Checked my 3DS activity log today. Put in nearly 600 hours into it since Christmas 2011, though my sibling is probably responsible for just over half. Such a great handheld, though I'm more of a console guy. You can't deny those late 2011 and the entire year of 2013 lineups. Games after games. Luigi's Mansion sequel, yes please.
Nintendo systems are still the best place to play.
There's just so much dedication in making art rather than just games.
TTYD, majpra's mask, earthbound, SSBM, Sunshine, metroid prime, SPM, Wind waker, air ride, pokemon, etc...
All the games I've named all taught me things I would never tough before about how a game could be made from an artistic standpoint. There's so much I'll never finish to learn.
I mean, it's SSBM that started it all. You won't even see me on this site if it wasn't for this game.
This includes TTYD btw.
