yo nintendo life, anyway we can maybe get you guys to make us some car decals? would love to show my love for the site everywhere i go! a Yoshi themed one would be AMAZIN! (b ' ' )b

I typically rely on those things when deciding what games to buy too, though I'm not adverse to trying a demo if I'm on the fence. Which describes PPS well. It looked like a mix of Wario Land and Kirby, and I wasn't far off the mark. I enjoy both those franchises, though we're more than overdue for a Wario Land titles; the last one was Shake It/The Shake Dimension on Wii. I already own both M&L: Dream Team and Paper Jam luckily, so it's only a matter of time on when I get to those. I've heard DT is decent, PJ seems more mixed.

Discussing different experiences, particularly around similar time periods in our lives, can be very interesting and can help ourselves and others learn and grow. I admittedly didn't interact with too many in the grades below, though that wasn't for lack of trying; I do remember some younger students fondly. I went to quite a small high school, even if it was a public one. My grade was the smallest at the time. I graduated with a class of 30. XD

Busy past couple of days and a nice way to end last week. On Friday, my friend wanted to celebrate my birthday, albeit days later. We had cake, went to the arcade (played a ton of Cruis'n Blast), had dinner out, and he even surprised me with some Trolls stuff. As for this week, mostly errands and chores.

Yeah, my copy had no rating on the box, even though it was on the cart itself. Interesting, so I'm guessing games in the Asia region are different than the Southeast Asia region? Mine says "Middle East, Southeast Asia, Official Product" in green, blue, and grey on back, which is MDE as you pointed out in the Peach thread.

Sometimes that does happen, even happens with anime over here when it's subbed.

Hope you feel better.

Yeah, I think that's how I remember it. I once played it with a friend before he moved, then months later he got a Wii U and Splatoon and we played it online.

Indeed, and as mentioned above, my friend and I celebrated on Friday when he was free. Indeed, I was surprised to find a men's Strawberry Shortcake shirt. I got it as a gift, but I saw it at Target in the men's department of all places a few months ago. I didn't even know there was a first one. Though, the Princess Peach Showtime box looks cleaner without the ESRB rating.

Ok, as I said, I really hope you feel better soon.

I think I did that with Call of Duty. I played with a Wii Remote and Nunchuk (yeah, I was that guy, who played COD with the Wii Remote and Nunchuk), and used the Wii U gamepad as a map, which is something the other console versions of COD did not do. It was kinda unique to the Wii U.

Not really a story mode, just the same game as the online mode, just alone. Both offline and online mode in PSO did the same story. Now that's weird, I have another weird sound quirk. Sega Smash Pack on Dreamcast, Sonic 1 sounds like an 8-bit game, lol. The sound sounds so 8-bit with the emulation Sega used on it.

I could imagine how stressful it would be.

It even gave me my gold coins from My Nintendo too, and I read online games from other regions won't let you redeem them unless you redeem it on a system from that region. I'm the same way, I buy games to play them. While my older games do sit on their shelves, I still do find time to play them occasionally too. I'm glad it's a legit copy too, and I am enjoying it, honestly, I really liked the one Detective Peach level I did.

Wow, now that's a question to ask. I use to have a bunk bed when I was little, but I don't think anyone shook it, no one wanted to sleep on the top bunk. My dad ended up sawing it into two twin beds, since it was just wood with no fancy design. The source of the earthquake I had was more north where I live, and nowhere near me, still amazing to feel something coming from that far away.

For travel, I have a Splatoon 2 case that makes it easy to carry. Though I did see some Princess Peach Showtime themed case online that look tempting. If you take it traveling, hoping for the best with it. That I do, I do like using Lyft, I'll sometimes use it to go shopping for something fun, or go to a movie, which I did twice with Trolls Band Together. The other three times was with my friend.

@Papasears1982 I would recommend you use the suggestions thread or the contact form. The higher ups don’t really visit this thread that often.

@Eel ty!

@Tyranexx I know you've mentioned this to Anti-Matter, but I've also been trying to cut down on buying games. My backlog's big enough as it is anyway, lol, and I've also been saving up for a trip. Hmm... I wonder if my backlog, the way it is, is making me less into gaming? I get overwhelmed very easily, and I think the way most modern games are made are playing a part as well. I do still like Nintendo's games, though. But what do you think? Am I getting less into games now? (Everyone else can pitch in their thoughts as well.) On Discord, gotcha. I use it on my phone quite a bit as well.

My high school didn't have a lot of classes I was too interested in either. I think there was like two computer classes they had? A good chunk of them were basic stuff like math/algebra, history, and science. Oh, no! I'm so sorry to hear about that friend of yours! Most of the jerks I've dealt with were in middle/high school, and even online, and they did bring me down quite a bit. One of my home room teachers wasn't great, either. So yeah, as a result, I don't look back at those days too fondly. My early elementary school and my college days were better, too. Absolutely... self-love does take a lot of practice and patience, and I can struggle with it sometimes. Thanks bud. Yeah, I'm surely not alone... negative thoughts are difficult to deal with for sure. Hate when those happen to me.

I did actually consider getting a PS4 as well, but ultimately decided against it. Just because most of its exclusives didn't really appeal to me. I did want Crash Bandicoot: N-Sane Trilogy, which I ended up getting from Steam instead. Same here, Nintendo and PC are enough to keep me entertained as well, in terms of modern games at least. Yeah... I know a lot of people like the newer PlayStation exclusives, and that's OK, but they just aren't for me. All righty, that's cool. I think I'd like the Ys games quite a bit. Just gotta find the right time to play them, lol.

@Sunsy Sounds like a good Friday you've had. Still haven't played Cruis'n Blast, but I would like to at some point. Kinda wanna wait for a sale though.

Also, thank you. I'm getting a little better. Maybe I get too depressed at times, I think that's what the problem was... and I can be hard on myself as well. Something to work on, I guess.

That's awesome. I got into Splatoon kinda late... I wish I got into it the year it came out on the Wii U. It might be because I wasn't in the mood for playing shooters at the time.

Oh that's nice. Yeah, the original Mario Kart Arcade GP from 2005 was the one I played. It had a similar graphical style to Mario Kart: Double Dash, and it borrows that game's sound effects too, such as the starting countdown and the item roulette. It controls very differently from the console games, and only a few items appear in each individual race, but I still had fun with it. I played that in my local arcade that also has a bunch of other retro arcade games.

That's cool. Pikmin 3 also had a control scheme that let you use the GamePad's touch screen to throw Pikmin, but that was from a later update. Didn't know that Call of Duty did the same thing that Pikmin 3 did, I never got into the CoD games. But that control scheme is kinda neat.

Ohhh, gotcha, that makes sense. I remember seeing videos of Sega Smash Pack as well... kinda weird that those Sega Genesis games sound like NES games on that collection.

Got to play more of Peach Showtime recently by the way, including that Detective Peach level. That level was surprisingly hard for me, lol.

@ThatZeldaNerd Yeah, it was pretty good! Mucktorok was such a goofy design

Guys wish me luck. About to start chem test💪🏼

Good luck!

@ThatZeldaNerd Best of luck! You got this!

@MarioVillager92 thank u!! 🤗

@ThatZeldaNerd Anytime! Hope it went well if you're done.

This just in: kitsune are awesome creatures.

Almost as good an tanuki

Spiritually, I'm part kitsune.

I have a Pen.
I have Pineapple.
Ugh...!
Pineapple Pen

Penapple?

@Anti-Matter I have a Pokemon, I have Pen, Pokemon Pen

Sometimes I'm confusing myself with my capacity to pick up games without even looking at demos. I did it with FF7 Rebirth, I deliberately didn't get the demo, which was pretty meaty as it turns out (it covered two chapters of the game) and enjoyed it in my own time when I got the game at launch. With games from certain series, like FF, Persona, XC and anything Nintendo, you just know the quality is up to standard, and so I know that I don't need to. Definitely recommend DT when you can, that game's definitely the better of the two, maybe in the whole series. I liked Paper Jam when I played it ages ago but it had a very boring story and combat was too easy, DT ticked all the boxes.

Same here, I had a very small graduating class too, it was 35, which is tiny compared to what I used to have before that. Meant that if you didn't make friends in certain groups it was more or less pointless, not that it killed my mood.

Whenever I write a story based on "Kid Icarus: Uprising", I have a habit of making the characters far, FAR nicer than their canon selves.

What can I say? I'm too nice.
