My Recent Video Game Pick Ups!

As some of you may remember, I made a post saying I would be showing off my video game picks up. Well, today is that day! We got games I’ve wanted to play for a while now. We also picked up some heavy hitters. Check these out!

Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

Oh, boy! The next installment in the Zelda series. It’s a darn good one. I’m enjoying it more than BOTW, but both are amazing games.

Pokemon Rumble Blast

Pokemon Rumble Blast is a game I’ve wanted for what feels like forever. I found this game at my LGS about 2 years ago. Only they had lost the key to the showcase it was in. Well, recently, they found that key, haha. It’s a game I’m glad to have in my collection, finally!

Marvel Ultimate Alliance

This was a game I loved as a kid. My brother and I no-lifed this game. It taught me a lot about the Marvel universe. I now work at a comic book store, and this game helped guide me down this route. Now, my wife and I love the MCU and talking comics. I’ve been wanting to play this awesome beat em up with her for almost a decade.

Castlevania N64, Castlevania Legacy of Darkness and Ogre Battle 64!

Now on to the heavy hitters! Castlevania among the other 2 does seem kinda dudish, but I was able to pick up both Castlevania games at an absolute deal! I did pay retail for Ogre Battle 64, but it was super clean. Admittedly, I’m a lot more interested in trying Castlevania over Ogre Battle. That’s mostly because I’m into action adventure games more so than RPGs. However, the N64 is starved for RPGs, so I’m glad to have one of the few! These two join the likes of Beast Wars, Bomberman 2nd Attack and Conker as some of my biggest hitters on the console!

So that’s my haul, guys! What do yall think of these? What systems or games do you collect? Let me know in the comments down below!

All the games featured in this post!

Thank you guys for reading and have a great day!

3 Big N64 Games Added to the Collection! PLUS Spiderman: Across the Spiderverse

Hey guys. Tomorrow, I plan to do a post talking about 3 new N64 games I recently added to the collection. 2 are pretty big games, and 1 is a little more commonish. Either way, I’m pretty excited to show those off.

So, if you like N64 heavy hitters, you’ll want to tune in tomorrow. I’ll also talk about some other games, including a new Switch game!

I also saw Spiderman: Across the Spiderverse. I absolutely loved this film. It was so stylistic and bold. The characters were top notched. The setting and use of colors were next level. I don’t really have any serious complaints about it. To me, it’s a near 10 out of 10.

What are yalls thoughts on the new Spiderman? Let me know in the comments below! Have a great day, and thanks for reading!

Daily Blog Challenge: February 2nd

Today marks the first daily blog of February! This months theme is Legend of Zelda based. So all questions will be about LoZ

Today’s Theme: My First Experience Will The Legend of Zelda

My first time with the LoZ franchise was Ocarina of Time. This is probably common for early to mid 90’s kid. Originally I was watching my uncle teach my cousin how to play. It was at the Lon Lon ranch. They had just learned Epona’s song. I do not know what it was exactly. I never really played games as much as I did watch them. I watched my dad and mom play games before bed a lot. This was the first game I saw someone play and thought “Oh, man. I have to learn to play this game. Like right now.” My memory is not the best, so I never remember which I played first: Pokemon Red or LoZ.

Now, I’ve played every home console one except Skyward Sword because it required motion plus, which I did not have at the time sadly.

So what was your first experience with the Legend of Zelda? Were you throwing it back on the NES or rocking the new Wii titles? Or somewhere in the middle?

Thanks for taking the time to read this!

Check back tomorrow for more updates!
