Games I'm looking forward to in 2016

With 2015 coming to an end I thought I would share the games I'm looking forward to in 2016

First off is the long awaited Kingdom Hearts 3. Men I have been waiting for this game so long. So very long. Kingdom Hearts is probably the first single player game (beside for Pokemon and Harvest Moon) that I fell in love with. Up till Kingdom Hearts, when I wasn't playing Pokemon, I was playing party games like Super Smash Bros and Mario Kart with my siblings or friends. Until my cousin introduced me to Kingdom Hearts.

Second is Final Fantasy XV. Square Enix makes such good games and Final Fantasy is one of my favorite series. I have been a fan of Final Fantasy since I played Final Fantasy X way back. I kind of feel like I don't have to explain why I'm excited for this game, just because it is a Final Fantasy game and it is made by Square Enix.

Lastly is Pokemon Go. If you know me at all, you know I'm a massive Pokemon fan. I fell in love years ago when Pokemon Blue and Red first came out. So I have been a fan for awhile now. The idea of being able to run around in the real world catching, training and battling Pokemon is such a great one. I'm so looking forward to be able to do the stuff that I do in game in the real world.


In other words I'm only looking forward to Pokemon and Square Enix game.

My Very First Video Game

I have been playing video games for as long as I can remember. I have been playing since I was a young child. I also had older siblings who also played video games, so for me it was only normal that I got into gaming. I can't remember the very first video game I ever played, but I do remember what game was the very first game that was my own game. That game was Pokemon Blue.

I got into Pokemon though a neighbor who discovered the game and introduced it to me. I got hooked and really enjoyed playing it. I went on to borrowing Pokemon Yellow from them and loved having a little tiny Pikachu follow me around. Come on Pikachu is super cute, how can you not love it?

I have some fond memories of playing Pokemon Blue, like playing Pokemon Blue on long car rides to see family while listening to a tape my brother made. It was a recovering of the first couple of episodes of the anime, during the first episode my brother had recorded my name - Sarah, over that of Ash.

Ok so there is no hiding just how much I loved Pokemon back in the, not that I can say much has changed as I'm sitting here typing this in a Pikachu onesie. All I'm missing is my Pikachu slippers, and my Pikachu pillow. Yes, I have a Pikachu onesie, Pikachu slippers and Pikachu pillow, don't you?

Supanova 2015 write up

About two weeks ago Supanova was on. I decided to go on the Sunday. I cosplayed as Dreadlord from Warhammar in the morning and Sabrina from Pokemon in the afternoon.

While I enjoyed, going I thought the amount of panels, screenings and things to do in general to be lacking. If I went for both days I think I would have gotten bored. I got there just before 10am, and ended up leaving just after 3pm after seeing the Matthew Lewis panel.

One thing I was surprise about was how little I ended up buying. I liked how much there was on offer but due to limited version in the morning while I was looking, I couldn't take as much in, and only went to a couple of stalls in the afternoon that stood out.
