Several years before I started collecting heavily I sold a copy of Castlevania IV that I got from a childhood friend, who is still a very close friend and now a collector too. It would have been great to give him that copy back as it was his original that his grandmother bought him.
I've followed the art of Bill Mudron for a while now. He has created some of the most beautiful art maps on video games that I've ever seen. I've always wanted to buy a print but everytime I've checked his site they were sold out. I guess he only does the prints once a year or something. Anyway I happened to check today and he has a bunch in stock!!! I order the Castlevania Map & my brother ordered one of his Zelda Maps. Here's some close up images from his work & I'm linking his site here in case anyone is interested. Heck it's worth just looking at all the game art there.

Sad to say since I'm such a die hard Castlevania fan. But I've never actually beaten the original NES Castlvania. Over 30 years since that game came out and I've only gotten to Dracula a hand full of times with no sucess
Gameplay looks good. Been a while since we've seen a AAA SWs game that's solo play only with a full on story. I'm hoping for a Black Friday/Cyber Monday deal on it.
First series that comes to mind would be Legacy of Kain/Soul Reaver. There was another game coming about 7-8 years ago which was cancelled. It was nearly finished too. A former dev uploaded video of it:
Currently Link's Awakening on Switch, along with Last of Us Remastered PS4 & Gauntlet PS4 as well. Been playing SW Battlefront II at lot lately with all the updates and I'm looking forward to Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order here in a few weeks!
Ya it's a shame what happened with Mighty No. 9. I didn't back that one but I did back an MMO in 2013 on kickstarter, Camelot Unchained, which has yet to come out. The more time passes the less interested I've become in that game and I was really excited for it too.
PC Engine/TurboGrafx & Famicom have always struck my interest. Woulda been cool to go for full sets years ago. Now days I'd buy only what i'd play from those libraries because of price and space.
