The last piece is here! My new keyboard came in the mail today. A real nice mechanical keyboard. Man, I know I am old fashioned. Everyone these days is moving toward these tiny little membrane keyboards with no play on the keys, or even just... touchscreen keyboards on tablet PCs. No thank you! Give me my buttons! I like my controllers and keyboards! Call me old fashioned all you want, I like buttons and analogue sticks!

@Tyranexx 15,134 as of typing this. And yes, I have it set to rotate every minute. I just save anything I like into my wallpaper folder. Mostly anime girls, sci-fi stuff and the occasional meme. And I think there's a handful of porno images that I saved while drunk. lol #noshame

@WoomyNNYes MK7? Man, I haven't touched that in years. But I was playing MK8DX with my cousin on Friday.

@Heavyarms55 Yeah, I saw that. I figured you were playing with family. My niece just likes to pick characters to hear their catch phrases, cancel, reselect, cancel, select another character, and repeat

Regarding what you've played, do you have a couple sentences to say about Crysis? (Typing while watching Digital Foundry Crysis Switch modding/overclocking)

@Heavyarms55 You and me both! For gaming especially, I prefer actual buttons, keys, and analog sticks way over those touch buttons some mobile games provide. Even for just browsing the web, I much prefer using a computer over a phone. It's kinda how I grew up too, I've used PCs for years so I know my way around them.

Speaking of Mario Kart, I also played MK8D this weekend. I just finished the tournaments that Nintendo hosted for the NA region.

@MarioLover92 I need to hunt down one of those flash games sometime. It isn't as good as the real thing of course, but I need to relieve some grievances with that crazy dog....

Other than the two Sonic games I've already mentioned, I haven't really delved into the series. I skipped the first Sonic The Hedgehog as I'd heard 2 was better in many ways; I figured that would be the one to sell me on the series. While I did like the game, it wasn't quite enough to turn me into a big fan. I do feel like I should give more of the games a shot when the time comes. Heck, I'd even briefly try Sonic '06 just to see why it's so infamous. XD

@Heavyarms55 That's definitely more images than what I'd ever use for backgrounds for at least the next ten years. XD I also use rotating images via themes I create or borrow from the interwebs, but never quite that amount.

Kudos on the mechanical keyboard! I picked up a fairly decent MSI keyboard at a Micro Center about a month before quarantine hit. That helped to make my stint of working from home a LOT easier.

Also, in case I haven't thanked you already....Thanks for the links on the Colony 6 reconstruction in XC. That really saved me some time and sanity lol. I fully completed everything, even going so far as to collect those rare elemental drops. Dang those things are annoying.

Anyone know how to snag printable manuals for nes games on nintendo.com? I cant seem to find it even its even available.

WoomyNNYes

@Anti-Matter Oreo McFlurry sounds good. Id like to try that green ice cream cone.

@NintendoByNature hmm... Im not aware the nintendo site has nes manuals. My gut says they don't. I downloaded some scans of nes game manuals way back. Used to have sites bookmarked. Some people had sites with a list of games and link to their scanned manuals. But i think it was like multiple manual pages in poster form. Which doesn't sound like what you're looking for.

I'd go look at what I have, but my pc died today. Fails to boot up. Power supply or something.

@WoomyNNYes The top 8 players in each tournament would get 2,500 gold coins for My Nintendo. I wasn't one of those people. XD

@Tyranexx I see. And yes I do like Sonic 2 a lot more than Sonic 1, it has an even better sense of speed. Sonic 1 is a very good start for the series, but some of the zones just drag (namely the Marble and Labyrinth zones). So I probably wouldn't recommend it to you.

@NintendoByNature Right here. You could go up to the game you want, click "Printed Manual," and then you could print it. This applies to all the games that are on the NES Classic, if that helps.

@NintendoByNature Yeah no problem!

@WoomyNNYes Yeah, you're right...these guys were absolutely ruthless. Actually, I did get 100 platinum coins for participating in last month's tournaments, so that's something at least. I'm sure they'll give me 100 more for playing in this month, too.

@Tyranexx Very nice! Colony 6 reconstruction is a big thing in the game. I am still working on my playthrough but life and distractions and just other games, mean I only just finished Mechonis Core. Which is every bit as awesome as it was the first time I saw it.

Your stint of working at home? So you're back in the office then?

@MarioLover92 Yeah, same here. Buttons, keyboard, mouse, sticks, that's just how I grew up using electronics. I vastly prefer it over this new wave of touch everything. I just crave that what would you call it, tactile feedback? Physicality? I make a lot more typos using digital keyboards. And I'm not a fan of even those ultra thin laptop keyboards where the keys hardly move with each press. But I can tolerate those longer than a touch screen. I don't know how people work on touch screen devices all day long if there is any typing needed. I suppose you just get used to it but... eww.

@WoomyNNYes Yeah, my cousin came over to help me figure out what I did wrong with the new power supply I bought for this computer. It turned out the plugs were just really tight in one area, and I had the wrong cord for the graphics card even though it fit, it was the wrong one - thankfully that didn't cause any harm. Then after we had lunch we just chilled playing Mario Kart for a bit.

Back in the day I used to attend a local Pokemon league, but half the time we'd end up playing Mario Kart or Animal Crossing after we all opened packs and played a few games. MK7 was great because it supported download play, so not everyone needed to own the game.

Your niece sounds quite young. Real cool of ya to play games with her. My other cousin has an 8 year old that she leaves here about as much as he is home, but he is pretty much obsessed with Fortnite. I pity my uncle and cousin's wallets. XD

It annoys me to no end when I see videos with basic volume inconsistency. Like the thing where they could've taken seconds to adjust the volume of two things to fit together well, and just...didn't.

Ah, well, I think he's been mentioned around these forums with leaks before, @BabyYoshi12 .... Wasn't he the one that said XBox was making Live Gold free recently? Which prompted MS to say they weren't planning any such thing! Guess we'll find out about any Nintendo Direct soon enough, though

@MarioLover92 Yeah, speaking of ruthless mk8 online racing, Ive encountered that enough when there are no tournaments. I wish they made it easier to race without weapons. Races with no items, or only mushrooms, or only coins are so difficult to find ACTIVE races. You can't see if communities have actual people racing, and it's such a terrible slog opening and loading each community only to find nobody's home. I don't understand why they are locked behind the painful, fragmented, spotty community system.
