Star Parodier

Either the person who told me this is the easiest shmup on the VC is an idiot, or else this genre sucks. What a pain in the ass game this is. I got to the stage 5 boss and got him down to his final form on my first try, then died. Now I've spent 9 continues just trying to get him to that point again. I have a feeling this is one of those genres/games where you get better by doing the same thing over and over and over again, since I can get past the mid-boss pretty regularly now, but the problem is I just don't have that kind of attention span. It was fine the first couple times, but after playing the same damn stage 30+ times, I'm starting to get really bored.

Retro Game Challenge

I beat the game. All I have left to do to complete the game is complete Guadia Quest all the way.

Space Invaders Extreme

I cleared the easy (-A) path and unlocked Extreme Mode, and now I'm working on the harder path. I think I'm at 3-B right now.

Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon

I'm on Chapter 10. This game is wonderful.
