Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

I'm starting the first chapter of "Kid Icarus: Uprising", wish me luck!

Does anyone else have issues with their notifications taking them to the most random places in a topic? Honestly it's pretty annoying.

@Eagly_lmtd_xmasskin NGL, your username changes make it interesting to respond to you on the fly. XD At least I'm entertained. Honestly it's more to do with I don't pick up hardware when it first releases - the inevitable supply/demand issues aside - since I prefer to give companies time to iron out any potential crazy hardware or software issues first. Beta testing is a thing, usually a ton with many companies. But you cannot account for every and all scenarios once a product is in customers' hands. This is something I run into with my own job, which means bug fixes.

Gotcha, I'll stay away from the Mwamba S Rank cutscene. I definitely, positively, seriously won't search for it. (I know you jest with the other games, but TBH I'd probably jump at both...but wait a bit for the Mario Odyssey 2 sequel if that will indeed be a thing....)

@MarioLover92 Thanks! Honestly I did that certificate for an extra year after getting my 2 year programming degree since I wasn't fully sure if I wanted to go the IT route; I was considering a couple paths related to veterinary. I think I would've liked the challenge of those C++ courses...especially since I'm half wanting to mess with the language on my own again. I'd have to start almost from the beginning since it's been so long though. It wasn't quite that an advanced animation class, more creating and interacting with animations in Maya (At the time at least, you had to pay for this software; I'm not sure if the college had educational versions or if they actually paid for the licenses). We were exposed to Blender but didn't spend much time in it. This was after I left, but I do think one of the classes in the course started experimenting with VR and green screens. I probably watched The Lion King a ton of times...same with many other Disney movies lol. I sorta wish I still had "The Horse King" drawings, but those are lost to time lol. I also really liked 101 Dalmations, and it doesn't surprise me if it was an earlier Disney movie for you; I believe it originally released around 1960ish? Edit: early 1961.

Years down the line if my now-infant nephew gets into Minecraft or something similar, I'd at least try the games out and try to play with him. XD I loved the BeanBean Kingdom in Superstar Saga, and Peach's messed-up words in general lol. Partners In Time was wonderfully dark, but some of the combat with the babies and a couple of sections when they split up felt forced. Still a pretty fun game though, even if I did run into a softlock glitch earlier on; I was on a plane at the time too, so I couldn't exactly look up what was wrong. Thankfully a reload fixed everything.

I'd half like to go back to Fire Emblem Heroes if I'm on a trip sometime, just for something to mess around with. I did play it for a bit and just got bored with the proceedings. I stay away from anything Animal Crossing, not because I don't think I'll like it....I'm more concerned about being sucked in and becoming obsessive with my town/island/whatever and feeling obligated to check things all the time. I honestly fail to see how many racing games with a view/format like Mario Kart would translate very well onto mobile devices, but then again I don't touch the genre much outside of MK and a couple old arcade racers I'm nostalgic for. I'm sure there will be a new main series Mario Kart eventually, but MK8D's success tells me that probably won't really happen for a little while yet. Nintendo is full of surprises though!

Posting a fake logo everday till’ Christmas - Day 5

Had some fun making this one
Tour is (sadly) deemed MK9 by Nintendo, so the next entry is Mario Kart 10.

@DiamondCore Elon strikes again!

@IceDomino oh it seems you have it all plannex out! Is this your first playthrough?

@Moffo yes I have! It's a great game. I take it you are a fan as well?

@TeaCatherine doing opposite of what you were doing? Better in video game than in real life dont worry you'll get through it, I believe in you

@Moffo 2 years sounds like such a long time, and then I realize it was in 2021, which I still think of as of future.

Time is a dreadful foe indeed.

Ive been waiting for chapter 3 of deltarune for some time now, I still remember that cliffhanger.

@Princess_Lilly Now I'm drinking too much water, my stomach hurts everyday now
Thy doesn't understand

@EllaTheQueen6 Careful you don't die of overhydration.

@TeaCatherine I won't
Also I finally got my brother's Christmas present, all of the Back to The Future movies on DVD

@EllaTheQueen6 Ah, a classic. Yeah, I've got presents for all my siblings but I still need to get my brother a birthday present. Probably just gonna get him something on the Switch eshop.

Hello.

@Princess_Lilly Yeah, but I already know what happens at the end. I'm just trying to get the "play 50 Far Away matches" before the service shuts down in spring.

@DiamondCore Bro did you just make a rip-off Celeste

@EllaTheQueen6 no, the game functions completely differently from Celeste, the only real similarity is the theming, and Celeste doesn’t own the concept of climbing a mountain

@EllaTheQueen6 Thou does the right thing. Thine liver shall thank you.

@Moffo berdly the true hero?

sure but at the same time, they are monsters who already murdered 6 children and don't hesitate for a moment before attacking the 7th.

@IceDomino before what shuts down in spring? Smash Ultimate?!

@CaleBoi25 hello!

Oh, also, y'all, this is my last week before Christmas break, so Friday will be my last day here until early January.

@Princess_Lilly No, Smash Ultimate will still be sticking around. I think he was talking about how the 3DS and Wii U's online will be shut down next spring since he said that he's been playing Kid Icarus: Uprising.

@EllaTheQueen6 noted, you'll be first in queue for Christmas wishes.

Also, if it was a couple years ago, I'd defend Celeste with all my might, but now I can't really care about it after what the developers said

@MarioLover92 ooooh, ok that makes sense

@Princess_Lilly Yeah. I hope you're doing well, by the way!

@MarioLover92 same! What's up, anything nice happened lately?
