My biggest games writing tip is to be a little bit flippantly dismissive of your subject. Ignore proper nouns and intentionally explain it like you're a 90s news columnist begrudgingly reporting on the field. "A stout moustachioed worker is hopping around the zones." It's both snappier and funnier.

Jet Force Gemini was one of those games I always wanted to play as a kid but didn't know how to get my hands on it. No idea what kind of game it was. Just looked cool

Many games for the GameCube use only a fraction of the storage capacity of the disc. I have analyzed the data to determine what the maximum number of retail Mario games that can fit on a single disc would be, creating the Luigi & Wario + Puzzle + Rhythm Maximum Value Pack.

A GameCube disc has a storage capacity of 1.46 gigabytes. Many Mario games use only a fraction of that storage. Below is the optimal distribution of the smallest Mario-related games on the system to fit 6 entire retail games on a single disc.
Unused space 54 MB
Luigi's Mansion 186 MB
DDR Mario Mix 264 MB
Wario World 257 MB
Donkey Konga 2 312 MB
Donkey Konga 250 MB
Please note that this pie chart is for data visualization only. If the games were in fact put on one disc, the data would be arranged in rings, not in slices.
