Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

LITERALLY AS I SAID THIS, ALL 3 OF NATHANIEL BANDY'S YT CHANNELS GOT HACKED BY AN NFT SCAM. WHAT ARE THE ODDS.

@Sunsy Precisely! I'm sure I could do it...if I was able to practice in some way beforehand on something I'm NOT afraid of breaking. XD

@Anti-Matter I've heard the Sly Cooper games are pretty decent and would like to give them a try sometime. No PlayStation machine yet though. Maybe someday! Sounds like he's a good thief, not too different from Robin Hood.

On a different topic, I saw the image of you in the "What Games Are You Playing This Weekend?" article and am happy you're still going strong on DDR! I'm not good at most rhythm games, but I like your enthusiasm for that series.

@Fizza You brought this on him! JK.

Though that sucks, just keep giving me reasons why NFT's suck. There was this artist who made a short comic making fun of NFTs, and that artist then got death threats over it, like damn.

@Tyranexx
My legs felt stiff when i was playing DDR again after hiatus for 2 years during pandemic so for level 9 DDR songs I felt a little bit struggle to maintain my timing as I felt quickly exhausted for not playing DDR Arcade for very long time, added by fact i'm no longer young, will be 38 years old on this October 2022 so I will unable to play very hard DDR songs as I grew older. I failed for MAX 300 on Heavy difficulty as I felt very exhausted during the middle part of the song and my legs felt heavy to do rapid steps, maybe the long pants I wore have an effect too. I have to practice again to make my legs can stepping the arrows quickly without feeling exhausted too fast. Also, I think i have keep my arms also stay strong as I have to use my arms to hold the bar and maintain my stepping on the DDR panel. As I can visit malls again, I will try to check out other malls which I remembered have DDR machine inside the game center to make sure the DDR machine was still there.

Here is my brutal honest opinion about DDR machine situation in my hometown Surabaya. The reason there were a few DDR machines in my hometown as almost every game center in my hometown have the 5 panel dancing machine ripoff (I don't want to mention the machine name as I really hate that machine for being a DDR ripoff and caused some copyright issue 20+ years ago between Konami and the developer who made that 5 panel dancing machine. And the top of that, the same developer from 5 panel dancing machine made an exactly DDR clone in America called In The Grove with machine design exactly same as DDR except the holding bar design. That case really made Konami really pissed off and Konami put that case in lawsuit and finally in October 2007, In The Grove aka fake DDR ripoff got banned in America after the verdict from the court. But ironically, the developer of 5 panel dancing machine didn't get shut down and they still making their 5 panel dancing machines until today). And what made me irritated and hate even more as the fact some of game center in my hometown have tendency to provide more maintenance for that 5 panel dancing machine than DDR machine so when i found there were some DDR machines have trouble, they didn't really want to fix them. And added by fact the nowadays trend, peoples are really sucked with popularity from K country (sorry, I don't want to mention that country name as I hate everything from that country) so no wonder the game center provide more 5 panel dancing machines as the popular things nowadays is from K country and that 5 panel dancing machine was also from the same K country. It made me really pissed off as the original machine DDR got no appreciation while peoples really crazy on ripoff things. And this also the reason why i like Japan by the most but i never like anything from K country. Sorry for my brutal honest opinion.

Nearly forgot to do my Wordle for the day and, after doing it, I kinda wish I had.
EPOXY?! EPOXY GIT MORE LIKE.

Finally got Disney+ today, Hulu had an offer that wasn't the Disney bundle, just Disney+ as an add-on. Because of that watched Turning Red this evening, and enjoyed it. Honestly, I wasn't expecting it to take the turn it was going to take. Hope it gets a home release like Luca did, I wouldn't mind owning a DVD/Blu-Ray of it.

Making note to watch Encanto, and looking forward to Elena of Avalor. Mostly because I like the series it spun off of, Sofia the First, only seen a handful of DVDs and the crossover movie with Elena and Sofia. I'm also more impressed to find some of the more obscure Disney stuff from my childhood (Adventures in Wonderland... I'm surprised this is even on here).

@Tyranexx Indeed, I've upgraded computer parts before, but never bothered with opening a GB cart for a battery. Wouldn't want to damage it, especially if the cart works fine aside from not saving.

@Sunsy Please tell us what you thought about Ecnanto after you have seen it wont you?

So… We’re going to talk about Bruno…?

I bought these games yesterday.

Well, once I bought Overcooked All You Can Eat on PS4, I immediately retired my Overcooked 1 and 2 on Switch as the Remastered version have All DLC inside and with better performance on PlayStation machine.

@Eel "Yeah, there's a lot to say about Bruno"

@Snatcher Will do, should be fun to watch as I've surprisingly seen no trailers for it. Mostly just know Mirabel from Disney's social media posts and such. Hoping to get to it this week. Last time I went into movies without knowing anything was Frozen and Trolls, saw their characters while shopping, didn't see anything on the movie until seeing the movie itself.

Going to be fun looking at the catalog Disney+ has. Getting Disney+ is way overdue for this Disney fan.

Finally finished Leonardo I loved working on him!

I hope you guys like him as well

Looks great, @Zuljaras .... What did you say you were doing with him again now he's done?

@Tyranexx I loved seeing the Tanooki Suit in 3D Land as well, even though you can't fly with it in that game. Love that Tanooki Mario's playable in Mario Kart 8 as well, he's one of my mains - solely because of my love for SMB3. One of his trick animations is when he turns into a statue for a brief moment! I even like the horn sound, it's the tail sound effect from SMAS. It took a good while for the Cape Mario flight controls to click with me too.

@Sunsy Yeah Delfino Square's a good track for sure. I liked seeing Shroom Ridge come back as well, I played that track quite a lot in Mario Kart DS. It's actually the first time it's playable online too! I'd like to see Peach Gardens make a comeback as well. That's awesome you got Disney+. Still wanna watch the couple of movies I've mentioned before...but I've been way too busy!

@Zuljaras Looks awesome, great job!

@BruceCM I will varnish him and I will put him next to my Cowabunga collection when that comes!

@MarioLover92 Thank you!

Sounds like a plan, @Zuljaras .... Going to do the others as well, then?

@BruceCM I am thinking about it

@Zuljaras Looks great, was not expecting the pizza slice to be on the sword. Nice touch there.

@MarioLover92 Oh yeah, I forgot, not all tracks were playable online via WFC on DS. I was thinking Peach Gardens when I was thinking of tracks to make a comeback. Yeah, recently Hulu made Disney+ and add-on by itself for $3, so took the offer. So far watched some of Alice's Wonderland Bakery and Turning Red, planning to get around to Encanto and Elena of Avalor.

Originally, I was just going to get the DVD to Encanto and Turning Red (if it pulled a Luca and came out with a home release), but get to watch them sooner. Still will buy DVDs of them since I do still buy them. Actually, that's how I saw Elena of Avalor, I have the few DVDs Disney released, now I can watch the whole series.

@Sunsy I'm pretty sure you will Enjoy it, lots of great music!

@Zuljaras He looks so good! I love that you gave him the white eyes! If for some reason you ever do make another turtle, you should make them black and white.

@Snatcher I do not know what you mean by black and white to have eyes with pupils? That would be hard on that scale

@Sunsy hearing so much good things about my crafts feels so damn good! Thank you!
