this thread reminded me of a couple of games id had previously forgotten about, had a whole ton of games on several burnt bootleg discs that my dad.... acquired.... for me somehow.... looking back at old games i always remember em looking better than they actually did but boy am i always wrong

and yet i used to love this game
one thing that always confused me is that it seemed to end really abruptly? has anyone else played it and remember how it ends? because for me it always ended after this one massive battle in the school where all the students are involved, an FMV plays and feels like it cuts suddenly and then the credits roll

another one i remember loving is called Barbie Fashion Show i believe?
but this one aged fairly well, maybe its cause shes already a plastic doll to begin with

Holy fuck I thought I was the only person in the whole world who grew up playing the Petz games. The Scottish Folds and Maine Coons were my favourites.

I'm willing to guess you abused the Chinchilla Persian at one point too, right? For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about, just take a look at this clip it's amazing.

You certainly were not, I played the shit out of the Petz games.

And yes, I would abuse some of the guest cats and dogs. My preferred method was dangling them in the air.

I'd say virtual pets count as "girly games" and I loved those things as a young teen.

My mom got me two GigaPets way back in the late 90's, one was the Compu Kitty (which I think was one of the first ones), and later a 4-in-1 Rugrats one. I was super irritated I couldn't properly take care of them, but I was luckier than many of my classmates. I got mine as a Christmas present in 1997, which was months after their initial release which made me very late compared to pretty much everyone I knew. But that meant I knew not to take it to school because it'd get confiscated. And there were a great many unhappy kids (and parents) when the school went back on their promise to give them back at the end of the year. They used "well your kid shouldn't have had them here in the first place" as an excuse. Personally I believe they let the teachers take home whatever they wanted to their kids and tossed whatever was left over.
 
Oh gosh, interesting selections here. I'll add:
- Barbie & her Magical house PC
- Rune Factory series
- Dreaming Mary (Starts off as girly but has a creepy twist)
- The Sailor Moon games for Sega Genesis and SNES
- Puyo Puyo

Also really enjoy titles already mentioned like the Harvest Moon series (Until the switch games RIP, with the exception of Mineral Town remake), Animal Crossing, Monster Rancher and Uta no prince sama.

Anyone here planning to play Rune factory 5 once it comes out in english? A lot of times with games like these I already know which guy I'll end up dating in advance but here I'm pretty stumped. Guess I'll have to actually consider their personalities too this time.

Definitely. Apparently it has frame rate issues and stuff but that isn't new, Rune Factory is basically my ideal game.

Don't judge me. (:_(

I'm not sure if I will, to be honest. I have the third and fourth games, but nothing in the new one (at least from the trailers) really appeals to me. Maybe if it goes on sale I'll pick it up, but for now probably not.

Isn't Style Savvy on the 3DS supposed to be good?

I've heard good things about it, but I'm more looking for a phone app (although if a 3DS emulator for Android phones exist I'm not opposed to the idea). I just don't want to bring my 3DS with me to work because the next bullshit complaint from a certain bitchy coworker will be that I'm hiding in the break room playing video games instead of working.

Nope, sadly, the only 3DS emulator out there is PC only. https://yuzu-emu.org/downloads/

The first Style Savvy was on the DS, and that has an emulator on Android, DraStic, though emulators on phones without proper buttons are never a good way to play a game.

Unless you have a phone with a stylus, and Style Savvy is entirely played with one. That might work.

I do have a phone with a stylus actually, so maybe I'll look into that. It wouldn't be the most discrete thing, but more so than my 3DS. Thank you!
