@Eel yeah that’s what I thought. I would love to own a physical copy, but dang are the prices for authentic cartridges pricey😅

@Tyranexx Oh that's smart thinking, just sticking with the Switch version. I was considering getting BotW for the Wii U for a bit, but I thought it would be better to get it for the Switch since I was gonna get one anyway, lol. It worked out better in the long run, of course. I remember playing it on campus when I took breaks from college work.

As for MMBN, the first one I played was the white version of MMBN3. So I have some nostalgia for it. I think I heard the blue version was the better one? I might get that on the Wii U VC, or wait until a MMBN legacy collection becomes a thing. 3 is probably the best one in the series, with 2 not too far behind. I've heard people say 4 is the worst BN game, and I can understand why. The game makes you replay the whole game multiple times to get all the Double Souls, for one thing. (I've gotten up to the final boss and I only got one Double Soul throughout my playthrough. Thanks, Capcom.) 5 and 6 were pretty good from what I remember. It's not my absolute favorite Mega Man series (I like the classic, X, and Zero series the most), but it's a solid one overall.

@Eel
What is the negative impact by playing GBA repro cartridge on NDS lite / GBA machine ?

@Anti-Matter nothing really, as long as it’s been appropriately made and you’re ok with the idea of basically paying for a rom.

I was working with my calendar 2021 projects.
My alter ego (David) as Ice Skate Boxer after i added with the blades on his shoes.

@WaveWitch Have no fear, great idea man is here. Ah, scratch that: it's just me, NLife's resident Mad Titan.

A bit of friendly advise: Google before you panic. These things are almost never as bad as they seem. Well, depending on your DIY skills, of course.

Here's a couple of things you can try, before you chuck 'em in the bin:

My grandpa just said I could have the SNES at their house!!!!!!!!! I'll also get the games they have: SMW, DKC, DKC2, Killer Instinct, Tiny Toons, Plok, X-Men, Disney's Magical Quest, A Link to the Past, Mario All-Stars, and Taz-Mania. I'm so incredibly excited and I can't wait to buy more games for the best Nintendo console!!!

@Tyranexx Yup, you can only have one major time sink at a time, well at least: in my humble opinion. If I'm going to spend a lot of time on such a title, then I want a single one to have my undivided attention. Speaking of which: I sorely need to get back to Hyrule. I kinda left it hanging after I got bored with catching and naming horses...

I won't give up any spoilers other than that, if you can even call that a spoiler, but I will tell you that it's wise to stock up on tons of food items, and to mix and match them all into various types of meals and skewers, to bring along with you on your various travels and quests, to provide for stamina, health and protection against the various climate changes...

@Eel So... what you're basically telling me is that you can't un-lock a thread?

why do i hear this at work all the time.

i got those 2 above in magnet form and ordered a doom guy pin for a shirt.
these magnets/pins are dope. they come sealed too. i wish he made more doom ones, but the store is awesome.

It's dangerous to go alone!
Take this.

@Anti-Matter Is that Final Fantasy?

@HotGoomba___Rebrand
Yep, Shiva from FF VIII.

its dangerous to go alone!
take this.

@ogo79 Hahahah that cat looks like a lovely psychopath

@Zuljaras Indeed. Good stuff. Then again, @ogo79's "it's dangerous to go alone's" are always the best. At least he understands context and timing, so he knows when to apply them.

@ThanosReXXX Yes. They are hilarious!

@Blooper987 thats great news about the SNES. As for repro cartridges - fwiw I own a couple for SNES games that were never officially released in the states but have English language patches on the cart. You can do the same with a rom of course, but nothing beats playing a cart with an actual SNES controller. I've seem some rom-hacks too, like Toby Fox's Halloween-themed Earthbound hack.

I still thinking about Xbox 360 Kinect games recently.
Kinda excited but also curious how to take care Xbox 360 E.
@ThanosReXXX
Since i will purchase Xbox 360 very soon, i want to ask some important question.
Is Xbox 360 E the finest model of all Xbox 360 models and have less risk of RROD ?
Is making account for Xbox Live same way as making account for Nintendo eshop since i want to purchase DLC songs for DDR UNIVERSE 3 ?
Are DLC for Xbox 360 games or Kinect games region lock ?
Do i need to set my Xbox 360 always online or can i turn it offline when i don't need to play online ?

I have found one machine I need from local online shop and hopefully I will get it after I get salary.

@Anti-Matter I know @ThanosReXXX will answer in greater detail but I might contribute as much as I can.

Xbox 360 E is the latest model I think. The one that looks more like the original Xbox One. It is FOR me the fines one. It is built to be more power efficient and quiet. Mine is quieter than my PS4 Pro and it does not run hot.

As for Live I have no idea or the Region lock DLCs.

You can just turn off the Internet connection whenever you like. This is not Xbox One/ Series X.
You can create an offline account and just install games and play OR you don't even have to install them. You can play from the disc but I do NOT recommend that as the Drive is loud.

This aged really well after the takedown to GliviaSunner videos today.
