@Kermit1 Tomorrow is when NASA, and maybe European Space Agency will reveal more, and probably give more explanations. Although, Canada may have also been involved creating james webb space telescope. A bunch of countries worked together.

=Eel]This is my cue to repeat that The Origami King start slows, but it’s a great game and I liked it a lot.

Duly noted. I'll keep this in mind.

@MarioLover92 Platinum is a step up in multiple ways over the originals. I still need to pick up Pokemon Legends: Arceus. Hopefully before too long....But my big purchase this month is Xenoblade Chronicles 3.

I'm definitely willing to give Origami King a shot. Several have stated that it's the best entry since Super Paper Mario. I'm not sure how I'll find combat, but the premise and origami characters are certainly interesting.

@BruceCM Sounds like the machine didn't recognize the main C drive, perhaps? Loose cable maybe? BIOS misfire/fluke? Dying HDD/SSD?

Edit: NVM, I saw your reply to Rambler.

@Fizza I encountered that scene a few months ago while during my first ever Partners In Time run. It made me snort on a plane. XD

@Anti-Matter you played a rhythm game blind folded, your good in my book!

@Kermit1
Thanks. 😀
During pandemic I couldn't go out and playing DDR Arcade and even on this year I have to limit my Mall visitation to avoid the risk of the virus spread. Bad news, I found only one DDR machine that still working after 2 years I didn't play DDR Arcade, the other one (DDR X3 Arcade) still unknown if the machine can be repaired or not. 🥺

Yeah, thanks for the thought, @Tyranexx ..... That time I was lucky to find the problem quickly but I'll be sure to ask here if I get something I can't sort out

After year and a half it is finally here!

LEGO CITY toys on sale at my local Mall last Sunday I visited LEGO toys shop.

Only LEGO CITY franchise I like from all LEGO stuffs for no weird looking Western superheroes franchises that I will never like them. It just only Normal looking peoples with actual jobs.

I really wish Tt Fusion want to make another LEGO CITY games on modern consoles without using licensed famous Western franchises or superheroes.
I don't like most of Western stuffs like that.

Hm. I decided to buy a smallish Android tablet I saw on discount for Prime Day in Amazon.

Allow me to speak to myself to validate my impulse buy, and make time so they can charge me before I get buyers remorse and try to cancel it.

Sometimes the iPad Air can be heavy for watching stuff laying down on the bed, and my current 8inch tablet (the Windows one) usually feels like its about to become a fire hazard whenever I try to use it for extended periods of time. A new simpler device should be an improvement for that, even if the specs aren’t anything amazing.

Of course an iPad mini would’ve been a great option, since I’m so deep in the apple ecosystem already, but well this tablet I bought costs a tenth of the price of an iPad Mini. I’d say thats a nice deal. Also having two iPads feels a bit excessive.

@Eel What model is the tablet?

I personally go for either Windows tablets if it is for general use and iPad for creative stuff.

Android is specifically for my phone

Lol, OK that explains a thing or two.

I just don't get it, you know? Aren't presentations like these supposed to excite the people at home, watching and wondering if all their taxes went to a good cause? They couldn't have done a poorer job in that regard.

I got a tablet a couple years ago so I could stop using my phone for simple internet things while at home. It greatly reduces smartphone battery usage & charge cycles, which greatly preserves & extends the life of the phone battery. Perhaps I'm late to the party making this move?

Thank you so much! I really appreciate the encouragement, I look forward to making even better ones in the future. You're more than welcome to recommend me stuff to make, no problem. I do it all from hearing so in some ways it does depend on how "complex" the song is... but yeah, hit me with it! Feel free to take a look at the other covers I've made too, maybe I've already made one of your picks?

My Wii U gamepad was acting up when I tried to use it. The screen was laggy and unresponsive.
Hope it sorts itself out, it worked fine a couple of months ago when I last used my Wii U.

@TheJGG I noticed you have an impressive resume of Zelda covers so maybe Mabe Village (hey that kind of rhymes)? Link's Awakening is my favourite Zelda game (very closely with Link To The Past) and Mabe Village is always something I look forward to returning to so I think it'd be a cool one to cover!

@Fizza Maybe Mabe-y indeed, thanks a bunch for the recs! I got started and ended up producing about a minute and a half of song. Naturally it's extremely simple since... song, but I went and took the melody straight from the GB copy for accuracy. Played around and kinda went the Remake route of string chords, but also added a guitar variation. See how it sounds!

@Zuljaras its a lenovo smart tab m8. A slightly older model, admittedly.

It supposedly comes with a charging base to use it as a google hub/assistant. So I suppose I can find a use for it even if it somehow is too weak for my general use.

@TheJGG Sorry for not getting back to you sooner (I was off at a pitch and putt) but it sounds great! Very relaxing and I love the little bit of chiptune (hopefully that's what it is and I'm not embarrassing myself) thrown in at around the 45-50 second mark, very classy. The speed in which you made it is absolutely mind blowing as well, keep up the fantastic work!

@MarioLover92 Definitely Mario Kart GP and time trial more, a lot of time trial too. I remember when I had one controller, I actually swapped them back and fourth just to see the battle mode stuff.

@NinChocolate I did, posted them to the cooking thread yesterday evening.

@Zuljaras Wow, that's a long wait. Enjoy the game, hope it was worth the wait.

@Mermaiden What the heck
