Catching up on some stuff since I'm home.

PS4
Doom - gf didn't like the twitchy and fast nature of the game.
LittleBigPlanet3 - this was a fun one bit there's a lot of loading

360
Halo 4 - Firefight mode is fun

GBA
Mother 3 - on Chapter 8, in the laboratory. Grinding a bit to get my characters to level 60 before the next few bosses.

Tetris 99
Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition
Pinball Arcade

RetroPi
Nightmare on Elm Street (NES) - I think this would be a lot better with 4 players.
Double Dragon (Lynx) - A great port if it's 1993 and you only have a Lynx. Still trumped by the excellent Double Dragon Advance.

I've never gotten into the tales games. Played a bit of Phantasia and almost all of tales of the abyss and it just didn't stick with me. Is this one good?

I just finished the Foundry level in Doom last night. Every level just keeps getting better & better. It was jarring for me also to get use to the super fast movement. Wasted a lot of ammo missing shot because of the speed. After I have got use to it I feel like a damn bulldozer lol.

Honestly, I never did either. This is the only one I've played and liked. I like the graphics, characters, and story. I'd be willing to try Tales of Xillia on PS4 when I get the chance; it's only $15 @ Half Priced Hipsters.

I played this quite a bit back in the day on the NES and liked it.

I’m enjoying it, it’s definitely one of those pick up for a quick play. It was very tough in the beginning until I got the jump mechanics down.

Too busy burning the candle at both ends working two jobs to do much beyond my usual casual gaming when I have some time to spare here-and-there.

Nintendo 2DS
- The Legend of Legacy
Still working on exploring 100% of the swamp area, but, I also unlocked a new bottomless pit map too.
- Nintendo Badge Arcade
2,000 badges; 30 complete sets.
- Pokemon Picross
119 Pokemon captured. Saving up to unlock another area as usual, but, at least the amount of money I can make a day training went up slightly again ($11-13, depending on whether I can clear the puzzles in 2 minutes or less).
- Pokemon Rumble World
79th rank, all 719 Pokemon caught. Just saving up to upgrade my skill trees and catching stronger versions of Pokemon I already have.
- Pokemon Shuffle
25th rank; 404 stages cleared; 755 Pokemon caught.


Android Tablet
- Absolute Bingo
Reached level 19.
- Galaxy Sky Shooting
Stuck on the level 132 boss now. Almost got enough diamonds for a new ship.
- Solitaire (Klondike)
