Last month, Disney Channel star Peyton List and her twin brother, The Thinning actor Spencer List, hosted a star-studded event in celebration of the launch of Nintendo's Kirby: Planet Robobot (which we adore, btw).

Sweety High: Which Nintendo games do you plan to play nonstop this summer?

Spencer List: Of course Kirby: Planet Robobot. The new mech that makes you feel like Donkey Kong in a Kirby game. It's really magical.

I might restart Pokémon Omega Ruby and beat it for the fifth time. The thing I love about Pokémon is that you are always striving to be the best in any game you play, and I have that competitive nature that makes me always want to be the No. 1 person in the game.

The new Mario & Sonic game looks really cool, too. I love the Olympic Games and I'm competitive so I won't be able to quit playing this game.

Super Smash Bros. is one of my personal favorites. Anything that has my favorite Nintendo characters in one game is definitely a must. I also love memorizing all the new moves for each character and feeling like I can destroy anyone.

And last but not least, I've also been playing Animal Crossing: New Leaf, throwing it back a little bit. This game is one of my favorites because you want to have the best house and property. Again, it's about striving to be the very best.

SH: What did you love most about the launch event?

SL: I really enjoyed watching the kids light up when they played the game for the first time on the 3DS. Also my little brother and I got to run the trivia contest and give out crazy gifts to all the winners.

Peyton List: The decor was darling. I loved the pink beanbags we sat in while we were playing. Also the pink-palette candy bar was great.

SH: And Spencer, who did you say your animated celebrity crush was, again?

SL: Probably Princess Peach!
