Hey Hey, abit more about myself I guess, I've been playing games since as long as I can recall, my first love was my C64 and have many fond memories of it such as Jumpman, Archon, Aliens, Mario bros & some weird game involving Camels. After that int he early 90's I got my first real taste of Nintendo with the Game Boy and have been hooked ever since. I'm a loyal Nintendo fanboy through and through and while I may hate them sometimes I'll always return because damit because thats just how a fanboy is meant to be. I would consider myself more of a handheld gamer then anything. I enjoy consoles and all but I just find it easier to lay back and get out my DSi or one of my various Game Boys for some awesome Handheld gaming fun.

Top 5 games of all time.
5. Kirbys Canvas Curse (DS)
4. The Legend of Zelda: Links Awakening (GB)
3. The Legend of Zelda: Majoras Mask (N64)
2. Tetrisphere (N64)
1. Secret of Mana (SNES)

20 SNES games in 20 Days: Day 0 Prelude
flamecondor | 9:46 PM on 11.19.2010 5 comments


Last year I did a series of blogs celebrating the 20 year anniversary of the Game Boy being released in Japan. In it I looked back on 20 games I’d owned/played during the original run of a system that had defined who I am as a gamer. In no way would I consider that list to be the 20 best games ever to grace the system, but it was a look back on my history as a gamer. Well tomorrow (Japan time) as some of you may know is the 20th anniversary of the Super Famicon (just incase Chad is reading and he forgot, that stands for Family Computer :P) more well know to us as the Super Nintendo being unleashed on the world so in keeping with the spirit I’m gonna do it all again with 20 Super Nintendo games in 20 days.
 


Its going to be the same deal as last year 20 games I owned/played growing up, the ones that I have the most fond memories of. I’ll probably disappoint people right off the bat and just go ahead and say it, there will be no Final Fantasy III’s or Chrono Triggers or Earthbounds or Super Metroids for the one reason that I never played them when I was growing up (for the aforementioned RPG’s they never came out in Australia and as for Super Metroid I just honestly never had an interest in it to be hones which looking back on was a bad idea). So yeah in no way is this the 20 best games the system had, just the 20 that mean the most to me.
 


Same as last time I make no guarantee that these will be concurrent, would love to but realistically I’m not that quick of a writer, but we’ll see what happens. Also want to take a quick break around Christmas for something else I want to do. So I hope you’ll all be looking forward to joining me in my trip down memory lane and have a look at some of the best the greatest 16bit system ever (suck it Mega Drive fans) ever had to offer and I’ll see you all tomorrow.
