Oh yeah my NNID is Groosin. I plan on adding you when I get off work. Only game we share right now is Tekken since the others excluding Monster Hunter I have on different systems.
I've been thinking about getting Monster Hunter though. I'm surprised I haven't already since I've never given the series a try yet. Also I'll definitely be getting Mario Kart 8 and obviously both versions of Smash.
Ooh a Smash 3DS would be awesome! If that's released I'll probably fibd myself wishing I didn't already have one lol...
And yeah Shantae is definitely worth the four or five bucks I think it costs on the VC. I could even go as far as to say it's my favorite GBC game. The original sells on eBay for hundreds of dollars but even though I have the VC version too I just can't let it go.
Oh sorry didn't notice your message on my profile. She's Shantae, from an indie game of the same name originally created in the last moments of GBC and miraculously was revived around eight years later in Risky's Revenge, the DSiWare sequel. Now there's a third sequel being released on 3DS in only months from now and a fourth sequel already in progress for the consoles. The GBC game was recently re-released on the 3DS Virtual Console, meaning that when the third one is release I'll be able to have all three handheld games on the same system! Woo!
Gintoki is my favorite despite he being the main character
(and the whole yorozuya for that matter)
Madao is far up there too. Everything that happens to him is just hilarious; same with Katsura
Hijikata and Sougo is also pretty high up there
Also, I like Tama a lot for some reason maybe it's the video game references.
In a top 5 list, it would be Gintoki, Hijikata, Madao, Kagura, and Sougo
