oh I should probably go back and do the others

1987 Top SHINE 5
The Legend of Zelda - 8-bit Breath of the Wild. I used the map that came with the game religiously
Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! - I beat Mike Tyson eventually. Not in 1987 though probably not until 1990 or 1991.
Metroid - First time I beat the game was totally with Justin Bailey as I remember getting stuck somewhere in Norfair. Don't think I actually bothered to beat the game legitimately until it was included with Metroid Prime.
Castlevania - Best music
Mega Man - precursor of things to come

1988 Top SHINE 5
Zelda 2: Adventure of Link - I never got why people hated this game. At the time I thought it was like Mario 2 where every sequel was different. I precedence hadn't really been set yet.
Super Mario Bros. 2 - I never got why people hated this game. At the time I thought it was like Zelda 2 where every sequel was different. I precedence hadn't really been set yet.
Blades of Steel - You can't beat me at this game
RC Pro Am - I can't beat the computer once the yellow gets steroids
Super Dodge Ball - best game with the river city characters

1989 Top SHINE 5
Mega Man 2 - The game I can credit with getting me hardcore into video games. I was a filthy casual before then. (if you can call a 4 year old a casual)
Dragon Warrior - First time I saw an RPG. Played it at my cousins house first then got it shortly afterwards. Erdrick for life.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (arcade) - The one arcade game I will stop to play whenever I see it.
Shadowgate - Not so much the NES version but we had these on our elementary school DOS computers and I played it a lot. Eventually would get the GBC remake and Shadowgate 64
Phantasy Star 2 - Hard as hell but I still love it

1990 Top SHINE 5
Ninja Gaiden 2 - First game I can remember actually saving allowance to buy. Changed how you present a story in video games.
Mega Man 3 - I didn't like it as much as 2 but it was still amazing
Super C - My brother and I played this game way more than regular Contra.
Super Mario Bros. 3 - Got this in my Easter Basket which was the raddest thing
Ys 1 & 2 - Putting this on here retroactively even though I didn't get into the series until much later

Ys I and II were originally released on some weird Japanese computer in 1987 and 1988 and then got like a hundred ports and remakes. The ones released in the west were Ys I on the Master System in 1988 (there is no Ys II for Master System), Ys Book I & II on Turbo CD in 1990 (probably the most influential version on western gamers but since it was on Turbo CD there were pretty hard limits to how popular it could be; it's available on Virtual Console), and the similar-to-each-other-but-not-identical modern remakes of Ys I & II on PC, PSP, and DS in the 2010s (the PC version is probably best of the modern ones, you can get it on Steam).

Ys III: Wanderers from Ys was originally released on some weird Japanese computer in 1989 and then got console versions that got released in the west on SNES, Genesis, and Turbo CD in 1991. All of them have some issues and the game is kind of divisive in general but the SNES version is probably the worst of the three. Ys: The Oath in Felghana is a remake that made some pretty extreme changes but is in general much better than any version of Wanderers from Ys; it's available on Steam and PSP.

Ys IV: Mask of the Sun on SNES and Ys IV: The Dawn of Ys on Turbo CD (both in 1993) are totally different games made by different developers (neither of which was the original developer of the first three games; they were having some financial problems at the time or something) that share soundtracks and are built from the same basic character/plot/setting/premise outline but their different developers went in different directions from there. Neither came out in the West but both have translation patches now and The Dawn of Ys is much better. The Vita game Ys: Memories of Celceta isn't a remake of either by my understanding but is a new game made by the original developer, who has of course declared that it is the canonical version of Ys IV; it got a western release.

Ys V came out on SNES in 1995. No western release, but there is a translation patch.

And then the series went dead for like 8 years until Ys VI (aside from continued rehashes of Ys I and II) and generally got consistent western releases from that point on.

I go back and forth whether Dawn of Ys or Ys Seven is my favorite. Ys V is definitely the worst one. I still need to play memories of celceta though.

Currently have the $100 limited edition of Ys VIII pre-ordered

Turbografix is definitely the definitive verison to me of Ys 1 and 2. There were master system, NES and some other versions before it but they were definitely not of note until then

IGA hinted as much in the past but it's official now.

Hello, this is IGA.
Thank you for always supporting us. I would like to give a message to the backers who pledged for the Wii U version of Bloodstained.
During our Kickstarter campaign, the Wii U was at the height of its popularity, but the situation has drastically changed after the release of Nintendo Switch.
This change made it difficult to receive the necessary support from the hardware maker, which has led us to drop the Wii U development and shift the development to Nintendo Switch.
We are very sorry that it has come to this after all your support, but we hope you will understand. We would like to respond by preparing options for our backers, such as moving your pledge to another version or requesting a refund if you don’t want any other version.
We hope you will continue to support us.

Maybe not if it has ONLINE MULTIPLAYER

Is that a reasonable possibility?

Square Enix has announced the Seiken Densetsu Collection for Switch. It will launch physically and digitally in Japan on June 1 for 4,800 yen.

The collection includes:

Seiken Densetsu: Final Fantasy Gaiden (Final Fantasy Adventure / Mystic Quest)
Seiken Densetsu 2 (Secret of Mana)
Seiken Densetsu 3
Both Seiken Densetsu 2 and Seiken Densetsu 3 support multiplayer with up to three players.

I'm gonna say nah
