Two of them were the same game, Persona 5.
Just a guess here, but even with the ability to speed through the dialogue on your second playthrough, that has to be at least 150 hours for the two playthroughs. Definitely counts as a heck of a feat in my book.
On my second playthrough, I tried to complete my compendium as much as possible I'm still missing a couple treasure demons. I got all of the rest.
It was between 160 and 180 hours combined for the two playthroughs.
My first playthrough was 101 hours.
SUPER MARIO MAKER LEVELS:
- SMB Mix-Up! (1AB2-0000-0047-5A7D)
- Storm the Castle (77BD-0000-00E0-A9C0)
Super Mario Sunshine is complete. Hmmm. Nostalgia can be powerful. I think I accepted more of its flaws back in the day because it was only the second 3-D Mario. Now, it's flaws are much more obvious. The camera is crappy, Mario's movements are imprecise and some of the design choices are weird. I don't mind a challenge but some of these were just infuriating. Who the hell decided it was a good idea to use Y to bang on the fencing when climbing vertically, but Y makes you drop when hanging from same fencing?
Sunshine did look good on my hdtv, though the cutscenes were crappy. I finished with exactly 64 shines. Doubtful that I'll 100% but would love to get around 100.
Foolz, what did you think of Pikmin 3?

It was great. Except for the textures which were just about bearable on the GamePad's screen, but made the game literally unplayable on anything bigger. 
Everything was super cute, they managed to make the relatively small levels have a great sense of discovery, and the touch controls worked really well except that you had to lock on to use charge; managing different Pikmin types and multiple objectives at once in the constraints of the time limit made for a surprisingly engaging and satisfying RTS. I'm now playing through the extra missions, but they make me wish the new Pikmin types were in the main campaign.
^ this was your first Pikmin game, right?
Also, I've been playing nothing. I haven't had access to the living room for over a week as my wife is sewing her own dress for our wedding. I could play Switch, but there's currently little that interests me. Also also: we are getting wed in 2 weeks.
The first one I've played in full. I borrowed the original and possibly its sequel, but never actually bought either of them as I thought the whole timer thing would be too stressful. You're remarrying your own wife?!
Congratulations on the marriage.

We're not married. We'll be marrying on the 10th anniversary of our engagement.

Thanks!

Thanks. And thanks to Corona, we'll probably be marrying twice, or at least in two fases. This will be a smaller scale thing due to restrictions. We'll throw a large party once the new normal is the old normal again.

Congrats! I also had a two part wedding. Being an international couple, we had one get together in Canada, one in the US.

Tell me to get back to rewriting this site so it's not horrible on mobileI also moved onto Skyrim and played through that. I put in a lot of hours overall, but the main quest is SHORT. The difficulty curve is weirdly spiky. Trying to play as a magic user early is incredibly ineffective, but illusion magic becomes absurd later on. Skyrim also seems a lot more glitchy.
Both end up feeling like they're just not quite putting everything together. That with the right adjustments it could be masterful, but instead it's just generally an enjoyable escape.

Well, by being wrong, I was ultimately right.
More importantly, congratulations! 
I just finished Super Mario Galaxy. I'm not sure what else I can say about this game after all these years. It has so many of my personal favorites in the series. My favorite boss battles, favorite levels, favorite move sets. I know more people prefer Galaxy 2, but this is my absolute favorite Mario of all time.

Excuse me what new pikmin types?
