@WoomyNNYes When I first opened them the orange surprised me with how bright it was.

Are those about to play something on it, @Kermit1 ....?

@BruceCM Ya, they tend to play Pokemon from time to time...

lol, I find it kinda funny seeing my profile picture on the topic board

@Kermit1 God I hate it so much yet it's so perfect as a pfp.

@Fizza I tried to change it but on here but, pfp's don't change instantly.. Which annoys me..

@Kermit1 Oh please don't take that as me bashing it! I love how cursed it is. If you want to change it though, don't worry about it; I've gone through like 3 at this point (it kind of depends on what game I'm currently playing, like Ace Attorney or Pokemon).

@Fizza Oh, no no I saw it as a playful joke and I'm probably not changing it till Christmas.

Great pfp btw

Maybe this isn’t the right place to say this, but I sure loved this weeks episode of moon knight. Well at least it sounded good, about 2 thirds of the episode I could barely see anything with how dark it was. Seriously what is Disney’s problem with making night scenes so dark you can’t see anything.

Maybe their trying to hint at something...@blindsquarel
(cough)

You know when your room is a mess and one day you want to find something and you make a bigger mess trying to find it. That's me right now.

@Kermit1
Could be, but this isn’t the first series this happened in. Like every marvel movie, when they do a scene at night, is barely visible unless you are in a theater.

It's been awhile since I've watched anime, and (outside of a couple of instances) I haven't really watched anything that isn't suitable to at least teenagers. Someone was kind enough to lend me the entire season of Cowboy Bebop on DVD, and I'm watching 1-2 episodes a night on average. I'm definitely enjoying it so far. It's a brilliant mix of genres and musical themes. Pretty violent at times though lol.

@MarioLover92 The drill mechanic is really fun and, outside of a couple of sections later on that I won't spoil, very intuitive. I can't recall if you've had any exposure to the Gen 3 Pokemon titles, but if so, do you recognize any sounds? XD I also love that they translated the game's rumble to the controller you're using. In most instances I prefer to play with my Wii U Pro Controller, but IMO there's something so right with playing GBA titles directly on the Gamepad.

@BruceCM I see. Glad to know there are indeed other official channels to get the game. Now for the Switch to get Oblivion!

@Anti-Matter I have not. I don't own a PS4, but I'll certainly look into it if the game is on a platform I do own.

@blindsquarel Cinematic Television... Or just an odd choice either way I want to see my action.
Talking about dark imma watch Mirrormask

@Tyranexx
Epic Chef is also available on Steam, and it has more grass detail + 60 fps than the console version (PS4 & Switch version have less detailed grass textures and running on 30 fps).

So, had a nice surprise in the mail today. Received a late birthday card with an eShop card from a friend today. Friend told me to use it on some Wii U games before the eShop closes, so ended up buying F-Zero GP Legend and Rival Turf (wanted to try this one and didn't know it had a Wii U release until I looked up the game).

@MarioLover92 I love my Sega Superstar Tennis and Mario & Sonic Olympics. So arcade-y and fun. Always preferred arcade-style character sports games.

I have Halo MCC on Steam (well, just Halo and Halo 2 anyway), and the few times I played since getting it, there were people playing online. The game even has cross-play, played my Xbox friend on PC, albeit with a controller since that's how cross-play is set up IIRC. Yeah, Doom 2016 does have multiplayer, when I tried it on PC, hardly anyone played. Though I did find people playing on the Switch version.

Wow, that sounds like a cool vinyl record. Now that I think about it, I think there was a Hot Topic vinyl to My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic, the cool part was the art on the record itself. Don't think I've seen anything else like it. Music wise, it was just the show's soundtrack.

@Tyranexx I like your new profile pic! Is she from Professor Layton? The art style looks quite familiar. Glad to hear you're enjoying Cowboy Bebop, I've only heard of that anime.

I do actually recognize the sound effects, they're straight from Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire! The music sounds like they're from the gen 3 games as well, I could easily tell by the instruments used. I played a good amount of R&S back then.

I found myself using the GamePad for GBA games every time, it definitely feels natural, especially when you're playing in off-TV play. I like how you can view the original manual too. Kinda wish they had them for all the VC games, I don't think they had original manuals for the NES and SNES games.

@Sunsy That sounds like a nice surprise indeed. I still have my copy of F-Zero: GP Legend, I used to play that a lot back then. I like Maximum Velocity as well, which is honestly my favorite of the GBA F-Zero games.

Yeah those are good fun for sure, I was thinking of getting Mario Sports Mix from the Wii U eShop since I don't have it now. I do remember enjoying it, just didn't play it as much I guess. I'd say my favorite Mario sports game overall is Mario Power Tennis.

Oh gotcha, I might give Halo's online a shot at some point. Doom's is kind of deserted on PC huh? That's a bit surprising to me.

That's cool they put artwork on the record itself. Weren't there records that came in different colors too? Unless I'm mistaken. I have some game soundtracks on CD, such as the one for Super Mario Galaxy. I also have a Sonic Adventure 2 soundtrack, which I've actually had for years, since 2004 I think. I imported a Mega Man Zero soundtrack CD from Japan long ago, too - it has remastered music from the first MMZ and even drama tracks that go over the game's story.

So tomorrow.I will.be attempting some thing that I have never done before. I will be DMing a Dungeong and Dragons campaign both in person and over the video.

First off it's been a few years since I DMed D&D and second I have never done it over the internet. I will be using discord which I have never used before so there's that. I just hope everything goes alright and we don't have any problems.

https://elderscrolls.bethesda.net/en/daggerfall, @Tyranexx .... You just download it there, no launcher or anything! The Steam version is already 'very positive' user reviews, though, so I don't think it can be that bad

I just had one of those moments were you want to find one of those things you always find when you’re looking for a different thing, but now since you want to find it, it’s like the universe decided it no longer exists.

In this case, it was a specific cable.

To make things worse, after an hour I finally found it, but it wasn’t even compatible with the device I wanted it for.
