can play on the SEGA 3-D Classics Collection.  I’ve even reviewed a few of them a couple of years ago that were released separately, so when I come across those, I’ll make a link to my original reviews in case you want to read further!

Can you believe it’s May already?  Anyway, I’ve got another crop of game reviews blooming over at GamerDad.com, so here are some links and things to those reviews.  Please click on and read whatever you can, and maybe even post a comment here or there.  I’d really appreciate it.  Thanks for reading!

You know, there are a lot of Nintendo franchises that I really like, such as Kirby, Zelda, Animal Crossing, Metroid, etc.  And there are some that I don’t like as much, but I don’t hate either.  Star Fox is one of those franchises.  But for as indifferent as I am about Star Fox, I’ve ended up playing every game in the series, so I guess I at least like it a little bit.  So in honor of the recent release of Star Fox Zero, I thought I’d go through all the Star Fox games and give my quick impressions and personal experiences with each one.  I’m not really rating each of these games on this list, although if I had to say, the first three here would be my favorites.  So hop into your Arwing and let’s take an intergalactic tour of all the Star Fox games!
