Yeah, I never use the 3D on the 3DS. I just think that's a shame because it's the sort of thing, that if better-implemented, would have been a really need aspect of the system.

As for the Wii, of the 6 games I own, 4 of them rely on the motion stuff (the two Super Mario Galaxy ones and the two Zeldas). Xenoblade didn't and I loved it and Kirby's Epic Yarn only did for one small aspect, which was my least favorite part of that game. However, I didn't really like holding the controller sideways to use as a regular controller. I'm so used to the PS2/360 larger controller that if I played it for over an hour or so, my hands would start to feel a bit cramped.

I think, re: the Switch, my opinion is similar to Joseph's. I know they're adding more and more software to their library, but at the current time, they have very few of the games I'm interested in playing. They might get them eventually, but I'm mentally incapable of "playing the long game". Even if I never wind up playing a game or it takes 10 years to get to it, if I'm buying a system now, I NEED to know that game is there at that moment.

On a semi-related note, time to get off the computer and use my new gaming/DVD TV. Keep the 32-inch for TV watching; use the 43-inch for fun stuff. Only thing I worry about is the performance of certain games, such as the ones on Mega Man Anniversary Collection. I've heard about there being a certain amount of lag or whatnot with those games on newer TVs, so hoping it won't be bad, as you kind of need to be precise there, lol.

Unreal Tournament? Star Control 2? Chrono Cross? Phantasy Star? Lunar? THIEF? Eyyyy, people here got class.

Me, I go with the big Nintendo series, so that means my top five is Mario Teaches Typing, Link: The Faces of Evil, Metroid: Other M, Hey You! Pikachu, and that boring, already-forgotten Animal Crossing board game that made you buy all those dumb toys to do anything.

Ok, I actually have a Top 100.txt file I tinker around with on my own time, but the two games I play the most are Unreal Tournament '99 and Super Smash Bros. Legacy XP. I'd like to follow up Mr. Venter's five recent "modern games," mine being Environmental Station Alpha, Undertale, Hyper Light Drifter, Anodyne, and Antichamber. All indies, incidentally, so they're not hard on the wallet or computer. Buy them!

Most of mine seemed to be more modern by comparison. Ya'll must be older than me somehow. I'm 29, my gaming life mostly started with Starcraft, Unreal, Quake, and then Morrowind.
