@MarioLover92 Yeah, I made it through those classes...somehow. For the college course, I ended up in that class with the head of the radio & communications department; since it was required for many degrees, there were several instructors who taught it. He was a hard grader, but in hindsight that was very good for me. With acting, I can do some female characters and pass as a guy in some cases. My voice is naturally lower.

Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection has a lot of bonus content IIRC. I don't really need it per se, but those games were a part of my childhood. I enjoyed both them and the anime, though I'm still a bit miffed that they stopped localizing the anime after a point; I didn't find that out until a few years ago, but that explained why things seemed to end so suddenly. I probably won't take much advantage of the multiplayer unless I think I have a VERY GOOD chipset. XD

Gotcha... that does sound like a hard class for sure. Especially with that instructor you've had. I've had some instructors who were tough graders as well... I think everyone's had teachers/professors like that. Good to hear that ended up being good for you, it does encourage us to do better in a way. It's why I cared a lot about my grades back in my school days. That's cool, I think my real voice is somewhere around the middle, maybe just a tiny bit higher than that. On a side note, I'm pretty good at talking like Mario.

I did play quite a lot of the Mega Man Battle Network games back then as well. Admittedly, I didn't see much of the anime, but I did see bits and pieces of it. Back when that originally aired, I was more into Sonic, so I played the games and watched Sonic X each Saturday when that came out on Fox Box. I got into Mega Man a few years later. They stopped localizing NT Warrior, huh? I think I recall hearing something like that, I know it continued in Japan where they had episodes based on Battle Network 6's story. Yeah, I'd probably need a good battle chip deck before I even attempt the online as well, lol.

I can't stop thinking about the movie, this Friday, I get to see it again. Yeah, also, you have to realize, these are people who went out of their way to see a movie early too. November 4th is the anniversary of the series, and that's the day of early access to the movie was. I wouldn't be surprised if the theater was filled with Trolls fans. Yes, I did applaud as well. Me too, I posted some thoughts in the Mario Kart thread, but Bowser's Castle 3 was a cool remix of the classic track.

Yeah, I had at least the first game in the series, I think my brother had the third one. It was fun to think Rare was trying to make a Donkey Kong Country for the Game Boy in a way. The levels were way different, but the concept was similar. I missed out getting them on the 3DS eShop, but hoping they show up on NSO. Which makes me wonder, I wonder if the graphics will glitch if the screen is set to color mode. I remember putting Donkey Kong Land into a Game Boy Color, and the sprites looked a bit glitchy IIRC, but fine in a black and white Game Boy.

Same situation here, when they announced they brought Frozen back, I wanted to go, only to find out it was several towns away. Looks like Frozen II is my only Frozen theater experience. Wish should be everywhere this November.

One day, hopefully. I would love to see the store myself and buy something there I can't get elsewhere.

You'll like who's on my profile picture this time, Sunsy. Hooray for you, have fun seeing it again! That's awesome to hear, I did see there's a lot of folks who do like Trolls as well... despite what some YouTubers suggest, lol. I've seen an ad/trailer for Trolls Band Together on Facebook, and there was nothing but likes/loves on there. Great to hear you've applauded, too. Right now, the movie I'm most looking forward to seeing is Wish... yep, I'm still in a Disney mood! I may even give Trolls a shot at some point, as well, since I know you're a Trolls lover.

SNES Bowser's Castle 3 is a solid course for sure. It's pretty faithful to the original course and I especially love that rock/metal cover of its music. Did you know that the music is a remix of the Bowser battle theme from Super Mario World?

That's cool. It is pretty admirable for Rare to try to bring over these prerendered graphics to the Game Boy, of all things, and for the most part it worked out pretty well. Gotcha, hopefully they'll show up on NSO, yeah... I would especially love to see more Game Boy Advance games come to NSO, and I say that as someone who has the expansion pack. More original Game Boy games would be cool as well, of course. Huh, I see... I think some GB games look somewhat off when played on a Game Boy Color, so that's probably normal. Just a quirk with the GBC itself, I guess.

Ouch... too bad for both of us. I also really wanted to see the original Beauty and the Beast in my local theater... but they didn't have it, and the closest theater that had it was around 3 hours away from where I live. It's especially heartbreaking for me because that's my favorite Disney movie! Yeah, Frozen II was the only time I saw Anna and co. on the silver screen, too.

I gave you a mention at the artist thread... been thinking about how I'd like to make my next drawing.

@blindsquirrel that's Karl, he's good, SomeOrdinary uploaded a video as well and he's pretty good, in fact they both worked together on this.

Worst part is that when asked about it on live stream Jirard said he just had to take the L on this one. Like he lied about something in a video game, not that he runs a fraud charity.

@Kermit1
He had a really slow speed run picking a benefactor. Apparently it took 9 years, so he needs to get that time down.

@blindsquirrel he's going for that 10-year speed run...

Jokes aside, kind of weird to have not chosen one by now, 9 years is a very long time to pick anything let alone a benefactor.

I have slow-processing-speed and that's slow even for me.

@Kermit1 @blindsquirrel meanwhile, even if that’s the full honest truth, the fact is that is 9 years worth of research or medical attention the money could’ve helped with, had it actually been sent to a charity.

Like, imagine donating food to a shelter after a disaster, only to find out they’re actually denying to feed anyone, and they say: “oh don’t worry, it’s all in the fridge, we’re just waiting for someone who looks like they are really REALLY hungry to come by! In the meanwhile, please donate more.”

@Eel
What’s even worse is that he’s using his moms name as a way to get sympathy for his “charity.”
Like, don’t use your dead moms name as a way to make some cash, especially in this manner.

I wonder if this will open him up to some potential lawsuits?

@Eel @Kermit1 @blindsquirrel

Welcome to the dark reality of Charities and Foundations. They sound nice, like "we are just gathering money to help people" but in reality, they are the worst dens of money laundering and scams. They are actually under bigger scrutiny than most financial institutions (which are openly made for financial profit)

@Rambler well I'm not saying that all of them are like that, it's mostly that in legal and financial terms, Charities and Foundations are inherently sus because they were widely used for illegal purposes in the past

@Sunsy Yeah, gathering herbs in Oregon Trail III was another way to collect food besides X pounds of meat. It wasn't nearly as easy as hunting, though I did get to a point in those games where I intentionally tried to avoid shooting buffalo since I was aware they historically came close to extinction due to that time period.
Yeah, I normally wouldn't get games outside of birthdays and Christmas back in the day. I learned to save almost to a fault at least, which is important. Though I do think I should've got gradual increases...that rarely happened sadly. I am looking forward to Planet Coaster, though when I actually get to it is a very loose guess.

Neat, I do remember the hunting mini-game in the other two Oregon Trail, IIRC, I almost never did them. For some reason with the Mac version of the first game, I just always had this trick to finishing the game.

Yeah, it wasn't a common occurrence when I was younger, or sometimes an odd gift. I remember getting Donkey Kong 64 for Easter one year instead of a basket. Weird, but cool surprise. That was more of an oddity, it didn't happen again.

It's Peach! Yeah, many do like Trolls. I'll never understand why cartoon and movie guys on YouTube hate the movies. YouTube and Twitter is like the only places I've seen hate towards Trolls, other places, people are cool with it or if they don't like it, they don't go to extreme I've seen those on YouTube go. I think you'd like the movie. Trolls does start out silly and happy, but as the movie goes on, there's a lot of heart to it. It's hard to say without spoiling the movie. If you have Netflix, the first Trolls movie happens to be on there right now. Also with Christmas coming up, I think you might like Trolls Holiday In Harmony, the second holiday short. It has more in common with Christmas than the first Trolls Holiday.

Yeah I was surprised at how the whole course looked and the music was great. That I do know, I remember hearing it when finally reaching Bowser. Could never beat him because kid me at the time had no idea how to toss items upwards, lol. Adult me now knows how to do that.

Yeah, it was impressive given Game Boy only had four shades of grey. I still haven't gotten the expansion pack, I'm still waiting to see what else appears on the service before upgrading. Right now a lot of the GBA games I have I can play on Wii U or my original GBA. It wasn't the color looking somewhat off, it was more like the sprites had some visual glitches to them when played on a GBC. It's hard to describe unless you see it. It looks like the character sprites, have odd pixels on them that weren't present when playing on an old B&W Game Boy.

I would have loved to see Beauty and the Beast in a theater. For some reason, it was shown at an AMC like couple towns away, vs. my local one that's like 10 minutes away. I went to Trolls Band Together early access at that theater, while Frozen and Beauty and the Beast were like an hour away. I know this because I use to pass that theater on the way to school when I was a teen, and even went there on a school trip a few times (saw Disney's Dinosaur and Radio with my school).

I saw, it sounds like a cute idea to me.
