@Anti-Matter have a great day. Here’s a 1UP

@TheJGG Wow! That's coming out pretty rad so far. Really intense right out the gates. Awesome work... keep at it It would be cool if you also came out with like a medley or something, though I'd imagine that's much harder than simply saying ><.

@MarioLover92 Ah lol! Doesn't surprise me. I feel like Awakening and Valentia got a bunch a people like us into Fire Emblem. But ah man, I gotta say I think I prefer Valentia to Awakening. What's interesting though is that in each game the mechanics are slightly different. And HECK YEA! 16bit hype!! I'm so hype for Kirby and the Forgotten Land. Right now I'm trying to not want Pokemon.. xD

@Sunsy Yea, that's true. Matchmaking would be amazing but I think ultimately impractical to implement. I can never play online cause I don't have too many people to play online with xD. Lmao. I'd imagine it was a bit of a tangle to type up xD. I love SMB2, I think it's a really cool game. I just think it came out when people expected something like SMB3 lol.

@Anti-Matter First, have a Great and Happy Birthday ^^! That DDR style battle looks interesting.. and that custom HORI 24 with your design looks super awesome.

@Zuljaras Your Sonicus the Great is really cute, especially in picture 1! :3 Totally did make me smile that day, thanks Ohhh.. and also really sick art piece! Haven't been able to find the time to get into more drawing but hopefully soon :/

I made a 10min Intro to Shotcut tutorial video that:
introduces you to basic features of the free video editor Shotcut.

I wanted to share this here, maybe it can help people get creative or inspired into Video Editing.

@tekoii @1UP_MARIO
Thanks ! 😃

Been in an F-Zero mood the past couple nights. I played F-Zero X on the Wii VC, still a really good game but man, is it tough! lol

@tekoii Yeah I'd agree with that, Awakening was the first Fire Emblem game that I played pretty extensively, and Valentia plays similarly to that, but with dungeons that can be explored. I did play one of the GBA games before that, but for some reason I didn't get into at the time. So I barely played it. Absolutely...both the SNES and Genesis had some truly amazing games. I just bought Mario Party Superstars today, by the way! Would be cool to play a round with you once my copy arrives.

@tekoii Thank you!

The sad thing is that hedgehogs are really basic and dumb creatures and because of that it is a pain to interact with them

Still their saving grace is that they are cute

No more paid DLC after ACNH update...

"Nintendo Confirms Animal Crossing: New Horizons' Happy Home Paradise Will Be Its Last Paid DLC"

WOOHOO...!!! 😄
AAA score from DDR EXTREME USA PS2 song, Kick the Can by BUS*STOP on Heavy difficulty level 7 from 10.
All PERFECT ! 😃

Anyone crafting something for Halloween? I just made those 2 pumpkins for some Halloween mood.

In my country Halloween is not really liked but we love it!

I made the kids some dead man's toes from a non-official hocus pocus cook book. Basically hotdogs looking like toes and wrapped in biscuits

spooky!

@Zuljaras Those are so cool! The lighting especially in the first picture was almost perfect. Reminded me of an old picture I took last year, a bit cruder (considering I had a rubbish Android camera as your lens to view this image). Happy Halloween, I know you'll have an absolute blast considering how much you love Castlevania!

@TheJGG This is so cool! Thank you as well!

You are absolutely right about Castlevania! This day should be the named Castlevania Day!

It's 31 October 2021 here.
I have prepared my another hand drawing that suited with Halloween day.

@Anti-Matter That's pretty awesome. Nice work Anti!

@WoomyNNYes
Thanks. 😀
I accepted someone's request to see my alter ego in creepy looking.
I chose Frankenstein for my alter ego as i have ever drawn Genma Shogun (Reuknight) from Yokai Watch with Frankenstein looking.

@Anti-Matter your such a good drawer

@Anti-Matter Yup! That request was me.😁😁

Gamestop has Pro Controllers on sale on their website. When I go to the gamestop store, the employee rang me up at full price, not the sale price. This feels shady to me. I guess this is a common thing now?

me: Can I get a Switch Pro Controller please. (they're located behind the counter)
cashier: Would you like something fancier?
me: (?!?!?!? baffled & amazed he asked that.) "Switch Pro Controller"
cashier - rings up pro con at full price. "$72" USD ($69.99+tax)
me: That's not the sale price. Gamestop website has the pro controller for $59.00.
cashier: "GameStop does price match guarantee."
me: Ok, but it's a gamestop sale, not matching another store.
cashier: We do price match guarantees.
me: But the sale is your own online store, not a different store.
cashier: Can you show me on your phone?
me: I can, sure. You can't see that it's on sale? (cashier is standing at the counter computer)
cashier: No, we're not set up to look up prices on the gamestop website.
...end scene

In recent years, my experience has been that a store employee gladly looks up their own company website - it's been the norm, as far as I know. Maybe the store is struggling, understandable with the pandemic/shortage economy, and doesn't have it's own wifi?

@Anti-Matter You're welcome.

@tekoii Yeah, still it does point out that Nintendo kept classic online stuff to friends only without an option to play with a random player like most online games. Yeah, it was very different. I did play Super Mario Bros. 3 for a bit yesterday. I still have the original Wii in the living room, so I was playing it there while waiting for laundry to finish.

@WoomyNNYes Thats some Shady *** right there, What did you do? did you just buy it?
