Let’s talk about the games we played in 2020! Not just the occasional play, but games you focused on more than others. Also shout out any personal achievements you made in a game last year.

The Pandemic had me in front of the screen more than any other time since I was a kid.

**Link’s Awakening, Nintendo Switch**  
A glorious remaster. I spent the first few months of the year completing a 100% play through.

**Metroid: Fusion, GBA (emulated on the GameShell)**  
Back in 2006 I bought a Nintendo DS with Metroid Prime Hunters. Hunters was a let down but the GameBoy Advanced slot in the DS allowed me to access to one of the Metroid franchise’s best games: **Fusion**! Revisiting Fusion on the GameShell in 2020 is a real treat. It feels more like a modern retro-throwback than a 20 year old game. The GameShell’s superior hardware and screen make the game’s sprite animations sparkle like never before. I recommend it to any fan of the platformer or adventure genres. The Fusion game engine was also used to make **Metroid: Zero Mission** , which is a remake of the original NES Metroid. I recommend Fusion as the better of the two games, if you finish that and want more, grab a copy of Zero.

**Castlevania: Circle of the Moon, GBA (emulated on the GameShell)**  
I love Metroidvania games! While not the greatest examples of this genre…or even the best Castlevania games…the 3 GBA Castlevania titles are fun and unique gems for die hard sidescrolling gamers.

Not a die hard fan of the sidescrolling platform era? Then skip these and play **Symphony of the Night,** for PS One, instead. It is considered one of the greatest games ever made for a dam good reason.

**Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Switch**  
Pinnacle of the genre. After a 100 hour play through of this game and the challenges still feel fresh and it still engages the player.

**Illusion Of Gaia, SNES, (Emulated on a RetroPie)**  
This game is not for everyone and there are better examples of Action RPG games for the SNES but it is still a lot of fun. Light puzzle solving. Wonderful music and storytelling.

Can’t wait to hear what you have been playing!

Animal Crossing. The only and best game of the decade.

**Detroit: Become Human, PS4**  
Joined the search for the meaning of life. Their city streets scene still looks 10x better than the recently released Cyberpunk 2077.

[![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/btWlymOactg/maxresdefault.jpg "Detroit: Become Human Romance on the city streets of Detroit.") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btWlymOactg)

**God of War, PS4**  
Instantly made me a fan of Norse mythology. Great story and graphics. Made other games feel pixelated.

**Art Academy, Nintendo DS**  
The best old-school drawing software. Can’t believe I can draw this.

 ![ARTACADEMY](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex029/uploads/clockworkpi/original/2X/7/7bbcf6db925d18a396d5ac82a57ae50cbc906365.jpeg)

**Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, Nintendo 3DS**  
Deep story-driven ~~visual novel~~ game. Got me into the idea of the court system.
