Platforming games were abundant during the PS1 and PS2 era. The familiarity of the genre lead to many series being developed in order to cash in on that craze. Dr. Muto from Midway wasn't going to win any awards, but it's existence is what I love about collecting video games. Such a random game from a well known developer that will inevitably fall into obscurity (if it hasn't already). I love it!⠀

I consistently get this game mixed up with Enslaved: Odyssey to the West, despite these two games being nothing alike. Majin here has you playing as the little guy on the box, while the bigger guy, the Majin, can be commanded to do certain actions. Puzzle solving was big and the tandem of the two characters is a big part of the adventure.⠀

Much like the Playstation before it, the Nintendo DS family saw many RPGs grace its systems. The Legend of Legacy was an RPG I played but wasn't able to fully get into. I think it was the game's intricate battle system: there is a lot of depth to it and I just didn't give it the time it deserves. On a side note, a friend really likes this game because the composer, Masashi Hamauzu, is the same composer that worked on the Saga Frontier series. ⠀

If you've been collecting video games long enough you can probably recall some games seemingly sitting on the shelf for years and years, with no one bothering to brush the dust off of them. This was Herdy Gerdy for me. I would see it in the used game pile at a local store month after month, eventually year after year. I decided to give it a caring home but still haven't played it.⠀
