Phantasy Star
I don't know that I have the patience to get invested in this. The start of the game is ROUGH and leaves a poor first impression.

Shantae and the Pirate's Curse
Stressful, but much better than the other Shantae game I played. Lots of charm, good soundtrack, well-paced gameplay so far.

Star Trek: Away Team
I'm liking this so far. The learning curve is just right, the gameplay is flexible, I'm a big fan of this style of graphics, and it feels Trek-worthy.

Give it time. Just bask in those colorful SMS graphics. Nobody will blame you looking up a guide, that's what I did, looking up maps and stuff on PS Cave.

Simply trying to add more people to my multitap. I find when I see what others are playing it can motivate me to try games I normally would not or may not have heard of previously. I look for users with active accounts or accounts with lots of games.

If you haven't fired up your Wii U in a while, you should do so. Apparently it can brick itself after long periods of disuse. Maybe you'll be like me and discover half a dozen Virtual Console games you forgot to add to your Backloggery.

what's wrong with Freshwater Frenzy? I haven't played since the expansion came out.

And I accept your add.
Speaking of banners I'm very tempted to animate yours, get those anti-friction... brick... things whatever they are, blinking. (Certainly one of the more abstract Rockman stages.)

I've seen you around here and there for a while now but never stopped in. Took a quick look at your SNES page (can you tell what my era is), can't say I agree with a number of things I've read but yeah, overall I think we're good.

That Mega Man 35th Annreverseary Marathon was a good idea, might check that out later.

I actually haven't done the research as to whether or not it has any extras. I've read from a few sources that it runs really well, and it being on the Switch is a big plus for me, but I think your mileage may vary. Case in point: my brother will always just prefer to play the original version on Gamecube (or Dolphin) because the later releases removed many of the sequence break tricks and glitches, and my brother is that kind of gamer who loves stuff like that. I suspect this one too is the "fixed" version.

But yes, in my case, it's a matter of "I'll gladly pay the 49.99 CAD to re-play the game, but with the option to take it with me hassle-free", especially since I'm working at the office fairly regularly again.
No matter where you go, there you are.
