Catchup time

Beaten Game: Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn
This game is fantastic. For some reason when it came out on the Wii I just wasn't interested at all. I played a few levels and went ok? But this version makes it more kirby like adding in some abilities like cutter and sword just yarn themed. IIRC there are about 6 of them in all and they really make this game more lively. It also helps with the pacing of the game because unless I needed too...I walked the entire game!

By the end of this game I had such high appreciation for it with my one gripe being how falling in a pit just wrecks your bead counter....and that is fine for stages with seldom pits but later worlds have a few stages that are living pits. Otherwise this game was great, the music and graphical combo here, surprisingly amazing boss fights. Yeah this is one of my top kirby games

Beaten Game: Mario Tennis Aces
And now for a game I didn't like at all. Aces is gorgeous and has great Toad commentary. Otherwise this game was just not good. I'm appreciative they brought back a story mode for Tennis with RPG leveling but the game ends up being a series of semi busted mini games, rigged tennis matches, and boss battles that look fun but are no fun to play.

The game also focuses on the zone shot. It lets you slowdown time to chase a ball (eh), hit R on a spinning star pad to go into a first person mode to cheat shot an easy point (necessary but eh), or at a full meter do a sick animation and get an over the top point. On paper this is great but the AI shows you why this blows fast, you can build meter quickly and a fun tennis rally is quickly butchered by you guessed it.....SUPER SAIYAN TENNIS POWERS.

Most of my AI tennis matches consisted of trying to block their zone shots so we could just play normal tennis for 10 seconds. If you fail to hit the ball at all the AI gets a point. If you try to block and hit too early or too late, your racket takes damage. Miss three times (this can happen in literal seconds with the way the AI spams) and your racket breaks. In some minigames this can be game over, in others you get 4 rackets to burn thru. Either way why?

The most fun I had with the game was during the doubles and single finals in the storys tournament. Yes the AI had powers but I actually got brief moments of tennis....before they zone shotted constantly.
