Finally beat Candice, the 7th gym leader in Pokemon Perfect Platinum Challenge Edition. Three of her four creatures died extremely quickly but her Froslass is borderline impossible to hit. Her Abomasnow sets up Hail with its ability and Froslass feeds off it wit her ability to raise her evasion, then uses Double Team over and over to make it impossible to land a clean hit, so I lost a few times simply because I couldn't hit her, even with X Accuracy.

Then, the moment of destiny, where my Arcanine earned his keep once and for all by catching her with a well placed Fire Blast, killing the damn thing in one hit. BURN, YOU BITCH!

Of course all it earned me was the right to keep another pointless HM Whore around to use Rock Climb, and the chance to waste hours of my life taking out the latest in a long line of Team Rocket rip offs because Nintendo treats that idea like a fucking security blanket. Ironic that a series about growth and evolution hasn't changed in any significant way in over a decade.

..Kraid in Super Metroid. Great game, but I keep messing up the controls because my muscle memory is still programmed from Zero Mission.

I felt the same way, since my first Metroid game was Fusion (can't remember if I played Super or Zero Mission first after that). The controls and physics in Fusion and Zero Mission are a million times better than Super Metroid, and the inclusion of a run button in Super was such a mistake.

After doing some sidequests, collecting heart pieces, rupees and buying all of Ravio's items, I finally got back to the main storyline in A Link Between Worlds, and rescued three sages. Four to go :D

Edit: Also, bosses in this game are terribly easy lol

I'm revisiting F-zero GX story mode. I beat chapter 5 very hard yesterday and am now on chapter 7 (very hard).

I got to chapter 7 about 5 years ago and I just rage quit the game forever. Not this time though. I'll get it eventually.

A Link Between Worlds - CHECK!
The ending really brought a smile on my face. No matter how easy and short, story-wise this might be my favorite Zelda game. :D
A Link to the Past remains better to me.

I got the best ending in Way of the Samurai 3 recently. But aside from that I've just been playing Rocksmith 2014. Kind of annoyed right now because my usual guitar is damaged. The jack is loose so the cable wobbles, causing some signal loss. Thankfully I have two other guitars that work fine (well, mostly for one of them in dire need of some clean strings) so it's not a big deal. Minor damage, easily repaired as soon as I get my hands on a screwdriver.
