My 2025 Game of the Year

2025 was a year that saw me try out quite a few more games than most, but didn't result in as many finished games. I suppose that's not the biggest problem in the world, though.

With a modded 3DS, Vita and (as of 2025) Wii U I've been able to try out a lot of different games without worrying about spending too much money.

As an aside, having these modded systems has been a real gamechanger in my gaming habits. It's given me the opportunity to try out a lot of games that I've missed out on in the past.

Before getting to my list, I did want to list off a few games that I did put a significant amount of time into but for one reason or another I didn't finish or don't feel compelled to add to this list. They are:

• The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

• Super Mario RPG

• Super Metroid

• Metroid Dread

• Monster Hunter Generations

• Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology

• Resident Evil Revelations

Anyways, on with the list.
