It’s releasing tomorrow. Although I still have the the games but this looks special

We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.

Candy cane striped the porch column yesterday with 6 strings of christmas lights - 3 red strings, 3 white. I've never put lights up this early before, but we may not hit 65F again before December. (I used 8 strings last year. More lights definiltey looks cooler. I may break down and have to put up two more strings. We'll see.)

@WoomyNNYes I can practically hear Mariah Carey already just by looking at your photo.

I also might start hallucinating Kevin McCallister there too

@WoomyNNYes @NintendoByNature I always do this early, it gets really cold in December, so I usually put out the lights early, do a small test to see how it looks, and then light it up after Thanksgiving. They're up on the outside banister already.

Though, I do listen to Christmas music early too. Mostly because I wait all year for it, but also it motivates me to get my chores done and it's my favorite holiday.

@NintendoByNature Yeah, mine are off, too, until after thanksgiving. I've got the daylight sensor/timer ready to go.

My brother drove into to town last night, and mentioned he saw houses with christmas lights on. I said, "Oh, I guess I'm not the only one getting them up early". He said, "I don't think these people's lights ever got taken down.😉".

Thanks @Zuljaras!

@Sunsy Oh yeah, it was you the other day, that said you put up your lights. You inspired me to take advantage of the warm weather. Thanks! It definitley sucks putting lights up in the cold, with your fingures geting cold/stiff/numb. It was nice doing it in shorts - it was just warm enough.

@WoomyNNYes They are nice indeed. I wish more people do those kinds of decorations here. How to say it ... more American!

Unfortunately in my country around Christmas there are ad campaigns for sick and dying people, hungry orphans and other very sad things ALL the time (during the holidays)! It is little depressing. They could do those campaigns every other time of the year but around Christmas people feel more generous and give more money.

WoomyNNYes

@Zuljaras We get those seasonal ads too. Yeah, it gets old when those ads blatantly exploiting emotions get run excessively. I know what you mean.

@Sunsy @WoomyNNYes yea exactly. Around now in the Midwest, I'm normally looking 35F, so I jump right on putting them up in 60 degree weather.

I do have a few lights I need to add to it though, so it's not fully finished, but the additional should only take 15 min.

I also love listening to Xmas music and it's on at the moment 😁

@WoomyNNYes You're welcome, glad I inspired you. It's always been a habit of mine for years, just to make sure things are up before it gets too cold. Rest of the stuff inside usually goes up slowly, like the tree, I wait until after Thanksgiving for that. Though I have my stocking out now, only because I needed to clean it from some dust.

@NintendoByNature I see, I live in New Jersey, so the temperature usually is around the 40-50 degree mark on most years, hence why I took advantage of the warmer weather. It's still better than waiting closer to December, where it goes under 40 degrees.

Awesome! I feel like putting some music on now too.

Speaking of Christmas decorations, I got to bring down some of the decorations we have, including the tree itself. Just so we don't have to bring down nearly as much when it's getting close to December. The tree was the hardest part, lol. I like listening to snow music from Mario games while I decorate for Christmas.

@Sunsy I have a couple of those GameCube-like classic controllers that were made by Hori. One has the Mario design, the other has the Luigi design. They're pretty decent controllers I think, and has a slightly larger control pad. The control stick is a bit sensitive, though, I noticed it when playing Super Mario 64 with it. Other than that, they're quite good for N64 games on the Wii VC. I got those controllers over a year after I transferred everything from my Wii to my Wii U.
