@Sunsy Oh that's cool to hear you like reading that book. No worries, I don't judge! That purple background looks like it fits Poppy really well.
World 5's probably the most unique world in SMB3, since it literally has two maps connected by that tower level. World 6 is definitely a cool one - no pun intended - I do like winter levels, as well. I think my favorite one is World 4, where everything's all massive, and it has my favorite world map music in the game. Nice - that was one of the games my dad had for his SNES. So it's no wonder we're both nostalgic for SMAS!
Yeah absolutely...SMB3 especially needed a save feature, because of how many levels the game has. Assuming that you're not aware of where you'd find the warp whistles, it would've taken a really long time to beat in one sitting. Ah really, I can't blame your friend for leaving his NES on. That's what I probably would have done if I was around during the 80s! Thank goodness that the SNES had way more games that saved your progress.
@reporterdavid Yeah looks like they do! I went ahead and looked it up, and it seems like you'll need to do 7 photo shoots to be able to have everything in the wedding catalog. I just did my second photo shoot today.
@MarioLover92
About Wedding photoshoot, you can make more interesting wedding party photoshoot if you able to add more folks from your villagers for the photoshoots. Just scan your amiibo card / figurines to summon them.
Last two years ago I made a "scandalous" wedding party photoshoot which the guests (my villagers and special villagers) started to leave the party for having diarrhoea after somebody put a Dulcolax in wedding cake and Cyrus had argument with Reese and accused Reese put Dulcolax in their wedding cake. 😁😆
Wow, that State of Play was VERY good. I'm very much a PS lurker (don't have any of the systems yet I still keep up with the news) but jesus the stuff they showed looks excellent. I'm personally most excited for RE4 Remake (haven't played a single game in the series but still adore it wholeheartedly).

@MarioLover92 Thanks, I still enjoy picture books based on characters I like. Even though that particular book reuses scenes and renders from the Trolls movies, some of the more original Trolls books have original stories and artwork that's even beautiful at times. So I still like reading them. Though, thinking about it, and Nintendo related, I had a picture book as a kid of the Super Mario Bros movie, lol. Similar to that Trolls book in the pic, it just reused scenes from the movie.
Definitely, I'd say the spiral tower is also one of my favorite castles in the series. Sometimes, I like using the P-wing to explore outside the tower to see where the bricks lead to. I love World 4 as well, all the big blocks, pipes, enemies, it's a lot of fun. Also, love the map music to World 4, as well as World 5's land area. Indeed. One nostalgic memory, snow day stuck at home, I just played a bunch of World 6 levels. I also remember playing World 5-3 one Christmas season, I think when I got my Mario and Yoshi ornament it put me in the mood for Mario.
Yeah. If it weren't for knowing where those warp whistles are, I can imagine how long it can take. I like to think warp zones, warp whistles, and in Sonic case, level select were just ways developers helped players who wanted to play, but had to turn off their system. Like a secret way to continue the levels. Yup, and all four Mario games had four save slots each.
State of Play happened… I’m a little glad I didn’t stay up to see it since I needed the sleep more than the FF16 news, as much as I love what I’ve seen so far. They’ve taken a new direction for this game, more single player, just one party member, and it feels really Westernised in that way. The appeal of JRPGs (which most FF games are textbook examples of) is that you come together with five to seven people to form a party, then you all go and kill God together. Seems Clive’s gonna do that all by himself…

I really hope the Wii U Zelda remakes get ported to switch. My game pad won’t connect to the console, unless the console is literally on my lap, making it a pain to play the console. Meaning playing on the tv is out of the question entirely.

@Sunsy Nice. Always good to see great artwork in general! I have a lot of gaming-related books, and whenever possible, I do like looking at pictures while I read them. Same with pretty much any other book that I read! I rented a book from my college's library that was about animated movies and cartoons, and there were a pretty good amount of screenshots to go alongside the reviews and stuff. That also reminds me, when I was a tot, I used to have a book that was themed around Mario. I can't remember if it was a picture book or a coloring book, it might have been either or. I do know that it was based on the original Mario games themselves.
The spiral tower's a cool level for sure, I do like how a couple parts of the level take place outside. That's a cool memory for sure - again, no pun intended, lol. SMB3's just a pure masterpiece, plain and simple - love how varied these levels are and the amount of power-ups you can play around with is staggering.
Yeah, I would think that the warp whistles also made for a makeshift save feature, and I would imagine that a lot of people had Nintendo Power back in the day, so it wasn't all bad. Yeah I loved that All-Stars had a save feature for all four games! It was especially useful in Lost Levels. Thank goodness you could save on any level. It was that, and my perseverance, that helped me finish the game.
@Tyranexx So my D&D game is now on hiatus due to my work schedule changing, this was my one fear of starting up a D&D game. Hopefully I can work something out and can play at least once a month.

Hello to any Monster Hunter fans here, could anyone tell me what the first song from the Tetris 99 MHR theme is?
I remember falling in love with it when I played the demo way back when but I could never find the name of it so I'm hoping that one of you may know it. Thanks in advance for the help!

I'm glad it's finally the weekend. It'll be fun, though very busy. I'm heading to a theme park with my siblings tomorrow, and Sunday will be a mix of out of town visitors and maybe some D&D. I doubt I'll fit much into the video game department (outside of a few minutes of Pokemon Go now and again) Saturday and Sunday, but I'm off Monday for 1. a recovery day, and 2. I need to burn some personal time before I lose it. Normally I can accumulate it, but I've maxed out the allowed amount.
On a less positive note, my maintenance insomnia seems to have returned over the last few days. I'm happy my bro is driving first thing in the morning since I can't guarantee what shape I'll be in by then. REALLY hoping I can catch more Zs tonight.
@MarioLover92 I have touched stingrays in aquariums, but typically their stingers are filed or maintained in some way, plus they're used to human interaction lol.
Observation is definitely key when drawing RL objects, or even when trying to recreate something from memory. With a physical subject, the artist may notice something others don't. That's sorta why I like art studies done by students in classes using the same object(s). Everyone sees and experiences the world in a different way. I also struggle with drawing anything small. XD Though it isn't something that comes up often.
@Tasuki That's a bummer. Work schedule changes are why we've had to cancel on more than one occasion as well. Hopefully your group works something out. At the very least, I hope one or more group members were taking notes in case the hiatus becomes quite long.
