Happy Halloween! For Halloween, I'm going to be wearing a Troll wig that looks like Poppy's hair and headband.
Been busy lately. Mostly between chores, errands, and playing games (Vampire Survivors and Monster Bash have been my Halloween gaming treats this year). Then Nintendo made their own Spotify, lol. Time to catch up.
@Sunsy I did kind of download a few Sonic games on my phone in the past, but the only one I have right now is Sonic CD. I’ll probably try to download a few more Sonic mobile games to build up some hype for the third Sonic movie. The release for the film is nearing slowly but Iget excited just thinking about it.
Yeah, a few years before the Talking Tom and Friends show with Hank, there was an older, more short-lived Talking Tom show, which was actually called Talking Friends and ran for one season and 10 episodes. I am reading a bit on the show’s production, and it seemed to have been animated and made by another studio rather than Disney themselves, so they likely were distributors on that show and acquired the rights for it. The show had a different voice cast and setting compared to Talking Tom and Friends. Now looking at the voice cast for that one, I am a bit surprised they did get well-known voice talents like Tom Kenny in that one.
I remember a few moments from the show, and it was for sure way more memorable than Talking Friends, but a lot of the memorable moments from Talking Tom and Friends were from Ginger and Hank; a few of Ginger’s lines did make me laugh a bit when I was watching it back then. The show was a YouTube web series, but I remember that Netflix had the first two seasons of the show on there once, but I kind of didn’t see a reason why they put it on there since all seasons of the show are free to watch on the official YouTube channel. I can remember how fast they were with releasing episodes, but they slowed down with episode releases later on and apparently the show didn’t get a proper conclusion and appears to have abruptly stopped.
I also don’t visit Time Extension a ton compared to Nintendo Life and Pure Xbox, probably because Time Extension isn’t super popular compared to NL and it’s hard to start conversations with people on there because of how it has a small amount of users, but I do occasionally read articles on that site for Rare articles, especially the ones that are on Conker. I think you can find the specific Twelve Tales article if you look for a tag saying “Rare” on an article, but you can look through archives for March 2023 articles. I can remember that Time Extension and Nintendo Life have made articles on info on Pocket Tales and cancelled Conker games, and I always found the info on them really interesting. The information on the cancelled Bad Fur Day sequel is probably my favorite because of the crazy storyline they wrote for it and the ideas they had planned to use for the gameplay. There also was a cancelled spin-off prequel called Conker: Gettin’ Medieval that sounded interesting from its premise and the name alone, but I believe that there is not much info on it besides the fact that it was going to star a different protagonist and a different cast of characters and was a prequel to the story in Live and Reloaded’s multiplayer mode. I honestly would have loved to see more info on that game. Unseen64 doesn’t have an article on it!
The director of Bad Fur Day usually talks about some cancelled Conker games online and the ideas he had for them, and I once read an article here on NL where he shared old drawings and doodles he made of Conker, and in those I remember he resembled an actual real life red squirrel and wore overalls. It was really cool to see how he was originally supposed to look, but because the director doesn’t have Instagram and only posts on Twitter/X and how you can’t view tweets or accounts on the site unless you make an account, I can only see the scrapped game info he shares via embedded posts and links NL has on articles and sites like Unseen64, and he probably has posted more stuff that I haven’t seen or heard of, so it’s very hard to see if he has shared more game info.
Excellent choice, Sonic CD is a great game. One of my favorites too. If you'd like, I'd like to recommend the mobile versions of Sonic 1 and 2. They're actually enhanced ports that adds so much to each game. Like the ability to play as Tails and Knuckles, even Sonic 2 actually has Hidden Palace Zone, accessible via falling in a pit in Mystic Cave Zone.
Oh cool, I have a feeling from the sounds of it Disney just aired the show in some countries. I don't recall seeing the Disney name attached to it when I watched it on YouTube. Again, I think Bluey is an example of a show licensed to Disney, but not made by Disney. That's what's coming to mind.
I kind of feel the same way whenever I see a show on streaming also on YouTube since YouTube is free. The one episode I remember, they were having a mobile gaming tournament of sorts, and Ginger ended up winning, all because Ginger had quick hands from being younger than the others, lol.
Yeah, I think everyone just goes to the sites with the busiest forums. The few times I usually visit Time Extension it's for any article they linked on the homepage here. Always an interesting read whenever I see their articles. Oh wow, I don't recall ever seeing the article about Conker. That's one I'd be interested in reading having played Pocket Tales and remembering all the old Conker stuff I saw in magazines.
That's really cool, probably will be a miss with me. I stopped using Twitter, and don't want to sign up to view tweets on a public (that's the keyword, public) profile. I use Instagram and I've been happy with that. Shame really since looking at a public profile without signing up was a feature of Twitter. It still cool the director shares all sorts of unused stuff on the Conker games.
@Sunsy That...is a very long time to have the flu. Were any reasons given as to why you had it so long? I am glad you recovered at any rate. I'd say the sickest I've ever been was when I had pneumonia in 8th grade. It was over Christmas break - thankfully after the holiday - and MAN did I have some crazy dreams. That was when I received my OG phat DS for Christmas. Let me tell ya, WarioWare: Touched! can lead to some pretty insane fever dreams lol.
I like some of the horror aspects. It depends on what it is. I'm way more attracted to classic monsters than all the ghost and serial killer stuff. I actually find stuff like Friday the 13th and Freddy Kreuger boring since I usually call what happens lol. It's more that I get a kick out of improv acting and scaring people. It's on them; they paid for it. XD There are rules that we and the guests have to follow however. If they're broken, someone gets tossed out. I haven't played many true horror games since many tend to be shooters, which aren't my cup of tea. I have played some House of the Dead and the campy Typing of the Dead, and I did try the demo for Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water back on the Wii U. I think I prefer atmospheric horror that makes one think, rather than blasting everything with a gun.
That is still a mystery to me to this day. I do remember being stuck at home, visiting doctors a lot, and I even played a lot of Dreamcast when I couldn't rest. Though, mom did surprise me with a Pokemon shirt once I got better, so there was that too.
Cool, honestly I don't mind some horror inspired themes. In the past, I've watched Monster High movies with my mom (based off a doll line, where every character is inspired by a monster, it's a quite creative). Wow, I remember a PC demo to Typing of the Dead. Speaking of horror games, I've been playing Monster Bash, a classic horror-themed platformer on PC, you play as a kid trying to save the world's pets from monsters. I also just bought Vampire Survivors after that Trial NSO has. Not much of a new game to me, I have it on PC too. I did want it on Switch. Those two have been my Halloween games, though going to probably play Vampire Survivors after Halloween. It's been a good while since I bought a new game, and Doom + Doom II was more of a free update since I had the Doom games.

@Sunsy I can remember playing the mobile port of Sonic 2, but I deleted it off my phone for some reason. I’ll play those soon, cuz I have a couple of other games on an imaginary gaming backlog I made in my head lol, plus I really do want to play more Sonic games since the third film coming up in almost just a month. I have heard that Sonic X Shadow Generations was good, maybe I could buy and try it out later after it’s release.
I have maybe three other games I intend on playing alongside the first two mobile Sonic games, that being Yo-kai Watch 2: Fleshy Souls on the 3DS, and I intend on replaying Banjo-Tooie on the Xbox, as well as trying to finish Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts. I did actually start Yo-kai Watch maybe a month ago, but I haven’t touched it in a few weeks. I was supposed to replay Tooie back in September, but wasn’t in the mood for it at the time, and I’ve procrastinated on progressing through Nuts and Bolts. For that one, I actually started it last year in March, but dropped it. I intended to complete it back in July or August, but upon replaying it, I got confused over where to go and what to do because I hadn’t touched it in a while, and there are so many playthrough videos for it but I am having a hard time finding the parts I got stuck on, so I’ll probably just start a new save and actually use playthroughs as I play. The game being more of a vehicle builder game than an actual platformer is also why I dropped it quickly initially.
I think I do maybe remember the mobile game tournament episode, there are some episodes I did forget in the show but there were quite a few that I still remember. I remember an episode where Tom made a taco spaghetti burger food combination (if I am remembering correctly) and Ben created an app to find nearby bathrooms, but everyone was all about the food and the garage turned into a restaurant, but their customers started to get sick from the food (and the fact that Ginger gave them toilet water as a beverage) and it turned out that the bathroom app was useful all along. Another well known one for me was an episode where Jeremy got everyone sick and they made it look like a zombie apocalypse and Ben literally falling in love with the moon. A lot of the plots in the show were random, but in a good and entertaining way from how some of them were hilariously ridiculous, though I think a few of the episodes did have plots that were dramatic and were a bit serious, mainly talking about the final few episodes of seasons 1-4.
Yeah, I think that this site has sometimes linked articles to Time Extension, and I absolutely enjoy the Rare articles on that site, but I tend to gravitate toward it less because there is only a small bit of users that actively participate in the comments and forums, though, there were a few times where there were a lot of more comments, mainly from poll articles that asked for users’ opinions on gaming subjects or on stuff like game achievements. Pure Xbox is sometimes the same, but I have had more conversations going on there and the comment sections are more populated there. I think that Nintendo Life and Push Square are the most popular out of the four.
I really wanted to find if the game director had an Instagram so that I could follow him and see what unused game info and projects he talks about. I don’t really want to make an account on there just so I can view stuff, plus I’ve seen how bad some people on Twitter tend to act compared to other social media platforms. I did use it before, but only on the web as a guest, and I stopped using it when they started to make it a requirement to make an account just to view accounts and tweets. I really wanted to see the stuff the director tweets about since some wiki articles I read on the Conker games usually don’t have any info on cancelled games and unused ideas, but I think that’s also because the Conker wikis aren’t updated regularly.

Happy first day of November everyone! I wonder how everyone’s Halloween went.
For me, I don’t celebrate Halloween, so me and my family just stayed home. I was considering buying candy that I could give out to trick-or-treaters, but there was no one trick-or-treating where we were, so there was no point in buying candy anyway. A bit glad I didn’t buy candy, since I shoved so much sugary garbage and stuff down my stomach throughout most of October, and if we had leftover candies, I’d have to eat them all until they run out, and I already decided to make a challenge to avoid eating processed sugary foods for most of November since I have a really bad sweet tooth.
Also, I found out that Doja Cat dressed as that
sunflower lady from Conker’s Bad Fur Day for Halloween, which was certainly a surprise for me. Given that game is kind of obscure and niche (plus it didn’t sell well upon release) I wasn’t expecting a popular celebrity to dress up as a character from there! It’s definitely one of my favorite games (though more so writing and story-wise) and it makes me happy when people acknowledge it
@CaleBoi25 I get so excited when a new month starts. I’m really happy it’s November, also because December is a month away now! I find December to be the month for a ton of fun stuff, also because everyone has more free time and can do more fun stuff than ever before! I’m looking forward to Christmas, unsurprisingly.
@Pastellioli
October is my month as my birthday is one day before Halloween so I posted two set of my hand drawing pictures on my birthday and on 31 October as celebration of October month.
Also, I posted funny screenshots of ACNH with Halloween theme on Animal Crossing New Horizons thread.
@Pastellioli Hopefully I'll get to your post this weekend. I do want to say, my Halloween was good. I wore a Trolls wig on my head all day, lol. I don't get trick-or-treaters where I live, so I spent part of the day playing Vampire Survivors and Monster Bash (why not, they fit the Halloween mood).
@Anti-Matter Wishing you a belated happy birthday!

Hope you're all doing well. Been busy with some real life stuff lately, as usual. Unfortunately I accidentally burned myself from a hot surface earlier... that seriously hurt when that happened. Had to use cold water and ice packs right away. It is healing now though, and there's no pain anymore, so that's good. It was a coffee warmer if you're curious. As for my Halloween, it was decent. I saw Nightmare Before Christmas as a way to celebrate, although I still didn't get any trick-or-treaters.
Also saw that Xenoblade Chronicles X is finally coming to the Switch, though I'm not in a rush to get it. Maybe one day so I can play online with some friends I've made here. Also downloaded Nintendo's music app, which I do like. It could use more game soundtracks and extended music, but it is pretty good overall.
@Tyranexx Yeah anytime, glad things are settling down now. On my passion project, thanks. It's been a bit of time since I last worked on it, so I'd like to change that as soon as I can. But it's been going well. Things have also been a bit crazy for me, lol. Oh gotcha, I did see in your signature that you're still playing Echoes of Wisdom. As mentioned before, I'm done with the game. Been playing Banjo-Tooie since it came out on NSO's expansion pack, as well as Super Mario Party Jamboree. For the latter game, in addition to the main party mode, I love the Koopathlon mode. It's a mode where you'd race against 19 other players, except you race by playing minigames and collecting as many coins as you can. It's a ton of fun. Been also playing through its story mode.
All righty. Thanks for the tip. I definitely have my limits too, I'm sensitive with how fast things go. I do like some speed, but nothing overly fast. Merry-go-rounds hit that sweet spot for me, I love to ride them. If I ever do go on a roller coaster again, I will definitely need a break afterward, lol.
Ah gotcha, there are some clock designs you don't like too much, huh? The one I did see did look cute to me. I love cats as well. Good to see that kitten you mentioned got a new home.
I still remember Cosmic Mario's laugh too, haha. I haven't got much plushies in recent years either.
@Sunsy Me too, glad the Satellaview tracks made it to F-Zero 99. I did not expect Nintendo to bring them over, but here we are, haha. I know there are five remaining - three Forest tracks and two Metal Fort tracks - which haven't been preserved until recently. Looks like the F-Zero series has a brighter future now, which is great to see as a lifelong fan.
Glad to hear your cold got better as quickly as it did. That's cool, that's a good way to relax, I found myself putting on videos in the background on occasion. I am getting better as well, though in my case it was from a nasty burn that I mentioned earlier in this post.
That reminds me, I kinda miss Pac-Man World 2, I haven't had that game in years. Hopefully I'll find it again for a good price. I might get the remake of the first game actually, I did replay the PS1 original a while back, but I stopped playing at that temple boss. It was incredibly difficult, but for all the wrong reasons... it was a poorly-designed boss fight where you'd get hit every two seconds with no fault of your own. It does look like the remake fixed that boss though, so that's good.
We do have Netflix here, so it's only a matter of trying to find the time to watch Trolls. I'll let you know what I think.
That's cool, I've not played any of the Wolfenstein games. I did also play a bit of Doom 2016, but I didn't make a lot of progress in it. It got hard quickly for me. A bit odd, because I did finish the 1993 original a while back. No, I didn't play it on a digital camera or an Alarmo, haha. Yeah exactly, plus Rugrats might have been Nickelodeon's most popular show before Spongebob came out. I will admit, I never was too huge into Nicktoons back then - I was a Cartoon Network kid back then - but it is cool you still put it on from time to time.
Yeah, a Mario Party round can take quite a bit of time. If it helps to know, I do either 10 or 15 turns. The lowest amount of turns you can do is 10, so we can do that much if we do play.
@Pastellioli Oh gotcha, does that happen often during online? I sometimes see other players get disconnected during Splatoon matches. In the case of Splatoon 3, if somebody DCs within the first minute, the entire match ends in a draw. That also happens to me sometimes.
I think you're right on a more recent Digimon game, I've actually seen a friend's livestream of it. I forgot the name of that game though. I'm really only familiar with the anime series itself. I did play a few Naruto-themed games however, since my brother was huge into Naruto when it came out here in the US.

Ask if you want to be Switch friends with me, but I'd like to know you first. Thanks! ❤️
@MarioVillager92 The disconnecting happens a lot online when I play. Sometimes people disconnect if it’s a song they don’t like hearing or dislike playing, but I also think some people disconnect on accident. The game sometimes has bad internet connection (coming from how the global version supports about 130 countries, from what I read) and the WiFi in other places can be spotty, so people disbanding because of that I can understand. But there are times I can tell when someone intentionally disconnects, because when the game selects a song that someone in the group dislikes (e.g. because it’s hard to play, is boring to play, or is “too” popular) I immediately get a message saying the group disbanded. The fanbase for that game is big (both in Japan and America) and there are songs that are popular and they like to hear and play more than others. The most popular songs are well-known or iconic songs or songs associated with in-game bands that are fan favorites, one example coming to my mind is Nightcord at 25:00, which has the most fans out of all the six groups in the game.
Whenever I have to play a song I don’t like playing, I stay anyway and try my best to play it, but again, there are times I unintentionally disconnected, as my phone has this bar thing that appears when I flick some of the notes on screen and it opens up a tab on accident, and having the tab pulled down has disconnected me from matches. However, they temporarily ban players from playing online if they keep doing it.
I can remember that new draw thing they put in Splatoon 3 whenever someone disconnected from the match as soon as it started. The Splatoon games have had a lot of issues with player disconnects and I do think that new approach they took to the disconnects in 3 is good, because I did have some notable issues with them in 2; I was playing a full Rainmaker match in 2 once, but for some reason, about 5 players disconnected midway through the match (two teammates and three enemies) so it was just me, another teammate, and an enemy E-liter, and I can’t imagine how much it stunk for the remaining player on the opposing side. I thought it was just my WiFi being bad but I was still able to play normally after a majority of the players disconnected, so it could be possible it maybe could have been from the game itself or on someone else’s end, but I know the disconnects were unintentional since they occurred simultaneously. Usually, a sign that the game disconnects thanks to my occasionally terrible WiFi is if the game slows down, all other players vanishing, and my player character being unable to move for a few seconds with that unstable WiFi message onscreen. I am glad that Nintendo became more aware of common issues with the internet in the games and is trying to make online play more fair.
I don’t really play games based on manga or anime, the only exception to that being a fighting game called JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R on the Xbox when it was on Game Pass for a bit. I did like that one, even though I’m pretty bad at playing traditional fighting games and the fact I have not read the manga and have only watched the first season of the JoJo anime and am pretty far behind on the story. I think my brother had some Dragon Ball games on the PS4 and I did play a few of them with him, but he absolutely destroyed me when I played those with him lol. I also remember Jump Force being offered for free with a PlayStation Now sub, and me and him played it just for fun. It wasn’t an amazing game from what we played though.
@Sunsy That is good! Sounds like a good time. I really do anything for Halloween besides relaxing and I don’t dress up for it. I didn’t play anything fitting the Halloween mood (plus I don’t really have any games that are spooky-themed) but it was still a good day for me. I have heard of Vampire Survivors since it’s on Game Pass and Pure Xbox made a few articles on it, and I heard it’s super fun. I have played roguelike games, one being Enter The Gungeon.
@Anti-Matter I really liked the artworks you posted online for your birthday and Halloween! I really liked the animals you put in the pictures and how you drew them. I’m a huge fan of drawing cartoony animals.
@Pastellioli I played the original Yo-Kai Watch. That feeling of switching to different games happens to me too. I think I have a bit of a backlog too, I still need to play more of Princess Peach Showtime and Sonic Superstars, maybe I'll give Sonic Superstars ago during the holiday season. I usually Christmas shop early, so I should hopefully have more free time to play it. I usually Christmas shop early just in case there's a chance of snow in December, I don't travel when the roads are covered in snow.
Yeah, that's one I remember mostly because of Ginger at the end of the episode being like "That's because I have quick fingers" or something like that lol. I don't think I've seen that episode. All I remember is watching a bunch of them on a livestream from the official YouTube channel on my Wii U. It was really that long ago, lol. I still use my Wii U for some games, YouTube is no longer on it.
This site does, IIRC, there's usually a blue border around it when they do pop up. It's kind of surprising given it's owned by Nintendo Life, all I could think of is people just go to their platform's website and look at news and articles there. It's easier to go to Nintendo Life as someone who plays Nintendo. The few times I've seen Time Extension they have cool retro articles on it.
Indeed, I really don't like the account requirement. What's the point of making a profile public? To me public means "I can view this, without signing up and requesting a follow." I stopped using Twitter because of how political the place (lack of a better way to describe it) got, so why would I want an account with them again? I like Instagram because it's mostly pictures based on interests I follow, I can post artwork, and my negative experiences been kept to a minimum, mostly someone random commenting on my post then blocking me (why'd you comment to begin with? My friend suspects it's a bot), and someone going "how old are you" with a skull emoji after seeing I liked Trolls (because you have to be a certain age to like something). I'll take a that to a constant bad experience like Twitter.
Sounds like you had a nice relaxing Halloween. Vampire Survivors is fun, I just got it for Switch, but I have played it before on PC and mobile.
@MarioVillager92 Ouch, hope that burn heals. Sounds nice, my Halloween mostly had me wearing a Trolls wig, lol. I also played a few spooky themed games, Vampire Surviors on Switch and Monster Bash on PC.
Indeed, those new tracks had me booting up the game again, and it feels good seeing something once exclusive to Japan in the game worldwide. As someone who likes F-Zero, it's nice to see to see Statellaview stuff get some love. Satellaview has always been a curiosity with me, being someone who loves the history of online gaming.
I always put videos on in the background, especially when doing chores. I like livestreams of people playing games since I can put it on and not need to focus on the video and go on about my chores. During the cold, it was fun watching Mario Party. IIRC the stream set it up so the CPU fights each other, lol.
I think I have my copy of Pac-Man World 2 somewhere. I never played the first one, even though I had access to my brother's PlayStation when I was growing up. I keep forgetting they remade the game too. Wow, a poorly designed boss. This reminds me, I have a copy of Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures on Wii U I never got around to finishing. I did enjoy the game. Odd one too, same scenario as Sonic Boom, they made a cartoon based on a game, then made a game based on that cartoon.
Alrighty, enjoy Trolls whenever you get to see it.
I've mostly played the classic Wolfenstein games, they're good World War II shooters, albeit fictional and not based off actual events. I always love playing id Software shooters. I have Doom 2016 on both Switch and PC (got the PC one for really cheap), and while I like it, I just prefer the classic Doom games more. I want to see Alarmo run Doom, lol. That's cool, I got Cartoon Network later on, I first saw Cartoon Network when their shows were mostly the Hanna-Barbera back catalog, loved Snorks. I did like their other cartoons too, Powerpuff Girls being my favorite.
Sounds like a good idea, didn't really know the game had move limits. I mostly played Super Mario Party's mini-game mode.
@Pastellioli
Thank you. 😃
If you checked my Deviantart account FasciDevVion, you can see tons of my digital artworks with some of my hand drawing pictures over there.
When I played Animal Crossing New Horizons for maintenance, sometimes I like to take certain photoshoot at Harv Island.
Last time I did photoshoot about entering the grave yard forest with Raymond, Marshall and me (as the ghost).
After I took several different photos, I put some dialogues on it then uploaded to social media.
I wonder what kind of the photoshoot ideas I can take.
Any ideas?
@Sunsy
Thank you. 😀
Btw, speaking about Yokai Watch, the first game was the only version you will get a lot of money from the battle with higher rank Yokai (A to S) as your enemies than the second and third games. If you explore the abandoned hospital at night, one battle with Yokai over there can give you $15.00 to $25.00 compared with second and third games that will give you under $10.00
I personally prefer Yokai Watch than Pokemon for having more humanoid looking creatures and my favorite Yokai are Reuknight (Yokai Watch 1), Sergeant Burly (Yokai Watch 2) & Slugger (Yokai Watch 3).
Recently I played the games by Outright Games on PS5 such as Bluey, Barbie Project Friendship and Ice Age Scrat Nutty Adventure.
Bluey was cute, Barbie Project Friendship was the first Barbie game on PS5, Ice Age on PS5 got 4K + 60 fps performance.
I'm glad some of the games by Outright Games got re-release version again on PS5 with better performance and the latest update inside the disc.
Oh, also.
Have you already know there will be a new Rhythm game with Disney Music on Switch?
The game was Disney Music Parade, with gameplay exactly like Groove Coaster by Taito.
Nintendolife have already posted that article about Disney Music Parade.
@Pastellioli Exactly; for me, the Funko eyes are the main issue and don't work for 99% of the characters. And I'm not a fan of the general Funko look. I can appreciate that many people do like them, and that's fine. They just aren't for me lol. I have been tempted by First 4 Figures a couple times, but those are expensive enough that I convince myself not to buy them. I buy amiibo mostly for display reasons, and only ones I really like. I do occasionally use them for games.
I'm sure Yo-Kai Watch Wibble-Wobble was fun. I never picked it up since matching puzzle games are everywhere, so I didn't feel like it offered anything new enough to bother downloading. I know a lot of the freemium mobile games get a lot of flack, but some are high quality. A few that can be bought outright, and classic games that have decent mobile ports, can be really good too. I don't typically game on mobile outside of Pokemon Go - and I've never spent a cent in that game - but I do have a small handful of quality mobile experiences. I recently learned Suika Game has a mobile port and bought it for $0.99 + tax by using a coupon. Those types of time waster games are more suited for mobile IMO. I prefer to use consoles for deeper experiences.
I am sorry that your 2DS volume slider broke. Please do what you can to protect your ears since hearing loss is no joke. Unfortunately, I can't really recommend a fix unless you know of somewhere near you that knows how to repair the system.
@Mariotag Ah, so a standard boss arena mode then. Still sounds pretty fun overall. Sorry, that was a major typo since I was on my phone at the time. It was supposed to be "else".
Interesting info about those two different writers for Digimon. Overall I think both seasons 2 and 3 turned out really well despite all that. Though it would've been great to see more about the Dark Ocean. I do remember the revisits in 2, kind of figured there's something in Tri (I'll get to these movies eventually lol), but had no idea the concept was revisited in Ghost Game. Yep, Takers is definitely my favorite. I'll be honest...I had no idea there was a planned Takers sequel. But maybe that's for the best.
Yep, as explained above, Funkos definitely are NOT my cup of tea. XD
@Sunsy Well, whatever happened during that sick period, it sounds like you were well looked after. That Pokemon shirt sounds pretty neat too.
Yeah, someone in college uploaded Typing of the Dead to a few campus computers in one of the labs - with the instructor's permission, I might add. XD The voice acting is very campy, but it was pretty fun. I think I only played on normal difficulty though. I've heard of Monster Bash and that it's a good time, though I've not played it either. I also played Vampire Survivors via the NSO trial and surprisingly enjoyed it. Didn't buy the game, but it was a fun time after I started unlocking more power ups. I hope you have a fun time with it! It isn't expensive by any means, so it's possible I'll pick up Vampire Survivors when I do truly have the desire.
Breaking this into two posts since the other was getting rather long.
@MarioVillager92 Sorry to see you burned yourself. I hope that is healing well. I ended up seeing Hocus Pocus for the first time ever this past week! The Nightmare Before Christmas is an excellent movie too. So excellent that I own the DVD.
Glad your passion project is going well. I... actually haven't touched Echoes of Wisdom for about a week or two since I've been in a gaming funk. Which I think I'm finally pulling out of. I hope you're enjoying Banjo-Tooie and Super Mario Party Jamboree! The latter seems to be reviewing pretty well and has some fun modes from what I've seen.
No problem. It's always good to know your limits...though trying to figure out exactly where they are is part of the fun sometimes. For me, it's those crazy fast spinning rides. They really mess with my equilibrium.
I did ask about that kitten, and he/she is doing well last I heard. The cat has clicked well with the owner's dogs it sounds like. Cosmic Mario's laugh = still very creepy. XD
Nice, glad to hear you enjoy them. I haven't played the Bluey game, but I have seen the show. Honestly, really good kids show. Watched some episodes when I had Disney+ (it's on Disney in the US, not sure where else in the world it's broadcasted).
I think I saw the trailer to that awhile back when it was recommended on YouTube. Not sure if it's coming out to the US since it was a Japanese trailer I saw of that game.
@Tyranexx I was. I did get a cool shirt out of it.
Cool. Also, Typing of the Dead is the same game as House of the Dead 2, only difference is typing instead of light guns. Indeed the voice acting is campy, but that's what I like about it too. The House of the Dead series feels like a really poorly acted horror movie at times, and it's kind of the charm of it to me. Monster Bash is fun, but also hard even on easy. Had to use the included hint and cheat sheet (back in the old shareware days, Apogee actually gave you a cheat with the registered versions, the catch, the cheat wouldn't work on the shareware) to help me with the game, but it's a good DOS platformer. Glad you had fun with Vampire Survivors and hope you enjoy it when you get around to picking it up. The upgrades really make the game. I had fun standing still after two garlic upgrades and having bats walk right into me, lol.
