Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

While I never did get to play Wii Sports Resort, I kind of miss Wuhu Island. Nowadays the only remnants of it appear to be the Smash Wii U stage in Smash Ultimate, Chambara in Switch Sports and 3DS Wuhu Town in MK8 Deluxe battle mode.

While I remember that case, @Fizza .... I'm not familiar enough with just the images to work out how they relate to it! Sorry

@Grumblevolcano
Yeah, wuhu island is amazing. I can’t figure out why Nintendo decided to cast it aside for switch sports. It would have been a great marketing tool at the very least.

The Bayonetta 3 release date is bitter sweet. Happy it's still coming this year but stinks where they tucked it in. No time or money for all of this!

@Anti-Matter - Hey Anti, yep, my daughter went back to in person learning last year, and they’ll both be there this coming school year. It might be a little strange at first, but you’ll probably really enjoy being back in the classroom again.

@WoomyNNYes - Ha, I do remember spammy lee, but I can’t remember who came up with it or the context. It does seem like a Thanos kinda joke though.

@Tyranexx - Hey! Doing well here, hope the same for you. These dang kids are keeping me busier than ever. They’ll both be in school this fall, so I guess I’ll join the real world again. I finally managed to flip the basement and I’m in the process of moving back in and setting it up. I have confirmed space for a retro gaming area. I’ll post a pic when it’s set up, I’m very excited.

@NintendoByNature - Get good, noob.

@bimmy-lee Oh yeah haha I miss Ogo' s comments, he was much more active. I suppose that we'll slowly vanish while new users become the "usual people" here. I know it's natural but it kinda freaks me out haha.

@Sunsy @Tyranexx @MarioLover92 @Snatcher @Anti-Matter @WoomyNNYes @Eel and everyone else that I apologize if I didn't mention, I'm glad to see you guys active as always, I hope you are all doing well.

@Snatcher May consider an XCom game on PC. Actually you're the second person who mention XCom to me.

@Kermit1 I agree!

@MarioLover92 All I did was swap controllers at character select, choose player two, and swapped back. In those days, I most games didn't give you a "please connect player two's controller" error message. So I just drove around the battle stages since player two was standing still obviously.

Nice bonus. I got into it because of the trial, and got the digital version because it was so cheap. I like it, honestly, it's making me want the sequel, which I'll consider getting physically.

@seaboyluca Alrighty! Um... SILENZIO BRUNO!!!

@Grumblevolcano ngl, exploring Wuhu in Wii Fit Plus while biking was pretty fun.

@Sunsy Really? Lol, it’s because a really good game, aim planning to get back into it after demon souls, Gonna do a new saves because my old one, I never finished so might as well start over.

@roy130390 Doing great! This year is great for gaming in my opinion.

@bimmy-lee this reminds me of July/ August 2019 where I couldn't decide between MUA3, Bloodstained RotN, and Astral chain. You told me to git gud, and you're telling me now. Given the last 3 years, I'd say you might do this again at some point in May of 2025 @Bimmy-Lee 😃😀

Nope, always thought that was a very funny coincidence. Oh, and no need for spoilers. Everybody knows those two quotes from the movies.

Helped teach a kid how to ride a bike on a quarterpipe today at a local skatepark. He was about 12 years old, and kept going up the ramp and sliding out at the top when he'd try to bunnyhop and turn. I've never seen anyone in my life screw it up like he was.🤣 The ramp is slippery, though, and he didn't know what he was doing. After I told him a couple things to focus on, he started getting the hang of the bunnyhop turn at the top of the five foot tall quaterpipe(two meters-ish). He was so psyched. It was pretty cool to see. I'm glad I was there. He said thanks so many times. I was glad I could share the sercrets. I remember how effing clueless I was when I was learning. I was about the same age, too, when I was learning to ride the 6 foot quarterpipe my brother built.

I'm psyched for the beach trip coming up. Taking the switch to play with the nieces. Oh crap, they have a switch now too. I forgot. There's an ok cement skatepark by the place, plenty of nature, and the weather isn't hot AF like it is most years. I love the drive to the beach. The drive takes up most of the day. First hour of driving is garbage, but the rest is great.

Hey there, @roy130390. I haven't had much to say in the past few months, but I still check forum and chit chat thread. Kind of bored of all my games lately, except for Rocket League. Very much looking forward to Splatoon 3.

Morning.
I have returned and.... It's raining outside. 🌧😑

@WoomyNNYes
"Kind of bored of all my games lately"

Have you tried Animal Crossing New Horizons?

@Grumblevolcano @blindsquarel
Nintendo should make their Switch Sports game like Go Vacation by Bandai Namco where you can free roaming in several different resorts area and there are a lot of sports and indoor / outdoor activities to be played.

@Tyranexx For sure! XC3 is gonna be mind-boggling as usual lol. Ahh nice nice, how're you enjoying Dread so far? I love Metroid but I feel like they revealed all the cool new stuff before releasing it. I also kinda feel like the EMMI kinda bogged the pace down a bit. But meh meh, have fun with it, it's still a great and well developed game, plus they added that sweet boss rush!

@Sunsy Ahh, I feel like I've seen some stuff on RWBY on Twitter, but I don't know much about it. I saw some character with a crazy scythe thing lol.

@MarioLover92 Dang sounds like it was a ball! Gotta get in on those races with you guys, gotta get @Sunsy on it too! Though, probably gonna stream it up, been a while since I've done a MK8D stream. Plus, wave 2 has got to be right around the corner, with that 711 thing and all!

@Anti-Matter
That would be really cool. I thought switch sports would have had something like that, but I guess that was to much effort for Nintendo.

@roy130390 I'm doing well thanks for asking. Actually been really good as I got to see Trolls World Tour at a local theater. I have it on DVD, but always wanted to see it on the big screen. Also started playing Mario+Rabbids after that trial. Hope things are well with you.

@Snatcher Yeah, a friend recommended XCom awhile back, and haven't gotten around to playing any of the games. Actually, checking Steam, I have two of the XCom games. Must of been a free offer Steam had at one point. Maybe I should check them out sometime.

Sounds like a plan to me. I can't count how many times I start a game, only to restart it because I forgotten about it.

@seaboyluca Indeed. Actually, I used the spoilers in a humorous way in that post. I usually will say it's actual spoilers. For example when I said "Trolls spoilers" in the movie thread. In event someone hasn't seen the movie. Even if something is old, there's a good chance someone hasn't seen or play it.

@tekoii Yeah, a friend showed me the show awhile back. He actually is excited for the Paladins RWBY stuff, he's a big fan of it.

So many pings in this thread....I feel loved!

@MarioLover92 Nope, the game isn't out until the 29th. It'll be here before we know it. It'll be hard for me to ignore Live A Live in the meantime, but there's no way I'd finish the game before XC3 launches. I will warn you - the Xenoblade series as a whole is amazing, but the games aren't short barring Torna (XC2 prequel), which I still put about 30 hours into. Very good stories, but it's so easy to get sidetracked.

I'll mention Origami King in here when I do get around to it. I only picked up the game a couple of months ago and originally intended to play it around then. Didn't happen. (This is where I'm lazy-tagging @BruceCM 's response)

On Thanos: As do I. I wonder about him sometimes.

@NintendoByNature I agree; October is already quite crammed! Unfortunately, it's also the month where I game less due to other commitments.

@bimmy-lee I'm doing pretty well overall, been trying to work through an interesting health issue - occasional maintenance insomnia that doesn't have an explanation 50% of the time. Other than that, all is good. Glad to read that Family Bim is doing well! Crazy that both kids will be in school this fall! Sounds like the basement was quite the project, but you're on the downward slide now. No hurry on those retro area pics, but I'd love to see them when the setup is all done and dusted.

@roy130390 Same to you! I do notice a post of yours once in awhile, but I admit I don't often stray much outside of the General forum and the occasional low-octane comment section these days. I'm definitely not as active as I used to be. Wonder if I'm getting old? XD

@tekoii I'm really enjoying Metroid Dread so far, I just got to the part where Samus discovers that the X parasite is confirmed to still exist. I intentionally steered clear of some of the pre-release content, so I went into the game somewhat blind. I do agree that the E.M.M.I encounters mess with the pacing a bit...especially when the player doesn't hit a checkpoint for awhile. The death robots aside, it's an enjoyable Metroid game and one of the better ones so far IMO.

@Tyranexx yea for sure. Stinks its all jam packed! I usually get more busy come November than October.

Thanos sometimes looks like he’s active on the Xbox. I tried messaging him once there, but no replies so far.

Heh, 1st world problems....
