Kirby’s Adventure (Replay)

Still holds up quite well. Very accessible for an NES game and the color palette is very vibrant.

DuckTales

Fairly solid platformer. Really captures the spirit of the cartoon and can just be fun to pick up and play if a bit too short and if the pogo stick can be kinda finicky at times.

Jujutsu Kaisen

Pure shonen. Its narrative isn’t the best and at times can be quite frustrating, but its fights are spectacular and its characters are likeable enough that you want to see what happens with them.

Super Mario Bros. 3 (replay)

Really don’t have a whole lot to say that everyone else hasn’t said already. It’s the best game in the Mario trilogy and one of the best on the NES. Anyone who hasn’t played it needs to.

Super Mario Bros. 2 (Replay)

Come to appreciate this game a lot more in recent times. I’d even say it’s better than the first game. The vertical platforming was a nice way to add on to the horizontal platforming introduced in the first game and the game is very fun to master.

The Simpsons: Season 6 (Rewatch)

Fantastic season. One of the best of the whole show I think. Highlights for me being Homer Badman, Treehouse of Horror V, And Maggie Makes Three, Lisa’s Wedding and Homer the Great.

Wanted to see what all the hype for this movie was about and honestly, it was pretty good. It’s got a nice message of fighting your insecurities along with some catchy songs.

Highlights for me were The Wizard of Evergreen Terrace, Treehouse of Horror IX, Wild Barts Can’t Be Broken, Lisa Gets an “A”, and Thirty Minutes Over Tokyo

The Simpsons: Season 10 (Rewatch)

Maybe it’s burnout from the fact that I just watched 226 Simpsons episodes almost back to back, but while Season 10 had higher highs than Season 9, the season overall felt like a drag.

Highlights for me include Natural Born Kissers, Lisa’s Sax, Das Bus, Girly Edition and Trash of the Titans

The Simpsons: Season 9 (Rewatch)

Definitely has some good episodes, but the overall quality is definitely below that. A lot more mediocre and some bad episodes.

Highlights for me are Homer’s Enemy, Homer’s Phobia, You Only Move Twice, The Itchy & Scratchy & Poochie Show and The Mysterious Voyage of Homer

The Simpsons: Season 8 (Rewatch)

I guess technically I consider this the start of the decline cause while there’s some amazing episodes here, the overall quality isn’t quite as great as the previous two.

The Simpsons: Season 7 (Rewatch)

A fantastic season. So many amazing episodes here. Highlight for me include Mother Simpson, Bart Sells His Soul, Marge Be Not Proud, 22 Short Films About Springfield and The Day the Violence Died

Metroid (replay)

Honestly, if it weren’t for the fact that enemies can hurt you while you’re walking through doors, and the fact that you respawn with 30 health, this game would actually be pretty great.
