I would have first played the arcade version of Strider when I was about 8 or 9 years around the late 90's. I remember the pixel art being very good and really liking Strider as a character. I wouldnt actually replay the game until I would be gifted a Final Fight arcade 1Up machine. One of the games...

I actually played very few 2023 games this year.

Metroid Prime Remaster and Super Mario RPG were real treats but to say they "truely" came out this year wouldnt really be fair.

3) Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
2) Fire Emblem: Engage
1) Super Mario Bros. Wonder
