@turtlelink: That's called "Christmas Creep"... Christmas stuff comes earlier and earlier each year... in some stores I've seen Christmas decorations eclipse Halloween... 0_o
Are we going to play it less now that we know that it won't have the same features as the WiiU?
If there were more games on the Wii U and Vita, I can assure you my 3DS would still be gathering dust like it did in 2011 and 2012.
Games sell systems, not features
Thank you for parroting a baseless slogan at an inappropriate time. What I'm saying is that yes, the 3DS has the games. But If I had a choice, I would rather game on a superior product, which the 3DS most definitely is not, at least at the moment.
I'm just going to say it:
Arguments like these detract from the kind of atmosphere this thread aims to foster. Specifically, this should be a safe place for users to vent a personal frustration...
Just when I thought it was gone, my depression is back... It has dawned on me that unless something drastic changes, I will end this year without having made any progress in my life whatsoever from last year.
I don't have a job, or a driver's license, have no idea on what plans for college I want to go with, if any at all, have no non-virtual friends and the only one I had left before has practically moved on with her own life and I almost never see her anymore, and because I've lived a mostly solitary life (at least among people my own age) I'm terrified to step out into the real world. Heck, I've already tried before and seemed like I was on track doing what I loved, only to be fired from it a month later, so now I have no clue what passion to follow. Not to mention at age 18 the time is fast approaching where I need to strike out on my own.
It's a clash of old comfortable habits against the nasty realities of the future, and I'm inexplicability caught between them...

@WingedSnagaret I totally know how you feel man. Around this time last year I was pretty sure I was going nowhere too. The worst thing though is that over this year I've found the degree I should stick to, got a job and passed my driving test and yet the feeling didn't get any better. In fact, I'm pretty sure at times it got worse. All that stuff felt important and when it came, it was just empty, y'know?
I don't really have much advice, I guess all I can say is that depression isn't tied to your lot in life. Perhaps a good thing to do is just to go outside more, attend events and do some volunteering, anything to get your hands and mind busy. As long as you're doing stuff, opportunities will come and find you.
always thought I'd change to Gyarados after I turned 20 but hey, this is more fitting I guess. (also somebody registered under the original Magikarp name and I can't get back to it anymore orz)
I actually love reading your odyssey Wave, you articulate pretty well and stay on a positive course.
TBH some of that might come with age (and experience). I'm sure you'll come back rocking even harder!
You weigh 120 lbs huh, I want to meet your little punk self, lol!
...Only weigh about 135 myself, even though I'm close to 6'.
It's still too early to start playing Christmas music.
It's already time for Christmas avatars!
Every year I tell myself I'd put effort into making an avatar, but then don't. Kinda like my resolve on Christmas trees, cards, lights and just about everything else.

bah, humbug
Speaking of which, shouldn't we have a yearly X-Mas Avi contest on the forums? Anyone interested in making it?
Anywho, the only disappointment is that I have done nothing substantially productive this weekend. That feeling you have when you knew you could'a whould'a should'a but didn't.
@brandonbwii I'm sorry Call Of Duty: Ghosts didn't meet your expectations. I'm sure the next game will turn out much better and that this one was just a minor misstep.
@Karakato Well that's rough. I hope your 3DS' wi-fi is (or was) fixed as soon as possible.
@Dark-Luigi That sounds like it was a hassle. I hope everything worked out and you got your report back.
@DreamyViridi Yeesh. That's just wrong. I hope you can pick yourself up from this.
@WingedSnagret "what good am I..." You're much better than you make yourself out to be. I'm sure you'll get a lucky break soon.
@Geno92 I know the feeling. I hope you survive this cold, man.
@Einherjar I usually stay away from the regular non-forum comments since it's generally a lot meaner than the forums. I think you should try that.
@mariobro4 Hang in there, man! Your coughing will go away eventually!
@WingedSnagret Listen, man. These are tough times. It's going to (if it hasn't already) feel like it'll never end, and being discouraged by all of it is not only normal, it's fine. But things can and will change. No matter what happens, just remember: The darkest hour is just before the dawn.
@ravens326 Aw, man! That's just terrible! I hope your town recovers.
@Miss_Dark That sounds stressful, but I'm sure that, if you put your mind to it, you'll make it.
@Karakato Hey, we all have off-weeks. If there're some things you regret, just try your best to learn from them. There's no telling what this week will bring. It could be one of the most productive weeks of your natural life for all we know, so don't get too discouraged.

My Wii U Gamepad still hasn't arrived back from Nintendo repair services even though an e-mail was sent on Thursday confirming that the repairs were complete.
I'll see you here this weekend commenting on some launch problem
Well weekend is over and not to many launch problems. The worst I had so far is just a couple of system freezes but that was easy fixed by unplugging the system.

@CanisWolfred Which one is it? I'm fairly knowledgeable in JRPGs; I can certainly help you find what you are looking for.
I don't need help with the games, but I was just looking for videos of several SMT games, Xenoblade, and Skies of Arcadia to show off their gameplay, and most weren't what I was looking for. For SMT they were all overleveled parties one-shotting monsters, or early parties from people who don't know how to play the game. For Skies of Arcadia, it was usually late-in videoes from people making an effort to show off...how overpowered they were. Using hacks. But still didn't know how to play the game properly. For Xenoblade forget it. I tyried 8 different videos and most were just god awful as videos. Some were poor quality, some were poorly editted montages, some had people talking stupid stuff over it. I had to give up after that...
At least I was able to find a decent Dragon Quest and Grandia videos with some effort.
Anybody know how to deal with lowlifes on ebay who buy your items, but don't pay you after you send it to them?
I've been trying to get payment from this kid (I can tell by how horribly they type) since April! He claims his sister "accidently bidded on my items" and he never wanted them in the first place. We eventually came to an agreement that he'd send me the full payment later. Months later after sending him messages with consistent reminders of what he owed me, nothing. He thinks ignoring the problem will make it go away. Ebay couldn't help, because for some reason not having a tracking number on the item's package automatically strips me of any rights, despite the obvious immoral act the seller pulled. He owes me $66.
I also got ripped off by a buyer in Puerto Rico who bought a couple 3DS games from me, after I sent them he took his money back off my PayPal claiming he never got them! Again ebay can't do anything about it, because the tracking number is apparently the only thing I can stand by. Don't even ask the buyer if they really didn't get it why don't you? He owes me about $52.
So in total I've lost around $118 worth of stuff to spinless buyers. I hate ebay. Never selling on there again...
I think I might be falling into depression, and I'm too scared to tell my parents about it, 'cause knowing them they'll just brush it off until it becomes an issue causing problems for them, and even then they might not help very much. Thing is, I've just been feeling more and more tired, and way worse over time across the last few months. No matter what I do I just keep feeling like things keep getting worse. And those moments I really feel something only last for a bit- each time I feel something, I hope I can just return to normal, and I haven't. It's stopping me from progressing with, really, anything. I just feel kind of empty of feelings, like I'm sepearated from them, and I can't really think normally... I don't know why, but I wanted to share that here, I guess it's because of the last page... I hope Wreck-It Ralph can make me feel better because it always inspired me but eh... Also I haven't been keeping my back posture very good at all and it's awful and I

I'm going to draw mine this year! Although I don't know what to draw for it...
first thing you have to is stop i mean STOP thinking the way you have been no sad "i wont be able to do this" or " my life just sucks cuz i can do..." what you should be thinking is the present like what you are doing right now at this hour and how can you make it fun or at least less boring that is all no past thoughts then slowly start doing something new like even going to a new coffee store or new game etc hanging out with school buddies the more you do that the better for you just keep busy
as you go on later try to get your things together cuz you cant quit now and continue living that life if your not here no more then think of all the fun stuff you will miss out? the movies the games etc stuff you like more fun less "my life sucks" thoughs
