So, as all you noobs have noticed, I haven't been on here much these days. It's a common theme amongst players of video games, though, to miraculously lose time due to their addiction. What I have is a summary of my addiction over the past half year:

Game & Wario (Wii U) - This game is definitely a perfect party game. It is well worth the $40 investment for only one mini-game called "Islands". In this mini-game, for those unfamiliar with it, you shoot these weird cube-like critters called Fronks on to platforms in the water. The goal of the game, like any other game, is to win! ...or for the trolls out there, the goal is to make someone else lose. This mini-game is for 2-5 players and everyone uses the Gamepad. All other games, single or multi player are just bonuses.

Earthbound (Wii U Virtual Console) - Second best classic RPG ever! First best was Final Fantasy 6 (3 on the SNES). With things like big foot liking beef jerky and zombie invasions happening before they were mainstream, this game was before its time and is definitely worth the $10 investment!

Tank! Tank! Tank! (Wii U) - This is a port of the arcade game with the same title with some minor changes for multiplayer mode. Trying to unlock everything in single player takes forever. Multiplayer can be fun if all four tanks are humans. This is a better party game than single player game. If you like senseless destruction and tank-on-tank action, get a physical copy since it will most likely be less than $20. The digital download last I checked adds up to over $30.

Pikmin 3 (Wii U) - I don't think I need to really describe this game as it is a Pikmin game and, therefore, is awesome. For those that have played this: BINGO BATTLE! For those that have not: BINGO BATTLE! Nintendo also has released two packs of downloadable content for this game. If you have a Wii U, you need this game.

Pokemon X (3DS) - ...over 60 hours so far. Trying to breed for some perfect stat Pokey-mens. So much time invested...

Wind Waker HD (Wii U) - Zelda game, high definition. Yes, it is a remake of the Gamecube version, but the graphics are so awesome! It's like playing a cartoon! Miiverse integration with the Tingle Bottles is a really nice new touch. Swift Sail = best item in game (anyone that played the original and had to slowly sail places would agree).

Mario Kart 7 (3DS) - Of course, I've had this game forever. I've gotten a VR of over 10k and have collected over 25k coins. It's still fun to troll noobs in online races. The most time this gets from me, though, is lunch every day. A group of my friends at work have 3DSes and MK7 and we meet at Taco Bell to play. There are usually 5-8 of us that go each day.

World of Warcraft, Warcraft 3, Starcraft 2, Diablo 3, Goldeneye (N64), Diddy Kong Racing (N64) and DOTA2 make this list, too, but they're not quite what this site is about, so no descriptions will be made by me.

And with Super Mario 3D World and The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds on their way, things will just get worse time-wise!

I'm sure I'm missing a game or two, but those are at least the most memorable ones that have been fulfilling my video game addiction and preventing me from trolling nooblets on this website. I apologize for the neglect you all must be feeling by not getting Ban Hammers of Awesomeness smacking you out of chatroom existence for 24 hours.
