@Anti-Matter Oooh, I've seen that shirt floating around online! I really like the design, though I admit I've never played a Sly Cooper game. I don't have a preference for the character one way or the other, I just haven't had a chance to play them.

@Tyranexx Yup, that's something I really wouldn't want to attempt. I'd be afraid I might damage something on the cart.

@Mikmoomamimocki Yeah, Disney games on the DS were usually different than their console counterparts. I have Cars 2 on DS, has a story mode that followed the movie, in addition to being a racing game. IIRC, after beating the story, I mostly replayed the race mode in that one.

Sonic Rush and Kirby Super Star are still pretty good choices. Wouldn't say all licensed games are bad. As mentioned, Cars had some solid racing games on DS, minus the mini-game filled first movie game, and as @Fizza mentioned, Phineas and Ferb was another good DS one too.

@Blooper987 Don't worry about it, life sometimes does get really busy. It's nice seeing you hop on though. I'm doing well enough, not too much happening lately outside playing some games and a friend who moved away visiting. Recently played Paladins and laughed because I forgot I had Amelia Watson set as my announcer, lol.

@MarioLover92 I think three waves per year sounds like it, we'll have to wait and see. I'm really hoping for Delphino Square, I always enjoyed that track on Mario Kart DS. Thinking about it, I would like the Wuhu Island tracks from Mario Kart 7 come back.

@Tyranexx
If you have a chance to buy PS3 machine and the games, make sure you pick Sly Cooper games on PS3 (Trilogy, Thieves in Time).
I have played both Trilogy and Thieves in Time and I have discovered hidden gems from Sony games. As I played through the Sly Cooper games, it grows my compassion toward Sly whose his father got killed by their enemies, Bentley got injured permanently at the end of Sly Cooper 2 storyline. Even Sly Cooper was a thief but he was such a good thief for taking back stolen things from dangerous criminals to save the world. Thief vs thief in this case.

@MarioLover92 or anyone else,

Oh, imagine this. Amazon this morning said Kirby Forgotten Land had "shipped", was scheduled to arrive here by "10pm". It's been saying that all day. Now, 7:45pm, the status has changed, now it HASN'T shipped. So shady!!! It still says it will arrive by 10pm. I spidey senses sense BS.

I knew Amazon had a reputation of delayed new releases when I orders. I knew I was taking a risk. I didn't know they'd lie like that though.

Eel, I want to report Amazon for being stupid liars.😁

EDIT: 9pm, an email notification came saying it shipped, arriving tonight by 10pm, but it was too late for that to be credible. Open tracking, now it has a nebulous delivery window of March 26-27. Thank you Prime Membership. I wish this was the first time Amazon repeatedly gave me conflicting, dubious shipping statuses leading up to a delivery failure. This happened at least twice since summer. You can tell the package is stuck somewhere, but the system keeps right on saying it will arrive by the end of the day. And it doesn't arrive.

Going to Best Buy tomorrow.

Last night I stabbed myself in the forehead with my own thumbnail while sleeping.

So I took that as a sign that instead of only clipping my nails, I should file them down as well.

Now they’re all smooth. I can’t scratch an itch.

@Eel At some point, everyone ends up with unexpected damage from freshly cut nails. Lol. I think with me, at some point I scratched an itch on my face, or eyes, and I ended up scraping, hurting myself. Real life lessons are learned here, Eel.

I just spent an hour playing MOL SOCCER ONLINE Lite, playing online matches. Since it's like Rocket League, I was crushing it. It's not as refined as Rocket League, but it looks and sounds so amusing, it's pretty fun for now, for a free game. The game froze a couple times loading up a match, due to connectivity issues. I have stable internet. So, it may be a buggy/new-game issue, or because of connecting with far away servers.

@Rambler That video is kinda magical. Chase Hawk's riding and with that song<33 He's so smooth & flow-y, linking all those manuals and ice-pick grinds. (In case anyone doesn't know the terminology: manual = coasting wheelie -no pedaling, ice pick grind = a manual, grinding on back peg.) When I've rewatched it, I keep noticing more places he's doing manuals. Like sometimes, he's landing in the bowl transition doing a manual. It's amazing. 😁

I finally figured out how to create GIF's from Youtube (sorry for never getting back to you on that btw @WoomyNNYes) so I can finally have one of my favourite protagonists in recent memory as my pfp. It'll probably only be there for a while but as of now? It's Ryunosuke's time to shine.

@Fizza Oh, you're fine. So, how are you making animated gifs from youtube?

Do you do it like me? Rip the youtube video to mp4 via firefox add-on, then my Samsung Galaxy tablet default video player has a gif creator button on it. It can only make gifs up to 6 seconds long. It's worked decent. (@Zuljaras, that's is how I've made my animated gifs)


@tekoii Did you see this Rocket-League-like free to play game, japan eshop exclusive? Kate Gray posted it in the news thursday. It's not amazing, but it is amusing. MOL SOCCER ONLINE Lite

Pardon the cliche "insane hitbox" title.😉 This is a clip from my online 3v3 last night. This is my "DJ Molcar"(battle car), hence the speakers on the sides of my Mol/hamster-like car. I didn't make it, but I unlocked it winning a matches. Every match won, gave me a New Molcar & customization. I played 5 online matches. I don't know when, or if, customization rewards may end, since it is a free-to-play.

@Zuljaras @WoomyNNYes I had searched 'gif maker from youtube' into google and clicked the first thing that popped up, being a site called GIFMaker. You input a video url into the search bar and then can tinker it as much as you want (cropping, duration, quality, that kind of stuff).

HOWEVER.

Something I found out at the end of the process was that you have the option (and I am not making this up), to turn your GIF (of any random YT video mind you).... into an NFT.

What. The. ****.

@Fizza If something you made became popular, I think the NFT aspect would help monetize it. Sorry if I just stated the most blatantly obvious point of NFTs. I was listening to StarTalk podcast w Neil Degrasse Tyson, and they were talking about NFTs & blockchain. They made the point that there's a way that you can get paid for every time it's used anywhere in the world. So, it's kind of like copyrighting it. And if that's still obvious to everyone except me, forgive me. I just hadn't realized the scale at which you could make money off one thing, more like a Spotify model. They were talking about how a teen kid made something, and ended up making a million dollars off it via nft/blockchain, or maybe it's just blockchain. Anyway, I thought NFT was only selling one thing, never to be sold again, which never sounded that interesting to me.

@Rambler I would assume so. You could theroretically take every frame of a YT video and 'mint', as the site calls them, into NFT's. Ew.

I will say though: seeing Ryunosuke's extremely nervous and worried expression above the words 'Mint NFT' was admittedly pretty funny.


@WoomyNNYes I feel if you're in desperate need of cash, NFT's are probably a great way to make mountains of moolah really fast. The amount of scams for them I've seen on Youtube testify to that at least.

@Rambler Yeah, Danny's really good. I've seen his videos in recent years. Dunno if he's still with Redbull or not.

I've ridden bmx ramp since I was ten, even rode MTB trials/street/park for a few years. I know the bike jumping world, somewhat. https://i.postimg.cc/8zGSX3Bm/fdr-volcano-multi-exposure.jpg

edit:(maybe I'll make that an nft. you guys have to pay 10 cents to look at it😁)

Kirby and the Forgotten Land just arrived. I was already to drive to the store to buy it, because amazon missed yesterday's delivery, and then I popped on here, wasted time, and now it's here! Yay.

@Eel Nobody right clicks and saves pics from the internet. It's too complicated. Nobody could figure that out. 10 pesos please.

EDIT: don't forget to get your gold points for you new physical games people<3 It's been so long since I bought a game, I almost forgot.
