@Pastellioli I actually completely forgot there was a third sequel to The Matrix released not too long ago lol. I have a "movies I need to watch" list as well, though I admittedly make very little progress on it. I don't often sub to streaming services outside of Spotify and prefer the theater experience. Maybe one day when I have less other things to fill out my spare time (Riiiight....). I appreciate the Conker's Bad Fur Day context link. It isn't a game I've played, though I'd like to one day in some form that doesn't involve buying an Xbox solely for that reason. That scene is pretty on point with the actual film!
Fresh from the theater, Inside Out 2 is indeed a worthy sequel to the first movie. It's very much worth a watch. Especially regarding subtle details related to how the mind actually works and how we can deal with stressful situations. Riley uses some grounding techniques at one point in the film.
Part of the reason I have a movie night is to give myself a short gaming break. It's my main hobby, with reading coming in at a close second.
@Tyranexx I absolutely love Conker’s Bad Fur Day. I 100% it and got all achievements for it on Rare Replay and also completed the remake back in January. I remember having an absolute blast with them both, but they can be a violent and sometimes raunchy, and the original has sometimes janky controls and a bad camera, but I think the writing and the dialogue are the game’s strengths.The Matrix parody is maybe one of my most favorite moments from the game. After seeing it, it just made me so hyped to see the film it was referencing since I could recognize so many moments Conker referenced.
I can understand not wanting to buy an Xbox solely for it. I think that now that they have a Mature 17+ N64 app for the Expansion Pack, the chances of it becoming playable on the Switch are higher. It’s actually one of the few N64 titles that a lot of people here want to see on the Switch! We just have to wait and see.
I heard that getting original N64 cartridges for the game are expensive, like literally around $500 to $700! It’s apparently because of how unique and uncommon the game is with its gameplay design, but that pricing is still so ridiculous and makes it hard to play it officially without having to buy an Xbox.
Gaming and drawing are my main hobbies, but it does feel nice to take a break and watch something. I am thinking of trying to find on Disney+ to watch tonight and then seeing the Matrix sequels sometime later. I also like watching film and show analysis videos for fun, I usually watch them out of boredom but they are really interesting. I find the ones that add in comedic commentary but also detailed and well-thought analyses for the film or show they are talking about to be the most fun. I have also been trying to read more books, I do want to buy this ebook on squirrels in pop culture and media but it’s too pricey, so I’ll have to find something else.
I found a PS1 game video that I have ever played when I was teen long time ago.
It was Tail Concerto.
Aah....
Watching this gameplay bring back my memories when I had PS1 back in 1998.
Actually I found somebody have the original PS1 game in Japan version.
Well, I don't really mind with Japan version as I have ever played the game before with pirated disc so I can finish the game even with Japanese language.
I think I will order that game from my local online shopping website.
@Pastellioli I wouldn’t strictly call it janky or say the camera is bad. I’m well acquainted with games of that time and there’s significantly worse offerings from that time.
Today is the Doraemon movie Nobita's Earth Symphony get aired at my local Cinema XXI.
Luckily, I found the nearest mall from my house to visit Cinema XXI that have schedule of Doraemon movie.
Gotta watch the movie at least two times in a week.
@Ruler-Of-All-Evil OK, after that reply in the Sonic article, I need to know, which wiki are you from? You don't have to put your username but at least narrow it down for me! 😅
IIRC, Smashpedia.
Mkay... Leave a message on my MW there so I can figure out who you are!
@Yousef- I should have said that the controls are a bit slow at times (especially with the shooting portions) and I do think that the camera refuses to move at certain points, though my comment sounded ignorant since I haven’t played enough old games with actually bad controls and cameras. The thing is, in Bad Fur Day, there was this tower portion where you have to climb up and pull a lever as well as get cash but the camera doesn’t like to turn at that point, so I couldn’t see where I was going to land and kept falling off and restarting the tower segment. The camera could be worse, but it sometimes makes parts of the game harder. Sorry if my initial comment was ignorant.
I think I will watch again the Doraemon movie tomorrow as anime movie at XXI usually only last long until 7 days before get replaced by other movies.
The Doraemon movie I watched just now was quite good, not really evoked my emotional feeling but it sure quite hilarious for some scenes.
The music from the fart. 🤣
And another hilarious part was the famous musicians like Mozart, Johann Sebastian Bach, Beethoven, etc became a robot in the movie.
@Pastellioli you don’t have to apologize to me, friend. I’m the last person on earth to get mad at you xd.
Hate to change topics mid-post but me and my dad drove 40 minutes to an arcade. It was long but was worth it. Initially we were gonna bowl since some decent (but far) bowling alleys in Kuwait. However, halfway through I informed my dad that I’ve never played pool before as we switched to that and had fun. He was surprised how good I was at it, even jokingly asked “didn’t you say you never played pool before?” I guess all my skills from playing Yakuza carried into real life. xd
@Yousef- that sounds fun! I wish I could do fun stuff like that with my dad too, unfortunately I don’t see him a lot nowadays. I never played pool before. I have done bowling, but that was maybe a decade ago.

Good night.
It's almost 11.30 pm here.
My belly is stuffed after eating some noodles as my supper.
I need to relax before sleeping by playing maybe some Switch games.
Don’t have much going on. Changed my avatar earlier, but I couldn’t crop the left side correctly without cutting some significant parts off, so some cut off text is visible and it’s bothering me, but oh well. Gonna draw soon, since it’s been maybe since late June since I made a finished picture. I’m currently listening to some Vocaloid music right now and lying in bed, and at the moment I’m thinking about The Matrix and Conker a ton.
@Pastellioli I didn’t notice anything wrong with your avatar and still can’t notice it so you probably did a better job cropping it than you think.
Which vocaloid are you listening to? Mind sharing?
@Yousef- I was listening to a song called CYBERPUNK DEAD BOY by Maiki-P, which was sung by Hatsune Miku. It’s probably one of my favorite songs, it’s so catchy and has an interesting theme and message, and I think the song criticizes the modern music industry and how almost every single artist within the space is pressured to conform to popular and trending song trends with their music to stay relevant, but also telling musical artists to not give up and lose authenticity and genuine expressions with their music. It’s a really heartfelt and important message. I do have a few more Vocaloid songs I’m listening to, but I’d make my response longer lol

I think I will watch again the Doraemon movie today for the second time.
I found the same nearest XXI from my house to watch again with same schedule like yesterday.
@Pastellioli Part of what interests me in Conker's Bad Fur Day is what I do know about the humor - especially in the era it came out in. I didn't have access to a N64 back in the day, and knowing my parents this game wouldn't have come anywhere near me even if I did lol. The jank camera and controls will likely give me a little trouble, but I've made it through Super Mario 64 more than once with similar issues. Even enjoyed it!
Not sure if the exclusive Rare titles will jump to Switch or not. It's not impossible since Microsoft seems more willing to share some of their game library, and I'd consider it more likely since Goldeneye jumped over. Before I would have said chances were slim.
Some great hobbies you have. I draw once in a blue moon, but it's more like small doodles. I usually don't have the time or patience to scrape out what's in my head onto paper to my satisfaction. I'm even worse at digital art despite programming for a living. Most of what I watch is on YouTube, usually game, pop culture, or occasionally movie related. Sometimes I hint down old animated shows I like that are online too.
Currently playing: Pokemon Scarlet DLC, Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury (Switch)
