Suggested by Sonic Mint is a strong fighter and she has some good projectile skills but ultimately she’s not beating Urbosa. Urbosa has better physical strength and durability. She would be able to block Mint’s attacks and land crushing counter blows. Mint’s durability isn’t great so one or two direct shots would be the end for her. Mint just isn’t keeping up with a top tier fighter like Urbosa for very long. Urbosa wins.

Zeo vs Ray


Suggested by Sonic Zeo was one of the strongest Bladers back in his day but he just didn’t stick around and as a result got lost in the power creep. Ray was able to nearly take Kai down in one of the most intense battles in the series. There just isn’t much that Zeo would really be able to do against a fighter like that. Zeo loses in raw strength at this point which was always his strongest advantage. Throw in that Ray has more experience as well and then it’s definitely a wrap. Ray wins.
Taek Jegal vs Sujin Lee


Suggested by Sonic Taek Jegal was a really powerful fighter and he certainly showed us just how strong the world of GOH would ultimately become. That being said, Sujin Lee is considerably more powerful. Yes she definitely went way downhill towards the end of the series but the key thing is that she was around to the end and got a lot of power ups. At this point Taek wouldn’t even be able to react to her blows, let alone fight her on even ground. Sujin Lee is just in a different world of power. Sujin Lee wins.
Daichi vs Hiro


Suggested by Sonic This is actually a fairly close fight. Daichi has gone up against some of the best bladers in the world and kept going while Hiro ended up becoming a coach. Hiro still has his skills though and he has a ton of experience as well. You get the feeling that he wouldn’t have gotten disrespected in some of the matches the way that Daichi did. Ultimately I see him being able to pull out the win here and he will be able to prove that he still has the skills. It would be a close battle though. Hiro wins.
Black Manta vs Mr Incredible


Suggested by Destroyer Mr Incredible has super strength and I don’t want to underestimate that but it won’t be enough against Black Manta. Black Manta’s laser blasts would easily overwhelm Mr Incredible. His strength just isn’t enough to handle such a varied onslaught of attacks and Incredible’s lack of super speed will cost him here. Pure strength without anything else to back it up just isn’t enough to win a fight like this. Black Manta wins.
Pac Man vs Mad Hatter

![]()
Suggested by Destroyer The Mad Hatter is a true trickster but he’s not going to be doing much against Pac Man. Pac Man can chomp the guy up while in his large form or just overwhelm him with pure projectiles. Mad Hatter doesn’t have any attacks that can break through Pac Man’s abilities either which puts him at even more of a disadvantage. After a point there just isn’t much you can do against that kind of power. Pac Man wins.
Pac Man vs Captain Boomerang


Suggested by Destroyer Captain Boomerang is a very resourceful fighter who is always ready to mix things up. It’s hard to get close to him when he’s always throwing his weapons but Pac Man should still have the edge here due to his resourcefulness. He has a ton of different elemental modes and super forms which will pave the way for victory. Boomerang doesn’t have the durability needed to stand up to that. Pac Man wins.
Gigan vs Sam Witwicky


Suggested by Destroyer Gigan is a powerful Kaiju with incredible laser blasts and a whole lot of physical power. As quick on his feet as Sam is, I don’t see him being able to do much. Gigan is an opponent that is just completely out of his league and I haven’t even mentioned how Gigan can teleport yet. That in itself is a game changer and not something that Sam will be able to overcome. Gigan wins.
2022 Sony Recap
Time for the big Sony recap!

Honestly 8 Platinums in a year is pretty good. I think these numbers especially got better towards the end of the year when I was really going at it. Always feels good getting more trophies.

Around 300 hours is pretty good on the PS4. Apparently my favorite genre is Platformer based on our games and we got quite a few of those that’s for sure. Platformers are timeless after all.

Multiversus has really withstood the test of time. Keeping the characters locked behind currency is a good way to keep people playing and the fact that you can earn it in game is pretty cool. Having Sonic Forces and Sonic Frontiers there is great though. Goes to show that Sonic is still an absolutely legendary series!
Not too much stats in the Sony recap but it was still pretty fun to see.
Nintendo Switch 2022 Year in Review

It’s always nice to see recaps at the end of the year to see how the console experience went. It’s no surprise to see Fortnite and Tetris 99 up at the top. Those two games are really timeless. Tetris captures the classic free to play model where the game has a ton of replay value and you can just keep on playing it over and over. Then Fortnite always has massive updates and is still the definitive online shooter game. The Switch Online service has a ton of games too so I suppose they all just really added up.
Jan – Paper Mario
Feb – Xenoblade Chronicles 2
Mar- Kirby
Jun – SNES Online
Jul – Tetris
Aug – Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic
Oct – NES Online
Nov – Fortnite
I didn’t take snapshots of each month. Some months were missing so does that mean the Switch wasn’t turned on at all for April and May? I dunno about this but it’s better to have some stats than none I suppose. It’s fun to get the breakdown of different games here. Xenoblade Chronicles 2 brings back memories, the greatest RPG of all time and it completely changed the way that I viewed the gaming industry in general. Most impressive I gotta say.

I’m not sure how they really calculated this. Wouldn’t Fortnite be Multiplayer so that would be more like 70%? Or online shooters? I was a little suspect about this stat in particular is all I’m saying. Pretty fun to see the breakdown though. Hope they keep doing this and we’ll see how things changed next year in comparison. I always like seeing some quick stats like this.
