Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

Whoa, this thread's been busy.

@MarioLover92 Yeah, it was more or less curiosity of what was behind the "2 Player Game" option too. I remember doing the same with Sonic 2. I loved messing with the level select code for that game, had fun jumping to my favorite levels with it.

@Snatcher I would honestly agree. We have multiple storefronts (Steam, GOG, Origin, Epic, etc) instead of one, mods are great (I have a Sonic Adventure 2 mod that replaces all playable characters with Amy... while keeping everyone's abilities, lol), and even free game offers that don't require a subscription, and free online. Also, sales. I got Borderlands 2 for $5, and the classic Strike Commander for $1.50.

Some games are DRM-free. Imagine buying a download, backing it up, and then being able to install and play without phoning home to GOG. Great stuff!

PC gaming is great if you ever decide to give it a try.

@Anti-Matter Afraid I don't have interest in that game, it's cool you like it. Yup it's on Steam, I think I saw the game once while browsing the Steam store.

@TheJGG Ooh, that's really nice aside from the heat and sweat. I can see the pictures make it worth it.

@KateGray Doing great, still pretty happy over something that happened a week ago.

Long cooking, sometimes I like to make meatballs, cook them, then let them simmer in tomato sauce for a few hours so it soaks up the flavor. Mom's side of the family is Italian, so I learned some things about Italian cooking.

Now can't help but wonder if Nintendo Life staff ever peaks in the Nintendo Life cooks thread that @NinChocolate and myself post in to see what we cook.

Tortilla pizza is a quick yummy lunch, all you need is:

a tortilla

pizza sauce

veg. of your choice (I like green peppers on mine)

other topping of choice (like chocolate sauce and marshmallows or pickles)

put it in the oven for 6min on low heat

or microwave for 6min

Now you are done enjoy, I do enjoy a good tortilla pizza from time to time.

@Kermit1 Similarly, I had English Muffin pizzas for lunch yesterday. Sometimes you can't beat the simple classics.

@Sunsy mmm, English Muffins it's been a good while since I've had one of those.

I like pizza-anything. We sometimes buy frozen pizza bagels for that quick fix.

Oh by the way, @KateGray, If you want to use the poblanos without going through all the trouble of doing the whole Nogada sauce and stuffing, you can also just stuff them with only cheese or a simpler meat stuffing, cover them in egg batter, and deep fry them. These regular Chiles Rellenos are staple in our house.

Anaheim/california chiles also work perfectly for stuffing.

@Sunsy Nothing but pluses lol!

@Fizza My partner LOVES making bread, so he sometimes whips up a pizza dough. Usually when we want a pizza though, we do the trashy thing and get a delivery one, because we're impatient

My favourite pizzas that I have made:

• Figs, salami, goat cheese, balsamic glaze
• Old-fashioned pepperoni and anchovy with a sesame seed crust
• Turkey, cranberry, stuffing pizza, with gravy instead of tomato sauce (it's a Thanksgiving pizza!)
• Garlic, mozzarella, balsamic caramelised onions

I like weird pizzas

@KateGray I'm getting hungry just thinking about those options. But the real question then becomes: what about pineapple?

@Fizza yum

pineapple in smoothy

pineapple on pizza

pineapple sauce

pineapple

pineapple upside down cake

pineapple pineapple

the list goes on and on

Is this The Chit Food-Chat Thread now?

It's the pineapple thread

@Eel Finally a use for this

@Sunsy
Well... 😟
I think it's hard for me to find other peoples who have interest with the games that I played currently since I played games with wider variety and mostly the obscure or not so popular games.
I'm already open with the games that I didn't have interest with them before and suddenly I can getting along with the games I choose.
I have finished the games that I'm not really fan of their franchises such as The Adventure of Tintin PS3, Rango PS3, Ben 10 Ultimate Alien: Cosmic Destruction PS3, etc. I played them not because I like with their looking or something, but I could follow the gameplay model that I quickly grasped as I played the games so it built my other experiences from obscure games.

I don't know what other games do you like to play even for the upcoming games as you don't really have interest with a lot of upcoming games that I mostly played such as Epic Chef, Dodgeball Academia, Youtubers Life 2, Horse Club Adventures, etc. And every time I want to discuss with the games I played currently, nobody want to talk with me. Nobody. 😟

I rarely like the well known or famous games like Sonic as I cannot play Sonic games with very high speed, it's not my forte after played some levels. I don't even care with games like zelda, xenoblade, metroid, (sorry if I keep repeat the games I don't like) as I don't have interest with them and I felt really annoyed at some points to see peoples keep discussing those games that I never like.

Recently I have curiosity with Kirby games on Switch and I have a plan to get them quickly as I realized Kirby games are quickly sold and rarely get restock in my country as fewer fans like Kirby games than Mario games.
I'm not really hyped with Mario games despite I like to buy some of their games as my engagement level with Mario games is pretty low so I tend to play Mario games slowly or infrequently and usually taking long time to finish the games except some of Mario games I finished quickly like Paper Mario Sticker Star 3DS, Super Mario Odyssey Switch (around 2 weeks to finish the games).
Also, I'm not really interested to talk a lot of Mario games as from my point of view, a lot of Mario games are still too safe or pretty much same all the time as I compared with other games like Ratchet & Clank, they have more diversity. Maybe because I prefer the games that have more personality rather than the games that still same all the time. I personally want to see Mario can talk normally like other games but I found a lot of Mario fans hate the idea and want to see Mario never talk (What's wrong to have Mario with more personality?)
Or maybe some of Nintendo fans very hard to open with new ideas and mostly refuse to embrace new ideas and some changes. And this thing sometimes really bothering me as I want to see some different things but majority peoples refuse to accept new ideas.

Btw, can you mention the cartoonish games do you like to play (including the upcoming games) because I don't know what kind of games you like to play and matched with my interest ?
I just only found you mentioned about My Little Pony and Sonic games that I also have same interest about, I don't know the other games you like to play also since you tend to talk with other users but almost never talk to me since my gaming interest mostly different and you don't have much interest to getting know with the games I currently played.

I don't know which user should I talk to about the games I have interest to play and discuss. 😔

@Fizza My secret is that my favourite pizza topping is BBQ sauce and pineapple. I am not ashamed, because everyone that has given it a try has LOVED it. I call it the Kate Special.

@KateGray I call that lunch

@Anti-Matter I understand how you feel, I really enjoy a lot of games people don't really like (skylanders, Lego Worlds and a few others). I agree with what you said about Mario I'd love to see him talk.

@Kermit1 @Eel @KateGray I'm so disappointed in all of you. 'Tis sacrilege to have pineapple on pizza I tell you: SACRILEGE!

@Kermit1
About Skylanders, used to be I have no interest at all with Skylanders games until in year 2021 as I keep collecting PS3 games, I tried to expand with the games I have never played before but still following my gaming rules so I dared myself to try Skylanders games from Spyro's Adventures and Swap Force on PS3 and they were pretty good in term of gameplay.
So I continued to get all Skylanders games I can get from my country and I have collected almost every Skylanders games, just only need Skylanders Giants on PS3 and the portal for Trap Team, then my Skylanders games are complete. (From Spyro's Adventure to Imaginators. Imaginators was the rarest and the hardest to find).

Oh, I have some interest with Frog games such as Frogger games on PS2 & NDS, Time on Frog Island (upcoming games on multi console machines) despite I don't have the games yet but I will try to get Time on Frog Island on PS5 version.

The Frogger games on PS2 era were quite interesting, but only one Frogger game I found have different genre (3D platformer style) instead of Frogger style platformer by hopping one step for each movement. These are the gameplay of Frogger games with two different styles.

Psst...
Don't tell anybody if I played 3DS games during my sleeping time at 2 am. 🤫

@Fizza
Hawaiian pizza is a pizza originating in Canada, and is traditionally topped with pineapple, tomato sauce, cheese, and either ham or bacon.

I'm super hungry now.

@Anti-Matter I need to play one of those NDS Frogger games, I have no excuse now with my ** card.
