Well, I'm having a sucky enough time to not be able to check rn.
Someone hacked my discord, and as a result got EVERYTHING and I've been changing it.
But I still dunno if I'm safe.

@Yousef-
It's a whole mess.
Someone I tested games for got hacked, asked for me on the server, then in DMs, asked me to help test a game of a friend of his.
I failed to notice it was his friend's game, or at least nothing was out of the ordinary for him.

End result, I saw a message from my antivirus that the app was trying to hijack Microsoft Edge, and I was removed.

I've changed a vast number of passwords multiple times, cause apparently he could see anything I did on my computer. I only got a phone relatively recently, so I'm not used to 2fa at all. Meaning the hacker used it to lock me out of both account and support.

Yousef-

@Mariotag if it’s someone you barely know then it sounds like a pretty classic discord scam
Sorry to hear
I hope you get your account back

@Yousef- I'd been testing stuff for him a bit over a year. It's insane.

At the repair place, I was able to point out the offending file.

Yousef-

@Mariotag nice! Any good news lately?

@Yousef- Just mostly recovery.

Some friends truly do show they care.
It's kinda funny. Some say online friendships are transient, but if you meet the right ppl, you'd be pleasantly surprised.
For gaming, been at DQ 3 HD-2D, and Graces F.

Preach!! Online friendships aren’t all doom n gloom, I always believed that to be nonsense.

Nice games you got, how far are you in both? :]

@Yousef- DQ3, I think I'm at the final dungeon. At the very least, endgame.

Graces F, I have my plat, it's a second run on chaos mode, and I'm in post game. Doing stage 5 of Zhonecage next.

Also trying to do some other games, like FF7R(ebirth), and Kirby Super Star Ultra.

@Sunsy It snowed a bit in my area, too. It wasn't too snowy, but it was definitely there. Weather can be funny at times, lol. Thanks, I actually have some nostalgia for NES Pinball. My grandmother used to have that at her house, alongside other NES games like Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt. I think I had that as a set of e-Reader cards, too... I also had Donkey Kong and Donkey Kong Jr. as e-Reader cards.
Yeah, same here. This is why I said "I could be wrong." If there's a Nintendo Direct coming soon, great. Otherwise, no big deal. I would certainly like to see what they'll be making, but I always let them take their time, lol.

Yeah exactly! I love getting exclusive stuff and souvenirs when I travel in general, too. It's also a good way to remember your trip, alongside taking pictures and videos. Gotcha, shows tend to be like 20 minutes long I think, though it depends on the series in question.

Oh that's cool, yeah once you get the feel for these characters, it does make things easier. I just don't have the patience to learn fighting games though, lol. I'm decent at Smash Bros., but that's really it. Yeah definitely, I like NSO, but I kinda wish I'd own at least my favorites on Switch. It's cool having all those Mega Man games at least.

Gotcha, thanks for telling me. I never read those Sonic comics. That's awesome, stuff like this is worth remembering for sure... glad to hear you got a picture with Poppy.

I sometimes do Time Trials in Mario Kart, I've done a few tracks in Mario Kart World's Time Trials mode already. I used to play that mode to just drive around tracks when I was a kid.

I wouldn't mind trying it out if it does come out on Nintendo Classics. Oh nice, looks like your aunt kind of knows about that game, haha.

I know you're on a break so I'll leave this here for when you get back.

Now spring is finally here. Went for a nice walk yesterday in the good weather. That's nice. I should give it a try, I do like pinball video games (Nintendo, release Pokemon Pinball and Kirby Pinball Land to Nintendo Classics... you cowards. ). Nice, I think I also had Ice Climber and the included Donkey Kong Jr one, and some of the Animal Crossing cards.

Indeed, much better than the people who say a Direct is going to happen, and then, it doesn't. Another thing that tires me from Nintendo YouTubers, all the Direct predictions. I miss when people talked about games they were playing.

Yeah, that's why if I ever go to Nintendo NYC, I wouldn't buy games, I can get those anywhere. I can even get eShop cards within walking distance of my home (I did this to buy Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope during the Mario Day sale, just saving it to play on my birthday this year, but I got the game. ) I would love to get something Peach related at the store.

Indeed, with Tuff E Nuff, I know all of Kotono's moves. So I stick to playing her. Smash Bros is just a fun fighting game.

No problem, yeah they been adding Tangle and Whisper to some Sonic games, Crossworlds and I think they made it to Sonic Rumble. I'm never forgetting the day I met Poppy. Oh you're going to have fun meeting Nintendo characters at Universal.

I'm glad I'm not alone in driving around tracks in time trial mode.

Haha, I'd say it was a fun coincidence the cookies looked like the checkered ones from Yoshi Cookie.

"I did this to buy Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope during the Mario Day sale, just saving it to play on my birthday this year, but I got the game."

Oh my gosh gosh gosh, I'm not gonna spoil anything, but you are going to have a blast with Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope. In my opinion, it's the most underrated Mario game. Just let me check my list of favorite games in their order for a second...

As of right now, it's my #10 most favorite game of all time, and it beats out almost every other Mario game I currently have, with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe being the only exception, it's just that good. As a matter of fact, it would've been my favorite game of 2022 if Pokémon Violet hadn't come out in the exact same year 😅. If you don't mind, I would like to hear your thoughts on Sparks of Hope when you're done with it! ☺️

My top 5 favorite games:
1: Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth1
2: Pokémon Violet
3: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
4: The Legend of Zelda Link's Awakening (2019)
5: Animal Crossing New Horizons

@Nep-Nep-Freak Glad to hear something good about the game. Only a bit longer until my birthday, which is next Tuesday.

I bought it because I wanted something new to play on my birthday, and been eyeing it for some time being into turn based tactics. The Mario Day sale just had a really good deal on the game, so I walked to my local Wawa and got myself an eShop card to get it before the sale ended.

@Mariotag Thank you, even though it isn't until Tuesday. Looking forward to the day.
