Man, what a great game! Even though I own the Mega Man X Collection, I've still only played through that first game lol. Everyone agrees that it's the best of the series though.
We didn't have cable when I was a kid, so I only got to watch Dragon Ball Z when it aired on network tv, and that was spotty at best. I watched a ton of Digimon, though, and to a lesser extent Pokémon. I blindly disliked Sailor Moon because it was for girls (I thought) but have since heard lots of good things about it. There was also a show on for a while called Card Captor Sakura that I watched a lot of. I've always wanted to see Trigun and Cowboy Bebop but haven't gotten around to it yet.
My favorite anime is definitely Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex.
I've always wanted to play Crystalis. I hear it's one of the great not-Zelda Zeldas. There's a GBC rerelease but I hear it's not as good as the original. I don't think it's ever been on Virtual Console either 
The Martian is one of those things where I'd really like to read the book first. Not for any particular reason—I hear the movie is quite good—but I'd still like to read it first lol.
As they say, there's no accounting for taste lol. I really don't know anything about Image or how they've changed. They're just one of the big indie comics publishers. A lot of their stuff does look really interesting though.
You're the second person to mention Trees. Hmm...
I've managed to read the comics I get as I get them for the most part. The main thing that still waiting to be read is that Dark Horse Aliens omnibus I found at Goodwill last year. Or was it the year before now? Dang, I need to read that 
Already got it on PS+ and that means that I'll liable to actually play it too lol
I don't know how to play poker at all, so learning any version of it would be an improvement for me. I couldn't tell you the difference between a flush and full house off the top of my head, for instance.
Wow, that actually looks a lot better than I thought it would.
I haven't played many Atari games but I can imagine how that would work. I assume your character was just a square lol
