I'm playing The Last Door: Episode One, a pixel-art point and click that I bought on sale on Steam. It is very very good, I would recommand it to anyone wanting to play a game whose main focus is scenario. It is a psychological thriller, with a lot of bizarre elements taken from the Lovecraftian legacy.

The game I'm currently playing is Tyrian 2000, an old vertical shoot-em-up game for PC and it's really fun! I highly recommend it to anyone that loves retro games. And it's for free too! You can download it either from GOG for PC or for your mobile devices.

I've decided after these videos, to play SMB and R3 at the same time :D
I'm thinking of trying a walkthrough video with a Mario game :D

I would feel a lot better about that game if they just called it what it really is: Nintendo Kart.

I guess Mario Kart is fine since most of the characters from the game come from the Mario franchise.

Exactly. The majority of the selectable characters are Mario characters with only a minority of them from other games. Does that mean Donkey Kong should have never been in the game?

Donkey Kong and Mario have a real history together, despite being rivals.
It should be legal for him to be in that game at least.

Some of the characters don't make sense though. Like Baby Rosalina and Pink Gold Peach. Metal Mario and Baby Peach have their reasons to be there.
I feel like they ran out of ideas.

The game is only good because it is meant for many new players. It is not meant to be competitive.(Which sucks.)

I suppose it does.
It still irks me a little.

Hmmm...until I play this game I won’t know for myself. :oops2:
But have competitive racers tried racing with this game I wonder?

I'll just stick to the characters I used to use in the older games anyway but I guess they only added extra ones just to have more variation in the game. Even if they don't make sense though I have no problem with it. It's not the same as replacing Ly with Tily.

Have an experience with Balloon Battle. I dislike the fact that when you get eliminated, you are a ghost and can still play the battle as normal, and you can't take damage because of the effects. The balloon battles in the other games don't do that. You respawn and play again as the battle goes on in the other Mario Kart Games(except Mario Kart DS, it has the ghost effect but it was going the right path. The fact that you can spawn item boxes for your team mates instead of playing the battle normal when you get eliminated.). It is hard to be competitve in Mario Kart 8. It doesn't matter if skilled people are actually playing it.

Yeah as long as they don’t replace the characters I love playing as in the game I’ll be fine with having extras. The series has been using extra characters not native to the series since MKDS, so I don’t know why this bothers me a little. I think it’s just me. Though I find it amusing that everytime I see people playing MM8/MK8 Deluxe, I see at least one Link. Cant blame them though since I love LOZ and having him in this game makes me curious.

Oh i see! I’ll keep that in mind when I get my Switch. :)

No matter what we think though we can't change the game so we either have to play it as it is or go back to an older one. Double Dash is still my favourite.

That’s true. MKDD and MKWii are still my favorites. Speaking of which, I wish they had brought back some sort of the action of having 2 characters in a Kart in at least 1 game. Would be awesome to see 2 kinda of GP, one with one character to a Kart, and one with 2 characters to a Kart. That would be something I’d LOVE to see. :hap:

The Wii one is actually really good too yeah. I played MKDD far more though.

Maybe I'll start collecting Mario when I finish my Rayman collection :hap:
