My Best of 2015
I played these games in 2015! They didn't all come out in 2015, but what are you going to do, I'm way behind! Actually, I haven't even completed some of these games yet, but if I love them, they're in.

This was one of the most amazing experiences I've had with a visual novel. I adore its story and its characters in a way I cannot actually put into words. Probably the most a game has meant to me since Persona 4 Golden. Beautiful.
-
I'm only a bit into this game (it only came out a couple weeks ago!) but it is a culmination of so many classic JRPG elements, with a vast world backing it, and then they threw in Persona-like elements. Vast, traditional-feeling JRPG with great characters and some social bonds stuff. This presses all of my buttons.
-
This is the game I've wanted to play since I got Super Mario Bros. 3. Damned brilliant. I could (and probably might) play this forever.

I went to Evo for the first time because of this game, and got bodied by a top Japanese player because of it. This game is pretty cool, and I've had great times with it --- on my own, with friends, and hey --- it dragged me to at least one tournament.
-
I really like these games! Their story is simple, cute, for-the-audience jokey stuff, but gosh darn it, if it isn't a fun and silly set of story and characters they've put together. Add on some really solid JRPG combat, and a really addictive dungeon-to-town-to-dungeon-and-repeat loop, and all three of the games combine to this spot.
-
Gridders are great! I love gridders! Given that it's borne of ToHeart, it is a bit ecchi at points, but the actual dungeon crawling is SO GOOD.
-
It took me forever to get to this, but I finally did on Vita, and yeah. This is pretty good.
-
God, this is so good. It'd be higher on the list if I'd beaten it, but I'm saving it for a good spot in my schedule where I can get it done and just immerse myself in it. Just swim in all that retro. The soundtrack is especially amazing.
-
This is a really fun game they've put together, and it came out of essentially nowhere! And I got it for "free", which is the only way I would have tried it, and now I'm an absolute believer. Best Scoring Experience.

Fun times wrecking friends in Tetris modes, fun times wrecking friends in Puyo Puyo modes. Yeah. It's best on a home console, but I enjoyed it on my Vita as well. Shame you have to import it to play it.
