Discussion One Game Per Gaming Genre (no bundles)

[TreeSign]

You are able to build the console of your dreams but the only caveat is having only 1 game per genre what do you pick? Note: 2D and 3D versions of the same genre are counted separately.

As for me:

Turn Based RPG: Golden Sun Dark Dawn
3D Platformer: Mario Odyssey
2D Platformer: Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze
Rogue Like: Dark Cloud 2
Real Time Strategy: Command and Conquer Tiberian Dawn
Action RPG: Xenoblade Chronicles X
Sports: Mario Golf
Survival Horror: Resident Evil 4
Arena Shooter: Splatoon

Add more genres than that I listed if you so wish.
