For some reason, I never thought I'd hit 100 reviews. But we're here, so let's just take this moment together, and I hope you enjoy my review of one of the best games ever made: Mother 3. Thank you for all the support. - - - - - > https://thegameboyabyss.neocities.org/reviews/mother3100.html

This Monday... you ready for the longest review I've ever written? 4000 words on the best game on the GBA? Will it be poorly written? Probably. Will it bare my heart? Absoloutly.

Thank you for your service, I love detailed and long form reviews, so always look forward to your stuff. But as with everyone on here I'm glad you're going your own pace and not churning it out as you mention (or burning out). FWIW I haven't played any of the games you did this year but my favourite review was Sitting Ducks, which I read to the soundtrack.

Thank you! Sitting Ducks was also one of my favourite reviews from this year, it's just... yeah.

Excellent work this year! Can also vouch for the value of lengthier and more in-depth reviews, I think you do it well and your reviews are a lot of fun (and frankly an inspiration for my own site). Favourite review this year was Chobits definitely. Happy New Year!

But fear not! As always, I plan to write a Year in Review article, and I plan to have that out by the end of the year. So, thanks again for always reading!

Sorry for the radio silence, y'all! Work and life has been kicking my ass, so I haven't been able to put the time into the website I'd like. I really wanted to hit Game #100 this year, but I don't think I can do it and give the review and game the care I want. So, I'd expect my Mother 3 review to come out in the first half of January!

I now have an RSS feed that is under construction! https://thegameboyabyss.neocities.org/rss.xml It's still a work in progress, so items may appear and disappear. ATM, Chobit should be the only thing there, but I'll be adding new items as they're released on the site.

You might see some older reviews out of order, that was just something that didn't work so they should be gone within the hour

I can't believe how many years I've wasted not playing a game where I can unlock outfits for Chii.

I can assure you at least one of your followers (me) is a cute robot girl enjoyer and completionist (I swear I'm going to live long enough to see technology reach a point where I can become a cyborg(doll)) and can also confirm that I am a huge Chobits fan and it's one of my favourite anime. So yes, this doll was overjoyed to see this review of a Chobits game I had no idea was even fan translated until now!

i'm currently playing the same chobits set on RA that you are!! chobits twins!!! playing this game without a walkthrough has been a trial and by my 12th attempt at getting a new ending sumomo has become the god damn joker to me. anyway i really enjoyed your review!! it has become one of scarce few english-language writeups on this game which is pretty cool

@daikonet Finding those ending cheevos has been hellish, I've taken a break but it's a good set to work through!

It's a fantastic one, too! Congrats, and here's to a hundred more!
Congrats on the huge milestone and a great review filled with infectious passion! Honestly, watching a let's play of Mother 3 instead of playing it myself is one of my biggest regrets (I was anti-emulation back then and figured I'd never play it otherwise). Dramedy is a delicate balance and few execute it quite as masterfully as Mother 3.
I appreciate your spoiler warnings, from your pre-amble I'm going to bookmark this one until I eventually-finally-honestly-I'm-really-going-to-this-time play Mother 3!
