2005, Animal Crossing: Wild World, video game, Nintendo DS Lite, Nintendo ★ Also one of the first games I ever played and one I devoted a lot of my time to. Although this appears to be an aimless game I really enjoy free play and simulation games, this paired with the adorable graphics I would spend hours on this game. ★ Nintendo, Animal Crossing: Wild World cover, Animal Crossing Wiki, viewed 11 March 2020, https://animalcrossing.fandom.com/wiki/Animal_Crossing:_Wild_World

2005, Nintendogs, video game, Nintendo DS Lite, Nintendo ★ Nintendogs was one of the first games I had ever played and loved and was so special to me as it was the closest thing to having a pet dog as possible. Although virtual, I loved and cared for my dogs, always remembering to feed, bathe and walk them, feeling so guilty if I ever forgot. ★ Nintendo, Nintendogs: Dachshund & Friends cover, Nintendogs Wikia, viewed 11 March 2020, https://nintendogs.fandom.com/wiki/Nintendogs

2008, Animal Crossing: City Folk, video game, Nintendo Wii, Nintendo ★ As I had loved the previous Animal Crossing title I decided to try out the Wii title; I was instantly hooked.

2008, Mario Kart Wii, video game, Nintendo Wii, Nintendo ★ Easily one my favourite games of all time for too many reasons to count; no matter how many times you complete the courses they never get old, playing alone is just as fun as playing with others, the hands on controls provides the thrilling feeling of actually driving. ★ Nintendo, Mario Kart Wii cover, Super Mario Wiki, viewed 12 March 2020, https://www.mariowiki.com/Mario_Kart_Wii

2009, New Super Mario Bros. Wii, video game, Nintendo Wii, Nintendo ★ As I had enjoyed the DS title so much, I had high hopes for this title. This game is both so similar and so different to the previous title, more features while keeping so many iconic elements. I've lost count of how many times I've completed this game and restarted again. ★ Nintendo, New Super Mario Bros.

2013, Animal Crossing: New Leaf, video game, Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo ★ Looking as though it was going to be a huge improvement from the last title I had never been so excited for a game release. With the classic elements of an Animal Crossing game plus so much more this will always be one of my favourite titles one I really could play forever. ★ Nintendo, Animal Crossing: New Leaf cover, Animal Crossing Wiki, viewed 11 March 2020, https://animalcrossing.fandom.com/wiki/Animal_Crossing:_New_Leaf

2017, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, video game, iOS device, Tencent Games ★ Prior to PUBG I had never really played point and shoot games but I downloaded PUBG for my friend, a dedicated PUBG player, who wanted to play with me despite me saying I probably won't enjoy it. It quickly became clear that I was wrong as I still find time to play this game often ★ Tencent Games, PUBG logo, DMM Games, viewed 11 March 2020, http://www.dmm.com/netgame/top/guide/playerguide_html/=/ch_navi=/

2017, Minecraft, video game, Nintendo Switch, Mojang ★ Despite having only playing this game recently, it quickly became a favourite. Similar to Animal Crossing, I really enjoy the free play genre of this game as well as the unique design style. Minecraft is simple but limitless; I could spend hours on this game, with friends or alone. ★ Mojang, Minecraft Switch Edition cover, Minecraft Wiki, viewed 11 March 2020, https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/File:Nintendo_Switch_Edition.png

2017, Fortnite, video, Nintendo Switch, Epic Games ★ Although Fortnite is a point and shoot game similar to PUBG there are so many unique features and elements to Fortnite that I disliked at first. After continuing to play this title with friends, it has quickly grown on me and rather than disliking the elements, I appreciate how they allow Fortnite to be a unique game. ★ Epic Games, Fortnite logo, Fortnite Wiki, viewed 11 March 2020, https://fortnite.fandom.com/wiki/Fortnite

2020, Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo ★ Animal Crossing only improves; new features, activities, items, scenery design and characters as well as what the player achieves. Being a dedicated player, I have anticipated this game since its announcement in 2018. I'm excited to devote all of my time to it. ★ Nintendo, Animal Crossing: New Horizons cover, Animal Crossing Wiki, viewed 11 March 2020, https://animalcrossing.fandom.com/wiki/Animal_Crossing:_New_Horizons
