Sad that Chrono Trigger wasn't included but the list is pretty solid besides that. I like DKC2 the most out of the three but at least they got one of them in there and 1 is still a really good game. Of course I'll be pleasantly surprised if I'm actually able to get my hands on one of these things given how the NES Classic went.

This looks really cool.... and could be a maybe for me...

****************

But in all honesty, Atari was fun to play back in the days but the sub 8bit era graphics for most of its games made them a little too plain for me to get into... or even like.  Also, I could never get into their joystick and one button layout on their controllers.

This weekend is pretty big for Nintendo fans...

Got all of the final Smash Amiibos today. Still kind of ticked the way Amazon.com jerked people around with their Corrin P2 exclusivity.

All of them look pretty sweet IMO.

My brother picked up Splatoon 2.

I'm gonna try out his copy before deciding if I want it for myself or not.

As of Wednesday, when she (Corrin P2 amiibo) I will have the complete Amiibo set for Smash Bros 4. And once some other shipments arrive, I will only have Mario, Bowser, and Yoshi left for a Sealed set.

Still got my Odyssey2. Pull it out every now and then when nostalgia hits. Play for about 10 minutes and then realize what **** games they were back in the day compared to now. Box up and store away for the next time 80s memories haunt me....

Yeah, pre NES / SMS era graphics are almost too plain for me to deal with. That said, some of the C64 Wii VC titles I got to play looked ok for that era.

We got any PUBG players here? I am absolutely horrendous at it but damn I can just put hours and hours and hours into that thing and it's yet to get old or repetitive. Feel free to add me but like I said, I'm horrendous.

Ditto...definitely interested though. I've been watching a lot of Dr. Disrespect's stream and it seems like something I would like, just been burned by early access so many times that I'm not paying until it goes gold.

Also, for the first time in almost 8 months, I picked up No Man's Sky after the newest update and it plays like a completely different game. I thoroughly enjoyed the couple of hours I spent on a new story last night.

Anyone play ARMA? I want to buy this game and get into it but worried that the learning curve might be a bit steep.

Are you talking about PUBG or ARMA being too steep...ARMA is ROUGH is you don't put in the time and don't like being killed A LOT. Also, make sure you have a great monitor. You'll basically need to be able to register individual pixels to be anything better than average at that game. I played ARMA 2 for a few years and I wouldn't consider it "fun" in the way that a Battlefield or CoD are. It's a full Sim, so it plays extremely differently than just run and gunners.
