Posted December 29, 2016 The year is almost up, so what better time than to waste time by cataloguing what time we spent on Nintendo games this year. It has been a slow year, granted, but maybe we spent more than we thought. Last year: http://www.n-europe.com/forum/showthread.php?t=58009&highlight=activity Here's mine Nintendo 3DS - Main (For Fun) Pokémon Moon - 16:57 Pokémon Alpha Sapphire - 14:57 Kirby: Planet Robobot - 12:17 Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam Bros. - 10:57 Nintendo Badge Arcade - 8:23 BOXBOXBOY! - 7:24 My Nintendo PICROSS - The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess HD - 5:33 Pokémon Yellow - 4:32 Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS - 1:48 Chibi Robo Zip Lash - 1:03 Pokémon Sun & Moon Special Demo Version -0:52 The Legend of Zelda Links Awakening DX - 0:44 The Legend of Zelda Tri Force Heroes - 0:43 METROID PRIME BLAST BALL - 0:41 Pokémon Shuffle - 0:34 Nintendo 3DS - Japanese Coverage Pokémon Shuffle - 102:31 Nintendo Badge Arcade - 24:42 Pokémon Moon - 19:13 Pokémon Alpha Sapphire - 10:11 Pokémon Green - 7:36 Detective Pikachu ~Birth of A New Duo~ - 5:59 Pokémon Sun & Moon Special Demo Version - 3:15 Pokémon Y - 1:31 Nintendo 3DS - UK Coverage Pokémon Sun - 149:01 Pokémon Shuffle - 107:29 Pokémon Omega Ruby - 15:52 Nintendo Badge Arcade - 3:52 Pokémon Bank: 1:02 Pokémon Sun & Moon Special Demo Version 0:43 Pokémon X: 0:30 Pokémon Blue: 0:24 Wii U Pokkén Tournament - 66:59 Super Mario Maker - 48:07 Xenoblade Chronicles X - 40:57 Paper Mario Color Splash - 28:02 The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD - 27:50 Wii Fit U - 25:16 Super Smash Bros. - 15:02 Minecraft Wii U Edition - 8:32 Star Fox Zero - 8:26 Star Fox Guard - 5:14 Mini Mario & Friends amiibo Challenge - 4:41 Affordable Space Adventures - 4:09 Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 - 2:17 Super Mario RPG - 2:12 Pokémon Snap - 2:01 Wave Race 64 - 1:48 Super Mario 3D World - 1:39 LEGO Dimensions - 1:14 Splatoon - 1:03 Shanae and the Pirate's Curse - 1:00 Just Dance 2016 (My girlfriend forced it on me) - 0:56 Mario Kart 64 - 0:45 Pokémon Ranger Shadows of Almia - 0:45 New Super Mario Bros.

Posted December 30, 2016 3DS Dragon Quest VII - 126:16 Etrian Odssey Untold 2: The Fafnir Knight - 112:02 Stella Glow - 91:28 3D Sonic the Hedgehog 2 - 1:50 I enjoyed all of these, apart from Sonic 2, which I should have left in the past (not a judgement on the quality of the game; I'm just terrible at the Special Stage). It was nice to play DQ VII, although it wasn't as good as I'd hoped. Etrian Odyssey Untold 2 provided a lot of fun, but these remakes eventually wear thinner than the originals. Stella Glow, on the other hand, is a nice little strategy RPG. Wii U Shantae: Half-Genie Hero - 11:47 The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD - 4:46 Shantae: Risky's Revenge - 3:51 All good buys on the Wii U. Twilight Princess HD was really very good, and I should have given it more time. I'm a bit tired of Risky's Revenge now (having played it a lot on the DS), and I think a bit more attention could have been given to it, especially as it's a "Director's Cut". It's probably the most daunting game in the series to speed run, which I still haven't achieved. All in all, I didn't play much, but enjoyed most of it.

Posted January 1, 2017 Incredibly poor year for me on the 2 Nintendo Platforms. Thank god I have a PS4. Monster Hunter Generations and using the Wii U (Super Mario World) and 3DS (Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island) to help play and complete all the retro Mario games from Super Mario Bros to Super Mario 64 during March stopped the numbers being even lower. Take them away and you can see why I'm struggling to get excited for the Switch. 3DS Monster Hunter: Generations - 76:07 Yoshi's Island - 13:32 Star Fox 64 3D - 1:47 Nano Assault EX - 0:38 Animal Crossing: New Leaf - 0:37 Wii U Shantae and the Pirate's Curse - 13:05 Super Mario World - 10:01 Mario Kart 8 - 2:45 Affordable Space Adventures - 0:29 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 2, 2017 (edited) Time has been tight for me this year and there's a lot I haven't had time to play that I've wanted to (I'm looking at you, Paper Mario Colour Splash, Tokyo Mirage Illusions, Super Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, Mario & Luigi Paper Jam and more...), but here's my list anyway! Wii U - Only counting stuff that I've played more than an hour; can't be bothered working out total play time exactly, but it's probably between 210-230 hours Internet Browser (Grand Champion!)- 49:34 Mario Kart 8 - 34:43 Smash Bros Wii U - 19:24 Super Mario Maker - 18:34 Star Fox Zero - 17:16 Metroid Other M - 16:24 Bayonetta 2 - 14:15 Yoshi's Wooly World - 10:24 Shantae: Half Genie Hero - 8:50 Pokken Tournament - 8:02 Wario Land The Shake Dimension - 6:59 Metroid Fusion - 5:06 Star Fox Guard - 4:04 Shovel Knight - 3:56 FAST Racing Neo - 3:35 Wii Fit U - 3:32 Kirby Power Paintbrush - 3:28 Wii Party U - 1:57 Nintendo Land - 1:13 Mii Maker - 1:04 Super Mario Advance 4 - 2:46 Axiom Verge - 2:34 Star Fox 64 - 2:01 Human Resource Machine - 1:33 Miiverse - 1:26 Advance Wars - 1:15 3DS - Total Play time = 333:50 Monster Hunter Generations - 56:16 Rhythm Paradise Megamix - 36:03 Ace Attorney: Spirit of Justice - 25:54 Zero Escape: Zero Time Dilemma - 25:32 Kirby: Planet Robobot - 20:32 Smash Bros 3DS - 18:45 Pokemon Blue - 16:22 Mario & Luigi Dream Team - 15:13 Pokemon Omega Ruby - 14:45 Fire Emblem Awakening - 14:32 Pokemon Platinum - 14:23 Dillon's Rolling Western: The Last Ranger - 7:46 Yo-Kai Watch - 6:54 Miiverse - 5:39 Metroid Prime Federation Force - 5:00 BOXBOY! - 4:31 Nintendo eShop - 2:47 Mario Party Star Rush - 2:18 New Super Mario Bros 2 - 1:58 Monster Hunter Generations Demo - 1:58 Metroid Prime Blast Ball - 1:54 Mario Party Star Rush: Party Guest - 1:50 Ultimate NES Remix - 1:42 Download Play - 1:38 42 All Time Classics - 1:29 Pocket Card Jockey Demo - 1:27 Flipnote Studio 3D - 1:25 Kid Icarus Uprising - 1:18 Starfox 64 3D - 1:18 Tetris 3DS - 1:17 Other - 21:26 Not sure why Pocket Card Jockey isn't showing up, considering that the demo is I played that quite a bit and all! Overall, it was a quiet year with some quality releases, but I've not really had time to play a lot of them sadly. Hopefully I'll rectify that this year! I'll do Wii U once I can work out where to find a list of games you've played by year time. You have to add up each month manually. There's no yearly list on Wii U sadly.

Posted January 2, 2017 Verdict:Aside from Monster Hunter Generations which has been the saviour of my Nintendo gaming year and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon, I clearly need to play more where possible. From last year. Verdict: Though I've enjoyed various Virtual Console titles, a slew of Sega classics, numerous new experiences and have racked-up some reasonable retail reviews; I simply feel like I need to dedicate more time to gaming overall. Try harder. :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 2, 2017 From last year. Try harder. :p I know, this year I feel like I've really let myself down in terms of games actually played and completed. This year however I'm hoping to significantly Switch it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 3, 2017 (edited) Move aside, Chumps. Let me show you how a real loony does things! Prepare for a tale of woe, constant Astalos fights, Inward Drifting shenanigans and more than a few Kecleon deals. 3DS 95 Titles / 2,860 hours, 17 minutes Hyrule Warriors Legends - 490:49 Monster Hunter Generations - 366:36 Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon - 228:58 Puzzle & Dragons Z + Super Mario Bros. Edition - 225:36 Pokemon Sun - 166:06 Dragon Quest 7 - 158:58 Bravely Second - 147:55 Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky - 106:38 Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity - 91:45 Colours! 3D – 89:37 Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam Bros. 78:15 Super Smash Bros. For Nintendo 3DS – 70:29 Pokemon Art Academy – 56:49 Theatrhythm Final Fantasy: Curtain Call – 48:38 Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney: Spirit of Justice – 47:12 (Eh? Not sure what happened there...) Pokemon Omega Ruby – 35:47 Pocket Card Jockey – 34:54 Animal Crossing: New Leaf – 29:37 (Damn Amiibo update) Rhythm Paradise Megamix – 29:03 EarthBound – 27:06 Pokemon Yellow – 26:39 Zero Escape: Zero Time Dilemma – 22:34 Kirby: Planet Robobot – 21:38 My Nintendo Picross – 19:41 microSD Management – 18:19 (Not joking, it’s the only way I can get my Art Academy pictures online without Miiverse butchering the quality) Ace Attorney Investigations 2 – 16:55 Miiverse – 15:43 Streetpass Mii Plaza – 13:25 Flipnote Studio 3D – 13:01 Fire Emblem: Awakening – 12:19 And the rest – 149:15 And before I decimate everyone’s WiiU’s times. (Because trust me, I did), I should point out my WiiU clock is utterly borked. It can’t keep time right. It’s so bad, it thinks I’ve played nothing last month. Therefore, these times aren’t completely accurate. They’re close enough though. I’ve left out games totalling under an hour, because who cares? WiiU 1,077 Hours and 1 minute Stupid minute... Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team – 200:19 Xenoblade Chronicles X – 199:39 Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky – 144:52 Super Smash Bros. For Nintendo WiiU – 133:51 Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE – 82:11 Metroid Prime Trilogy – 44:14 Mario Kart 8 – 43:44 Paper Mario: Colour Splash – 37:42 Paper Mario – 26:55 Game & Watch Gallery Advance – 18:43 The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD – 15:47 Nintendo Land – 15:47 (Yay for exact same times!) Super Mario Maker – 15:44 Wii Party U – 14:03 Miiverse – 13:47 Shantae: Half-Genie Hero – 10:08 Super Mario Advance 4 – 9:49 Bayonetta 2 – 8:52 Runbow – 7:29 Freedom Planet – 6:35 Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars – 5:45 Nintendo eShop – 4:23 The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass – 3:17 Super Mario 3D World – 2:33 Wave Race 64 – 2:04 Internet Browser – 1:51 (Guarantee that’s @Dcubed’s fault, bet he just used mine by accident and couldn’t be bothered to switch consoles.) Mini Mario & Friends – 1:29 Mii Maker – 1:23 (There’s a good reason for that, I swear) Child of Light – 1:20 Bayonetta – 1:09 So going by playtime alone, my Top 10 games of utter disbelief and shame are... Hyrule Warriors Legends - 490:49 Monster Hunter Generations - 366:36 Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky – 251:30 (Same game, 2 consoles) Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon - 228:58 Puzzle & Dragons Z + Super Mario Bros. Edition - 225:36 Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team – 200:19 Xenoblade Chronicles X – 199:39 Pokemon Sun - 166:06 Dragon Quest 7 - 158:58 Bravely Second - 147:55 You'd think 2016 was a bad year (It totally was), but I've actually played more than I did last year. Guess that shows how crummy this year was, huh? Edited January 3, 2017 by Glen-i Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
