Good day today. Went over to my friend's house to watch some shows and have lunch, but we did a surprise trip to Target because he needed to get something for his dog. Awesomely, treated myself to another Trolls tin, this time with Barb. I got the Poppy one awhile back.
Hope you're all having a good day. Gonna be quoting the replies I've gotten since mine's rather late again, lol. @Sunsy might like to hear this, mom and I saw Sleeping Beauty tonight. It's one Disney movie I've never seen as a kid, and we both enjoyed it!
I've been doing the same thing as well, picking up amiibos as I see them available in person. One time at GameStop, I found some amiibos that I've been wanting for some time (Sonic and Mega Man), plus the Gold Mario amiibo that I mentioned earlier. That's awesome and lucky you got Rosalina that way. I miss Toys R Us, as well... didn't they go out of business earlier? That's too bad that happened.
Gotcha. Plus I don't want to have to resort to a guide when I play any game, especially early on like with Majora's Mask. I might have to whenever I come back to it... oh well. lol
Awesome, I'm glad to hear you liked the movie. It's been awhile since I've watched that movie. Maybe mom and I could watch it after Halloween. We've been enjoying Halloween specials lately.
Cool finds, IIRC, I got lucky with a Splatoon one in GameStop. I got the Inkling boy when I picked up Splatoon, and the store had it first come first serve with Splatoon amiibo. Yeah, I have two Rosalinas. One being the Super Mario line with the red base, and lucked out on the elusive Smash Bros one.
Yeah, Toys R Us did go out of business. Actually my local one was a "redesigned" store with interactive character displays, when they were closing, they took down the display, surprisingly, they used Xbox Kinects to do the interactions with the characters. They were making a comeback, but it's mainly one store AFAIK, and pop ups in Macy's (I follow them on social media, so I've been seeing what they've tried).
Understandable, this is coming from someone who may use a guide from time to time. Sometimes, guides are fun to look in. Some of the GOG games I've gotten include strategy guides, and one recent one even included an official hint sheet with cheat code. Ah, good old Apogee, actually including a code with their game that works in the registered release, but not the shareware release.
@Kermit1 At least in Canada, you still have the stores AFAIK. I miss it because I love cartoon stuff. The final years of Toys R Us, always loved how two of my favorite things, Trolls and My Little Pony, were together in the same aisle.
Also, I loved their video game section. They always had games other places didn't really sell much of. Found a copy of Shantae Half-Genie Hero and Rodea on Wii U there. Also, the HUGE amiibo selection. I see an occasional amiibo in Target, but it's one or two, or amiibo cards. Toys R Us, it was wall to wall amiibo from what I remember.
I remember getting a Switch charging grip for less thanks to them closing.
@blindsquarel Losing a pet always does, right now me and my mom are alone in the house trying to phone the vet (which is very hard since it's a Saturday).
Knowing my family we'll have a new cat in 2 weeks.
@Kermit1
Hope everything works out ok with the vet.
On a side note, I started hacking my 3ds and I found my cousins homework assignment, and some of the files needed to hack the 3ds, already on the sd card. The weird thing is that I have never taken the card out of the console.

@Kermit1
Maybe, I know I tried to hack my old 2ds in sixth grade but this is a completely different console, so I have no idea how it transferred. Eh, it doesn’t really matter, probably should delete the homework assignment though.

@Sunsy Yep. I'm one that likes to admire nature, but I also like to leave animals well enough alone unless they're in considerable distress...and I have a safe way to handle them. If not, phone calls will be made to those who can. As for that picture:
After I compared native birds, I believe it might be a barred owl. Not entirely sure though. It was originally right by the road - I was driving in an area not far from where I live - and slowed down to see. It flew into the tree before I could get my phone camera fired up.
@MarioLover92 Plus, it was mostly just a fancy GamePad. As useful as that brick is sometimes, it's still rather unwieldy in some situations lol. I didn't get a Wii U until midway through 2015 IIRC. The couple of years before that were rocky for me financially, so I was mostly focusing on the systems I did have. As for cheaters, they do exist in online games. I haven't noticed them too much with the few times I've played MK8D online. I thought I did a couple of times - items missed players - but apparently that's a side effect of lag.
