Minecraft. I have no way to pay the way it's asking me. It's not that I'm poor or nothing.

Also Team Fortress 2, on a normal server it goes at about 9 frames a second and on a practice one with bots it only lags a little bit but I still need a better computer.

Well, there are certain -ahem- free methods to obtain Minecraft. Not that I know anything about that. -shifty eyes-

Kirby 64, due to some massive nostalgia. I could just borrow my friend's Wii, but I want to play my file because I want to complete my card collection.

The Neverhood. The game is rare as Missingno on eBay, and the copies that do exist are expensive as heck, and the only other friend that owns it lives across the pond. Wanting an obscure game sure does suck!

Except for the Wii stuff? Nothing.

Thanks to my newly upgraded desktop, I can play pretty much anything, Crysis included. Just made an order for the Sup Com GOTY edition which includes Forged Alliance, Company of Heroes Gold Edition, which also has Opposing Fronts, and World in Conflict: Soviet Assault.

It's gonna be some good times once they arrive man, good times...

  • Any of the Super Robot Wars titles for the PS 2. I can't find them anymore in my usual haunts.
  • Prototype, because I've yet to get a processor powerful enough for it. My video card can handle it though.

Still finishing: a whole lot of shows from Fall 2013 and Winter 2014.

Deathsmiles and Mushimesama Futari, both. Which I'll need two good XBO X360s just to play, considering the darn thing isn't all region.

Technically, I can play Mushihimesama the original for Play Station 2 right now, even though I don't have a working Japanese Play Station 2. But it frequently drops to 30 fps and that loses a lot of the challenge and beautiful music.

Genkidama for Japan, even if you don't have money, you can help![1]

The Disgaea series. I run an Xbox, so no Disgaea for me. Also, a few of the Harvest Moon series as well.

If you have an American 360, you should be able to play both (DS is NA region, Futari has no Region Coding).

Can't play Earthbound, since finding it at a reasonable price is like trying to find a reason to play Superman64. And I'm not big on emulation of console games.

Metal Gear Solid 4 is unplayable due to not owning a PS 3.

I can't stay at a PC long enough to play Sam And Max: The Devil's Playhouse, and I'm unsure if the thing could play it, anyway. So I'm stuck until Telltale releases it onto Wii (if they do).

^^ IIRC, JSRF was localized.

The following is the game that I want to play most, but can't thanks to not owning any compatible console hardware (and being too lazy to get an emulator working properly):

Oh, how I wish spring would come already so I can get my RSG on.

...as to why I'm looking forward to RSG when chaining and survival do go hand in hand (unlike in Ikaruga, where "you can hold on the fire button, you can hold on the fire button in the exact order Treasure wants you to, or you can not hold on the fire button") is beyond me. Maybe because of hype?

Earthbound and MGS 4 for the usual reasons. Also, my Generation II Pokemon games can no longer retain save files (okay, I could always get the remakes, but still).

Every game that interests me that I can't own. Persona 4 probably being at the top of the list.
