I'm dying it's so hot here

@EllaTheKawaiiNeko @Professor_Plumber @blindsquarel @EaglyPurahfan WE WIN THESE!!! THIS IS HUGE!!! and Anthony is returning and it will be like the old days with normal sketches with just the two of them!

@Professor_Plumber they will be only on the side channels, the main channel from now on will only be Ian and Anthony like the good ol' days.

@Owl1 What's happening?

@EllaTheKawaiiNeko some dudes bought back their channel after needing to sell the right to keep it afloat.

I beat TOTK. Kinda sad that it is over ( hopefully DLC comes soon), but probably a top 3 game in my book.

While I'm thrilled there's a Nintendo Direct tomorrow, the timing is very unfortunate; I usually have a lot going on at work around then. I'll likely end up turning on the livestream, pausing it at a certain point, then going back and watching/listening "live" when I get the chance.

@Sunsy I've disabled most news notifications on my phone since those can get quite spammy and drain the battery faster. I usually actively look through it both through my Google news feed and through what I consider neutral (well, mostly) news sources. Such as Reuters and AP News. BBC for some world-related stuff. I'll look at an article or two on other major news sites too sometimes, though I try to go into those with an objective eye. Bias is a touchy subject, especially in today's world....

@MarioLover92 I'm currently 90+ hours into TotK now, probably closer to 95 at this point. Hoping to get a couple hours in this evening, but we'll see. I'm completely done with the Eldin region for now - thanks for the luck, the second dungeon went great - and am in East Necluda, heading towards Hateno Village (and hopefully the nearby Sheikah tower). I've accepted the real possibility that I won't finish by my trip, but at least I'll have earned a break! XD I'll probably loop back to the northeastern region after that (Wanna visit Tarrey Town), then onto the region with Zora's Domain. Best of luck with Splatoon 3 as well.

Definitely surprised Sega hasn't re-released some of the other celebrated Sonic titles yet, though from the outside some of the fanbase can be...a bit volatile. Not as bad as Pokemon though. Is it sad I have a Game Gear game on the 3DS VC (Shining Force: The Sword of Hajya) that I played and enjoyed, yet I forget that handheld console exists half the time?

@blindsquarel you beat it before me lol... Was the ending good like I've been hearing?

@Owl1
It was a good ending. Definitely way better than BOTW.

@blindsquarel good. I just hope the final quest box gets a complete mark, unlike BOTW.

@Owl1
I think it does, the marker comes up after you beat Ganon. Although I can’t say for certain since I didn’t load up the game again after I beat it.

@Professor_Plumber
Just in time for DLC to drag us back in.

@Professor_Plumber
Backlogs aren’t a thing for me, I only play Zelda games.

( kinda true though, I play them a lot.)

@Professor_Plumber and in time for a Nintendo Direct #Marketing... Also that Titanic 2 joke I made will age like milk.

@blindsquarel DLC...

I got The Beatles Rock Band for Wii coming in the mail in a few weeks, and my backlog continues to grow. I still need to play DQ 11.

Yep, there's gonna be a Nintendo Direct tomorrow! Hopefully we'll see some good game announcements. As my boy Mario would say... let's-a go!

@Tyranexx I've gotten 130 hours into TotK as of this post - once I get a tad burnt out from Splatoon 3, I'll likely head back to Hyrule. I do want to finish that game anyway, hopefully within this year. That's awesome your second dungeon went great. Ah gotcha, it's ok. Everyone deserves a break sooner or later, and you've got your trip to look forward to. Thanks! There is actually plenty of time before Splatoon 3's current season ends, actually - according to the time frame that's in the game itself, it'll end on the last day of August. So plenty of time to Nintendo-ify my locker, lol.

I'm having fun with the game to begin with anyway, and even tried out one of the new weapons that they've added, which is the Super Scope, or as it's called in the game, the S-Blast '92. It's a blaster, so its firing rate is pretty slow, but it's so satisfying to splat opponents with it. I had to get it since the SNES is one of my favorite consoles. You may remember that it was the SNES's light gun peripheral, and also made its way to Super Smash Bros. as an item.

Oh my goodness, I know how bad some of the Sonic fanbase has gotten. I've seen the Pokemon fanbase as well, both seem a tad...ungrateful. I'm not sure if I wanna talk more about them, honestly - wanna keep things as positive as I can, lol. Nah, I don't think that's sad. I haven't played much of the Game Gear's library, outside of the Sonic games anyway. I got to play those via Sonic Adventure DX and various compilations.

As Chris Pratt would say, “it’s a me. A Mario.”

@Professor_Plumber I just read some "science geeks" (not as bad as it sounds) theory posts and at this point, they are probably dead in one of many ways, from what some of them were saying it seems like they'll be gone Thursday morning for sure because of how much oxygen they have. I'll leave it at that, best wishes to the families.

trigger warning

@Professor_Plumber hopefully we are all wrong.

@Professor_Plumber
I may play Gotham Knights again before the DLC releases ( it will be revealed tomorrow, I guarantee!) kinda in a DC kick right now.

@Owl1
My backlog will increase soon. I won $200 at a Rodeo this past weekend and I get my paycheck from work soon. Right in time for the steam sale coming up.
