@Anti-Matter Nope, you can save anywhere. I believe wildworld is the start button, and City Folk is by bringing up the menu using the wii pointer.

@Anti-Matter I see...just so you know, however, that the games might be a little difficult to figure out because all the text is in Japanese. Unless you know the language really well. You will want to know what all the items do and how the minigames are played, for example. There's no harm in asking others if they'd like to play, even if they primarily play on mobile devices. I've played Smash Bros. and Mario Kart with a couple of my cousins who primarily play on Xbox/PS4.

@MarioLover92
Well, i have basic knowledge of reading and writing Hiragana and Katakana with some understanding the meaning from the words so i have some benefits to able play some Japanese games.

Recently i have checked the gameplay videos of some Japanese version Gamecube games such as Mario Party 4 - 7, Starfox Assault, Wave Race Blue Storm, Rockman EXE, Bomberman Generations, etc. I found some Japanese Gamecube games have a lot of using Hiragana and Katakana words to make it easier to read for Japanese kids, sometimes there were some Kanji words with Furigana on the top.
Party games like Mario Party are quite easy to understand the gameplay even i don't really read the Japanese texts as action and pictures explain more than words. For Starfox Assault, there were some English words on it despite the texts and voiceover were Japanese but the description of each mission, the U/I, notification were in English words. I have Starfox Adventures USA version but when i checked the Japanese version from Youtube, the voiceover was in English but the texts was still Japanese.

I have ever offered my video games for multiplayer play to my family members but they didn't have any interest to try. It was so contrary when we were still young, my Mom and my siblings were used to be played NES and PS1 games despite we played pirated games with modchipped machines (PS1, PS2).
As we grew up, our interest have changed but i still keep my interest with console & handheds games.
My relatives (especially the elders) have zero interest with console / handhelds gaming as they didn't even consider those hobbies as a norm in their live. They still think adult playing video games are childish. They consider handphone gaming instead as their norm.
And that's why i always play alone.

@bimmy-lee Funnily I’ve found myself in the same boat, I’ve played through the first five dungeons of Skyward Sword in concerningly short time. About 19 hours, and I’ve just arrived at the Fire Sanctuary. Twilight Princess is another game that I could take my time with but ultimately didn’t. The dungeons in that game were absolutely solid through. While I miss conventional Zelda items that aren’t present in Breath of the Wild, like the Clawshot, a finite Bomb Bag, or even things like the Spinner (too much fun), I can see why it’s not implemented.

@BabyYoda71 While I’d agree that that’s an unpopular opinion I can absolutely see why you think that way. I similarly really disliked the original Legend of Zelda, it was way too vague even for NES game standards. I’d sooner play a good game of A Link to the Past, that was a turning point for the franchise, though it got overshadowed by Ocarina of Time. Much like the Persona 3/4 to the Persona 5, how it feels like between the two is a massive step but really it’s just a new coat of paint and otherwise.

I do hope you enjoy the rest of the games you have, because mark my words you will never want to play another Zelda game ever again after playing Breath of the Wild. I’m joking of course but the freedom you have is something the older games lack frustratingly!

@VoidofLight Nintendo always love turning sequels into… other stuff. They turned a Wind Waker sequel into TP after all. But Link’s Crossbow Training is not a Zelda game, it’s just a crossbow game with a Zelda coat of paint. Absolutely disgraceful!!!

@Snatcher I’ve flown out to Egypt. Lovely weather, (36 Celsius, better than what I’m used to) and while the hotel rooms aren’t the best the whole resort’s amazing. There’s always a nice sea breeze too…

My Wii games library grew bigger quickly during this year, so does with my Wii U and Gamecube games. With more Wii games i got, I decided to separate Wii games alone in one room while i put Wii U and Gamecube games in different room.

Again, I'm really sorry about the delayed responses guys; especially those of you who have waited over two weeks for a reply back. I was going to update you guys on Wednesday (or yesterday even), but things got busy (again).

@Tyranexx
Glad to hear that its progressing well. It sucks that you have to wait until the fall though to have your windows. Hopefully, your windows are in good enough condition to wait until then.

Yeah, it defintely is nice that they put them up later. It does seem like Square Enix has been making some rather odd decisions recently, bsaed on what I've heard. I don't know if I told you this already, but I tend to just watch Nintendo E3 Direct, as I know that's where the majority of the games I would be interested in would be at. I try to watch the Directs live, but sometimes I'm not able to due to other things going on at that time.

Glad I clarify the stuff regarding the question game. Sometimes, I'm not the clearest when I communicate something, so I just wanted to make sure that everyone was on the same page.

Speaking of the question game, I actually asked a question recently but no one has responded to it yet. I'm not sure if you saw it, so I'll quote it here, so that you don't have to look back for it.

There’s a question I want to ask you guys. This technically is a two-part question, but they’re connected.

First, have you guys heard of the WarnerMedia-Discovery merger, and if so, what do you think of it?

I know it’s technically going to be called Warner Bros. Discovery if the merger happens, but I believe most people have heard of it as WarnerMedia-Discovery (or Discovery-WarnerMedia).

@Snatcher
Yeah, I feel like U.B. Funkeys was one of those games that you needed to know about during the time of its release, in order to know what it is, as I don't think it's that well known, and is probablt the least known Toys to Life games, AFAIK.

Also, don’t feel bad that you bought something from Pokémon Unite. I completely understand why people don’t like Tencent, but it sounds like you’ve made a really good effort of avoiding Tencent, based oh the posts you’ve made. Plus, Tencent is HUGE so we’ll all probably end up playing a game or buying something from them if they continue to grow.

I mean, it sounds like China is starting to crack on its “Big Tech” companies, and they already took a stab at Tencent, actually. The stab at Tencent is regarding Tencent having the majority of exclusive music rights in China, so it’s not about how big they’ve gotten, but it seems that China is taking a similar approach for cracking on “Big Tech” that the US is starting to take.

@ThanosReXXX
Yeah, I'm doing really late replies again. It does seem like things are starting to (emphasis on starting to) slow down for me, so hopefully I'll be able responses out more quickly, but we'll see. I’ve been busier this summer, than I would have liked, so it’s causing things to get pushed back unfortunately.

@Sunsy
Yeah, the first beta was bizarre. Just an FYI, they disabled the disconnect from the lobby if you go into the Home Menu in either Season 4 or 5, IIRC.

@MarioLover92
That sucks that your Smart TV struggles with streaming stuff. I guess it must not be Smart enough to handle Disney+, LOL. Hopefully, your Smart TV works else, and that your streaming box is working properly. I believe you’re right about the Studio Ghibli movies being on HBO Max, I remember hearing something like that when HBO Max launched.

@NintendoByNature
Thanks for being patient, I really appreciate it.

I guess I missed a recent notification of yours, because when I checked my email notifications to see when you last tagged me, it showed that it was in January of this year. It looks like the system goofed, as I couldn’t find any notifications from you after that.

If that’s the time you’re talking about, then I’m sorry that I didn’t respond to you.

I now have the majority of my responses out now from the Awesome Chit-Chat Thread. I will respond to your message @TheJGG, it will just probably take a while, as is will mostly likely be a big response, and I’m attempting my messages from being too long.

Please give Ninjala a chance, guys. 🤔
As @Sunsy said,
Ninjala Gang FOR LIFE!
Also, if I don't respond to your post within a day (or two), don't worry, I'm not ignoring you. I'm going to be busy, though I will do my best to respond in a timely fashion.

Uninstalled Instgram.

I always kept that thing logged out. Only signed in sparingly. I never wanted any more than that. Well, now it seems an update made it so I cannot log out anymore.

Is it my phone or not? Really tired of these battery-depleting, parasitic, data-stalking, want-access-to-everything-on-my-phone jackwads. At Eel, I'd like to report that instagram is an a__hole. So, ridiculous. We need to breakup facebook/instgram yesterday.

I use an iPhone and have tracking off, so I'm surprised Instagram hasn't been constantly reminding me that I'm a traitor.

@Eel I've got a samsung galaxy/android. Yeah, it kept asking for access to "phone" now. For 2+ years it only had access to camera, storage, microphone, and I didn't even like microphone. I always keep my phone location disabled, except if I use Waze navigation for a long drive. (granted, location probably can't truly be disabled).

I only gave it access to my pictures. I've never really taken a video or photo through it, I always pick them from the gallery.

@SM3DASislit hey its no problem. I honestly can't remember the last thing I said to you. In all fairness, I forgot what I did yesterday 🤪. You tried at least, so you get an A OK from me.

@Anti-Matter Huh, I see. Sorry to hear but it's a good thing you asked them.

@SM3DASislit My smart TV does Netflix and Hulu just fine, so no complaints there. I can watch YouTube on it as well, but the problem is that the audio cuts off for a second. That happens pretty much once every time I use the YouTube app on my smart TV and that is incredibly annoying. I literally have to rewind a bit just so I could hear what was cut off...I should not have to do that at all!!! My TV was made by Vizio, which is one of the cheaper brands you could get. It's all good with the late responses, so don't worry about it.

@WoomyNNYes Main reason I don’t use Instagram is because I prefer to choose the amount of contacts I have for personal use. With that platform any Tom, Dick and Harry can message me and considering my dark and mysterious past I’d prefer to keep contacts to a minimum. WhatsApp forever.

Won’t say whether it was the right thing, I’d respect your choice either way.

@SM3SASislit As mentioned by @NintendoByNature I can’t say I remember entirely my subject matter but I’m sure I’ll be up to speed quite soon. Hope everything’s well, but keep in mind that there’s no need to apologise for living your life. It’ll be fun responding to a typically poignant and thought-provoking post by yourself. Take care.
