Lol I hear that. Wind Waker is awesome though, and the remaster makes the game even better.


I beat 5 PS4 games, which was actually a goal I wasn't sure I was going to meet this year :lol:

Should probably tackle Link's Awakening before summer's end.

Got the Platinum in I am Setsuna. this afternoon, closing out one of the last resolutions. Now the only one left is booting up the Wii U.

...

Maybe in Octoroktober.

I actually booted this up in a moment of weakness on Sunday. I didn't play long—just enough to run around the village. Progress!

Well, with only two days left it seems unlikely I will be accomplishing my stated goal! However I did at least manage to beat Secret of Mana 2 today to make it 50% achieved. I just picked up a fan translated repro of Chaos Seed, so that'll be my next big go to game for SNES. I guess this challenge will roll over till 2017! :P

The only goal I didn't meet was beating Wind Waker. I don't feel too bad about it. I had a pretty good year overall!

Let's see how 2016 went.

1. Play one of BGE's top games in any of the brackets (main or special, giving myself lots of room here :D )
- Lots of room, and I still never did this! All I had to do was turn on SMB3! :lol:

2. Finish Zelda Link's Awakening (had this since 2011)
- DONE! Feel good about this one, long time coming. It actually motivated me to complete Oracle of Seasons as well, a game I've had since 2013.

3. Finish Professor Layton and the Azran Legacy (another one that has gone on too long)
- DONE!

4. Finish Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney (need to finish at least the first one before moving onto Prof Layton Vs. Phoenix Wright)
- DONE! Finished the first Phoenix Wright anyways

5. Finish more games than I buy
- DONE! Finished 39 games this year, which is certainly more than I bought. I think I finished nearly every physical game I bought this year.

6. Spend less on Amiibo (bought around 25 in 2015, shouldn't be hard)
- DONE! I think I only added about 3 to my collection this year.

7. Finish 5 PS4 games
- DONE! I was actually not sure about this one, but it came easy. Dark Souls III, Fallout 4, The Last of Us, Journey, Uncharted 3, InFamous Second Son, and possibly a couple others. I was expecting to have The Witcher 3 and Game of Thrones on this list, so I guess I also bought more PS4 games than I thought I would!
So overall pretty successful, just didn't finish the easiest one :lol: My "finish more games than I buy" resolution was a good motivator for me this year, record year in terms of games finished.

I did beat Xenoblade X.

I didn't beat Eiyuusenki on hard mode, mainly because I got bored with the game. I did get pretty far.
