It’s weird how many times I proofread this post and still missed these typos. Also in the SotN section, I called it “Dracula III” rather than Castlevania Iii (Dracula’s Curse). Oops.

Definitely. Each handheld game is unique and tries something new, but at that point you’re balancing the pros and cons of each distinct feature rather than saying “this is obviously the worst in the series” or “this is obviously the best in the series” since they all get the basics right. While I wouldn’t say “they’re all the same” since they each try something new, I also can’t provide any specifics that would inform a newcomer to “focus on this one” or “stay away from that one”. It’s just down to preference at that point. On the other hand, I can confidently say “you can skip the Game Boy games” and not feel bad about it.

Thanks, fixed it!
