Yeah I'm sure I paid MSRP on the Ryza games, as I bought them soon as they released. FOMO is a helluva drug.

Decided to burn a little cash on GOG during their sale. Snagged the following: - Vengeful Guardian: Moonrider - Vambrace: Cold Soul - Alone in the Dark 1/2/3 - Hero-U: Rogue to Redemption - The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing: Final Cut - Zwei: The Arges Adventure Set me back $33. I already had a physical of Moonrider, but it's unopened and staying that way now.

Of those games the only ones I've beaten are Alone in the Dark 1 & 2. I played a fair bit of that Van Helsing game with my wife, but got burned out on it after 7 or so hours. I approve of the rest of the games you bought, especially Zwei 1. It sure would be great if Zwei 1 & 2 were ported to Switch, but I'm sure you can enjoy them on the Deck somehow.

I'm still bumming Moonrider was kind of in one ear and out the other for me. It was just fine. But I want to say maybe Sarge didn't like Blazing Chrome as much as I did, I freaking loved that one. Maybe he'll like Moonrider more than me.
Still excited with whatever those devs do next though. They have some 16bit secret sauce that others are lacking.

Yep, I'm sure I'll be playing them on the Deck primarily. Or at least swapping from PC to Deck.
And yeah, I enjoyed Blazing Chrome, but I wasn't absolutely wild about it. It's closer to Hard Corps than anything, which isn't my favorite Contra. I still gave it an 8/10 if memory serves. I've been told that Moonrider is actually a Hagane-like, and I do enjoy that game quite a bit.

Ordered Unicorn Overlord and Prinny Classics Vol. 3 from Video Games Plus. Roughly $66 total converting from CAD to USD. I probably didn't need Prinny, but I was interested in having the complete Rhapsody set on Switch as well as the dramatically expanded La Pucelle Tactics.

I approve of buying Unicorn Overlord for sure. I've got a sealed Switch copy myself, might even play it someday!

Whaaaaaaat? Play it... someday? Why would you ever do that? I totally know the feeling, I've still got several Switch games sealed on my shelf. Also, keep an eye on Video Games Plus. They do tons of reprints, and their pricing seems fair.
