Ace Combat 7.
Thoroughly enjoyed the game. The story is utter nonsense but really enjoyable nonsense but who really cares when the actual aerial combat is this good.
Great game and my favourite of the year so far.

Game: Castlevania II: Simon's Quest (Redacted)
Platform: NES (NES Classic)
Considering the original release was a clunky mess in regards to general direction, I had to go with the patched version that fixes all those confusing elements. However, even with that, I still got fairly confused where I was supposed to go next I ended up using a guide half way through it.
I enjoyed it but I'm not sure I was a huge fan of the abundance of walking from place to place, as well as the backtracking. I prefer the linear style of the original.
Took me about 4 hours to beat, and because I took so long I ended up with the Bad Ending.
Oh well, I'm happy I got to experience Castlevania 2 for the first time in some capacity.

Game: Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse
Platform: NES (NES Classic)
This game would be enough to turn you to the drink.
My recorded playtime shows about 2 hours, but it really took me about 5 hours becausw of the amount of times I had to retry various parts.
It's good but I think I stressed myself out more than anything. I think it was because I went through the hardest route.
Not sure if I'll go back to it. Maybe if I did I could take the easiest route to give myself a break but as it stands, it is definitely the toughest Castlevania game out of the original three and I'm happy to say I beat Castlevania 3.

Megaman - Difficulty: Cunt Tier
Beaten this game before. Thought it would be handy. It wasnt. Robot master stages are ok. Wiley stages are just horrible. The boss gauntlets are set up to wear you down and the yellow devil took me 2 ****ing hours to kill.
Megaman 2 on difficult.
This is kind of my game so beaten it dozens of times. Huge improvement over the original in many ways. Way more fair. Less bull**** design. And some stuff like E tanks help players out. Still my favourite nes game of all time.

Great megaman game but I feel it's not as good as 2. There's a few too many glitches (like the floating platforms in Snake mans stage) and while it's a longer game, I don't feel it's a better one than 2. Still well worth your time and has some cracking music.
Megaman 4
While I did enjoy this one it's a big step back from Megaman 2 and 3. The mega buster doesn't really work that well and especially when the game is constantly dropping inputs due to lag. Losing charge when you get hit is also infuriating. I don't feel the game is as fair as 2 and 3 either but it tries to compensate by throwing E-tanks at the player which you can stack up as much as you want of. Boss and level design isn't as well thought out. Frogman in particular is a total pushover and one of the worst designed bosses in the series. The Legacy collection at least fixes the issue of the megabuster charge sound effect using up one of the music channels which ruins the music somewhat. It's still a fun game but feels very rushed. The megaman 4 bosses that returned in the Megaman 3 Gameboy game were better designed with better levels.

Beat the fan translation on a SNES.
Crappy story. Excellent gameplay. The job system is just fantastic fun to mess around with. Last dungeon was good fun and a challenge but once you are powered up the last boss is a total pushover and anticlimax.
It's a good breezy 35 hour RPG and a highlight of the series.
