2015 was probably the Wii U's best year.  We had innovative titles like Super Mario Maker and Splatoon (which was my GOTY for 2015), and even games like Yoshi's Woolly World almost captured the magic of the original Yoshi's Island game.  

Unfortunately, at the tail end of 2015, I had to quit my job.  I was kind of forced to because of my disability, and I suspect they planned that so they could hire new people at less pay.  But there was no way for me to prove that, so I had to chalk it up as a bit L.  It just caused the next year 2016 to be one of my worst years in a long time.  But we'll get to that when you do your 2016 blog. 2015 was also a little bad for me family-wise, and I'm still having to deal with stuff from that, but I won't go into that here.

I had the original NES Golf game.  It's one of the few NES games I could get my dad to play.  Satoru Iwata (R.I.P.), former president of Nintendo, developed NES Golf.

Bowser's Inside Story is the best Mario & Luigi game.  In fact, I'd say it's probably the second best Mario RPG ever, only right behind Thousand Year Door.

Yeah I have pretty 'low def' eyes, so I really can't tell much difference in 4K stuff and whatever.

I can't decide which Mario & Luigi game is the easiest.  I would say the first one, but the last boss is very hard.  Partners in Time had you keeping track of four buttons instead of two, since you controlled both Mario & Luigi and the babies, and I always had a hard time with that.  But I've beaten all the Mario & Luigi games except for Dream Team, because that one just got too long and meandering and boss battles took my whole entire lunch hour to beat!  Way too long for bosses, I think.

Back in 2006, I bought my first big screen flat TV.  A few months after I got my 360, actually.  That TV was a significant purchase for me because ever since I was a little kid, I always wanted a big screen TV.  So it felt nice to finally buy one with my own money.  People told me that TV won't last more than ten years, but I'm still using it and it still works fine to me.  That's why I won't get another TV right now.  My philosophy for most things is 'why buy something you pretty much already have?'

Video games, especially downloadable only ones, should really have more explicit instructions included.  I just finished reviewing a cooking game but I couldn't get very far because I couldn't figure out how to buy new dishes.  Piss poor instructions was the problem.

I played through a good majority of the first Ni no Kuni game.  But it got way too long and meandering so I stopped.  I never tried the sequel for that reason, but they changed the battle system so I don't know if I'd like it that much.

Partners in Time is one of the weaker entries in the Mario & Luigi series.  The babies are adorable, though.  SPOILER ALERT: It's so sad when Baby Luigi has to go back to his own time at the end and he doesn't want to leave.

I had fun watching my friend play Zelda 2 when we were kids.  But when I finally played it for myself, I did not like it at all.  I'm glad they went back to the original formula for future installments.  To me, Zelda 2 is the hardest Zelda game.  Breath of the Wild is the second hardest.

A port of Kirby Air Ride would be great.  A sequel would be even better.

The PSP and Vita screens were so wonderful.  Better than the Switch?  Maybe.  Leaning towards yeah.
