Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (January 4th)

I want to get my fire badge in Shield after work today. I only play in brief spurts and spent several hours fishing to get a decent water team.

I also plan to play The Sims 2 or 4. TS3 takes too long to load and was uninstalled when I was forced to reset my laptop (so many downloads lost 😢). I also need to reinstall The Sims: Complete Collection and make it able to run on Windows 10 again.

Re: More Than 40% Of Switch Owners In The US Have Another Video Game System

I have certain games on my laptop (mostly The Sims 1-4, The Sims Medieval, and all the Dragon Age games), but it’s just a normal laptop I bought in 2017. I gave my Wii to my best friend after hacking the Wii U to make it play GameCube. I traded in the DSi after transferring to the 3DS. I lent the GBA SP to a friend and never got it back. The NES died (RIP).

Re: Review: Super Mario World - Phenomenal Platforming Perfection

I didn’t have a SNES, but this was my first GBA game and it was my favorite. It accidentally got ruined while I was doing laundry, so I bought it on the Wii VC (I was disappointed by the lack of an intro and the fact that I couldn’t be Luigi, but still brilliant). I now have it (both SNES and GBA) on the Wii U VC. I have Super Mario All-Stars + Super Mario World on the SNES Classic.

Re: Walmart Appears To Break Yet Another Street Date As Unreleased amiibo Appear In Store

I work at a Walmart. A few days before the NES Classic was re-released I saw them out on the shelves. I told the associate working back there that the release date was supposed to be the 29th and had him try to check it out for me to be sure. It couldn’t be bought and I was right about the release date, so I told management they needed to get the product (ended up explaining what exactly it was multiple times) off the shelf ASAP or someone who isn’t ME would try to buy them and the store would have a mess. They were removed immediately and I made sure the night shift manager knew so there wouldn’t be a repeat offense.

A few days later I bought it for real on the proper release date then I bought a second one as an anniversary gift for my sister and brother-in-law.
