I played a lot of The Wild Thornberries GBA game. I never watched the movie, I didn't really even like the show, but it had a coloring mini game that I liked. Think you unlocked more coloring pages by playing it so I did.

Valhalla Knights: Eldar Saga on the Wii was an aggressively mid ARPG that looked like ass (courtesy of the Wii's limited hardware) and has some truly abysmal review scores, but I keep wanting to dust off Dolphin to give it another spin. Honorable mentions go out to Arc Rise Fantasia (another Wii JRPG) and maybe EverQuest: Champions of Norrath, which was a Diablo knockoff that Sony made for the PS2.

Oh shit, and the Rune Factory series, especially Frontier (again, on the Wii). Think Harvest Moon/Stardew Valley, but intensely weeb with dungeon crawling elements.

Have you played RF tide of destiny/Oceans? That one is my fav. Plays great on dolphin

Yes! I got it on PS4 way back when.

I was almost offended when you said Rune Factory Series but when you said Frontier I was like "Fair" I would've Accepted 1 and 2 as well.

Really anything but 4. Still one of my favorite farming games to this day.

Frontier scratches this weird itch where my terminal min-maxing tendencies kick in and I have to play the game with my laptop rigged up nearby with a spreadsheet for tracking and optimizing runey placement. It was a cool mechanic, but clunky as hell and quickly distracted from the rest of the game, particularly if you're the kind of sicko who should probably be more into EVE Online and/or Supermarket Simulator.

I just cheated to have max runeys in every area lol.

EQ Champions of Norrath was so much fun in couch coop in college.
