Metroid Samus Return

This is a hard Metroid game 

Genre: Action  
Platform: 3DS
Release Date: 2017

What is it about?
A remake of Metroid 2 for the Gameboy 

What I liked?
It's a classic Metroid gameplay with a couple new elements 
The original game maps wasn't design to be joined together but they change the game a little 
The parry system is so satisfying 

What I didn't liked?
How hard it is. You'll end up dying a lot 
The constant getting lost. For a Metroid game it is not accessible 

Status: Played until area 2 and then hard quit

Fun Factor: If you like the difficulty, you should play this game 

The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time

This game did not age well. The first game I didn't finish this year

Genre: Action
Platform: 3DS

Also on: N64

Released Date: 1998

What is it about?
You play as the hero of time trying to save Hyrule Kingdom from the evil Ganon.

What I liked?
- The puzzles look interesting enough 

- There are plenty to do in Hyrule 

- The map is small but it connects everything through out the adventure 

- Ocarina playing is great. 

What I didn't liked?
- The game does not give you hints, but most of it is trial by error. You need to complete a certain sequence in order to get to the next set of objectives

- The controls are clunky but during 98 that was considered revolutionary 

- I find that the game is boring in a sense there a lot of repetition in quests. 

- Camera is not that good so aiming its a chore

Status: Played around hours of the game. Still in Young Link mode

Fun Factor: If you can stand clunky controls. It's a masterpiece in its time but it takes a good deal of patience to play it now

Super Smash Bros 3DS

It's been a while so let's gets started

Context: Before I start the review. I can say I've been playing a lot of SSB. Until the item I accidentally brick my 3DS... So while my 3DS is out of commission. Let me review the game

Game: Super Smash Bros for 3DS
Genre: Fighting
Platform: 3DS
First 3 Hours: Got all of the characters in less than 2. All 54 of them. My favourites are Greninja and Sonic. After finishing the main smash. I was still playing it for the challenges. There are 105 challenges that range from the easy to the impossible. The actually a big grind to get it all. And don't forget about the trophies.
What I liked: Gameplay, Characters, Challenges, Greninja, Little Mac, Trophies
What I didn't liked: Little Mac, Smash Run, Classic Mode
Status: All characters, All stages, 73/105 challenges completed. 235/600+++ trophies collected. Going to go again after a couple of months

Score: 4/5 Tennis balls

Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon

Game: Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon
Platform: 3DS

First 3 Hours: Besides the title sounding like a Transformers movie. The game is awesome. It's Ghostbusters with a vacuum. There are a lot of interesting ways to catch a ghost and the feeling on sucking them in is utterly satisfying
What I liked: Storyline, Level up system, the vacuum, Stages
What I didn't liked: No jump, no checkpoints, restarting the same mission over again
Status: Finish the main story mode and rescued Mario
Score: 5/5 dark moon pieces

Mario Kart 7

Game: Mario Kart 7

Status: Finish one cup. Want to try again
Score: 5/5 karts
