Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

These look amazing

@Pastellioli I did read your whole reply, but I couldn't really add to some things from your last post. Plus I got a bit burnt out from those longer replies I did in this thread, lol... so I kind of want to make my posts short and sweet. You didn't do anything wrong, just so you know.

Yep, roller coasters are incredibly fast for sure. I do get the appeal of them, I do know someone on the Nintendo Life community who enjoys them actually, they're just not for me. That's cool, I've finished Dark Moon on the 3DS years ago and I do remember liking it. Out of all the classic game apps on NSO, I've played the SNES, N64, and GBA the most.

@JaxonH Late reply, but I love those pics you took! Thanks for sharing with us.

@CaleBoi25 Great watercolor pics! I like the shadows you've done on the sushi one.

@D-Star92,

"Yep, roller coasters are incredibly fast for sure. I do get the appeal of them, I do know someone on the Nintendo Life community who enjoys them actually, they're just not for me."

They aren't for me either, friend 😉. I've only ever ridden ones that are classified as "kiddy" at Disney World and Cedar Point, and not often either. This is literally me when I'm riding a kiddy coaster:

Video games over roller coasters any day of the week.

Also, @CaleBoi25, I love those pictures you made too. I couldn't draw something like that to save my life 😅.

@Nep-Nep-Freak Yeah, I've been on a full-fledged wooden roller coaster when I was 7 or 8, and I hated it. It turned me away from amusement parks for the longest time, actually. I don't mind visiting them now, I just can't go on anything too extreme since I'm very sensitive to speed and heights.

@D-Star92 I’ll just kept my replies here shorter then, already had a feeling they were too long! If I am being honest, I also am getting burnt out from reading and typing long replies as well…I’ll just drop some of the topics I mentioned in my last reply and only reply to a few.

Yeah, I do get why roller coasters are appealing, it’s exciting to go at such a fast speed, but I honestly wouldn’t ever wanna ride one. If I remember, isn’t there some park ride where you sit strapped onto this seat that goes high and then drops down? I also am kind of afraid of those too like roller coasters.

Yeah, it’s been a while since I played Dark Moon (or any 3DS game really) but I really liked that one. I played the SNES and N64 games the most on NSO. Can’t really remember what my most played titles were, but I recall the Donkey Kong Country games being my most played on the SNES. Banjo-Kazooie was my most played on the N64 app, unsurprisingly!

@Nep-Nep-Freak @Eel @D-Star92 Thank you all! 💚

Also, @/NepNep, Have you ever heard about the "conspiracy" about the screaming sheep? 👀 Basically, it's a goat, not a sheep, and it's a royalty-free sound effect layered on top! The more you know, and all that.

@Pastellioli All righty. Yeah... I don't think I want to go on one again, lol. I kind of regret going on one at such a young age... really wish I hadn't thought of going on that ride and went on something else instead. I know it was years ago, but I'm still upset about that to this day. It turned me away from theme parks back then. I know what kind of ride you're talking about, those tower rides. Knoebels, a park that I visited, has one. I didn't go on one because of how scary they look to me.

Gotcha, I played the DKC games quite a lot on NSO as well... same with the Mario games of course. If I recall correctly, Super Mario 64 was my most played N64 game on NSO. I'm thinking of playing through Paper Mario as well... it's been ages since I last played it.

@CaleBoi25 You're welcome. I'll let you folks know when I do get a watercolor set... hopefully I'll make a good piece from it!

I watched that Jaiden Animation video about how modern tech and the like has become too obnoxious and its made me think. Among my family, I think I'm considered the most tech knowledgeable person, but while that's true, I'm also disinterested in most newer tech. I only got a smart phone out of necessity, eventually, I don't get into streaming services most times, I don't pay attention to the newest tech too often outside of gaming (and even there I'm increasingly avoiding buying new systems or games). I don't know what new tech I'd even need or especially want anymore, and with the way every other trend seems like a giant scam nowadays, I feel that's barely even subjective, I'm just correct.

A lot of its also just like now that I have money earned and to worry about, I don't wanna spend it most times. I will hoard my "wealth" like a dragon, especially since I do not trust anything will be affordable for most people in the relative near future.

@kkslider5552000 i got a cheap mp3 player that holds all my music on it. It works like an ipod Classic too!

@SegaDude113 I wish I still had my old MP3 player, but it broke like 2 years in for some reason.

I have an iPod shuffle (the little square one) that still works and I treat it like a museum treasure.

The last survivor of a bygone era.

@kkslider5552000 I recently upgraded from a flip phone to a smartphone, and while I do like some aspects of it... I'll be honest, it wasn't worth it. I'm a few months in and already considering going back.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone who celebrates it... I hope you all have a lovely day whether you celebrate it or not.

I will say it as well... happy Thanksgiving! My family will be going to my grandma's house for a Thanksgiving dinner this afternoon.

🦃🍞🥔🥧

Happy Thanksgiving to all the US folk here 🥧

Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow Americans, and to everyone here (regardless of nationality), I am thankful for you! Y'all make this a great site!

Happy Thanksgiving to anyone celebrating out there! Hope you're all having a good day today.

Also, Mario and Pac-Man in the parade today!

@Sunsy I did see Mario in the Thanksgiving Day Parade! I love how he made an appearance in it. I hope you've had a good one as well. Did quite a lot of cooking today.

Anyone else already set up for Christmas? My family set up the (fake) tree the day after Thanksgiving, which is a family tradition. A couple of months ago, I got 4 keychains imported from another country that are based off of the main characters in Hyperdimension Neptunia, and I turned those into makeshift ornaments 🤣. I like seeing some of my favorite video game characters on the tree.

I will be busy in front of my laptop to finish my Calendar 2026 project during December 2025.
I have a deadline to finish my calendar project before 28 December 2025.
