Realm of Memories: A smashing hatred

I hated Link. Every time I heard or said his name, it was like poison was oozing from my mouth. I could see in my heart of hearts why Ganondorf wanted to kill him. Now, I understand that you might wonder: “Why would you hate Link?” The answer to that question is very simple and…

Realm of Memories: Becoming the Hero of the Wild

I love the Super Smash Bros. games — a lot. You could say I’m something of a fanatic. In particular, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate takes the prize as my favorite multiplayer game of all time, attested to by the insane number of hours I’ve logged since its release in December 2018 (I’ll give you a…
