@itsnitro cough cough SNES Classic Edition

They seem to be actually accessable suggesting Nintendo got their heads out of their asses and figured to put out more than 20.

@livefastcyyoung Yes, so pick whatever game you want. Here's some guidelines: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/13230/retropie-gotm-rules/1

I'm picking Metroid for NES for February. With it being a shorter month, I didn't want to go back to back with the RPGs.

I've also personally never beaten Metroid so this will be a fun one for me. It's available on the NES Classic too so most everyone can join.

For Achievement of the Month, let's go with It's a Girl! (Complete the game in under 5 hours.) If anyone has a suggestion for a different achievement for the Achievement of the Month, please suggest it. I've never beaten it so I have no idea if 5 hours is too easy or too hard.

If you want to make the thread lilbud, please go ahead. You've got all the formatting under control. :)

@livefastcyyoung I'll handle the thread and art tomorrow seeing as I got a half day.

I will also not be participating this month considering I already beat Metroid in its superior GBA form. Not going back to the original cause the port has a whole lot of quality improvements such as saving.
